Controversies Continue Over the Future Of Westminster Choir College

In the continuing saga surrounding the future of Westminster Choir College of Rider University, those opposed to Rider’s sale of Westminster to a Chinese for-profit company remain committed to pursuing legal action that would prevent the transaction from going through. Others who support the sale have suggested that the two lawsuits, which challenge Rider’s right to sell, are endangering the prestigious music school’s ability to flourish in the future. In order for the sale to Beijing Kaiwen Education Technology to proceed, the lawsuits would have to be resolved. In addition, Rider needs approval from the New Jersey Secretary of the Department of Higher Education and the New Jersey Secretary of State. Another key component is the sanctioning of the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). “There are a whole slew of accreditation issues,” said Jeffrey Halpern, an associate professor in Rider’s Department of Sociology and a spokesperson for the school’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). “There is no way we see this being resolved within the deadline, which is July 1, 2018. All of the impediments would have to be cleared. Anyone who’s ever been involved in a civil suit would find that laughable.” According to Larry Livingston, interim president of Kaiwen’s Westminster Choir College Acquisition Corporation, the accreditation is proceeding as normal but hitting delays because of Westminster’s changing status. The process “involves elaborate reports, a site visit, and things typical of what every school goes through,” he said. “There is no possibility that it will be fully accredited until the transaction closes. But we’re working on it and there is no evidence at all that NASM

Dems Win Council Seats; Upsets in BOE Vote

Princeton voters overwhelmingly supported the Democratic team of Eve Niedergang with 6,828 votes and Dwaine Williamson with 6,565 votes in the race for two seats with three-year terms on Princeton Council, according to unofficial results at press time. Current Council members Heather Howard and Lance Liverman will be stepping down on January 1. Though her Council bid fell short, Republican Lishian “Lisa” Wu won 2,074 votes, bolstered by her strong campaign to fight property tax increases. Democrats will continue to hold all six seats on Council in the coming year. In the hotly contested election for three seats on the Princeton Public Schools Board of Education (BOE), Brian J. McDonald, Daniel J. Dart, and incumbent Betsy Kalber Baglio prevailed against strong opposition from incumbent Dafna Kendal and Mary Clurman. McDonald won 3,895 votes, Dart 3,611, Baglio 3,303, Kendal 3,207, and Clurman 3,157. McDonald, Dart, and Baglio will begin new three-year terms on January 1, as BOE President Patrick Sullivan vacates his seat. The ten-member BOE will elect a new president for the coming year. A $27M school facilities bond referendum, scheduled to go before vot-

ers on December 1, was the source of much debate throughout the BOE campaign.The referendum price tag was reduced from an original proposal of $129.7M after significant resistance from Clurman, Dart, and others. The BOE will be seeking further public funding for renovations, upgrades, and new construction in the coming year. In the race to represent New Jersey in the United States Senate, Democratic incumbent Bob Menendez with about 54 percent of the votes held on to defeat Republican challenger Bob Hugin with about 43 percent. In the 12th District election for U.S.

House of Representatives, incumbent Democrat Bonnie Watson Coleman coasted to victory with about 71 percent to about 29 percent for her Republican opponent Daryl Kipnis. Elected to the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders were Democrats Ann M. Cannon, 69,688 votes, Pasquale “Pat ” Colavita, 69,070 votes, and Samuel T. Frisby Sr., 66,701 votes. Also-rans included Republicans Michael Silvestri, 32,341 votes, Mary R. Walker, 32,052, and Cynthia Larsen, 32,393. Elected to a one-year term, running unopposed, was Democrat Nina D. Melker. —Donald Gilpin

Owner of Homestead Princeton Saves Pieces of Hodge Road Home

The fire that burned through the roof of a home at 140 Hodge Road last July has resulted, finally, in its demolition. Over the past few weeks, the elegant, 5,802-square-foot house was reduced to splinters of wood and brick, leaving only the gracious portico to stand

forlornly amid the wreckage until it was removed. The three-alarm blaze, which was reported at about 11:50 p.m. on July 18, is still under investigation, according to Bob Gregory, director of emergency services for the Princeton Fire Department. Built in 1922, the nine-bedroom house had been on and off the market for several years. It was empty of furnishings when firefighters searched its interior the night of the fire.

But the home had a number of architectural and design features that, especially to the trained eye, were worth saving. Ron Menapace, who owns the store Homestead Princeton on Hulfish Street with his wife, Kristin, and is in the salvage business, was able to remove some of those items before demolition began. “I salvaged some mantels, a couple of doors, and some smaller items throughout the place,” Menapace said last week. “Unfortunately, the demolition happened faster than I would have liked, and there wasn’t a lot that I could have grabbed.” Menapace described the property as “a grand, old house that a lot of people in Princeton knew about. I just can’t imagine having some of this beautiful detail work being put into a dumpster. This is more about preservation than anything else.” The house had been vacant since last January, and was deeded to a bank. For many years previously, it had been the home of Howard Menand, a Princeton University alumnus, professor, and dean said to have held many University events there. Two of the mantels Menapace was able to remove will be used in the store for holiday displays, he said. Others will go to the company’s warehouse in Skillman. “We do this a lot,” he added. “We tear down old barns, usually, and salvage the wood to make custom furniture. I’m keenly interested in architectural salvage and preserving some of the history of a structure or a town.” Menapace was also able to remove a fireplace bas-

ket and a porcelain pedestal sink. He tried to salvage a clawfoot tub, but couldn’t get it out. Pulling up some flooring was equally difficult, so he had to abandon that effort. “They had an elevator, so I got some of the old gears,” he said. “I got the butler’s call box, too. Really, whatever I could find that I thought was interesting, I removed if I could. The portico is beautiful, but it’s not really a market for us. The contractor would salvage it if someone wanted to buy it.” For Menapace, the salvage process was a bittersweet experience. “I had mixed Continued on Next Page

So on the one hand, it was sad to see some of the history of Princeton being dismantled. But this town is always renewing itself. There are always new structures coming in.

is holding up the issue.” On October 29, R ider President Gregory Dell’Omo met with Westminster faculty and listed the obstacles that stand in the way of closing the sale. The following day, Dell’Omo delivered layoff notices to the schools’s teaching staff. “In previous communications President Dell’Omo had assured the Westminster community that layoff notices were a mere formality and that all staff and faculty would receive offers of employment from Kaiwen shortly after receiving the notice of layoff,” reads the AAUP statement. “During the meeting the faculty learned that because of uncertainties surrounding the viability of the deal, no offers of employment from Kaiwen are immediately forthcoming.” Livingston said Tuesday that a letter to the faculty was being prepared, “reiterating our enthusiasm for this transaction, our confidence that it will close, and our excitement about where we go once we become an independent institution.” Having previously served in leadership roles at three other colleges of music, Livingston said he has been through the accreditation process several times. “It is always cumbersome and complicated. The first reaction is always deferral, and then through a series of steps it finally happens. We’re doing exactly what we’re supposed to do.” R ider’s chapter of the AAUP is filing a grievance with the union, saying layoffs can only occur in cases

of “financial exigency or the demonstrated financial need to eliminate or curtail programs or courses of instruction to protect the well-being of the University.” Rider had a surplus in the last fiscal year and a $5.5 million increase in net assets, said Halpern. Bruce Afran, the attorney representing plaintiffs in the two lawsuits, said the layoff notices are “simply a letter required under the AAUP agreement to warn faculty it is possible contracts won’t be renewed. But the school is going on, and the faculty will still be employed. All of this is because of the pointless controversy that has been caused by this issue.” Enrollment at Westminster has dropped. The Westminster Foundation, made up of alumni, faculty, and supporters of the choir college, recently authorized a financial allocation to aid with recruitment, and another allocation is underway. Afran declined to say how much the Foundation has raised for the effort. “This was necessary because Rider has dropped the ball,” he said. “We’re down by about half, but it’s a small school and it can be made up. There is still a great demand for this type of educa-

tion. This is what happens to colleges when there are controversies.” Livingston said he is confident that Kaiwen, a bridge company which until a few months ago was not involved in education, is committed to Westminster’s future. “It’s true that their history isn’t about higher education, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t made a commitment to the future. They are well aware that they need to rely on people who are experienced and veterans in the field,” he said. “They’re not approaching this in some naive, presumptuous way. They want it to succeed. Their goal is to form a future of an institution that is academically strong and financially viable.” Afran said it is unlikely that the courts will ever approve the proposed sale, “and Rider and Kaiwen know that. And the state of New Jersey is not going to approve licensing for a college that comes under the domination of an authoritarian foreign dictatorship. Academic freedom must be guaranteed, and this would be controlled by the government of China, which would interfere with academic freedom.” —Anne Levin

