Candidates for Council To Present Platforms At Community Forums

As the June 4 primary election approaches, the race for two seats on Princeton Council is heating up. Members of the community can hear from registered candidates Tim Quinn (incumbent), Mia Sacks, Michelle Pirone Lambros, and Adam Bierman at two forums — one tonight, Wednesday, May 1, at 7 p.m. in Witherspoon Hall; the other Saturday, May 4, 9:30 a.m. at the First Baptist Church on Green Street. The May 1 event is sponsored by the League of Women Voters and Princeton Community Television, and will focus on questions taken from the audience. A video of the proceedings will be posted at lwvprinceton.org and on VOTE411.org, and rebroadcast on the Princeton Community Television channel. The Saturday morning forum is sponsored by the Witherspoon-Jackson Neighborhood Association. Candidates will be asked to address issues and identify their priorities and solutions to problems both specific to the WitherspoonJackson neighborhood and relevant to other neighborhoods and segments of the community. This past March, the Princeton Community Democratic Association (PCDO) voted to support, but not endorse, Sacks, Quinn, and Lambros. With 165 ballots cast and voters’ first and second choices ranked equally, Sacks received 97 first and second rank votes (59 percent), Quinn 95 votes (58 percent), and Lambros 66 votes (40 percent). Sixty percent was required to win PCDO endorsement, 40 percent for support. A fourth Democratic candidate, Adam Bierman, will also be running in the June 4 primary, but declined to participate in the endorsement process because of the dues requirement ($5-$15) to vote. “There is a need to get money out of the process,” he wrote in a letter to Town Topics at the time. At a subsequent meeting of the elected members of the Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee, 32 committee members representing the 22 voting districts of Princeton, also voting with a ranked voting system, voted to recommend to the chair of the Mercer County Democratic Committee the following ballot order in the Democratic column on the June primary ballot: Quinn, with Continued on Page 9

Composting Program May Be Restarting Soon After a few setbacks that brought the Curbside Organic Program to a temporary suspension in February, local residents and public officials are determined to restart Princeton’s composting program as soon as possible. “We’re working on an exciting opportunity that could have the Curbside Composting Program up and running locally before year’s end,” said Princeton Mayor Liz Lempert at a community meeting attended by more than 100 residents at the municipal building Monday night. “We are also looking at near-term options that could be ready as early as this summer,

and we are working towards a goal of making this service free.” Among the problems cited by Lempert last January in announcing the suspension of the program after seven years in operation were failures by Solterra, the solid waste contractor, to make timely required pickups, and periodic failures to take the food waste to a farm for composting, delivering it instead to a landfill. Compounding the problem, when the town sought new bids for waste hauling and disposal, the only bidder was the company already being used and the bid was double the previous price.

In her January announcement, Lempert promised “to bring the program back stronger than ever. This is an important program and we are committed to taking the steps to make it successful. We ask our current participants to stay engaged with us while we develop the right solution for Princeton.” The audience filling the meeting room Monday reflected Lempert’s commitment and determination to make the organic waste program work effectively. As one resident said, reporting on the three months since the suspension of the program, “We’ve more than doubled our Continued on Page 7

PHS Students, Alumni Give Voice to Concerns At “See Me, Hear Me”

COMMUNIVERSITY 2019: Tens of thousands of people attended the 49th Communiversity ArtsFest on Sunday afternoon in downtown Princeton . Presented by the Arts Council of Princeton, the annual event featured more than 225 booths and a wide variety of art, crafts, culinary delights, and live entertainment . Festivalgoers share their favorite things about Communiversity in this week’s Town Talk on page 6 . (Photo by Charles R. Plohn)

For several hours at Princeton High School last Saturday, April 27, students — current and past — gave voice to their thoughts, feelings, and concerns while teachers, parents, administrators, and other adults listened at the third annual “See Me, Hear Me” conference, titled “The Power of the Student Voice; Our Stories, Our Voices.” Hosted by the Minority Student Achievement Network (MSAN) and Pride, Unity, Leadership, Sisterhood, Esteem (PULSE), under the guidance of Social Worker and Student and Family Services Coordinator Lenora Keel, the conference brought together about 50 participants for a day of discussions on current topics that impact students in this district. “This was intended to be about the students’ voices, to have adults sit and listen to what the students have to say,” said Keel. “We felt the power of the students. It was their voices and their stories. This provided a strong picture of what it’s like to be a minority student at Princeton High School. Adults need to listen more.” In written remarks on the conference, Keel added, “The students worked together to further their agenda of understanding, respecting, and uplifting persons in all ethnic, cultural, and gender groups. Some of the topics included the importance of the student voice as it relates to social justice, student/teacher relationships, implicit bias, and micro/macro aggressions faced on a daily basis by many of these students.” Continued on Page 8

Cranbury Inn Restaurant A Mother’s Letter

My Dearest Family,

I want to thank all of you for the lovely time shared at the Cranbury Inn Restaurant on Mother’s Day, May 12, 2019. Your choice of such a beautiful Inn with its early American charm and ambiance, located in historic Cranbury was perfect! All of our food was beautifully presented and the service was excellent. I personally have never had such a wonderfaul Champagne Brunch (10:30am-2pm). I later heard from Aunt Alice that the Inn’s special Dinner Buffet (3pm-6pm) was superb. The staff and management as usual were attentive to our every need. This day will always be remembered. Thank you again for your love! Love, Mom

Guests are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch or snack. At 2 p.m., a screening of Farming in New Jersey’s Millstone Valley: Past and Present will take place in the Wojciechowicz Barn. The 35-minute video documentary, produced by the Millstone River Valley Preservation Coalition of Rocky Hill (MVP) in association with the Van Harlingen Historical Society of Montgomery, describes the “We have this gorgeous, 300-year agricultural history www.princetonmagazinestore.com 21-bed organic garden with Continued on Next Page raised beds that produce quite a bounty each year that we donate to Cornerstone Community Kitchen,” said Izzy Kasdin, the HSP’s exe cut ive d ire c tor. “ We have had it for awhile, but it didn’t feel like a heritagerich thing.” During the recent installation of interpretive signage at the farm, Kasdin and her colleagues decided to take the concept further. “We were interested in transforming the farmstead into a history campus museum, with historical context inside and out,” she said. “We thought that instead of planting a reproduced kitchen garden from the past, we would create something a little more metaphorical, if you will. Each bed will grow a crop that will be the launching pad for a story, and those stories will be accessible on our app.” So tomatoes, for instance, will tell the story of the canning industry. Other produce-inspired topics include farm labor, the women’s land army during World War I, and social welfare in the 19th century. “Agriculture is core to the historical identity of Princeton, and sparks important discussion about land use, food security, and WHETHER THEY ARE RULING THE KINGDOM the env ironment today,” OR PROTECTING THE GALAXY Kasdin said in a press release. “We’re thrilled to have OUR MOMS ARE S U P E R ! the opportunity to tell those stories here at Updike FarmBENEFITS THE • SHOPPING INCENTIVES & PROMOTIONS stead, in view of one of the • MEET YOUR FAVORITE PRINCESSES last remaining intact historic farms in Princeton.” AND SUPERHEROES PROVIDED BY THE MERCER COUNTY CHAPTER OF THE SUNSHINE FOUNDATION Support from the Church & Dwight Employee Giving • FIRST 200 AT CHECK-IN RECEIVE PALMER Fund was instrumental in SQUARE SHOPPING BAG! the garden’s transformation.

MVP Coalition president Brad Fay will introduce the film, and a panel discussion will follow featuring Pam Mount of Terhune Orchards; Tessa Lowinske Desmond, a Princeton University research scholar in the Program in American Studies; and Fay. The Wojciechowicz Barn was renovated by Baxter Construction in 2017, and the firm recently won the National Contractor of the Year Award in Commercial Specialty from the National Association of the Remodeling Industry for the project. The barn was built by the Updike family in 1892, after they moved to the 200-acre farm. Nearly all of the wood was preserved during the renovation. The HSP moved from Bainbridge House on Nassau Street to the farm in 2014. Though May 19 is early in growing season and the garden won’t be in full bloom, Kasdin is looking forward to launching the new interpretive content and familiarizing the public with the site. “We’re very excited about this opportunity to capture all of these different stories,” she said. “Agriculture is such a big part of Princeton’s historical identity.” —Anne Levin

Question of the Week:

“What is your favorite part of Communiversity?” (Asked Sunday at Communiversity ArtsFest) (Photos by Charles R. Plohn)

Neil: “The food! We had the falafel, and we tried the paella and some Jammin’ Crepes. I got a couple of records from the Princeton Record Exchange — I found an original Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band record, which is an amazing find.” Rose: “I love the crafts and the stores. There’s a little bit of everything, like flowers, the crafts, clothes, jewelry, and artisan goodies like soaps. I love coming here every year.” —Neil and Rose Omgozo, Franklin Township

Benjamin: “My favorite things today were the band and the cotton candy.” Lasse: “My favorite thing is all of the people that come out.” —Benjamin Adler and Lasse Herslov, both of Princeton

Carlos: “I like to hear the musicians – they have many different kinds. I especially liked watching the drummers today.” Aura: “I like to see everybody, the children and everybody together, and the dogs. I love the food, I love everything about today. We have been coming to Communiversity for many years.” —Carlos Palacios and Aura Sandoval, both of Princeton

Vinutah: “The robotics was awesome. The Princeton Charter School was doing the exhibit. The University also had an amazing electromagnetics field display on campus.” Ishaan: “I like the robotics. I also liked the spinning wheel when the police asked us how to protect ourselves.” —Vinutah and Ishaan Veeram, Montgomery

Eden: “We sold lemonade to raise money for Princeton Nursery School. I also loved the face painting and the cotton candy.” Lena: “I love that we get to make the colored sand in bottles. When you take the sand out of the bottles it is fairy dust, and you throw it up in the air and make a wish and it comes true.” Tyson: “The variety of stuff is fantastic — great stores, great food. It is our first time and we just absolutely loved it.” —Eden, Lena, and Tyson Barber, Yardley, Pa.

that, after initial costs, “We would like to see the program work so that ultimately it pays for itself.” Participation in the followup question-and-answer session was widespread, with all speakers sharing the public officials’ eagerness to see Princeton make its composting program work. In her closing comments Lempert thanked everybody in the audience for their commitment, and she thanked Wasserman and Hough for leading the research of possibilities for moving forward. “We’re all invested in this,” she said. “In the United States we’re part of a community of many towns and cities trying to work this out. Other places are looking to us for answers.” Princeton was the first town in the state to adopt a food waste program. Lawrenceville and Lambertville and others now have programs. The municipality will present a food waste solutions panel for further discussion at Mountain Lakes House off Mountain Road from 10 to 11:30 a.m. this Saturday, May 4. —Donald Gilpin

outflow to the landfill. We sorely need the compost program.” Sustainable Princeton President Matt Wasserman and Municipal Infrastructure and Operations Director Bob Hough led the presentation and discussion, focusing on “what we’ve learned and what some of our options are.” Public officials plan to make a decision by June or July for both short-term and longerterm composting plans. Hough noted that the town is evaluating doing the hauling itself with pickups likely in “zones,” similar to current trash pickup. The public works committee has reacted favorably to this idea with a potential site for composting within the municipal boundaries. The lead site for the composting operation currently is at the Department of Public Works River Road facility. “Looks like a win-win situation for the town,” Hough said. Wasserman described some of the options for equipment, including a biodigester, currently owned by MetLife; a rocket composter, that at

$650,000 seems too pricey; windrow composting, in collaboration with Double Brook Farm and Cherry Valley Cooperative; and the Bokashi method, which has been used by AgriArk in Hopewell and the Princeton University eating clubs. Lempert described MetLife’s biodigester as “potentially a game changer, but we still need to do some due diligence to ensure it’s the right solution for Princeton.” Toters — large plastic containers — “a quick option” that would be placed around town with food waste going to local farms, may be the most efficient choice for the short term, Wasserman suggested. The audience was almost unanimous in agreeing that they would use these bins, and most signified that they would volunteer to oversee the process for two hours a week. Wasserman and Hough went on to mention possible partners, including Sustainable Princeton, Princeton University, and Cherry Valley Cooperative, for advocating the program and educating residents about composting. Hough expressed optimism