To Be Sustainable, Leave the Leaves

Sustainable Princeton advises residents to “Leave the Leaves” for sustainable yard management. The organization says leaves and yard trimmings should be considered a resource rather than waste. T he mater ials become free, carbon-neutral fertilizer and mulch. Chopped up leaves and grass clippings left to decompose provide a yard with nitrogen, the most important fertilizer for grass. Raking leaves into your flowerbeds or the corner of the yard can also help suppress weeds and retain moisture. L e av i ng t h e m ater ia ls will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by opting out of the municipality’s leaf and brush pick up. It also lowers the town’s susceptibility to flooding by preventing leaves from clogging storm drains. Choosing low impact yard technology like rakes or reel mowers is also recommended, because it reduces chemical pollution. According to a 2011 study conducted by Edmunds, “a consumer-grade leaf blower emits more pollutants than a 6,200-pound 2011 Ford F-150 truck.” The low impact technology also reduces noise pollution. Princeton has a list of quiet landscapers who have already agreed to take care of yards the old-fashioned way. The Leave the Leaves blog post provides additional information, including a link to Princeton Environmental Commission’s guide to the benefits of composting and mulching leaves.

and historic preservation is without parallel.” He continued, “It w ill surely deepen their understanding of the serious challenges of practical history and cultural research. It has also catalyzed new passion for the significance of what happened here on January 3, 1777, when Gen. Washington reversed the American retreat, put the British on the run, and saved the spirit of the American Revolution.” Learning techniques of

excavation, metal detection, ground-penetrating radar, and artifact study, participants will be able to explore all aspects of the archaeological project. They will examine material traces of the Battle of Princeton, learn how battle remains are recovered and interpreted, and consider how the cultural landscape can be presented and preserved. “I invite the public to join in activities that Princeton University students have been engaged in, an interdisciplinary examination of the Princeton Battlefield through history, art history,

study of artifacts, and archaeology,” said Arrington. “We’re trying to shed light on the battle and what actually happened. We’re also interested in preservation and archaeological education.” He added, “I’ll be there the whole day at different stations, analyzing artifacts, cleaning and analyzing. I anticipate a lot of discussion as we’re in the trenches together and a lot of teaching outside of the strict lecture format.” At the HSP at 3:30 p.m Sat urday, histor ian Bob Selig will deliver a lecture, “Of Skulls and Skeletons,”

P r i n c e t o n U n i v e r s i t y, P r i n c e to n H i g h S c h o o l (PHS), and Princeton Day School (PDS) are working together in an engineeringaeronautics-space program that will culminate in a November 2019 ThinSat satellite launch. The launch will take place at the Northeast Regional Spaceport at the Wallops Flight Facility on Virg inia’s easter n shore aboard the Northrop Grumman Antares Orbital ATK rocket as part of the NG-12 Mission. “We’re lucky to have gotten in on the ground floor of this project,” said Michael B. Galvin, Princeton University’s director of the enterprise. Galvin, senior technical support and mechanical engineer in Princeton’s Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, and his students are responsible for mentoring the PHS and PDS student teams as they design their thin satellites to collect data on extreme low earth orbit space. “We have a tremendous opportunity to further our students’ experience in a m a n n er t hat’s u npre ce dented,” said PDS STEAM Coordinator Jonathan Tatkon-Coker. “It’s an amazing opportunity to get real flight time. To make something that’s actually going into space is incredibly exciting for the students.” PHS Physics/STEM Teacher Daniel H. L ee, who teaches the engineering class and is spearheading the ThinSat Program at

PHS, described how his students are working through three key aspects to engineering: function, design, and design analysis. “The interdisciplinary class has students apply their understanding of all the sciences in designing a payload to further the capabilities of a current model that exists or to create a new model based on the data that it collects,” he said. So far PHS students have gone through brainstorming and design sessions to think about what kinds of things they can collect. Galvin’s University students have been mentor ing through video conferences and inperson meetings, discussing and providing solutions for issues as they arise. The University studio lab has also provided the setting for collaborative brainstorming, creative design, and prototyping. The first-semester Introduction to Engineering course at PHS will pass on the project to the PHS Rocket Club in the second semester. The three stages of the project, leading up to the November 2019 launch from the Virginia spaceport, include a low altitude balloon launch later this month with sensors on board to see how they function outside of sea level; a high-altitude balloon launch in January or February to test the sensors to make sure they are bringing back data successfully and that the data is useful; and finally getting the payload

itself ready for space in low earth orbit. The sensors that were tested in the second stage will be confirmed for flight-ready testing next fall and sent out to the Wallops Island spaceport. Galvin, who teaches the spacecraft design class at Princeton, has worked as a design engineer with Lockheed Martin Corporation and spearheaded small satellite programs in the past. “I found out about the ThinSat Program at a conference, and I pounced on it,” he said. “It sounded very cool. I was interested in what missions Princeton could undertake. Princeton has a long history of excelling in space technology, and I want to do my part to continue that tradition.” He explained that though ThinSat provides most of the necessary hardware and electronics kits for the project, as well as the big cost of the rocket launch, they do not provide additional financial support. PDS ThinSat Chief Engineer Tatkon- Coker has assembled a PDS ThinSat faculty team, including Chief Scientist Alana Allen and Chief Computer Scientist Theodore Brasoveanu, who have developed a studentled, team-based PDS ThinSat Program experience. “The students are already turning in papers to get their ideas out there,” said Tatkon-Coker. “We’re all enthralled with the program.” —Donald Gilpin

Trenton Awarded Grant For Levitt Music Series

The Mortimer & Mimi Levitt Foundation has named the Trenton Downtown Association as one of three nonprofits across the United States to win a new, $75K multi-year matching grant over the next three years to present the Levitt AMP Music Series. The annual concerts are performed in Mill Hill Park. The two other nonprofits to win the multi-year matching grant are Middlesboro Main Street in Middlesboro, Ky.; and the John Michael Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan, Wis. Each of these nonprofits has received annual Levitt AMP grants during the past four consecutive years. “We are thrilled to announce Trenton as a multiye a r L e v i t t A M P g r a n t award winner,” says Sharon Yazowski, executive director of the Levitt Foundation. “During the past four years, the Trenton Downtown Association has shown tremendous impact in the community through Levitt AMP, bringing people together of

live music, while creating a meaningful community gathering space in the state capital’s historic downtown core. We’re proud to continue our support of this inspiring community.” “The TDA is extremely grateful and very excited to have the Levitt Foundation recognize Trenton with this incredible opportunity, says Tom Gilmour, executive director. The Levitt AMP Trenton Music Series has been a platform that has created families of attendees, staff, and volunteers from within the community to come together every Thursday evening in the summer. We are thrilled to see this journey unfold with our partners and presenting sponsors from the beginning, the City of Trenton, New Jersey Manufacturers and New Jersey State Council on the Arts. The multi-year grand provides us a new opportunity to leverage our success and continue to host this amazing event in the heart of downtown Trenton for three more years. Thank

make this happen!” In June, the Levitt Foundation invited nonprofits to submit proposals that would reflect the three goals of the Levitt AMP awards: Amplify community pride and a town or city’s unique character; enrich lives through the power of free, live Music; and illustrate the importance of vibrant public Places. Nonprofits that received a previous Levitt AMP grant were eligible to reapply. A total of 78 nonprofits from around the country submitted Levitt AMP proposals for 2019, and of these 42 proposals were advanced to the online voting phase, with the public invited to help choose the Top 25 finalists. As a multi-year grant recipient, Trenton will receive funding through 2021 and therefore will not participate in the Levitt AMP online voting process at http://levittamp.org that ends at 5 p.m. PST on November 20, 2018. The 2019 Levitt AMP Grant Award winners will be announced on December 18, 2018.