“See Me, Hear Me” continued from page one

A panel of four PHS graduates — Breana Newton, class of 2008; Taariq Parker, class of 2010; Jackie Adebayo, class of 2013; and Juan Polanco, class of 2013 — all now in their 20s, opened the conference discussing their recollections of life at PHS and their experiences since. Newton described her unhappiness at PHS and her experience of being discriminated against. Parker talked about the continuation of racist incidents and unjust punishments at PHS and cited the need for stronger support systems for minority students. He also mentioned the importance of finding a champion in your life. Polanco pointed out emotional difficulties in transitioning to college and the importance of health services. “The student panelists were awesome,” Keel observed. The panel discussion was followed by Student Voice presentations by current MSAN students, who had interviewed a wide range of PHS students and presented, with PowerPoint, their thoughts on many different subjects. Some students praised the diversity at PHS and the efforts of teachers and administrators to engage the students and listen. One student who was interviewed praised the wealth of opportunities at PHS, “We have a club for everything in this school,” but stated, “we need to have more face-toface, one-on-one conversations [about race], rather than a big assembly where one person is speaking to 300 or 400 students at a time.” Another student described a positive relationship with

his counselor and an appreciation of the variety of different groups and activities at PHS, but claimed that the social environment was “toxic,” with too much pressure and not enough help from guidance counselors and teachers. A tenth-grade girl observed, “Everybody is quick to assume things about others based on the way they look or the way they talk, or the things that they believe, or the level of education. I feel like everybody is so judgmental in so many ways. It’s not just sexism, classicism, and racism. It’s so many different things. People in Princeton don’t look to the outside world. We live in this bubble of privilege, but not every single part of Princeton has a lot of money.” One junior boy expressed the wish that “there was a stronger relationship between Hispanic and American students,” but noted, “in Princeton I’ve always been treated with respect. In many other places there’s more discrimination and here that isn’t the case for me.” A senior boy stated, “I would like to work on encouraging more black students to take advanced classes, because I tend to be alone for the most part in them. I feel like black students should be informed about the types of courses available to them. Many kids aren’t told they can take these classes and they have to find out by themselves, and at this point it’s too late.” A John Witherspoon Middle

School parent, Jennifer Cohan, who attended the session observed, “‘See Me, Hear Me’ should be heard beyond the walls of PHS on a weekend; it needs to be known by all members of our community. Harm reduction to black and Latinx families needs to be an urgent priority, not only for Princeton Public Schools, but for my fellow white families.” Among the listeners in attendance Saturday were several Board of Education members and a number of high school administrators and teachers. “The conference gave voice to our students at our school,” said Keel. ”I felt like a proud mother hen.” —Donald Gilpin

“Guns Down” Author To Present New Ways to Stop Gun Violence Igor Volsky, author of Guns Down: How to Defeat the NRA and Build a Safer Future with Fewer Guns (2019), will speak on Sunday, May 5, at 2 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Princeton on Cherry Hill Road. Volsky is the co-founder and executive director of Guns Down America, which is dedicated to building a future with fewer guns. Formed in 2016 after a mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, the organization has a new approaches to combating gun violence, creating a ranking system that gives large banks letter grades based mainly on their connections to gun makers and groups like the National Rifle Association (NRA). Volsky, according to an

April 4 New York Times article, said he hoped the grading system would put pressure on banks to support gun control measures in the same way that many companies have taken stands on other social issues. “We have too many guns and they are too easy to get, and that’s in large part because our nation’s largest banks don’t include gun violence prevention in their business decisions,” said Volsky, as quoted in an article, “Is Your Bank Loaded? Find Out and Take Action!” on the Guns Down America website. “Consumers deserve to know when they go to the bank whether the bank on their corner is propping up the gun industry with bailouts and campaign cash.”

As quoted in the New York Times, Volsky pointed out his goal of blocking “the wild, wild West of how gun manufacturers both produce military-style weapons and also how they can market those firearms. We’re not interested in shaming banks or running a campaign focused on how evil they are. Our end goal is to change the way banks make decisions when doing business with the gun industry.” Of the 15 banks receiving grades from Guns Down A m er ic a, s i x, i n clu d i ng Wells Fargo, PNC, JPMorgan Chase, BB&T, TD Bank, and US Bank Corp, received failing grades. Banks lost points on the ranking for their support for the gun industry and its lobby, including loans and credit

to gun companies and donations to lawmakers supported by the NRA. Some banks, according to the New York Times, have disputed the accuracy of the ranking system, and others have already started to revise their policies and practices on firearms. In his book, Volsky presents a plan for citizens to influence their elected officials to control guns more effectively and to make their communities safer. Born in the former Soviet Union, Volsky immigrated to the United States with his family in 1993. He worked for progressive change at the Center for American Progress for many years, and in 2015 made headlines for attacking the hypocrisy of lawmakers who took money from the NRA and sent “thoughts and prayers” after mass shootings. He has appeared on MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, CNBC television, and many radio shows.

EPA Recognizes Rider For Its Green Power

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recognized Rider University this month as an Individual Conference Champion in the 2018-19 College and University Green Power Challenge. Rider currently uses more green power than any of the 11 schools in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. “Rider is committed to leading on sustainability issues in higher education and playing a role in creating a better environmental future for Rider students and all students,” said Melissa Greenberg, the University’s sustainability manager. Since April 2006, EPA’s Green Power Partnership has tracked and recognized the collegiate athletic conferences with the highest combined green power use within the program. The Individual Conference Champion Award recognizes the school that uses the largest amount of green power in a qualifying conference. Rider beat its conference rivals by using nearly 14 million kilowatt-hours of green power, represent ing 65 percent of the school’s annual electricity use. Rider is procuring renewable energy certificates from Renewable Choice Energy. This commitment to green power demonstrates a sustainable choice that helps to reduce the negative health impacts of air emissions including those related to ozone, fine particles, acid rain, and regional haze. According to t he U.S. EPA, Rider’s green power use of nearly 14 million kWh is equivalent to the electricity use of more than 1,000 average American homes annually. The University is regularly recognized for its leadership and achievements in sustainability. The Princeton Review has named Rider among the most environmentally responsible colleges in its Green College Guide for eight straight years. The University is a charter member of Second Nature’s American College and University Presidents’ Carbon Commitment, now called the Carbon Commitment. The initiative focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving carbon neutrality as soon as possible. Since 2007, the University has undertaken an array of initiatives to reduce its carbon emissions, with the goal of being carbon neutral by 2050. In the 2018-19 challenge, the 35 collegiate conferences and 109 schools competing collectively used nearly

3.6 billion kWh of green power. EPA’s Green Power Challenge is open to any collegiate athletic conference in the United States. To qualify, a collegiate athletic conference must include at least two schools that qualify as Green Power Partners, and the conference must collectively use at least 10 million kWh of green power.

Jammin’ Crepes to Run Library Cafe

Jammin’ Crêpes will take over the cafe concession at Princeton Public Library beginning in July, the library announced Monday. “We’re pleased to welcome Jammin’ Community Café to Princeton Public Library and look forward to enjoying the many innovative and locally sourced food options they will offer to library visitors,” said Erica Bess, the library’s assistant director. “Jammin’ Crêpes’ commitment to sustainability and food literacy also align strongly to the library’s mission and we’re looking forward to developing this new partnership while continuing to provide excellent ser v ice to the Princeton community.” Jammin’ Crêpes runs a restaurant at 20 Nassau Street, along with Jammin’ Kitchen Catering and a food truck known as the Flyin’ Crêpeze. The restaurant was selected at the completion of bidding process, which the library is required to conduct every five years. “The Jammin’ Crêpes team is excited to announce news of their new Jammin’ Community Café at Princeton Public Library,” said co-owner Kim Rizk. “In the spirit of strengthening community relationships and supporting the uniqueness of our region, the cafe menu will highlight partnerships with local farms and farmers as well as several local specialty food businesses including Small World Coffee, Tico’s Juice, Lillipies Bakery, and Thomas Sweet Chocolates. The Jammin’ Community Café will offer casual eat-in and take-away options featuring the best local and organic ingredients at their peak of freshness. We look forward to bringing our unique farm fresh fare to The Princeton Public Library.” Bess thanked the Terra Momo Restaurant Group, which has operated the current library cafe, Terra Libri, since 2009. “We’ve been very fortunate to have had the Terra Momo Group provide cafe service to the library for the past 10 years. They have been very generous, civic-minded partners,” she said, “and we have been grateful for their commitment to welcoming our visitors and offering both delicious pastry and food options in addition to enjoyable dining experiences.” Terra Momo Group will close Terra Libri in June. Jammin Community Café is expected to open in midJuly. The library is at 65 Witherspoon Street.

Mercer County Executive Brian M. Hughes has announced a summer youth employment program that will provide economically disadvantaged teens and young adults in the County with paid internships and work readiness training. Mercer County’s Summer Youth Jobs Connection, which is being funded by a grant from the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development’s Office of Youth Programs and coordinated by the Mercer County One-Stop Career Center, will benefit more than 100 youth ages 16 to 24 with summer employment meant to encourage a successful transition to the workforce. “We welcome this opportunity to help young people in our communities acquire skills and knowledge they may need to compete in the job market,” Hughes said. “A paid internship provides valuable work experience, and employers in Mercer County can help build our future workforce by providing summer jobs and developing young talent at no cost to their company.” Summer Youth Jobs Connection is an eight-week program that begins July 8 and concludes August 30. Participation is open to Mercer County youth ages 16 to 24 who meet the criteria. Interns will be paid $10.50 an hour for 24 hours a week, including four hours of work readiness training, and will receive transportation assistance and other support services as appropriate. Target enrollment is a minimum of 110 youth. Interns’ wages and work

readiness training will be paid by Mercer Cou nt y through the funding provided by the state. In addition to learning new skills and being introduced to new career options, interns will be taught the basics of work, including employee benefits, pay schedules, attendance and dress code. Their work experience will also cover soft skills training, such as financial literacy, resume building, entrepreneurship skills, diversity training, and prevention of workplace harassment training. Mercer was one of seven counties, along with the City of Newark, that were awarded funding by the Department of Labor and Workforce Development under its Summer Youth Employment Pilot Program (SYEPP). The areas were selected for the pilot program based on the combined criteria of high rates of youth poverty, youth unemployment and justiceinvolved youth. The SYEPP funding is provided through the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. Employers interested in the Mercer County Summer Youth Jobs Connection program should contact Kassia Bukosky at (609) 989-6066 or kbukosky@mercercounty. org. Youth interested in the program should contact the One-Stop Career Center’s Youth Services Department at (609) 989-6206 or ycc@ mercercounty.org.

The 11-month New Dollar CD special requires a minimum of $25,000 brought to Wells Fargo from sources outside of Wells Fargo Bank N.A., or its affiliates to earn the advertised APY. Public Funds and Wholesale accounts are not eligible for this offer. APY assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Interest is compounded daily. Payment of interest on CDs is based on term: For terms less than 12 months (365 days), interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or at maturity (the end of the term). For terms of 12 months or more, interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A fee for early withdrawal will be imposed and could reduce earnings on this account. Special Rates are applicable to the initial term of the CD only. At maturity, the Special Rate CD will automatically renew for a term of 6 months, at the interest rate and APY in effect for CDs on renewal date not subject to a Special Rate, unless the Bank has notified you otherwise. 1,2. Due to the new money requirement, accounts may only be opened at your local branch. Wells Fargo reserves the right to modify or discontinue the offer at any time without notice. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications.

If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable rate or fee. For bonus interest rates on time accounts, this change will occur upon renewal. If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the remaining unlinked Wells Fargo Portfolio Checking or Wells Fargo Prime Checking account will be converted to another checking product or closed. © 2019 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Princeton Community TV Needs Renewed Public Understanding

To the Editor: I strongly support Michelle Pirone Lambros for Princeton Council, and know you will too, when you learn more about the skills, experience, and vision she will bring to the position. Our Council needs members with proven finance and leadership skills to make enlightened decisions for our town. Michelle’s background in public/private partnerships and finance, and her experience developing multiple businesses, mean she’s a creative doer with the know-how to innovate new solutions to old problems. Michelle’s international experience in building public/ private partnerships is exactly the professional background we want on Council. While living overseas, she developed the concept for a national festival in Kuwait that brought the government, private enterprise, hundreds of vendors, and diverse communities together to showcase cultural heritage. She managed the six-figure budget on time and at cost. Her experience managing infrastructure contracts in the Middle East, and as a serial entrepreneur and small business owner, in both the U.S. and in Mexico, she’s got hard-won experience in profit and loss responsibility for multi-million dollar budgets. She’s honed her negotiating and management skills, which have made her into the collaborative leader we need. Michelle’s also bilingual, and works across languages and cultural differences to find solutions that bring together multiple stakeholders and finding common ground between competing agendas. Michelle knows that one way to keep down property taxes is by shoring up the commercial tax base. She has innovative ideas to ensure that every storefront in Princeton is occupied. Her experience on the Zoning Board has provided her with an understanding of the ordinances we need to keep Princetonians aging in place, and increase the stock of middle-class housing. Her background in public/ private projects has taught her the power of partnerships. She’ll be the voice we need to get a fair deal with the University, and identify innovative ways the municipality and the University can work together to solve social, infrastructure and energy challenges. The Council needs people with a specific type of experience. Good intentions are not enough. At this critical time, we need leaders of a different kind. We need public servants with hard-won practical experience in the private and public sectors. We need officials who have the competence as well as the toughness to secure a fair deal for all of our neighborhoods and each of its citizens. I support Michelle Pirone Lambros for Princeton Council, and I hope you will too. BILL HARE Jefferson Road

To the Editor: Princeton Community TV has put the Public into Public broadcasting for 20 years. It needs renewed public understanding and reasonable municipal support to continue operating. The April 24 PCTV page one story [“Contract Negotiations at an Impasse Between Town and Local TV Station”] left much unexplained. PCTV has developed a robust, vibrant Public Access Channel on Comcast 30 and FIOS 45. It airs 24/7, produces an estimated annual 600 hours of original programming, at least 8,000 hours of curated programs, 2,400 hours of volunteer time and talent, a board, and small paid staff. Programs may be posted on national internet sites for non-cable viewers. It pays the town $18,000 in rent for its basement offices in the Old Borough Hall, which are open to the public 9-9 most weekdays. PCTV welcomes diverse volunteers regardless of their financial means. Together they learn new digital media and broadcast skills, and access studio time to create television shows. They watch their shows air in Princeton and Central New Jersey and potentially the world. How exciting! How empowering! How beneficial to viewers! How proud the municipality should be! The municipality has limited PCTV’s Municipal Channel Comcast 29 and FIOS 44 operations to broadcast and troubleshoot municipal meetings. PCTV original founders, a mayor, council, and citizens, had the vision and commonsense to create an independent 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization, to operate and manage the municipal and public access stations. They decided to fund the stations not with property taxes, but with cable company subscriber’s franchise fees, which companies forward to municipalities. They foresaw that the inevitable evolving technical, creative, and daily public access requirements were not municipal core strengths, but would need sustained municipal financial support and liaison. PCTV accepts that it must accelerate private fundraising. It has already increased membership dues, studio and class fees, and seeks grants. FCC and nonprofit tax law limit commercial activity. Nor do the organizations and citizens appearing on PCTV, like the League of Women Voters, Crossroads of the American Revolution, people making a difference, and municipal department heads and committees have media budgets. As a Princeton resident, taxpayer, PCTV-dues-paying member, volunteer advisor, show producer and financial supporter, I find PCTV to be a bargain for the public. It is a cultural pillar of Princeton. Like the library, Arts Council, Garden Theater, PCTV volunteers serve Princeton residents and others. So please support continued franchise fee financing. Watch PCTV. Participate in PCTV.

that relies on community support, we are so grateful for the collaboration that enabled us to produce another incredibly inspiring event. The students of Princeton University, Mayor Liz Lempert, and our municipality’s incredible police, fire, and facilities departments worked tirelessly to ensure that the day ran smoothly. We couldn’t do it without their continued support. We extend a huge thanks to event coordinator Ann Marciano, who did a superb job handling all the moving parts and addressed issues both big and small with a smile and unending grace. We also thank Arts Council staff and volunteers, whose time and energy helped to pull off Central Jersey’s largest and longest-running cultural event. We receive important financial support from our sponsors. For a complete list, please visit artscouncilofprinceton.org. We especially acknowledge our major sponsors — AT&T, Baker Auto, RWJ/Barnabas Health, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Princeton Garden Theatre, and Palmer Square Management. Communiversity started as the “Art People’s Party” held on the lawn of Nassau Hall in 1970. Fast forward 49 years, and now more than 40,000 attendees join us in downtown Princeton to revel in the arts in all forms. There were live performances on seven stages, plein-air painters, chalk murals created in real time, local artists proudly displaying their work, hands-on activities for attendees big and small, and interactive, collaborative artmaking. Communiversity is a day when we truly realize the potential of building community through the arts, fulfilling the ACP’s driving mission. Of course, at the Arts Council’s Paul Robeson Center for the Arts, we celebrate the arts every day. If you’ve never been to the Robeson Center, or haven’t been in a while, stop by! We’d love to show you all the exciting things happening here year-round. Next year will mark the 50th anniversary of Communiversity! We’ve already started thinking about how to make it particularly special. If you have ideas to enhance the event in recognition of this milestone, drop us a line at info@artscouncilofprinceton.org. And finally, a big thanks to everyone who attended Communiversity. Your enthusiastic participation makes it the lively town-meets-gown event that it is. JIM LEVINE Executive Director Arts Council of Princeton

Alerting Local Small Businesses To Mercer County’s Set-Aside Program

To the Editor: Small-business owners are the backbone of Mercer County’s economy. In fact, Mercer County is home to more than 15,000 small-business firms, according to the County Office of Economic Development. Last summer, the Board of Chosen Freeholders passed Ordinance No. 2018-5 establishing a Set-Aside Program for qualified Mercer County minority-, women-, veteran-owned businesses or small businesses. The ordinance makes it easier for qualified businesses to contract with the County. In recognition of National Small Business Week, May 5-11, 2019, I want to ensure that businesses that may be eligible to participate take full advantage of Mercer County’s Set-Aside Program. The Set-Aside Program reserves 10 percent of the dollar value of all the County’s goods, which total more than $70 million in professional services and construction contracts each year. The program allocates 30 percent for qualified minority-owned businesses; 30 percent for qualified womenowned businesses; 30 percent for qualifed veteran-owned businesses; and 10 percent for small businesses, with an estimated $7 million worth of contracts made available to eligible businesses as part of the program. Legal restrictions do apply for government competitive contracts, and vendors who are interested must hold a valid Business Registration Certificate from the Department of Treasury, Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, and be registered with the Selective Assistance Vendor Information database prior to conducting business in the State of New Jersey and prior to the award of contract from the County of Mercer. Other Set-Aside Programs have proved to be successful in New Jersey, such as those of The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; New Jersey Transit; and Bergen, Essex, and Hudson counties. Opening doors for businesses in Mercer County that may not have the capacity to bid for large contracts, but that do have the qualifications, expertise, and means to provide County departments and agencies with much-needed goods, services, and construction, presents a tremendous new opportunity for those business owners. Any business that wishes to learn more about Mercer County Set-Aside Program, or needs help registering, should contact James Chambers Jr., the coordinator of business outreach for Mercer County, at (609) 989-6212 or jchambers@mercercounty.org, or visit the Mercer County website Purchasing section for assistance.

Vittoria Colonna Subject Of Labyrinth Reading

Ramie Targoff will be at Labyrinth Books on Tuesday, May 7 at 6 p.m. to read from and discuss her book, Renaissance Woman: The Life of Vittoria Colonna (Farrar, Straus and Giroux). According to Cammy Brothers in The Wall Street Journal, “Ms. Targoff is adept at keeping the reader informed of the complex geopolitical

machinations taking place in Colonna’s life, among them the conflict between Clement VII and Charles V, which pits her family’s loyalties against her husband’s, and the schism in the church wrought by Lutheranism. All of this is introduced not as dry context but as high drama. Working closely with Colonna’s letters and poems, Ms. Targoff gives her the vividness of a fictional protagonist.” Ramie Targoff is a professor of English, the co-chair of Italian studies, and the director of the Mandel Center for the Humanities at Brandeis University. She is the author of Common Prayer: The Language of Public Devotion; John Donne, Body and Soul; and Posthumous Love: Eros and the Afterlife in Renaissance England.

BOOK REVIEW

The Jazz Age Began 100 Years Ago Today in Scott Fitzgerald’s “May Day” When a friend, reading his manuscript, asked what a certain word meant, Fitzgerald said, “Damn if I know, but doesn’t it fit in there just beautifully?” —Andrew Turnbull, from Scott Fitzgerald (1962) he most notorious of the May Day uprisings that shocked New York and other American cities 100 years ago today erupted in Cleveland Ohio, where a march by the Socialist Party sparked riots resulting in two deaths and numerous injuries. In the chronicles of 20th century American literature, however, the dateline May 1, 1919 belongs to “May Day,” a long story by Scott Fitzgerald that first appeared in The Smart Set in July 1920 and was reprinted in Tales of the Jazz Age (1922). In Paradise Lost (Belknap Press 2017), the most recent of numerous biographies, historian David S. Brown suggests that although Fitzgerald “always considered himself politically on the left and selfidentified as a ‘Socialist’ in Who’s Who in America,” his “critque of capitalism” grew out of “a primarily conservative impulse.” For an example, Brown cites an observation by one of Fitzgerald’s first biographers, Andrew Turnbull: “Fitzgerald’s political thought, like all his thought, was emotional and impulsive, general ideas being for him little more than a backdrop to his fiction.” An All-Night Binge Turnbull’s biography locates the impetus behind “May Day” not so much in the attack on a Socialist newspaper as in Fitzgerald’s all-night binge with a fellow Princetonian following a Yale fraternity dance at Delmonico’s. Fitzgerald’s wild night began in Child’s Restaurant on 59th and Broadway, where “the dance crowd was sobering up,” but not Fitzgerald, who sat off by himself “mixing hash, poached eggs, and catsup” in his companion’s derby before approaching various Yale men with hostile designs on their fried eggs or shredded wheat. “Soon food was being thrown and Fitzgerald was kicked out,” though he tried to “sneak back in on hands and knees each time the restaurant door opened.” Returning to Delmonico’s “in the early dawn,” the two revelers took the “In” and “Out” signs off the coatroom doors and fixed them to their shirt fronts, thereby becoming “Mr. In” and “Mr Out,” which is how they introduced themselves to the friends they called on the house phone at the Biltmore Hotel. After being refused champagne for breakfast at another hotel, they were finally served at the Commodore “and ended up rolling the empty bottles among the churchgoers on Fifth Avenue.” These drunken escapades prefigured Fitzgerald’s cavortings with Zelda Sayre when they honeymooned at the Biltmore (from which they were eventually banished), bathed in the Plaza fountain, and took the show to Princeton, where “Zelda turned cartwheels down Prospect Street” and poured a demijohn of applejack over omelets to make omelettes flambée during breakfast at the Cottage Club.

Fitzgerald puts his sprees to effective, sometimes inspired use in “May Day,” which has room for Mr. In and Mr. Out; two soliders who join the attack on the newspaper; Ivy Leaguers and their dates dancing and drinking at Delmonico’s; and in the end a drunken marriage and a lonely suicide. Fitzgerald’s gift for redeeming outrageous behavior in his work recalls Hemingway’s stunned admiration for The Great Gatsby: “When I had finished the book, I knew that no matter what Scott did, nor how he behaved, I must know it was like a sickness and be of any help I could to him and try to be a good friend.” Turnbull ends the May Day chapter with a sentence from Fitzgerald’s 1937 essay “Early Success”: “The uncertainties of 1919 were over — there seemed little doubt about what was going to happen — America was going on the greatest, gaudiest spree in history and there was going to be plenty to tell about it.” “A Somewhat Unpleasant Tale” Fitzgerald refers to the autobiographical component of “May Day” in a brief preface to “this somewhat unpleasant tale” that “relates a series of events” connected only by “the general hysteria” that “inaugurated the Age of Jazz,” events that he tried (“unsuccessfully I fear”) to weave into a pattern that would “give the effect of those months in New York as they appeared to at least one member of what was then the younger generation.” Fitzgerald’s token “unsuccessfully” is belied by the dimensions of his vision of a time and place, specifically New York City on the cusp of Prohibition. The bravura prelude, a mock-heroic hymn to the gaudy splendors of Manhattan, casts a satirical light on the inane materialism of the period, at the same time evoking the capitalist greed targeted by the Socialist newspaper: “Never had there been such splendor in the great city, for the victorious war had brought plenty in its train, and the merchants had flocked thither from the South and West with their households to taste of all the luscious feasts and witness the lavish entertainments” and “to buy for their women furs against the next winter and bags of golden mesh and varicolored slippers of silk and silver and rose satin and cloth of gold.” The tone is taken to an even broader level in the next paragraph’s reference to the “foot-soldiers” returning from the war “pure and brave, sound of tooth and pink of cheek” to be welcomed by “the young women of the land,” who were “comely both of face and of figure.”