Concierge Medicine

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new trend in healthcare, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gaining momentum in our area. 0g AO`OV 3[WZg 5WZPS`b =`WUW\OZZg ^cPZWaVSR W\ >`W\QSb]\ ;OUOhW\S 2` 0O`PO`O / 0`]e\ ZSTb O\R 2` :g\\S 0 9]aa]e ]T >`W\QSb]\ :WTSabgZS ;SRWQW\S

or the past two years, Dr. Lynne B. Kossow and Dr. Barbara A. Brown of Princeton Lifestyle Medicine have offered their patients far more than the traditional primary care practice. Most doctors see 25-30 patients a day for an average of 15 minutes, but Drs. Kossow and Brown see six to eight patients a day for up to an hour. In addition to providing treatment for acute illnesses, the doctors act as their clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; healthcare coaches through Lifestyle Medicine, a scientific approach to patient wellness by effecting changes in areas such as diet, physical activity, and stress management. With the current shortage of primary care physicians and the abundance of high volume practices, this type of individualized attention is rare. However, by switching to a concierge format, doctors like Kossow and Brown are able to practice medicine that consists of this broad-spectrum care. Concierge medicine, also known as retainer-based medicine, is an umbrella term for private medical care wherein patients pay an out-of-pocket fee in exchange for enhanced care. Born in the 1990s, concierge medicine was once thought of as a service for the wealthy that charged patients a lofty fee for luxury medicine. In recent years, it has evolved to accommodate patients across all income brackets, leading to expanding interest among patients and their primary care doctors. According to a survey released by the American Academy of Private Physicians at the AAPP 2015 Fall Summit, more than 45 percent of 862 independent physicians would consider a concierge or similar membership model in the next three years. This may be due in part to our aging population needing increased and varied medical services, leading to an imbalanced patient/doctor ratio. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act has increased the number of insured patients, putting a further strain on primary care doctors. As a result, physicians are often unable to dedicate enough time to each patient. In the hopes of increasing both job and patient satisfaction in a financially sustainable way, primary physicians like Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are looking toward concierge medicine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where conventional medicine is failing is in the prevention and reversal of chronic diseases that are becoming an epidemic in the United States today,â&#x20AC;? explain the doctors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The current insurance model is built upon a problembased economic reimbursement that encourages doctors to address medical problems very quickly. This leads to most doctors rushing to see 25-30 patients per day in order to make ends meetâ&#x20AC;ŚThis is not how we have ever practiced. We always want to have the time to address the root cause of diseases that are preventable today.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the past two years, we have been offering our Lifestyle Medicine Concierge Program as an optional program for our patients,â&#x20AC;? they continue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lifestyle Medicine is a 21st century approach to healthcare that consolidates the very best characteristics of traditional medicine with the profound impact of lifestyle behaviors on health. As our program grew, it became readily apparent to us that integrating Lifestyle Medicine into our internal medicine practice

was the best way for us to continue to provide exceptional careâ&#x20AC;Ś We feel that the concierge model is the only way to effectively [do that].â&#x20AC;? Concierge medical practices come in various forms, including those that reject insurance plans all together, but this is not the case for Princeton Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown accept insurance for all covered medical services. In addition, their patients pay an annual fee of $1,200 for the Lifestyle Medicine Concierge program, which gives them access to an elevated level of care. Trained at the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine at Harvard Medical School, the doctors are at the vanguard of their field, having lectured about their practice development model at The Institute of Lifestyle Medicine Conference in 2015. They are also members of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the American College of Physicians. Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice is unique in that it offers patients comprehensive conventional medical care combined with lifestyle counseling. Patients interested in a natural approach to disease prevention are provided in-depth, individualized coaching based on their needs. The doctors can assist with everything from quitting smoking to creating a manageable diet and exercise plan. According to the doctors, this is an evidence-based practice that has been shown to prevent, reverse, or slow down heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, dementia, and some cancers. The concierge model offers Princeton Lifestyle Medicine patients additional benefits including access to the doctorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; emails, cell phone numbers, and private phone line, extended patient office visits, a one-hour consultation, and same or next day appointments. As a result, patients see Drs. Kossow and Brown not only as accomplished medical doctors, but health advocates, mentors, and even friends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our practice structure allows us to spend more time educating our patients about what may be going on with them medically,â&#x20AC;? the doctors explain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are better able to work with them as partners in their care and advocate for them with their specialists or if they are in the hospital. We provide tremendous support and guidance to them and their caretakers or family. We are happy to have this enhanced communication with our patients. It allows us to make social visits when they are hospitalized at the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro so that we can stay in close touch while they are receiving care.â&#x20AC;? Concierge practices like Princeton Lifestyle Medicine focus the healthcare system on its most vital component: the patient-doctor relationship. The model emphasizes quality care instead of quick care, benefitting both parties. Dr. Brown and Kossow are now board certified as specialists in the practice of Lifestyle Medicine and are the only physicians in the Princeton area who are board certified in both Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. As leaders in both concierge and Lifestyle medicine, it comes as no surprise that Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are at the forefront of this effort, bringing Princeton into the future of healthcare.

I am writing to extend our sincerest thanks to the greater Princeton community for supporting our efforts. Proceeds from the event directly support PBC’s awardwinning Summer Bridge Program that allowed 540 young people from Trenton and Newark to spend a week in Blairstown, completely free of charge. Through experiential and adventure-based programming, focus is placed on team-building and leadership skills, closing the summer learning gap, STEM and environmental education. PBC strives to empower young people with the skills needed to create and sustain positive change within themselves, their environment, and in their home communities. It was a spirited evening, as 160 guests were moved by the heartfelt speeches of Bailei Burgess-Simmons of Trenton, a member of the 2018 Leader-in-Training Program, and Sally Jane Ruybalid, Princeton Internship in Civic Services intern and STEM instructor. Longtime Princeton resident and community leader, Marge Smith, who has passionately devoted her life to empowering and connecting people, received the 2018 Frank Broderick Award. An emotional highlight to the evening came with the announcement and dedication of the Ev Pinneo Award. The award will be given to the volunteer or staff member who has gone above and beyond in their dedication and commitment to the mission of the Princeton-Blairstown Center, in much the same way that Ev has throughout his seven-decade association with PBC. We would like to thank the many and generous sponsors and attendees for their support. We are also indebted to Soirée co-chairs Christina Bailey, Denise Frederickson, and Katie Herspiegel for creating a memorable evening of warmth and comradery, celebrating 110 years of PBC history.