Annual Book Sale

Beautiful Shirts The plotline of the story follows Gordon Sterrett, “a darkly handsome” down-andout artist desperately soliciting a loan of $300 from his wealthy ex-roommate at Yale Philip Dean. As he waits in a New York hotel room while Dean takes a shower, Sterrett’s gaze falls on “a family of thick silk shirts littered on the chairs amid impressive neckties and soft woollen socks.” Picking up one of the shirts, he gives it “a minute examination. It was of very heavy silk, yellow, with a pale blue stripe — and there were nearly a dozen of them. He stared involuntarily at his own shirt-cuffs — they were ragged and linty at the edges and soiled to a faint gray. Dropping the silk shirt, he held his coat-sleeves down and worked the frayed shirt-cuffs up till they were out of sight.” At this point, most readers of The Great Gatsby will be reminded of the scene where Gatsby dazzles Daisy with his wardrobe: “He took out a pile of shirts and began throwing them, one by one, ... shirts of sheer linen and thick silk and fine flannel, which lost their folds as they fell and covered the table in many-colored disarray.” As he brings out still more, “the soft rich heap mounted higher — shirts with stripes and scrolls and plaids in coral and applegreen and lavender and faint orange, and monograms of Indian blue.” Expensive shirts that become beautiful in the lyric glow of Gatsby become hateful amid the ugly ironies in “May Day,” especially in the eyes of the aspiring artist who claims he could pay back the loan if only he had enough money to buy “decent drawing materials.” Fitzgerald had “been there” himself during the half year before Scribner’s accepted his first novel. In his 1932 essay “My Lost City,” he describes “being haunted always” by his “other life,” his “drab room in the Bronx,” his “square foot of the subway,” his “shabby suits” and his “poverty.” Embattled by the “vibrant life” of the city, he got “weeping drunk” and went home to Minnesota to finish his novel. By the time he returned to New York, the book that became This Side of Paradise had been accepted, the offices of editors and publishers were open to him, “impresarios begged plays, the movies panted for screen material.” The Fitzgerald Touch All through “May Day” there are touches of the poetry that achieves full expression in The Great Gatsby. The account of the early morning melee at Child’s is buoyant and amusing, as might be expected from

the author of the real-life chaos. But then the commotion gives way to a “phenomenon” that draws admiring glances from everyone in the restaurant: “The great plate-glass front had turned to a deep blue, the color of a Maxfield Parrish moonlight — a blue that seemed to press close upon the pane as if to crowd its way into the restaurant. Dawn had come up in Columbus Circle, magical, breathless dawn, silhouetting the great statue of the immortal Christopher, and mingling in a curious and uncanny manner with the fading yellow electric light inside.” What at first appears to be another preview of Gatsby is the scene where the story’s Daisy, a debutante named Edith, encounters a drunken, miserably needy Gordon Sterrett during the dance at Delmonico’s. Fitzgerald seems to be setting the stage for a Daisy-Gatsby moment in his description of Edith fantasizing about Gordon, “falling in love” with her memory of a romantic interlude they’d shared at another dance before the war. In a lesser story, she might have given him the compassion he was desperately seeking. But according to the grim trajectory followed in “May Day,” she finds his drunken misery disgusting and gives him nothing. Endings After reprising Mr. In and Mr. Out in the penultimate section of “May Day,” Fitzgerald ends the story with Gordon waking in the bedroom of a small hotel next to a woman who had boozed and blackmailed him into marriage. It’s a long way from “Maxfield Parrish moonlight” to the moment he begins to comprehend his fate. The windows in the room are “tight shut,” the room smells of “stale cigarette smoke and stale liquor,” and there’s a rip in the large leather chair he’s staring at as realizes he’s “irrevocably married.” Half an hour later he buys a revolver at a sporting goods store, takes a taxi to the room he’d been living in, and, “leaning across the table that held his drawing materials, fired a cartridge into his head just behind the temple.” Some 30 years later, Fitzgerald’s great admirer J.D. Salinger ends his breakthrough New Yorker story “A Perfect Day for Bananafish” in a hotel room that smelled of “new calfskin luggage and naillaquer remover.” With the woman he had just married lying asleep on one of the twin beds, Seymour Glass “went over and sat down on the unoccupied twin bed, looked at the girl, aimed the pistol, and fired a bullet through his right temple.” n a letter to Zelda written from Hollywood shortly before his death at 44 from a heart attack on December 20, 1940, Fitzgerald told her he was writing “a constructed novel like Gatsby [published in 1941 as The Last Tycoon], with passages of poetic prose when it fits the action.” After noting “how odd it was that his talent for the short story had vanished,” he suggests that “part of it was tied up somehow with you and me — the happy ending.” —Stuart Mitchner

Gustavo Dudamel Ends Princeton Residency in Week of Musical Glory

os Angeles Philharmonic Music Director Gustavo Dudamel, who has been in residence at Princeton University for this academic year, finished his year-long stay on the campus with a jammed-packed week of multicultural events featuring performing talent both local and international. In a residency centered on “Uniting our World through Music,” Dudamel focused the April activities on exploring art and nature, with particular emphasis on art, politics, and society. The final week of April, which concluded Dudamel’s residency, featured a film screening, performance by international chamber musicians, conversational lecture on The Artist in Society, concerts of El Sistema-based instrumental ensembles, and a culminating event of Dudamel leading the Princeton University Orchestra and Glee Club in two performances reaching more than 2,500 people. Demanding the same expectations of Princeton University musicians as he would the LA Philharmonic professionals, Dudamel set a very high musical bar for the close of the academic year. Recognizing Dudamel’s impact on music education worldwide through his advocacy of the Venezuela-based El Sistema pedagogy, it was fitting that Princeton University Concerts included performances of local El Sistema-trained ensembles in Dudamel’s last week. Last Wednesday night’s public concert in Richardson Auditorium included a short concert by Harmony Program, a New York City-based El Sistema-inspired organization founded by Princeton alumna Anne Fitzgibbon. The 18 musicians of Harmony Program presented music ranging from Tchaikovsky to Duke Ellington, showing themselves to be poised and welltrained musicians with great attention to musical detail. Harmony Program set the stage well for the featured performance that night of Ensemble Berlin, comprised of nine members of the Berlin Philharmonic. As Dudamel pointed out in his introductory remarks, the Berlin Philharmonic is a standard-bearer of musical excellence and tradition worldwide, and the four works performed by Ensemble Berlin showed the musicians’ command of both rich Western European musical legacies and cutting-edge composition of the 21st century. The Ensemble Berlin concert included the world premiere of Measuring, a work by Princeton University composer Steven Mackey exploring Mackey’s “bank of metaphors” connecting music to properties of natural law. Mackey’s appealing and textural work fit well with the solidlyperformed Wagner and Schubert chamber works representing the 19th century. The concerts Wednesday night were only an appetizer for one of the key events of Dudamel’s year-long residency — performances of the Princeton University Orchestra and Glee Club led by Maestro Dudamel. Sharing the Dudamel musical wealth with both Princeton and the surrounding area, Princeton University Concerts scheduled last Friday night’s performance at Richardson Auditorium with a free-to-the-public repeat on Saturday afternoon at Trenton War Memorial’s Patriots Theater. Although the April events of Dudamel’s residency were focused on exploring art and nature, Friday night’s concert by the University Orchestra and Glee Club were

also rooted in the literature of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and William Shakespeare. Two of the works performed included chorus, with the University Glee Club (prepared by Gabriel Crouch) split between the men singing Franz Schubert’s Gesang der Geister über den Wassern and the women supplying the voices of fairies in Felix Mendelssohn’s Incidental Music to A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Originally conceived by Schubert as a piece for voice and piano, the onemovement Gesang der Geister reflected Goethe’s “song of spirits” through scoring for men’s voices and lower strings. Dudamel began the piece warmly with unified celli and double basses, topped off by a light tenor choral sound. The tenor and bass sections each portrayed characters in the poem, ranging from “cliffs” to the “wind,” and Dudamel brought out well Schubert’s diverse musical and textual effects. With a solid underpinning by the lower strings, Dudamel’s interpretation of Schubert’s choral setting demonstrated great flow to the music and a gentle ending. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet fantasy-overture included no words, but was solidly based on Shakespearean drama. In a quick but intense tempo, Dudamel led the Orchestra through the numerous musical transitions without letting the theatrical cat out of the bag. The Montague and Capulet “feud” passages were precise and clean, aided by crisp brass and an elegant contrasting English horn solo played by Vedrana Ivezic. Dudamel rebuilt the musical drama repeatedly throughout the overture, changing conducting gestures from lyrical to sweeping to decisive on a dime, with the Orchestra cleanly responding. The women of the University Glee Club joined the Orchestra to tell Shakespeare’s story of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in concrete musical fashion. The performance of this piece also included dramatic theatrical narrators Victoria Davidjohn, Jacy Duan, and Kateryn McReynolds, effectively dressed in red to contrast with the musical performers in black. A pair of flutes opened the “Overture,” as Dudamel maintained a chipper and joyful tempo. Clean and flighty strings kept the fairies alive and the music always moving forward, as Dudamel brought out the quirkiness of Shakespeare’s more humorous characters. As in Tchaikovsky’s fantasy, Mendelssohn’s work included numerous dramatic changes, including the familiar “Wedding March,” played in a surprisingly fast tempo with very crisp brass. The women of the Glee Club provided a light and clear choral tone, with two soloists from the chorus featured. Soprano Allison Spann sang with a solid lyrical sound and mezzo-soprano Caroline Zhao displayed a tremendously powerful voice. Both soloists were self-assured and confident in their roles. uch of Dudamel’s residency this past year was in the public, but equally as much was behind the scenes as he coached student performers, rehearsed ensembles, and provided support to the El Sistema-based programs which he has championed for so long. Dudamel’s immersion into Princeton musical life was captivating and long-lasting, and one which the University and community will likely not forget for a long time. —Nancy Plum

Music and Theater Young Musicians Join Pros At Capital Philharmonic Event W hen Daniel Spalding heard young violinist Joseph Hsia perform at a music competition last year, he knew he was witnessing something special. The event was the Global Music Partnership International Competition, held at the 1867 Sanctuary in Ewing. Spalding, the music director and conductor of the Capital Philharmonic of New Jersey, subsequently invited Hsia, a West Windsor Plainsboro South High School senior, to join the orchestra at a concert being held this Saturday, May 4 at 7:30 p.m. at Patriots Theater at the War Memorial in Trenton. Hsia is one of 30 young musicians taking part in the performance, which is titled “Celebrating Our Youth.” “He is an amazing talent,” Spalding said of Hsia on Monday. “We just had a rehearsal last week, and he’s playing like a real professional.’” Members of The Youth

Orchestra of Central Jersey, the Bravura Youth Orchestra, and Greater Princeton Youth Orchestra w ill be participating in the concert, which includes Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto with Hsia as soloist; Wagner’s Rienzi Overture with 30 youth orchestra members; and Respighi’s Pines of Rome with a dozen youth orchestra brass players. “The Rienzi Overture is going to be spectacular,” said Spalding. With the 30 kids joining our players, we’ll have a 100-piece orchestra on the stage. It is very exciting.” Hsia, who is headed to Harvard in the fall, started violin lessons at the age of 5 and is currently studying with Sheryl Staples at the Juilliard School of Music’s pre-college program. He has performed at such venues as Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center, the Weill Recital Hall at Manhattan’s Carnegie Hall, and Lincoln Center.

Since his debut at age 8 with Princeton’s Westminster Orchestra, he has been a featured soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra, the A mbler Sy mphony, New York Chamber Players Orchestra, Sinfonietta Nova, and other ensembles. A native of Kansas, Spalding was music director of the Philadelphia Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra for 25 years before taking over the Capital Philharmonic in 2013. He has conducted across the globe and devoted considerable energy to music education, spending four years as music director of the American Youth Philharmonic Orchestras based in Washington, D.C. Choosing the Mendelssohn piece for Hsia to play with the orchestra made sense, “because it is one of the most popular, most playe d concer tos of a ll time,” Spalding said. “Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky probably top the list of famous violin concertos. It is a beautiful work. It has a very extensive violin cadenza which is very interesting.” Pines of Rome is the final work on the program. “I’m using about a dozen brass players from the youth orchestras to augment our orchestra, and they’ll be playing from the balconies,” Spalding said. “It also has an organ part, so we’ll have that, too. I can’t think of a better way to end our season. It will be pretty neat.” Tickets ranging from $30$65 are available at www. capitalphilharmonic.org or (215) 893-1999. The War Memorial is at 1 Memorial Drive in Trenton. —Anne Levin

PSO “Mango Suite” Project at Richardson

The Princeton Symphony Orchestra (PSO) explores cultural identity in literature and music through two separate, yet linked events making up its Mango Suite Project: the Saturday, May 18, 3 p.m. author event with 2015 National Medal of Arts winner and author of The House of Mango Street, Sandra Cisneros and the Sunday, May 19, 4 p.m. world premiere performance of Derek Bermel’s Mango Suite by the PSO. Both events take place at Richardson Auditorium. Centered on Cisneros’ book and Derek Bermel’s recent work, the Mango Suite Project has captured the interest of the Princeton community with the Princeton Public Library, Princeton University Art Museum, and Labyrinth Books helping to spread word of its events. According to PSO Executive Director Marc Uys, “The Project allows us to demonstrate how artistic mediums can combine to bring into focus important issues like cultural identity.”

IS ON

“AN AMAZING TALENT”: West Windsor High School South senior Joseph Hsia is the violin soloist in a joint concert by the Capital Philharmonic of New Jersey and members of 30 area youth orchestras on Saturday, May 4 at Patriots Theater at the War Memorial in Trenton. Daniel Spalding, the CPNJ’s music director, praised Hsia for his skill and musicality. The 3 p.m., May 18 free author event features Sandra Cisneros speaking with Grammy-nominated composer Derek Bermel about her experiences growing up amidst two cultures and its impact on her writing of The House on Mango Street. Guest vocalist Paulina Villarreal and pianist Steven Beck will perform excerpts from Derek Bermel’s Mango Suite, which draws inspiration from several of the book’s vignettes. Presented in partnership with the Princeton Public Library and Princeton University Art Museum, the event is intended to foster a community-wide dialogue around challenges faced by Princeton’s Latinx immigrant community today. The free event includes a post-discussion book signing. Labyrinth Books will be selling copies of The House on Mango Street and other titles by Cisneros in the Richardson Auditorium lobby beginning at 2 p.m. Although the event is free, admission tickets are required and are available by phone at (609) 497-0020 or online at princetonsymphony. org. Edward T. Cone Music Director Rossen Milanov conducts the 4 p.m., May 19 PSO concert featuring the World Premiere Derek Bermel’s Mango Suite with Mex ic a n m ez zo - s opra no Pau lina Villar real. A ls o on the program are three works by Manuel de Falla:

El amor brujo, The ThreeCornered Hat, Suite No. 1, and La vida breve, Spanish Dance No. 1. Two of these works will feature the artistry of flamenco dancer Griset Damas-Roche. Milanov will host Derek Bermel and Sandra Cisneros in a preconcert talk taking place in Richardson Auditorium at 3 p.m., and open to concert ticket holders. Concert attendees are invited to a post-concert reception at the Princeton University Art Museum which is currently exhibiting “Miracles on the Border: Retablos of Mexican Migrants to the United States.” Paulina Villar real is a prominent recitalist, cabaret, operatic, and musical theater singer. She was recently named one of the top prize winners at the international Lotte Lenya Competition in New York and at the Comic Opera Guild Competition in Michigan. A graduate of the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, she has been a soloist with companies and orchestras around the United States including Opera Saratoga, Cincinnati Opera, Opera Fusion: New Works, the prestigious Tanglewood Music Center, the Boston Pops, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and Kentucky Symphony Orchestra. Villarreal is the founder and artistic director of the annual concert series Cantos

para Hermanar al Mundo, devoted to the promotion of classical vocal genres hosted in Northern Mexico. Griset Damas-Roche was born in Havana, Cuba, and after 12 years of a professional ballet career at the National Institute of Art of Cuba, her interests moved to flamenco and Spanish classical ballet, spurring her to the position of soloist in the Spanish Ballet of Cuba. Eventually, she made her way to Columbus, Ohio, where she currently teaches flamenco at her U Will Dance Studio while continuing a professional dance career. She was invited by the Columbus Symphony Orchestra to dance with them at the Ohio Theater in 2018 and 2019 as a part of the Spanish Festival, and by the Chautauqua Institution to perform in its 2018 Summer Season. In 2019, she won a grant from Greater Columbus Arts Council to attend the International Festival of Flamenco in Albuquerque, N.M. Tickets ($96, $80, $62, $35, and $28 -youth) for Derek Bermel’s Mango Suite are available at princetonsymphony.org or by calling (609) 497-0020. Subscriptions for the 2019-2020 Season and Pick 3+ ticket packages are also available. Programs, artists, dates, and times are subject to change.

on the masterpieces Tiffany had in his home and studios; and the first major exhibition in North America of Emile Gallé’s work. Since leaving the Museum, Warmus has pursued a career as an independent curator, historian, and appraiser, specializing in modern glass, abstract art, and the aesthetics of the natural environment. He is the author or co-author of more than 15 books, including biographies of Tiffany, Lalique, and Chihuly. Warmus was the editor of Glass Magazine, faculty member and visiting artist at the Pilchuck School of Glass, executive secretary of the Glass Art Society, and board member at Urban Glass.

Through this innovative therapeutic art program, the creative process becomes a tangible tool for self-expression, critical thinking, and problem-solving that can transform the lives of the artists, according to HomeFront. “Making art lets us step away from our lives for a moment. It’s a chance to breathe, a chance to reset your system and bring a new reality to an otherwise blank page. All of us as humans need to express ourselves in some way. When there are limits to how you can express yourself, having an outlet where you can create, where you can make art, opens doors to new ways of thinking and helps us to see ourselves in new and beautiful ways.” Sixty percent of the proceeds from the sale of artwork at the exhibit benefit the artist, and 40 percent goes to support HomeFront’s Art Exhibit Reception ArtSpace.

“LAMBIE”: This junk mail collage is featured in “Re:fuse,” Aurora Robson’s solo exhibition running at the Hunterdon Art Museum May 19 through September 1. An opening reception and gallery talk are scheduled for Sunday, May 19 from 2 to 4 p.m.

Artist Converts Trash To Art in New Show

S om e t i m e s on e m a n’s trash isn’t just another man’s treasure. For Aurora Robson, it can be art. Robson’s solo exhibition “Re :fuse” opens Sunday, May 19 at the Hunterdon Art Museum, with a reception from 2 to 4 p.m. Everyone is welcome to the opening, which will include a gallery talk by the artist and refreshments. The exhibit runs through September 1. Robson is a multi-media artist known mostly for her meditative work converting plastic waste into art. Robson’s art challenges our perception of matter. “Can artists serve a significant role in terms of solving environmental and societal problems? The answer is yes,” says Robson. “Artists have historically served as the eyes of society. The impulse to make a piece of art is precisely the opposite of the impulse to throw something away,” she said in her TEDx Talk. “I practice revealing the hidden value and potential in trash by working with the vehicles and packages that deliver the things we desire to us.” In “Re:fuse,” Robson uses laundry detergent, bleach, shampoo, and milk bottles; other plastic debris ; and junk mail to create visually intriguing works of art. The exhibition features wall reliefs — including several new pieces — and an assortment of junk-mail collages. Her practice is about shifting negative trajectories into something positive: Much of Robson’s art formally references recurring nightmares she experienced as a child. Robson noted that these nightmares typically consisted of this “never-ending looping knot that continued in every direction.” In the negative spaces in those knots, various blobs would form and grow. “I felt like they were going to suffocate me,” she said. From the depths of those dark midnight terrors, Robson conjured up images to create harmonious compositions. Robson holds a double major B.A. in visual arts and art history from Columbia University. Her work has been featured in Sculpture Magazine, Art in America, WIRED, Art & Antiques, the cover of Green Building + Design, and other publications. She is a recipient of the Pol lo ck K r as n e r G r a nt, a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in

Sculpture, a TED/Lincoln Re-Imagine Prize, and a National Endowment for the Arts Art Work Grant. Robson is also the founding artist of Project Vortex, an international collective of artists, designers, and architects who work with plastic debris. She is also the creator of a college course “Sculpture + Intercepting the Waste Stream” (SIWS) that she has taught at universities. “My goal in making art is to give people an opportunity to reflect on their own perception of value so that we can all recognize that it isn’t just the letter, it’s the envelope that’s a gift,” Robson noted in her TEDx Talk. “In fact, all of this is. Waste is merely displaced abundance. Giving thought and attention and energy to matter is what makes something a piece of art.” The Hunterdon Art Museum is at 7 Lower Center Street in Clinton.

“Relationship” Exhibit at Gallery Gary Giordano

“Relationship, An Art Exhibition” opens May 10 at Gallery Gary Giordano in Lambertville. An opening reception is Sunday, May 12, 12–3 p.m. Gallery Gary Giordano is located on the third floor of The People’s Store, 28 North Main Street, Lambertville. The exhibition will run through May 25. According to Giordano, in the creation and process of making a work of art, an artist will often develop a strong emotional or intellectual relationship with a piece. They feel connected through the interaction of creating it, or may disconnect and then reengage. For many artists, it is a rollercoaster of emotions and a wealth of concurrent ideas. When the artist feels satisfied the work is complete, that relationship to the work may also be at an end. For the viewer, seeing or experiencing a work of art, generates a relationship wholly separate from that which the artist may have had or even intended. A new relationship starts. They respond emotionally or intellectually based on their own interpretations. Although they may be informed by critics and curators as to how to feel and think, they will invariably have their own reactions to the work. This exhibition explores the relationship of the artists and their work. The work selected represents something to which each artist felt a

strong relationship while in the studio. The work presented is designed to engage a relationship with a viewer in the gallery. For more information, email gallerygarygiordano@gmail.com or call (845) 461-7677.

With Trio of Senior Stalwarts Leading the Way PU Men’s Volleyball Gets 1st NCAA Tourney Win

illy Andrew, Kendall Ratter, and Corry Short were barely out of diapers the last time the Princeton University men’s volleyball team won the Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association (EIVA) championship. Now the trio are seniors for a Tigers team that claimed not only its first EIVA title since 1998 with a 3-2 win over Penn State at Dillon Gym on April 20, but one week later picked up the first NCAA tournament win in program history, 3-1 over Barton last Thursday. “It’s been incredible,” said Short, a 6’4 native of Lighthouse Point, Fla., who shared team-high honors with Joe Kelly, getting six digs against Barton as the Tigers prevailed 25-23, 25-21, 18-25, 25-20 and improved to 18-12 overall. “What a way to end our Princeton volleyball careers. Even taking it further, before the playoffs even started, solidifying our hosting of the EIVA tournament was something really special in and of itself. No other Princeton team has done that. As we moved forward into the playoffs, playing in Dillon Gym was really special. I think it meant a lot to all us seniors, but it also meant a lot to the whole team. It’s an incredible journey from that point to playing Barton and beating them and having the opportunity to go play in Long Beach this week.” Princeton, now ranked 13th in the latest AVCA Coaches’ Poll, was scheduled to meet No. 3 Pepperdine (22-6) on April 30 in the NCAA tournament quarterfinals. The Tigers lost to Pepperdine, 3-1, in their season opener on December 30 but earned a second chance at the West Coast power – the same team that the 1998 Princeton team lost to in the NCAA tournament 21 years ago. “We’ve matured as a team tremendously, mentally and physically,” said the 6’4 Ratter, who hails from Encinitas, Calif. “We’re a completely different beast. We had a lot of freshmen playing in that first game too and we still took a set off them. Not that the freshmen aren’t solid players, but having more experienced leadership on the court definitely makes a difference.” The trio of seniors has helped to lead a Princeton team that also boasts a highly acclaimed junior class that features EIVA Player of the Year George Huhmann and Parker Dixon. The senior class is a mix of talents and backgrounds. Ratter and Andrew took last year off from school before returning to the team this year and joining the Class of 2019 that had whittled down to Short after starting with four players as freshmen. “When we were going through it, at least for me, it was a really hard time,” said Andrew, a 6’6 native of Phoenix, Ariz. “Having to take some time off from all my friends and teammates and to just not basically play

for nine months, was tough. It’s one of those things that you can’t help but think things happen for a reason. If that hadn’t happened, then we wouldn’t have been a part of this incredible run. As hard as it was at the time, it made it so much sweeter right now.” The seniors have been a part of a turnaround in the program as Princeton has rebuilt itself after graduation losses followed a strong 2015 season. It’s been a slow build-up and this year the Tigers have broken through in a big way. “My freshman year, we had lost a pretty core group of seniors that had graduated — Cody Kessel, Will Siroky, Tony Ensbury — that kind of drove the team to take it to another level during their time here,” said Short. “When they left, they left a vacuum that gave other guys an opportunity to step up and take the program into their hands. Guys like Junior Oboh and Mike Fuerst were some of the guys, and this program really mattered to them. They kind of drove the bus along with the help of me and Kendall Ratter and Billy Andrews and some of those guys.” Princeton showed promise last year as it went 12-16 overall and 7-7 EIVA, but the results didn’t happen. This year they have come. The Tigers went 13-1 in EIVA regular season play and avenged their only loss in a 3-0 win over St. Francis in the EIVA tournament semifinals. “In the beginning of the year, we got together as a team and felt we had some good pieces and we put together a huge list of goals and things we wanted to accomplish,” said Ratter. “Throughout the year we’ve been knocking them off one by one. We had all these things we wanted to do and we knew what we wanted to achieve and we’ve been working all year to get them.” With each win and each growing accomplishment, they have heard from more and more past Princeton players as they’ve put together one of the best seasons in program history. They are a source of pride within the program. “We always talk about the ’98 team like they were some kind of myth or legend, and nobody had come close to them since,” said Andrew. “Now we’re right there with them.” The Tigers middle blocker remembers believing in the team more after a narrow 3-2 loss to Cal State-Northridge back on February 1. CSN was ranked No. 12 at the time yet they needed a two-point win in the fifth set to hold off Princeton. “I just remember even though we lost that game, that was kind of a turning point for me in how I viewed our team,” Andrew said. “We are kind of legit. We have a lot of good pieces and this is a year we really can do something incredibly special. While the ’98 team