Princeton Council Should Reject Planning Board’s Deceptive Recommendation on Seminary Campus

To the Editor: An article entitled “Planners Recommend Redevelopment Zone for Seminary Properties” [Town Topics, October 3] describes the proposed designation of the Princeton Theological Seminary campus and surrounding residential area as “an area in need of redevelopment” (ANR) without disclosing that this is a public relations euphemism for “blighted area” pursuant to the New Jersey Constitution, Blighted Area Clause, Article VIII, Section 3, paragraph 1. The Planning Board’s consultants conveniently failed to mention this important fact, despite more than a decade of case law in New Jersey courts, including Gallenthin v. Bor. of Paulsboro, 191 N.J. 344 (2007), in which the unanimous court emphasized that the designation is intended to apply only to properties “that were causing an economic domino effect devastating surrounding proper-

ties ... Although the meaning of ‘blight’ has evolved, the term retains its essential characteristic: Deterioration or stagnation that negatively affects surrounding properties.” Nothing in the consultants’ report remotely suggests that any of these properties meets the test of being blighted. Instead the consultants paint a fairytale portrait of the ANR/ blighted area designation as just a “different process than traditional rezoning ... It gives greater control over design. You can engage a qualified [re]developer, which you can’t in traditional zoning.” And then comes the big whopper: “there is a great protection of community interest.” Our law firm has represented many a property owner scattered across municipalities all around the state who were lulled into complacency by these misleading consultant reports, only to find themselves stuck in a blighted area limbo for decades, unable to sell, develop, or enhance their property once it is disclosed to banks or potential purchasers that their property is blighted. The Princeton Council should reject the Planning Board’s deceptive recommendation. There is nothing remotely blighted about the beautiful Theological Seminary campus or the historic and upscale residential properties located nearby. R. WILLIAM POTTER Nassau Street

Human Services Commission Encourages Residents to Donate to Holiday Gift Drive

To the Editor: Princeton is a privileged community, both culturally and economically, but poverty nonetheless touches the lives of some of the children and families among us. About one in 10 children in our community qualify for free or reducedprice meals at school, an indicator of economic insecurity. Coupled with the high cost of living in the area, the holidays can be particularly trying for parents who struggle to make ends meet. As the holiday season approaches, we urge Princeton residents to consider participating in Princeton Human Services’ 20th Annual Holiday Gift Drive to help make the holidays a memorable one for these youngsters. Princeton’s gift drive is unique in that residents can respond directly to the holiday wish-lists of individual children and thus give a helping hand to their parents, who would otherwise be unable to meet their desires. The drive offers an excellent opportunity for individuals, families and businesses to share in the spirit of the holiday in this season of giving – and can go a long way in making the holidays more joyous for the families among us who are in precarious economic circumstances. It’s easy to participate in the gift drive: simply sign up online at https://www.princetonnj.gov/departments/ human-services, by November 30. You may also contact the Department of Human Services directly, at (609) 688-2055, or the Department’s director, Melissa Urias via email, murias@princetonnj.gov. You will be matched with a particular child’s holiday wish list and can bring your gifts to the Human Services office in the municipal building at 1 Monument Drive. Please also encourage community residents in need of a helping hand during the holidays to contact our office: children’s gift requests are due November 16. Staff are fluent in Spanish as well as English. The mission of Princeton’s Human Services department is to improve the quality of life of individuals in our community who are vulnerable, economically disadvantaged, or otherwise in need. To meet these needs, the department’s small staff of two collaborates with local and regional or-

ganizations to address food insecurity, housing instability, and access to needed services, as well as providing short term emergency financial assistance. Throughout the year, the department sponsors community activities designed to make Princeton an inclusive and welcoming community, such as Welcoming Week, a Backpack and School Supplies Drive, and Summer Youth Employment opportunities. Human services staff were also instrumental in coordinating relocation and supports for community members affected by recent fires in our community. We are excited to support the work of Human Services staff in this year’s Holiday Gift Drive, which seems more pressing than ever before. We hope you will join us in enriching the holidays for Princeton’s neediest children. We also invite you to visit our website for more information about the Human Services department’s activities and services. Thank you for your attention and generosity!

Princeton Youth Program for Civic Engagement Recognizes Participants in Constitution Day Contest

To the Editor: On Sunday, October 28, the Princeton Youth Program for Civic Engagement and the Princeton Public Library recognized the school-aged participants in our Constitution Day poster contest. In recognition of Constitution Day, which is celebrated each September 17, Princeton youth citizens submitted posters illustrating the importance of the U.S. Constitution in their lives and to our community. Several elementary and middle school aged students submitted beautiful and inspiring posters. During the celebration, stand out posters by Mitalee Pasricha (eighth-grader, John Witherspoon), and Sabella Williams (second-grader, Community Park) were recognized. Congratulations to Mitalee, Sabella, and all the wonderful students who participated in this event! We started Princeton Youth Program for Civic Engagement earlier this year out of a desire to help equip young citizens in our community with the knowledge, skills, and disposition to support robust civic engagement. We do this by connecting young citizens with fun and age appropriate civic development programs and activities, including experiential and service learning opportunities. We partner with other community organizations that share this goal and are grateful for the support of the Princeton Public Library, the Princeton Family YMCA, and so many others in the community. We also advocate for greater inclusion of comprehensive civics and citizenship curriculum in schools and have had a terrific dialogue with Princeton Public Schools on this important topic. The benefits of civic learning for young participants are far reaching. Students who participate in civic learning not only demonstrate strong overall academic performance, but also strengthen important skills in critical thinking, conflict management and collaboration, and develop greater confidence when faced with challenging or unfamiliar situations. As adults, they are more likely to engage in the political process and in their local communities, and even choose careers in public service. Providing young people with the tools to effectively participate in their community today helps them develop skills needed to become effective future leaders. We encourage our neighbors and fellow community members to visit our website, www.princetonyothcivic.org, to learn more, and to join us!

Yes We CAN! Food Drives Collecting For Food Pantries of Arm In Arm

To the Editor: Each year at this time, Yes We CAN! Food Drives collects donated turkeys so those in our community who are less fortunate can share in the traditions of Thanksgiving. This year is different. Instead, we are collecting Thanksgiving “fixings” for the patrons of the food pantries of Arm In Arm, located in Trenton and Princeton. Turkeys will be available from other outlets. Our volunteers will be collecting such items as stuffing mix, canned sweet potatoes, canned green beans and/or corn, cream of chicken soup, packaged gravy mix, canned pumpkin or pumpkin pie filling, and poultry seasoning/ ground cinnamon. Arm In Arm asks that no cranberry sauce be donated as they receive several pallets from the food bank. Your food donations should be brought to the West Windsor Farmers’ Market on Saturday, November 17, between 9 and 1, and deposited at the Yes We CAN! tent. The farmers’ market is located on Vaughn Drive, off Alexander Road, on the way to the Princeton Junction train station. We deeply appreciate your partnering with Arm In Arm and Yes We CAN! Food Drives to help neighbors in need this Thanksgiving. FRAN ENGLER Publicity Chair, Yes We CAN! Food Drives Tuscany Drive, West Windsor

Appiah Will Be Reading fashion, toward an expansion of citizenship for forAt Labyrinth Nov. 14

Library Live at Labyrinth presents Anthony Appiah reading from his book The Lies that Bind: Rethinkin g Id e nt it y ( L i v e r i g h t $ 27.95 ) on We d ne s day, November 14 at 6 p.m. According to Anand Giridharadas in a cover review in New York Times Book Review, “Appiah believes we’re in wars of identity because we keep making the same mistake: exaggerating our differences with others and our similarities with our own kind… [his] writing is often fresh, even beautiful… We need more thinkers as wise as Appiah.” Clifford Thompson in The Washington Post says that “Appiah hopes to inspire a rethinking of our restrictive and therefore divisive notions of who we are. But if that seems an impossible task, should the massive obstacles stop us from trying?” Kwame A nthony Appiah writes the Ethicist column for The New York Times, and is the author of many books, including The Honor Code: How Moral Revolutions Happen and, most recently, As If: Idealization and Ideals. He is professor emeritus at Princeton University and professor of philosophy and law at New York University.

Didier Fassin Discussing Two New Books Nov. 13

Anthropologist, sociologist, and physician Didier Fassin will be discussing two new books, Life: A Critical User’s Manual (Polity) and The Will to Punish (Oxford) at Labyrinth on Tuesday, November 13 at 6 p.m. On Life: A Critical User’s Manual, Viviana A. Zelizer of Princeton University comments, “At a time of growing social inequality, Didier Fassin boldly addresses the persistently unequal valuation of human lives. With sharp philosophical insight, grounded in vivid ethnographic detail, the book uncovers the moral and political processes involved in our treatment of human life. Compassionate and inspiring, Life contributes to scholarly debates and will at the same time appeal to a wide audience.” Didier Fassin is professor of social science at the Institute for Advanced Study and a director of Studies at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales. His many influential works include Enforcing Order: An Ethnography of Urban Policing and Prison Worlds: An Ethnography of the Carceral Condition. He is currently president of the French Medical Committee for Exiles.

Labyrinth Hosts Talk With Lew-Williams, Flores

Beth Lew-Williams will be talking with Lori Flores about Williams’s new book The Chine s e Must G o : Violence, Exclusion, and the Making of the Alien in America at Labyrinth Books Wednesday, November 7 at 6 p.m. This event is cosponsored by Princeton University’s Humanities Council Accord i ng to Reb ecc a Onion in Slate, “The Chinese Must Go shows how a country that was moving, in a piecemeal and halting

merly enslaved people and Native Americans, came to deny other classes of people the right to naturalize altogether…The stories of racist violence and community shunning are brutal to read. Lew-Williams particularly excels at invoking the psychological effects of the law on Chinese people living in the United States after the exclusion acts passed.” Beth Lew-Williams is assistant professor of history at Princeton University and a contributor to the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford University. Lori A. Flores is associate professor of history at SUNY Stony Brook.

Art Historian T.J. Clark Discusses New Book

Art historian T. J. Clark will be at Labyrinth discussing his new book Heaven on Earth : Painting and the Life to Come (Thames & Hudson) on Monday, November 12 at 6 p.m. According to Labyrinth, “Clark goes back to the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance — to Giotto in Padua, Bruegel facing the horrors of religious war, Poussin painting the Sacraments, and Veronese unfolding the human comedy, in particular his inscrutable Allegory of Love. Was it ultimately to painting’s advantage that, in an age of orthodoxy and enforced censorship (threats of hellfire, burnings at the stake), artists found ways to reflect on the powers and limitations of religion without putting their thoughts into words? In conclusion, Clark brings us into the Nuclear Age with Picasso’s Fall of Icarus, made for UNESCO in 1958, which already seems to signal, or even prescribe, an age when all futures are dead.” T.J. Clark is professor emeritus of the History of Art at the University of California, Berkeley. His books including The Painting of Modern Life: Paris in the Art of Manet and His Followers and Farewell to an Idea: Episodes from a History of Modernism.

“Watercolors: Observed and Imagined” at Rider Gallery

The Rider University Art Gallery features an exhibit of watercolors by Rider Professor and Gallery Founder and Director Harry I. Naar, running through November 30. An artist’s talk is Wednesday, November 7 at 7 p.m. Judith K. Brodsky, distinguished professor emerita with Rutgers University’s Department of Visual Arts, has written that Naar’s watercolors “...blend the broken strokes of Cézanne, the rhy thmic qualities of Van Gogh and the linear marks of Derain into works infused throughout with a charged sensuality.” Reflecting on the exhibit, titled “Watercolors: Observed and Imagined,” Naar says, “I want the image to be rebellious, to resist the eye even as it draws you into space. Everything comes from an obser ved realit y for me. Landscape is a passage, you let yourself enter it, you are pulled into it, and I think I find myself exploring the space I’ve created on the page. For me, marks on a page, whether made with a brush or a pen, are an attempt to transcribe how I move through space. The marks are records of where my eyes have been— they shape space in a picture, something like what Giacometti did in his paintings. All the lines define the space.” Naar received his BFA from Philadelphia College of Arts (now University of the Arts) and his MFA from Indiana Un iversit y, Bloom ing ton, Indiana where he was a fellowship student and teaching assistant. He also studied in Paris, France, where he met frequently with the renowned painter Jean Helion. He has served on the Rider University faculty for 38 years.

“ROOFTOP VIEW LBI”: This painting is part of Rider University’s exhibit of watercolors by Professor Harry I. Naar. “Watercolors: Observed and Imagined” is on display in the Rider University Art Gallery in the Bart Luedeke Center through November 30. An artist’s talk is Wednesday, November 7 at 7 p.m. Listed in Who’s Who in American Art, Naar has exhibited his work in numerous one-person and group exhibitions throughout the country and abroad, and his work is included in numerous private and public collections. The Rider University Art Gallery is located in the Bart Luedeke Center on Rider University’s campus, 2038 Lawrenceville Road, Lawrenceville.

“In Wilderness” Exhibit at The Nassau Club

“In Wilder ness,” plein air paintings by Silvère Boureau, is at The Nassau Club at 6 Mercer Street through January 6, 2019. The exhibit features images of the natural world, untamed and unaltered by the encroachment of man. Boureau, a resident of Yardley, Pa., for the past 30 years, says, “With a portable easel and paint in a backpack, I scout remote areas both local and further afield (Maine and the Adirondacks) until I find a place that speaks to me. I am prompted to paint a site that has a certain mystery, yet a sense of harmony, balance, and beauty. My intention is to capture and render the spirit of the place with minimal interpretation. “I paint with oil, acrylic, or watercolor or simply use graphite for black and white sketches. The format is usually small due to constraints of time, still it can take 2 or more sessions to complete a painting. Boureau is an independent artist trained and educated in France. He reg u larly shows his work in galleries locally and in New York City. His paintings and murals are largely represented in retail and health care facilities, the corporate world, and private residences. For more information, visit www.sivereboureau.com.

“Masters of Illusion” At Morven Museum

Morven Museum & Garden has partnered with the John F. Peto Studio Museum in Island Heights to present “Masters of Illusion: The Legacy of John F. Peto,” a new look at trompe l’oeil art in New Jersey. Trompe l’oeil, pronounced “tromp loi,” is a French phrase meaning “to deceive the eye,” which is used to describe paintings that create the illusion of a threedimensional scene. The exhibit runs November 15 t hrough May 12, 2019, with an opening reception on Wednesday, November 14 at 6 p.m. Born in Philadelphia in 1854, John Frederick Peto has been recognized as one of America’s most accomplished trompe l’oeil artists. After studying at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Peto moved to Island Heights, New Jersey, where he played cor net in the Methodist Camp and worked quietly out of the public eye. In addition to Peto’s paintings, the exhibition w ill feature Peto’s photography done in and around Island Heights. The John F. Peto Studio