has always been a huge motivating factor for us, this group of guys that we have this year is by far the best team that I’ve been a part of here. I think for me that was the biggest motivating factor – being able to do something with this group of guys that hadn’t been done before.” The Tigers have used contributions up and down a diverse lineup. Players have accepted lesser roles for the greater good. Andrew is a player who has been in and out of the starting lineup throughout his career. “I’m always trying to find any way to add value,” said Andrew. “I’ve always taken a lot of pride in our bench cheers, our bench energy. I think a lot of teams have noticed that this year, which is pretty cool. I think it’s more than an individual effort. In the last couple years, the entire team has really bought in to everything that we’re doing. It’s not about one person getting individual accolades. It’s about the team winning and going forward.” The versatility of Princeton has made it especially hard to prepare for. The Tigers have shifted almost their entire lineup set to set at times this season. “I can’t even count how many starting lineups we’ve had this year,” Andrew said. “It’s like every time somebody goes out, no one misses a beat. I think it puts a lot of pressure on the other team across the net not really knowing what’s coming at them. It’s worked out really well so far.” Princeton has used constant pressure on teams with an attacking style that starts with the serve. Princeton has an ability to score with a lot of different players. Against Barton, Huhmann led the way with 19 kills, but Ratter had 11 kills, Greg Luck had 10 kills and Dixon had eight kills for the balanced attack. “Our team has a lot of pieces,” said Ratter. “In the EIVA, any single player can go off on a given night and carry the team. I’ve had some of those nights. Parker, George, Greg, have had those games. We look and see who’s going off, who has the hot hand and we don’t really care who gets it as long as we get the win and we’re playing as a team. I’ve been doing my part. I’ve had games where I’ve played well, I’ve had games where I didn’t play as well and other guys have stepped up. That’s just the ebb and flow of volleyball.” The Tiger defense has continued to develop through the year to also become a strength. “Defense is more of a mentality shift,” said Short. “You have to want the ball more than the other team. There are some technical details and things you can refine. It’s something we’ve been refining all year. There were some plays and incidents where we had some great digs to transition kills that sparked the momentum shift in the game and were crucial to us winning.” Put it all together, and it’s

SENIOR MOMENT: Princeton University men’s volleyball senior players, from left, Kendall Ratter, Curry Short, and Billy Andrew enjoy the moment as the program held its Senior Day celebration before topping Penn State 3-0 on April 13. Last Thursday, the trio helped Princeton make history as it topped Barton 3-1 in the opening round of the NCAA tournament, earning the program’s first-ever win in the national tourney. The No. 13 Tigers, now 18-12 overall, were slated to play at No. 3 Pepperdine (22-6) in a quarterfinal contest slated for April 30 in Long Beach, Calif. (Photo provided Princeton’s Office of Athletic Communications) become a formula for one of the greatest seasons in Princeton history. The Tigers see it as a starting point rather than an aberration for the program. “The dream is this is a shift in the program and we become a top tier team, which I think is entirely possible with all the younger guys watching and playing with us every day in practice and getting just as good,” said Ratter. “I think we can start a dynasty, start a legacy. Maybe we’re not that special, maybe that’s how the program changes in the future. That

would be my dream.” The seniors have helped to shape the turnaround and enjoyed being a part of a team that has rewritten the record books with every match over an action-packed final two weeks. “Coming into this week, guys were excited,” said Andrew. “We’ve done something that no team has done in 21 years, and we were trying to do something that no team has done in win our first NCAA game. It’s been a crazy week. It’s been hectic. I don’t think anybody would have had it any other way.” The Princeton men’s vol-

leyball team is sending its seniors out on top with their ride of their lives. “Winning the EIVA championship hasn’t honestly hit us yet because we’re in the thick of our season, but once the season is over we’ll look back on it a little more and reflect back on how incredible of a season this was,” said Short. “I couldn’t have imagined it going any better than it did. It’s been one of the highlights of my Princeton career and volleyball career. I wouldn’t trade it for the world.” —Justin Feil

PU Women’s Lax Edges Cornell for 6th Ivy Title, Tigers Heading to NYC for League Tournament There was a chill in the air as the Princeton University women’s lacrosse team played at Cornell last Saturday in its regular season finale as snow showers hit Ithaca and the temperature hovered around 40. Undeterred by the wintry conditions, Princeton got off to a hot start, jumping out to a 12-5 halftime lead. “We were playing really well, we were winning the draws by a large margin in the first half and that allowed us to get those good possessions,” said Princeton head coach Chris Sailer. “We were shooting really well, our shooting for the day was right around 60 percent,

which is phenomenal. We had a lot of nice looks offensively and we were finishing our 8-meters.” With Cornell building a draw edge of 10-6 in the second half, the Big Red rallied to within three goals but never got closer as Princeton pulled out an 18-15 victory “This is a good Cornell team and we saw that on the film we watched,” said Sailer. “They are really powerful offensively, they had a lot of different weapons. They had some kids really step up. We did a decent job on their top scorers, Caroline Allen and Tomasina Leska, but some of their other kids really performed well.”

By stepping up down the stretch, 10th-ranked Princeton improved to 12-3 overall and 6-1 Ivy, earning its sixth straight league regular season title in the process. It also clinched the top seed for the league postseason tournament this weekend, which will decide which team gets the Ivy’s automatic berth in the upcoming NCAA tournament. “It was just great for our players to be able to walk off that field with a win, knowing that after the early loss to Brown (12-11 on March 23) that we really had no room for error,” said Sailer, who got four goals and two assists from junior Tess D’Orsi in the triumph with sophomore Kyla

If you look at the four teams in the Ivy tournament, we had to beat the other three (Cornell, Penn, and Dartmouth) all on the road in tough places to play.” Earning a sixth straight crown shows that the Tigers have maintained a winning focus over the years. “It really means a lot for the program, I think the most we had ever won in a row before this stretch was four in a row,” said Sailer, whose team is sharing the regular title with Dartmouth (11-4 overall, 6-1 Ivy). “To win or share six in a row now is really a tribute to the hard work that the team puts in day in, day out, and their commitment to the process and improving over the course of the season. It is a lot of hard work for our staff in terms of recruiting. You don’t succeed at that level consistently if you don’t have a really strong culture that we developed within the program.” In reflecting on this spring’s success, Sailer gives a lot of credit to the program’s stellar senior group. “The senior class has been impactful; any tine you graduate with four Ivy titles, you have to have had an impactful class,” said Sailer, whose Class of 2019 includes Alex Argo, Nonie Andersen, Allie Rogers, Kathryn Hallett, Izzy Mangan, Julia Haney, and George. “I think it has been 2009 since we have had such a large senior class where every single kid was basically a full-time player for us. They all didn’t start out that way, I think only one of them started as a freshman, so they have really developed and grown. They were a great recruiting class; we thought they would have a really tremendous career here. They have more than met those lofty expectations.” As Princeton heads to New York City for the Ivy postseason tournament, where it is seeded first and will face fourth-seeded Cornell in a semifinal contest on Friday, Sailer has high expectations. “For me, any time you are in a tournament, you start out 0-0; it doesn’t matter what your seed is, it is two games to win the tournament cham-

pionship,” said Sailer, whose team would face the winner of other semi between thirdseeded Penn and secondseeded Dartmouth in the title game on May 5 if it can win the rematch against the Big Red. “I think we gave Cornell some confidence, they were able to score a bunch of goals in the last 10-15 minutes of that game. We have to play better defense than we did in the second half the other day. It is going to be a fight. I go back to two years ago when we beat Penn 21-8 and then it was a three goals game a week later in the conference championship. Each game is

different. It is not going to be the same script again. We are going to have to be ready for a battle and playing our best.” H av i n g p o s te d s e v e n straight wins, Princeton is ready for a big postseason run. “It is win or go home; you need your best lacrosse and we are excited for the opportunity,” said Sailer. “We have played some great lacrosse over the last few weeks, different units have led in different games. We are really going to need to have everybody on top of their game and playing our collective best.” —Bill Alden

SIX SHOOTERS: Princeton University women’s lacrosse player Tess D’Orsi sprints upfield in recent action. Last Saturday, junior star D’Orsi tallied four goals and two assists to help Princeton defeat Cornell 18-15 in its regular season finale. The 10th-ranked Tigers improved to 12-3 overall and 6-1 Ivy with the win over the Big Red, earning their sixth straight league regular season title in the process. This weekend, Princeton heads to New York City for the Ivy postseason tournament where it is seeded first and will face fourth-seeded Cornell in a semifinal contest on Friday. The victor will advance to the title game on May 5 against the winner of the other semi between third-seeded Penn and second-seeded Dartmouth. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski)

Jake Boone comes from an incredible baseball lineage as his father ( Bret), uncle (Aaron), grandfather (Bob), and great grandfather (Ray) all enjoyed stellar Major League Baseball careers. Upon graduating from Torrey Pines High in San Diego, Calif., in 2107, Boone had the chance to join the family business, getting selected in the 38th round of the 2017 Major League Baseball Draft by the Washington Nationals. But Boone opted instead to attend Princeton University and join its baseball program. “I talked to my family, my dad, my uncle; it is great to get taken out of high school but being able to come here, it is very hard to pass up an opportunity like this with the academics,” said Boone. “We figured it was the best option. The thing I kept hearing from my family over and over was if you are good enough, no matter what you do, they find you.” After struggling as a freshman by hitting .169, shortstop Boone is proving to be a very good player for

Princeton this spring, hitting .308 so far this season with a team-high 48 hits. “It comes with the maturity, getting used to the college level,” said the 5’11, 175-pound Boone, whose goal is to ultimately play pro ball. “I fell into the trap last year of tr ying to do too much, coming out of myself. I have really settled in and I feel a lot more comfortable.” L a s t we e ke n d , B o o n e showed his comfort level, going 4-of-12 with a run and two RBIs as the Tigers went 2-1 against visiting Brown in a three-game set. “I am just trying to get it started early, see the ball, and try to not do too much,” said Boone. “I try to not overthink anything and just hit the ball hard.” Princeton took a hard loss on Sunday, squandering a 5-2 seventh inning lead on the way to losing 11-5 and getting eliminated from a shot at the Ivy League Playoff Series, dropping to 1323 overall and 8-10 Ivy. “We were really hoping for a big sweep here,” lamented

the After Backlash

Boone, who went 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI in the defeat. “Losing the last few innings is definitely tough. I am proud of the way we fought through the weekend. It was a good weekend for us and a good series win at the very least.” With the Tigers having gone 7-2 in their last nine games, including taking two of three at Cornell from April 20-21, Boone is looking for the squad to fight to the finish as it wraps up the spring with a three-game series against St. John’s this weekend and a three-game set at Yale from May 11-12. “We have started to put everything together in the last couple of weeks and I think that is showing in the way we are playing,” said Boone. “Our No. 1 focus is to keep doing what we have been doing these last couple of weeks and end on a high note. We want to go out strong and win every game that we can. We don’t want to fold or anything like that.” NEXT GENERATION: Princeton University baseball player Jake Boone takes a big cut in recent —Bill Alden action. Last Sunday, sophomore shortstop Boone went 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI in a losing cause as Princeton fell 11-5 to Brown. Boone, who comes from a long line of Major League players including his father (Bret), uncle (Aaron), grandfather (Bob), and great grandfather (Ray), is now hitting .308 with a team-high 48 hits. While the Tigers went 2-1 against Brown last weekend, the defeat eliminated them from a shot at the Ivy League Playoff Series. Princeton, now 13-23 overall and 8-10 Ivy, has a three-game set against St. John’s next weekend with a doubleheader in Jamaica, N.Y. on May 4 and a single game in Princeton on May 5. 908.359.8388 (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) Route 206 • Belle Mead

PU Sports Roundup Banghart Leaving PU Hoops, Taking Over UNC Program

After guiding the Princeton University women’s basketball team to seven Ivy League championships and eight NCAA tournament appearances in 12 seasons, Tiger head coach Courtney Banghart has accepted the head coaching position at the University of North Carolina. Banghart, 40, entered into a five-year contract to guide the Tar Heels. Banghart replaces Sylvia Hatchell, a Hall of Fame coach who resigned April 18 after an outside program review reported she had made “racially insensitive” comments and pressured players to compete through medical issues. The Tar Hells posted an 18-15 record in Hatchell’s final campaign During her tenure at the helm, Banghart helped to guide Princeton to unprecedented heights while being named the 2015 Naismith National Coach of the Year, as well as one of Fortune Magazine’s World’s 50 Greatest Leaders. Banghart put together a 254-103 (.711) overall record and won better than 80 percent of her Ivy games with a 137-31 record (.816) while winning 89 more games than any other coach in program history. She leaves fourth alltime in Ivy history in overall victories and Ivy wins. After taking two years to turn the program around, Banghart led the Tigers to the NCAA tournament in eight of the last 10 years, with seven automatic bids and the league’s only at-large bid by a men’s or women’s team, for a run that has never been matched in Ivy League women’s history and has been done just once on the men’s side (Penn won nine of 11 from 1970-80). During Banghart’s tenure, Princeton reached many program and conference firsts and bests, including: the best regular season record (30-0)

and longest win streak by a men’s or women’s team (31) in 2015, the highest NCAA tournament seed (No. 8), the highest AP poll and coaches poll ranking (No. 13) and the first program in the Ivy League to be ranked nationally in the AP preseason poll. In the 2018-19 season, the Tigers (22-10) secured the Ivy League regular season and tournament championships for the second straight year. Princeton’s undefeated 30-0 regular season in 201415 was the best in Ivy League basketball history, men’s or women’s. The Tigers also achieved the highest-ever ranking for an Ivy women’s program, climbing as high as No. 13 in the Associated Press and USA Today Coaches polls. The Tigers would go on to finish with a program-best mark of 31-1. With an 80-70 first round victory over ninth-seeded Green Bay, Princeton became just the second Ivy program to record an NCAA win. A national search for Banghart’s successor will begin immediately.