DVD REVIEW

Exploring Parallel Worlds in Midtown Manhattan and “The Man In the High Castle”

f ter t hree seasons of A mazon Prime’s The Man In the High Castle, I have parallel worlds on the brain. Walking in the city last week I was acutely aware of the dual realities of the Manhattan of memory and Manhattan 2018. While most people in the midtown crowds were seeing what was there, I was seeing what was no longer there. Adapted from Philip K. Dick’s novel of the same name, this extraordinary series encourages a distrust of accepted knowledge, such as the one-time assumption that someone like Donald Trump could never be elected president. The action begins in 1962, 17 years after Germany and Japan won the war. New York City is the capital of the American Reich, Japan rules the Pacific States, and the hallowed wartime image of the sailor kissing the nurse in Times Square on VJ Day exists only as one of a series of scenes from a subversive film containing documentary evidence that the Allies actually defeated the Axis Powers. The Most Wanted Man in occupied America is the mysterious personage in the “high castle” who put the apparent newsreel together and released it into the hands of the Resistance. Nazi Symbols in the Subway In fall 2015 a publicity campaign heralding the first season of The Man In the High Castle blanketed a car on the S train shuttling between Grand Central and Times Square. Along with posters advertising the series, the seats on either side of the aisle were covered with Axis imagery, on one side a travesty of the American flag with the Nazi cross displacing the stars, while the seats opposite displayed a similar violation of the Stars and Stripes by Imperial Japan’s Rising Sun. The ads remained until complaints from passengers led Governor Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio to call on Amazon to pull them, the mayor declaring the campaign “irresponsible and offensive to World War II and Holocaust survivors, their families, and countless other New Yorkers.” A year later, in the aftermath of the never-gonna-happen 2016 election, Amazon publicized the second season with a block-long poster on Times Square that shows the Statue of Liberty performing the Heil Hitler salute over a silhouette of the Manhattan skyline. The Other Times Square I had a parallel-worlds moment on my recent visit to the city when a Japanese tourist standing with his back to Times Square asked me how to get to Times Square. There it was right behind him big as life. Yet it was and it wasn’t. The 2018 version he was looking for was not the moviehouse heaven of penny arcade America I bonded with as a teenager from Indiana staring wide-eyed at Hollywood romanticism writ large on gigantic floodlit movie billboards. Here was this earnest but disoriented middle-aged gentleman looking as if he’d just landed on 42nd Street through a crack between worlds, fresh from Imperial San Fran-

cisco, an alien in the enemy territory of the American Reich. I pointed over his shoulder, “There it is.” He turned around and nodded, “Ah,” not all that impressed, and I couldn’t help saying, “But that’s not it, that’s not the real Times Square.” I started to ask “Any chance you’ve seen this series, The Man in –” but he was giving me worried looks, taking his leave with a hurried bow as he plunged into the digital phantasmagoria of what used to be called The Great White Way. My Times Square alternate reality is epitomized by the photograph of James Dean striding along on pavement gleaming darkly fresh with rain near the spot where the sailor kissed the nurse. The young actor bound for fame and death is hatless, hands jammed in his overcoat pockets, cigarette in his mouth, eyes cast up and to the side in the general direction of the smoke rings that would have been drifting from the giant Camel’s cigarette ad in 1955. He’s walking toward

thing to do.” What attracted the British native was “precisely the notion of ‘What if they had won and we’d lost?’ And so you suddenly had Piccadilly Circus full of German SS officers walking arm-in-arm with the local girls.” According to an interview with the original showrunner Frank Spotnitz, formerly of The X-Files, the BBC and other networks were afraid to take the series on not only because the material was “dangerous,” but because mounting such a show would be “massively expensive.” Amazon had the money to fund it and counted on the fact that so controversial a show would “stand out in a very crowded marketplace.” A Nazi Don Draper The Spotnitz article on cnet features an image of Rufus Sewell as John Smith walk ing for t h f rom a conf lag rat ion wrapped in black leather, with a caption describing him as “a ruthless Nazi villain.” While Smith is ruthless when he

42nd Street and the old New York Times building at One Times Square, which in The Man in the High Castle’s vision of Nazi New York is draped in an immense red banner emblazoned with the sacred swastika. The Ridley Scott Connection Amazon Prime is about to film the fourth season of a series that HBO must be wishing was theirs. For a start, it’s difficult to imagine HBO or any other cable network passing up a project with Ridley Scott’s name on it. This is after all the special effects master who made the 1982 masterpiece Blade Runner, from Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? In an interview on ew.com, Scott recounts the time he screened scenes from Blade Runner for Dick, who “was kind of stunned,” asking Scott if he’d read The Man in the High Castle. When Scott confessed that he hadn’t, Dick said, “‘Good lord, this seems to be very derived from High Castle.’” So Scott read the novel and decided that making a series from it would be “a really challenging

has to be, he’s no more your stereotypical Nazi villain than Jon Hamm’s ad-spinning genius is in Mad Men. In fact, Sewell’s Obergruppenführer of the American Reich has developed into as attractively compelling and mysterious a presence as Hamm’s Don Draper. A former U.S. Army intelligence officer who became a member of the SS and has risen to the leadership of the Nazi high command in America by season 2, he has all the brutal attributes, ordering and overseeing the deaths of enemies including some within the party, one of whom he kills with his bare hands when the life of his “diseased” son is at risk due to Nazi purity standards. While his devotion to his family seems at first to be his only redeeming quality, he commands every scene with quiet authority suggestive of inner depths and by the third season he’s aware that the reality he’s living in is not the only one. Asked by an interviewer at the 2018 Comic Con convention his reaction to reviewers who find the series strikingly relevant to the worldwide rise of authoritarian rulers, Sewell says that he prefers

not to think of a show set in a parallel universe as topical: “It’s about how people manage to live their lives by becoming their own heroes and constructing a narrative for themselves so that they don’t even have to lie -- it’s just a new truth.” Several times he refers to the situation as “hitching his wagon to a monster” that will destroy his family unless he acquires more and more power. Imperial San Francisco You won’t find the character John Smith in Philip K. Dick’s novel, which takes place almost entirely in Japanese-occupied San Francisco and Neutral Zone locales in Colorado and Wyoming. Presumably the New York plotline has been created and developed by Spotnitz, Eric Overmyer, and a team of writers. The weird no-man’s-land of the Neutral Zone is amusingly evocative of westerns, with a sinister marshal and lots of action, most of it involving the closest thing to a romantic couple in the series, Joe Blake (Luke Kleintank), an agent of the Reich whose father is a high ranking member of the SS, and Juliana Crain (Alexa Davalos), a beautiful warrior with lethal Judo skills who joins the Resistance in place of her murdered half-sister Trudy (Conor Leslie). A typical High Castle wrinkle is that Trudy reappears alive and well in season 2. John Smith’s west coast counterpart is Trade Minister Tagomi, played by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa in a performance as subtle and sympathetic as it is magnetic. Tagomi shares the other-reality awareness and is a dedicated user of the I Ching. Besides watching television newsreel scenes of an apparently victorious America, he lands between worlds at the end of the first season, finding himself on a bench in San Francisco’s bustling Union Square in October 1962 with newspaper headlines about the Cuban missile crisis in view. A key character in both the novel and the series is Robert Childan (Brennan Brown), a San Francisco antique dealer who specializes in Americana and provides the series with one its quirkiest characters. Asked on screenertv.com about “playing nervous,” Brown refers to bringing humor to the show “without ever winking at the audience.” What’s important to him is that when something is humorous, it’s “uncomfortably so, and organically funny.” A New York Type If you’ve ever dealt with collectors and dealers in New York, whether they trade in books, antiques, or vinyl, you’ll appreciate how skillfully Brown’s Robert Childan portrays the type whose vocation is based on understanding the premise of parallel worlds. He’s someone who values the past, both in mercenary and aesthetic terms. He sees through eras, seasons, periods, fashions, and iconic locales like Times Square to what once was and what may be again in the hands of magicians like those who created The Man in the High Castle. —Stuart Mitchner