He finished his career as a twotime Bushnell Cup winner as the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Year, in 2016 and then, after missing the 2017 season due to injury, against this past fall. During his time at Princeton, Lovett accounted for touchdowns by throwing, rushing and receiving.

BROWN OUT: Princeton University men’s lacrosse player Chris Brown heads to goal in a game this spring. Last Saturday, sophomore attackman Brown scored a goal as Princeton fell 14-13 at Cornell in its season finale, the loss eliminating it from making the Ivy League postseason tournament. Brown has at least one goal in all 27 games of his career, the longest such streak for any Princeton player since the advent of freshman eligibility. In addition, junior star Michael Sowers tallied seven goals and an assist to give him 255 points in his career and set the Princeton all-time record for points as he was tied with Kevin Lowe ’94 at 247 entering the contest. Sowers also broke his own school record for points in a season, ending up with 90 this season and, with his second goal, became the first Princeton player and sixth Ivy League player to have at least 100 career goals and 100 career assists. The Tigers ended the spring at 7-7 overall and 2-4 Ivy League. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski)

Shaylah Marciano came out firing as the Princeton High girls’ lacrosse team hosted perennial powerhouse Hunterdon Central last Thursday. The junior midfielder tallied two goals and two assists in the first 7:21 of the contest as PHS jumped out to a 4-1 lead. “We knew they were a really good team coming in, we have lost to this team before,” said Marciano. “ We re a l ly w a nte d to start out strong so we could continue the momentum throughout the game.” After the Red Devils went on a 5-2 run to knot the game at 6 - 6, the Tigers reeled off six unanswered goals to build a 12-6 lead at halftime. “We had our ups and downs, but everyone put their head down and focused on what they needed to do individually,” said Marciano. PHS didn’t let up in the second half, going on a 10-3 run of its own and never looked back on the way to a 25-14 win. “Everyone stepped up so well, it was really the draw controls of Mariana [LopezOna],” said Marciano. “She does a fantastic job of getting the draw and pushing that fast break. We wanted to keep pushing that; we kept it rolling from there.” Marciano tallied seven goals and three assists in the victory as she assumed the role of finisher instead of her usual focus on feeding. “That was the way the offense worked, they had a little bit of a different defense,” said Marciano. “They doubled sometimes; it was mix and match and my teammates found me today.” Marciano and senior star Lopez-Ona have developed a knack for finding each other over the years, a partnership which will continue as they have both committed to attend the University of Michigan and compete for its women’s lacrosse program. “We have been playing to-

gether for a very long time and we are going to keep playing together for a long time,” said Marciano of Lopez-Ona who had five goals and three assists against Hunterdon Central. “That connection has always been super strong. We know each other’s strengths and weaknesses extremely well. She just gives me a look and it is ‘oh OK.’” Balance has emerged as a strength of the PHS attack. “We are super blessed to have an extremely talented offense this year,” said Marciano, who tallied three goals and three assists to help PHS edge Clearview 13-11 last Monday as it improved to 11-1. “Every single player can feed, assist, or drive. Anyone on the team, no matter where the ball is, can make something happen. That is really the key to our success. If they take one of us out, we have another six girls who can do it. It is an extremely selfless team; we really look for each other.” The PHS defensive unit has also been looking sharp. “Our defense has gotten so much better every single game,” added Marciano. “Lila Doran is playing so well with interceptions and ground balls. We have been a doing phenomenal job on defense and a key to our offense is getting those stops on defense and transitioning it.” PHS head coach Meg Reilly sensed that her team was primed to play well against Hunterdon Central. “Hunterdon is always consistently strong and fast and they are incredible off the draw,” said Reilly. “They have a fantastic reputation but we have just been playing more together each game. We get a little bit better and stronger at trusting each other. A huge theme of today was trust.” Withstanding the first half flurry from the Red Devils, PHS kept things together until the final whistle. “There were some momentum shifts but we always ended up on top because we

PLAYMAKER: Princeton High girls’ lacrosse player Shaylah Marciano cradles the ball in recent action. Last Monday, junior standout Marciano tallied three goals and three assists to help PHS edge Clearview 13-11.

stayed fired up,” said Reilly, who got five goals from freshman Kate Becker in the win with junior Eva Petrone adding four goals and an assist and senior Kathryn DeMilt contributing three goals and an assist. “That was PHS transition. We have always been strong with transitions and if another team’s defense takes away our transition, we get a little out of whack. We kept it totally consistent today with transition.” Marciano has been a consistent threat for the Tigers. “I adore the fact that she is an all around athlete, she can do everything well in multiple sports,” said Reilly of Marciano, who is also a soccer goalie and basketball point guard for PHS. “She found her shot today because she is so unselfish. It wasn’t even because of drives, it is because she was always in the right place at the right time. She is trying to set her teammates up and they equally set her up well.” The one -t wo punch of Marciano and Lopez-Ona drives the PHS attack. “Mariana was the playmaker today and Shaylah was the finisher, they can both take turns,” said Reilly. “They know each other so well, it is almost like they can telepathically communicate. They find each other; you don’t even see the fact that the other is open but they see it.” Reilly was happy to see her defensive unit come up big with some key early stops. “The defense was the unit that was firing us up the most,” said Reilly. “It was led by Lila and Lauren [Rougas] with their blocks and interceptions.” The excellence at both ends from PHS drew an emotional response from the first-year head coach in the wake of the victory. “They choked me up because they played so well today. I am happy that we play tough competition and rise to the occasion,” said Reilly. “A game like this and a game like Notre Dame (a 12-6 win on April 8), those two were our biggest statement victories. I am most proud of those two because of the way they brought each other up and raised the level of play with each minute of the game. They kept challenging each other to do better and better. With PHS starting play in the Mercer County Tournament this week where it is seeded second and will host a quarterfinal contest on May 4, Reilly is confident her players will keep rising to the occasion. “I am so excited,” said Reilly. “We need to focus on the transition game and the communication on defense, especially with the second slides. On attack, it is being unselfish. When our attack is unselfish, we play the best.” Marciano, for her part, shares Reilly’s excitement as she looks ahead to the postseason. “We definitely want to make a statement in the postseason with MCTs and states,” said Marciano. “It is playing our game and hopefully seeing teams like Lawrenceville, Allentown, or Notre Dame and having great games.” —Bill Alden

PHS Track Enjoys Historic Weekend at Penn Relays As Senior Stars Wildberg, Brennan Come Up Big Entering the Penn Relays last week at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, Princeton High track stars Paul Brennan and Nils Wildberg didn’t appear poised to make a major impact at the world famous competition. “Paul was really sick last weekend and actually lost in the discus to the kid from Lawrence High school at the county relays,” said PHS coach Ben Samara. “I think that was a huge wakeup call, it was like ‘oh my god, I am mortal, I can lose.’ Nils has been doing some short run jumps at the beginning of the season. He did some long run jumps at the county relays and it didn’t go well. He was having a lot of trouble getting off the board and getting up in the air.” T he P r inceton - b ou nd Brennan and Dar tmouth commit Wildberg proved to be up the challenge last weekend as they excelled against an inter national field. Brennan threw a personal best, school record, a New Jersey top-ranked throw of 186’ 11 to finish third in the Boys Discus while Wildberg took fourth in the Boys Long Jump with a 23’ 8 leap, also good for a N.J. #1 ranking. Ending up as the highest finishing U.S. performers in their events. Brennan and Wildberg both earned coveted Penn Relays gold watches. “It is a really difficult thing to get a watch there,” said Samara. “For both of them to do it in the same year is a testament to those guys and our program.” The success of the senior stars was a testament to their diligence. “Paul took the last week to work on his technique and to really lock himself in,” said Samara. “We did a lot of drills this past week with Nils on getting him high off the board. It really paid off over the weekend.” The PHS girls’ relay quartet of junior Colleen Linko, sophomore Gabby Goddard, freshman Kendall Williamson, and junior Raina Williamson also had a big weekend at Franklin Field track on fire. The fab four reset their school record from earlier this season in the 4x100 relay, running 50.27 and followed that by creating another school record and N.J. #3 time of 3:54.23 in the 4x400 relay. Linko (57.19) and Goddard (57.54) both recorded sub-58 splits on the day. “There is a great camaraderie between the girls. They have so much fun on the track and off the track,” said Samara. “It is like four sisters out there; they laugh, they joke, they fight and they poke fun at each other. They have grown so close. It is going to be really exciting to see what they do because. now that they have run this time in April, there are no limits to what they can do over the next two years. I don’t think a state title is out of the question in the 4x400.” With PHS competing in the Mercer Coaches Classic on May 4 in its final tuneup before the Mercer County Championships on May 11, Samara knows that a run of injuries will make it hard

for the boys’ squad to earn a second straight county crown. “There is no margin for error,” said Samara, whose team is without the services of throwing star Ben Kioko and distance standout Acasio Pinheiro with sprinter Matt Perello on the mend. “In any other year, we would probably win going away. Unfor tunately this year, our all-time team is going up against another all-time team in Nottingham. They are on fire, they are able to spread it around. To match them, we are going to have to be perfect but that is something I have seen these guys do before. I don’t put it past them.” PHS boasts a clutch performer in junior star pole vaulter Simon Schenk who had done great things in big meets. “Simon does a thing where he likes to step up as the season progresses,” added Samara. “He will be at 13’6, 14, 14’6 but we always know that by Meet of Champions, he is going to be there.” The Tigers are developing a corps of young sprinters who should step up in the future. “We have a 4x100 group with guys like Donaldinho Servil, Nahim Modeste, Everett Murray, Adam Berner,

Lahemoo Pwee, and Henry Cook,” said Samara. “Those guys got to run at Penn Relays and they are going to run the 4x100 at the county meet. We are trying to keep that group together for two or there years and see what we can do.” As for the PHS girls, Samar believes they should be in the mix. “We can cover some of the events,” said Samara. “Again, there is another all-time team there in WW/P-North, who is a juggernaut. The 4x400 girls are going to score their points. Nicole Richardson is a hurdler and pole vaulter and she can score some points. Some of our throwers who are going to need to step up and get those points. If they can do that, we are going to be in that meet too.” Samara is hoping that senior distance star Siena Moran will be in form as she get backs up to speed. “Siena is coming off a a non-track related foot injury,” said Samara. “She is doing well but the question is can she double in the 800 and the mile. That will be her first time doubling this season but we are confident that she will be ready.” In the final analysis, PHS will have to stretch its resources and hope for the best. “It is really how we can spread the kids that we have around to the different events,” said Samara. —Bill Alden

With Senior Star Birch Saving Her Best for Last, PDS Girls’ Lacrosse Primed for Postseason Run Maddy Birch wasn’t about to take a defeat in her Senior Day for the Princeton Day School girls’ lacrosse team. With PDS knotted in an 8-8 tie against visiting Somerville at halftime last Saturday in its regular season home finale, senior attacker Birch took over the intermission pep talk from head coach Jill Thomas. “Maddy sat them down at halftime and she said, ‘we are better than this, we are playing down,’” recalled Thomas. “She said we needed to step it up and get it together. She walks the walk, she is the glue man for the team like we said at the Senior Day ceremony.” Birch, for her part, knew that the Panthers could do much better in the second half. “We came out strong, we

knew that we better than this team and we could take them,” said Birch. “We were playing down to their level and I think after halftime we regrouped and went back to playing our game.” The Panthers raised their game over the last 25 minutes of the contest, pulling away to a 20-13 victory. “We realized that we should go out there and play our game,” said Birch, who ended up with three goals and an assist on the day. “I especially didn’t want to lose this game. No one else did either and we just came out strong.” Reflecting on the Senior Day ceremony, Birch experienced some strong emotions.

BIRCH BARK: Princeton Day School girls’ lacrosse player Maddy Birch carries the ball upfield in a game earlier this spring. Last Monday, senior star Birch tallied three goals and three assists as second-seeded PDS defeated seventhseeded Pennington 15-5 in the state Prep B quarterfinals in improving to 7-5. The Panthers will host a Prep B semi on May 6. In addition, PDS will be starting play in the Mercer County Tournament this week where it is seeded fifth and will host a second-round contest on May 2.

“We have had a great season and it is a great group of seniors,” said Birch. “We have been through four years together. Everyone was excited not only to do it for Senior Day but for the whole spring weekend. Everyone is here.” Building on that excitement, PDS rolled to a win in the state Prep B quarterfinals on Monday as the second-seeded Panthers defeated seventhseeded Pennington 15-5 and improved to 7-5. “It is definitely good to end the regular season on a big win and now we are going back Monday and we are facing Pennington,” said Birch. “We already played then which I think is also helping. We know we can beat them. I think everybody is just excited.” Developing a special team unity this spring has been a key factor fueling the Panthers’ strong play. “I think the team chemistry this year is unbelievable; we all love each other so much,” said Birch. “The sisterhood on this team is like no other year I have had at PDS so far. I think that makes a huge difference. We all show up to practice ready and wanting to get better and be around each other. That helps so much.” PDS head coach Jill Thomas credits Birch and her classmates with setting a positive tone. “They have taken a very young group and said you know what, we are going to be a formidable opponent for anybody we play and they just did it,” said Thomas, whose senior group includes Zoe Cook, Laurel Peters, Gwen Allen, and Val Radvany in addition to Birch. “They have really brought everybody together. They learned that teamwork and team chemistry are so important and they can go so far in giving the effort.” Thomas was thrilled with the effort she got from Birch down the stretch against Somerville as she took matters into her own hands to trigger the PDS surge. “How about that shot in the corner, did you check that net and see if there is a hole,” said Thomas with a chuckle referring to one of Birch’s goals. “She came out and did it.” Pulling away to the win over Somerville was a good way for the Panthers to go into postseason play. “It is a confidence builder, it doesn’t hurt,” said Thomas, whose team hosts a Prep B semi on May 6 and will be starting play in the Mercer County Tournament this week where it is seeded fifth and will host a second-round contest on May 2. “We take them one at a time and they have to keep on working. The defense has to gel more and keep outworking them. They know what they have to do. We have to take care of little things and take care of the ball better. It is tournament time, you play or you go home.” Birch, for her part, doesn’t want to go home any time soon. “It is sad that it is coming to an end, I don’t think it has hit me yet,” said Birch, who is heading to Franklin & Marshall this fall, where she will be playing for its women’s lacrosse program. “I want to finish the season strong and I think we are going to have a great end to the season.” —Bill Alden

Sparked by Junior Carroll’s Hitting Surge, PDS Baseball Picks Up Dramatic Victories

In Dudeck’s view, the comeback win could be a turning point for his squad. “It shows hard work pays off, they have been practicing hard,” said Dudeck, whose team fell 4-3 to the Hill School (Pa.) last Monday to move to 6-6 and plays at New HopeSolebury (Pa.) on May 3 and then starts action in the Mercer County Tournament. “Sometimes it is frustrating when you are working so hard and you don’t get the result that you want. It is rewarding when you have a situation like this when you actually come through and you see it and it is confidence builder for sure.” Carroll, for his part, is confident that the Panthers can keep coming through. “Every single guy on the field is willing to play any role and that helps us tremendously,” said Carroll. “As pitchers, we need to throw strikes. We can’t kill the momentum by walking guys. Defensively, we make our plays in the field. We always hit. I think we will be fine.” —Bill Alden

Andy Blake demonstrated his all-around diamond brilliance as the Hun School baseball team hosted the Hill School ( Pa.) last Wednesday. The lanky postgraduate right-hander pitched a complete game shutout as Hun prevailed 12-0, striking out eight and yielding just four hits. At the plate, Blake went 2-for-3, legging out a pair of doubles and contributing two RBIs. “I just tried to use all of my stuff, execute, hit my spot,” said Blake, reflecting on his mound outing. “They are a good team, they are going to put bat on the ball. There were a few times where I was a little shaky and I just had to refocus and came back better, stronger.” At the plate, Blake focuses on keeping things simple. “I just try to see fastball early in the count and hop on it,” said Blake. “I don’t really like to go late in the counts. If I do go late, then I just try to put the ball in play for the team.” After helping Hopewell Valley enjoy a big season last year as it won the Mercer Count y Tournament, Blake is relishing being on another powerhouse this spring. “Everyone on this team can play wherever and can do a job,” said Blake, who went 2-for-3 with two RBIs as Hun defeated Somerville 8-1 last Thursday to improve

to 13-1. “We have faith, no matter who is in, that they can get the job done.” Blake was welcomed with open arms by his new teammates. “They have been great to me,” said Blake. “We are brothers, it is like I have been on the team for four years. There is a great atmosphere over there. I really enjoy it, I made the right decision.” Making another big decision, Blake has committed to attend Columbia University and play for its baseball program. “I wanted a very good academic school while at the same time, the baseball also needs to be really good,” said Blake. “I feel like Columbia was a good match.” H u n h e ad co ach Tom Monfiletto feels very good to have Blake for a season. “Andy is incredible, he is such a bulldog,” said Monfiletto. “He is very gifted, he is a very talented, but the thing that you can’t measure from him is how well he competes and how much he competes. He relishes those moments in anything he does. We did a three-on-three basketball tournament in January and his team won. That’s what he provides.” The Hun players compete hard behind Blake when he toes the rubber. “I think there is a confidence behind Andy when he is pitching because he pounds the zone, he works fast,” said Monfiletto. “He also makes plays on the mound too.”

Pounding out 11 hits in the win over Hill, the Raiders did some good work with the bat in the win. “I thought we did a much better job with two strikes; we got the barrel on some balls and adjusted,” said Monfiletto. “Ben Petrone had a nice double. Jake Sloss had some big hits. That was great, that was a big spot. We made in at-bat adjustments, which is difficult to do and we did that today.” With Hun starting play in the MCT next week and the state Prep A tournament on the horizon, Monfiletto believes his players have to be a little sharper to come through in big spots, “We are going to play teams that are really well coached and everybody gets better as the season goes on,” said Monfiletto, whose team plays at Seton Hall Prep on May 3 and faces Steinert on May 4 at Veterans Park in Hamilton before getting into MCT action. “We are better too but we have to button up the little things that can sometimes us cost us the game. We have gotten lucky in some situations.” Blake, for his part, concurs with Monfiletto’s analysis. “We can do some big damage,” asserted Blake. “We just need to play our game and if we do that, we are going to be tough to beat.” —Bill Alden

Bruce Adin LaBar

Bruce Adin LaBar, age 86, died peacefully on April 18th at Morris Hall in Lawrenceville, NJ. Bruce is survived by son Phil LaBar of Plainsboro and daughter, Jeanette MacCallum of Brentwood, TN, and three grandchildren, Christina Jezioro of Brentwood, TN, Jacob Jezioro of Boston, MA, and Bruce Adrian LaBar of Manville. He is predeceased by his wife of 59 years, Marion Moll LaBar.

Bruce was raised in Minerva, NY, in the Adirondack Mountains where his parents operated Morningside Camps and Cottages, a seasonal retreat for its guests, offering 80 private acres on Minerva Lake. Along with his brother, Frank, Bruce aided his father in constructing and maintaining the cabins and grounds. During the off-season, the LaBar family cultivated a Christmas tree grove and operated a maple syrup farm. Morningside remains in the LaBar family and is now owned and managed by Bruce’s nephew, David LaBar. The extended family and many friends have enjoyed countless visits and reunions in this idyllic setting to this day. Bruce attended Bucknell University in Lewisburg, PA, where he met his eventual wife, Marion while singing in the chapel choir. Upon graduation with a degree in Commerce and Finance in 1954, Bruce served as a radio operator in the US Army in Fairbanks, AK. His army tenure ended in June 1956, the same month of his marriage to Marion. After completing an MBA at The Wharton School, Bruce enjoyed a successful career in accounting, finance, and investment analysis working for Arthur Andersen, Waddell & Reed, Lionel Edie & Co., and the Division of Investment for the State of New Jersey from which he retired in 1992. Br uce enjoyed a w ide variety of hobbies including woodworking, forestry, canoeing, hiking, skiing, photography, genealogical research, square dancing, bridge, tennis, and antique glass collecting. He was a voracious reader with a particular interest in world history. Bruce and Marion especially enjoyed traveling together, often with friends. They attended many classical music concerts and regularly enjoyed opera productions. Their greatest passion was choral singing and they sang in a choir together every year of their married lives. They sang in the Nassau Presby terian Church Choir in Princeton for over 45 years. In more recent years, Bruce and Marion resided at P r i n c e to n W i n d r o w s where they maintained an active social life and served on numerous committees. They also established the Moll-LaBar Family Scholarship at Bucknell University for students with demonstrated financial need and took pleasure in getting to know student recipients.

Obituaries

The first in her family to attend college, Priscilla g raduate d f rom Cor nell University with a bachelor’s degree in English and education and earned a master’s degree in studio art and art education from DePauw University. A brilliant artist and lifelong learner and teacher, Priscilla’s limitless faith in each and every human being gifted her students, friends, family, and every soul she met the ability to see beauty, create beauty, and love the beauty in our lives. From Marist College to South Brunswick Schools to the Princeton YWCA and the West Windsor Arts Council, Priscilla created artistic spaces of imagination, safety, possibility, and love. She was active in local and regional art groups such as Art+10, the Art Station, Trenton Artists Workshop Association, the 3rd Street Gallery in Philadelphia, and so many more. “Wondrous on Witherspoon,” the pop-up gallery Priscilla launched celebrated, in her words, “the kaleidoscope of our joint commitment to artmaking, creativity, community, teaching, and learning.” Priscilla had been generously offered the space to use for displaying her own artwork, but that was inconceivable to her. She immediately invited over 40 professional and emerging artists from the Princeton and Trenton areas to create and share a community gallery. Priscilla embodied unconditional love and filled ever yone who knew her with purple light. Born in the Bron x, N Y, she was the devoted eldest daughter of Ir ving and Rachel Snow. Pr iscilla leaves a cosmic hole in the lives and hearts of countless friends and relatives, including her three sisters, Bobbi Snow, Sheila Snow, and Madeline Hayden; two daughters and a son-in-law, Alisa and Carin Algava and Michael Gow;

The answer may be boxwood blight, which was introduced in North America in 2011 and has since been slowly spreading throughout the country. The rain and humid season of 2018 has caused this fungus to spread rapidly throughout Princeton/ New Jersey landscapes. Not only does this disease affect all variety of boxwoods, but also attacks Pachysandra and Sarcococca. Symptoms and Signs: The fungus that causes boxwood blight can infect all above-ground portions of the shrub. Boxwood blight causes rapid defoliation, which usually starts on the lower branches and moves upward in the canopy. A key symptom that differentiates boxwood blight from other boxwood diseases is that narrow black streaks (cankers) develop on green stems.

• Collect and remove debris from pruning or shearing operations that involve infected plants. Do not compost infected plants or plant debris. It is important to realize that the fungus that causes this disease can persist in the soil for five years or more, which means any replacement boxwood planted in the same site is likely to become infected. Fungicides are effective at protecting plants from boxwood blight infection, but do not cure plants with the disease. You should apply fungicides when temperatures exceed 60°F and at 14-day intervals for the life of the planting, which might be impractical and cost prohibitive. An accurate diagnosis is very important in managing this disease. If you suspect boxwood blight, send samples to your local Plant Diagnostic Laboratory (Rutgers NJAES) for diagnosis. Please share this information with your landscaper and/or whoever would be removing and/or replacing any boxwood on your property. Call WOODWINDS (609) 924-3500 or email us treecare@woodwinds.biz to schedule an assessment of your boxwoods and landscape.