MUSIC REVIEW

New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Opens Princeton Series with Stellar Violinist

ew Jersey Symphony Orchestra opened its 2018 -19 Pr inceton concer t series this past Friday night at Richardson Auditorium. Led by guest conductor Christoph König, the Orchestra launched a season focused on the theme Music Speaks! — performances inspired by poetry, stories, and fantasy. Friday night’s concert in particular presented an outstanding violin soloist in a work not often heard. König and the New Jersey Symphony began the performance with a work based on a character-rich and swashbuckling theatrical drama. Nineteenthcent u r y G er ma n comp os er R ichard Strauss was t he master of t he tone poem — a single-movement symphonic work often conveying a story. Strauss’ 1888 Don Juan, Opus 20 tells the story of the fabled lothario, with all of his mistresses well represented in the orchestra. Christoph König’s youthful looks belie his vast conducting experience; a native of Germany, König is music director of the Solistes Européens Lu xembourg and guest conducts ensembles worldwide. From the outset of Don Juan, König drew a full sound from the New Jersey Sy mphony players, and even though the volume level was high, the instrumentalists found variety and direction within the sound. Don Juan’s mistresses were musically represented by solo instruments, most notably by concertmaster Eric Wyrick on violin and principal oboist Robert Ingliss. A clean horn section presented Don Juan’s character solidly, and König kept the musical flow moving. König effectively used grand pauses in the music to build drama in the close of the story, ending Strauss’ tone poem in heroic fashion. As the world closes in on the 100th anniversary of the end of the “war to end all wars” this month, New Jersey Symphony looked toward a work from World War II in Benjamin Britten’s Violin Concerto, Opus 15. Britten came to America from England on the cusp of the war, and although he eventually returned to England, he composed a number of significant works while in the United States, including the 1939 Violin Concerto. This three-movement concerto is not often performed, no doubt because of its technical demands on the soloist, but Italian-born guest violinist Augustin Hadelich had no trouble handling the vir tuosic requirements and non-stop playing of this work. Perhaps acknowledging the worldwide warlike conditions of the time, Britten opened the Violin Concerto with a martial five-note rhythmic figure from the

timpani. Hadelich’s violin solo glided from note to note in continuous lines which built in intensity while punctuated by lower strings. Hadelich’s playing was rhythmic and driving in a solo line which never stopped, and the soloist easily switched back and forth between dramatic and lyrical sections, with the five-note motive always present. The second movement in particular displayed a violin solo line that seemed slightly demonic — not at all melodic, but cohesive as played by Hadelich, well accompanied by a pair of bas soons. Hadelich played the cadenza to this movement introspectively, well executing the technically difficult and unusual musical effects. Especially impressive was his playing pizzicato with his fingering hand while holding an extended note with the violin bow. In another sign of the times, Britten’s closing movement to this Concerto as unsettling in harmonies and its heavy mood. Based on the Baroque passacaglia form, this movement’s nine variations captured Britten’s despair over both the Spanish Civil War taking place and the impending war in Europe at large. Hadelich’s solo line seemed to be asking a perpetual question of “why,” and when Hadelich and König brought the work to a close, the silence in the hall was deafening. New Jersey Sy mphony closed t his season-opener with a 19th-century orchestral work capturing a geographic region. Rober t Schumann composed his 1850 Symphony No. 3 in E-flat Major in tribute to Germany’s Rhine River, as the Rhineland played a significant role in Schumann’s too-short life. As played by the NJSO, the opening movement of Schumann’s “Rhenish” symphony became crisper as it went along, and König found graceful dynamic swells in keeping with the flowing R hine R iver. S chumann marked the opening and closing movements “Lebhaft” — “full of life” — and the Orchestra played both movements on a grand scale, with the horns declaiming melodic themes in the first movement particularly well. König took a broad approach to t h e s e con d m ove m e nt scherzo, emphasizing the “very solid” atmosphere called for by Schumann’s markings. Throughout the Symphony, König allowed the Orchestra to play f r e e l y w h e n ap p r op r i ate , b r i n g i n g out dynamic sforzandi that connected this work to Beethoven. The music effectively picked up speed in the final movement, as the Orchestra brought Schumann’s picturesque Symphony to a joyous close. —Nancy Plum

New Jersey Symphony will present its next Princeton performance on Friday, January 19, 2019 at 8 p.m. in Richardson Auditorium. Conducted by NJSO Music Director Xian Zhang, this concert will feature soprano Dawn Upshaw in music of Gustav Mahler and American composer Maria Schneider.

Music and Theater Choreographer Lang Finds Inspiration In The Expected and the Unexpected

There is a local connection attached to the return of Jessica Lang Dance to McCarter Theatre on Friday, November 16. The indemand choreographer has created a work in collaboration with Stephen Holl, the architect responsible for Princeton University’s $330 million Lewis Center for the Arts, which opened just over a year ago. “I’m interested in anything that kind of winks at me and says, ‘Make a dance,’ ” said Lang, during a phone conversation between rehearsals of her nine -member company. The “wink” for Tesseracts of Time ( the ter m “te s s erac t” com e s from mathematics and represents the equivalent of a cube in a four-dimensional space) came in the form of a commission from Chicago’s Harris Theater for Music and Dance in 2015. It was an experience that Lang embraced. “We had a great time. He was so involved,” she said of the famed architect. “It wasn’t like, ‘Here’s a book on my work, good luck.’ He was in it with me, right there in the studio, making decisions. We had a lot of meetings about what he designed for me, which was too big at first so we had to make adjustments. Some of it is built, and some is projected. So there are some really nice surprises that happen

throughout the piece.” Holl will be on hand for the November 16 performance, and will join Lang for a discussion after the show about the relationship between architecture and dance. Raised in Doylestown, Pa., and trained at The School of The Pennsylvania Ballet and The Pennsylvania Academy of Ballet, Lang knew by the time she was 14 that she wanted to be a choreographer. But training as a dancer remained her focus. She graduated from The Juilliard School in 1997, and was accepted into the company of maver ick choreographer Twyla Tharp. “Working with her and witnessing her as a creator was amazing. And it definitely showed me the profession,” Lang said. “When the company folded in 1999, she just sat us down and told us, and that was it. We had three more months of work with her, and that allowed me time to think about what I really wanted to do. I didn’t rush. In the not rushing, I think I was able to give myself time to play and dream and set myself off on a path toward making dances and hopefully making a living at it.” B e nj a m i n H a rk a r v y, Lang’s former teacher at Juilliard and Pennsylvania Ballet, advised her to go af-

ter commissions instead of trying to start her own company. She took his advice. Almost immediately, her talent as a choreographer was noticed. She was soon making dances for American Ballet Theatre’s ABT II, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago’s Hubbard Street II, and the Pennsylvania Ballet. “There was no turning back after that,” Lang said. “I started my own group 13 years later. I got a grant from The Joyce Foundation, made a nonprofit, formed a board, and here we are. But I still freelance.” Just a few weeks ago, American Ballet Theatre premiered L ang’s 102nd work, Garden Blue. “Lang is arguably the most important woman choreographer to emerge since the days of Twyla Tharp,” William Lockwood, McCarter’s special programming director, commented in a written statement. “A common theme in much of her work is the integration of design, music, and dance; she is as interested in imagining shapes and compositions on stage as she is in steps, combining bodies, music, and an architectural element.” Also on the McCarter program is A Thousand Yard Stare, which Lockwood saw first in a workshop production. “I was determined to bring it to McCarter,” he said. “It represents her in-

(Photo by Todd Rosenberg) dividual voice at its highest point, illustrating her mastery of visual composition and her gift for conveying emotion with simplicity and power.” Set to the adagio movement from Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 15, the work’s title is “a reference to t he linger ing trau ma that combat veterans can suffer from the rituals of war — marching crawling, trudging,” Lockwood added. “Lang pulls no punches, it is not an easy work to watch.” When Lang last brought her company to McCarter, they performed in the Berlind Theater. This time, they are on the larger Matthews stage. The appearance is part of a 19-city tour, which will include a premiere at the Annenberg Center in Philadelphia on November 30 of a work called Us/We. Lang describes it as “a reflection of what we’re dealing with around the world,” she said. “It takes us through the global idea of humanity and brings us straight into the multicultural diversity of New York’s five boroughs before going back out into the world. It’s very different from what we have done in the past, but its very purposeful and right now.” As her company continues to take her dances on tour, Lang finds time to create works for other dance troupes as well. Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre and the Birmingham Royal Ballet are among her current clients. “I have a really good balance right now,” she said. “What I prefer most is making dance. But I have had tremendous success at that, and at running a company. I am very lucky.” —Anne Levin

Vocal scores will be provided. Members of the community gather together at these events for the common and joyful enterprise of making music, to sing through for their own pleasure the great works in choral literature, with chorus, orchestra, and soloists as the works require. The meetings are informal readings in which any musically interested person may join the chorus. There are no separate rehearsals and no auditions.

Refreshments will be served at intermission. Admission is $10 for singers, or annual membership; free for students and non-singing guests. The church is at Route 206 and Cherry Hill Road.

PSO Soundtracks Series Screens “The Red Violin”

The Princeton Symphony Orchestra goes to the movies on Wednesday, November 14 at 6:30 p.m. with a screening of the award-winning film The Red Violin as part of its Soundtracks series with the Princeton Public Library. Directed by François Girard and released in 1999, the movie centers on a redcolored violin which inspires passion as it finds its way through three centuries, over geographic borders, through the hands of successive owners, and, ultimately, onto the auction block in present-day Montreal. Actor Samuel L. Jackson portrays the character of Charles Morritz, a violin expert who seeks to authenticate and value the violin for Canadian customs assessment. Violinist Joshua Bell served as music consultant and soloist for the film’s soundtrack. The film’s composer John Corigliano received the 2000 Oscar for Best Music, Original Score. The movie is 130 minutes

of America. The film is presented in advance of the Princeton Symphony Orchestra’s Sunday, November 18 Rachel Barton Pine Plays Paganini concert. Admission to the film is free.

Stand-up comic Kendra Dawsey will perform at a private residence in Princeton on Saturday, November 10. Doors open at 8 p.m. and the performance starts at 8:30 p.m. The show benefits Souther ners on New G rou nd (SONG), a regional Queer Liberation organization made up of black people, people of color, immigrants, undocumented people, people with disabilities, working class and rural and small town LGBTQ people in the South. Dawsey is a stand-up comic who has performed in clubs and showcases in New York City and New England. She garners humor from her identity and experiences by blending anecdote with higher concepts. Never too proud to laugh at herself, Kendra endears audiences by inviting them to laugh with her. This event serves to launch a new giving circle based in New Jersey, supporting SONG’s kindred organizations working across the South for liberation in our lifetime. The organization plans to pool funds and collectively decide what organizations to donate those funds to, as well as engaging in political education and exploring the work we are supporting. The event will be held in a one-story, carpeted home near the Princeton Shopping Center. There is one step up to a brick patio and then another step up to the door. There is no wheelchair-accessible bathroom. Pay what you can; the suggested donation is $5-20. RSVP at https:// tinyurl.com/y92xdvs8 for the event address.

CINEMA REVIEW

Fri. 11/09/18 to Thurs. 11/15/18

What They Had

Classy and Trashy Sisters Square Off in Fish-Out-of-Water Comedy

anica (Tika Sumpter) and Tanya (Tiffany Haddish) may have been raised by the same mother (Whoopi Goldberg), but they’re still as different as night and day. The former is a successful businesswoman who was recently promoted to vice president of a leading Madison Avenue advertising firm. By contrast, the latter has spent the last five years behind bars while her sis was climbing the corporate ladder. Against her better judgment, Danica decides to take Tanya under her wing when she’s paroled. So she not only lets her move into her upscale apartment, but helps her land a gig as a barista at a trendy coffee shop. Trouble is, the prison-hardened Tanya is so rough around the edges that she has no idea how to behave in polite society. Consequently, she can often be found cursing, flirting, menacing, and hurling racial slurs behind the counter indiscriminately. Tanya should thank her lucky stars that her gentlemanly boss, Frank (Omari Hardwick), has a crush on her sister. Otherwise, her job might be in jeopardy. Too bad Danica’s already in a relationship with a shady character (Mehcad Brooks) she’s never met and has only interacted with over the internet, or she might give Mr. Right a chance. Thus unfolds Nobody’s Fool, a fish-out-of-water comedy writ-

ten and directed by Tyler Perry. Tyler’s films invariably feature a sassy, trash-talking sister, whether played by him in drag as Madea or, as in this case, by an actual actress, the irrepressible Tiffany Haddish. Haddish has been hotter than a pistol since stealing every scene in Girls Trip a year ago. Since then, she’s hosted Saturday Night Live and co-starred in Uncle Drew, The Oath, and Night School. The problem with Nobody’s Fool is that it feels like Tiffany briefly parachuted in to do her crude shtick and split without worrying about developing any chemistry with the rest of the cast. Yes, she is the comedienne of the moment and, if all you’re looking for is her coarse act, there’s plenty of that lowbrow fare to enjoy. But when Haddish is not lighting up the screen with her overthe-top antics, what’s left is just a predictable, poorly-plotted, Tyler Perry morality play. Fair (H). Rated R for sexuality, drug use, ethnic slurs, and pervasive profanity. Running time: 110 minutes. Production Studio: Tyler Perry Studios/BET Films/Paramount Players. Studio: Paramount Pictures. —Kam Williams

PSC BRAND AD

On October 17, R ider University hosted a building dedication ceremony to reveal a $5.5 million gift by former TE Connectivity CEO Thomas J. Lynch ‘75. No one was more surprised by the unveiling of the building’s name than his best friend and fellow Rider alumnus, Joseph Adler ‘75, ‘90. Held outside North Hall, the ceremony announced Lynch’s $5.5 million gift, one of the largest individual gifts ever received in University history. As part of the multimillion-dollar pledge, North Hall was renamed Lynch Adler Hall. The renaming was a surprise not only for Lynch’s longtime friend, but for most of the University community. “There are so many moments in my life that I attribute to Joe Adler,” Lynch said. “It seemed natural that if I was going to do something like this, he had to be a part of it. None of this would have happened without him.” Lynch and Adler have been friends since their grade school days. When it came time to decide upon a college to attend, Lynch followed in his friend’s footsteps. “Coming to Rider wasn’t a very strategic decision on my part,” Lynch said. “When my best friend, Joe Adler, decided to go to Rider, it sounded good to me so I decided to go to Rider.” Ly nch Adler Hall is a 21,000 - square -foot academic building that features nine classrooms, two seminar rooms, 16 faculty and departmental offices, and a multipurpose conference room. Completed in 2011, the building is certified Gold by The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System. Lynch’s unrestricted gift will be used to support some of the University’s highest priorities. Several multimillion dollar gifts have bolstered Rider’s recent fundraising efforts and have supported student scholar-

ships and campus improvements. The University raised a record amount of funds in the fiscal year that ended in June. Lynch earned a bachelor of science in commerce with a major in accounting from Rider after only three years. He is currently serving his second term on Rider’s Board of Trustees, having previously served as Trustee from 2005 to 2014. He is also currently the executive chairman of the Board of Directors of TE Connectivity, a world leader in connectivity and sensor solutions with 75,000 employees and $12 billion in sales. He served as the company’s chief executive officer from January 2006 to March 2017. Before TE Connectivity, he was president of Tyco Engineered Products & Services and executive vice president of Motorola. Lynch received R ider’s Sesquicentennial Medal of Excellence in 2015 and an Alumni Recognition Award from the College of Business Administration in 2003. Adler also earned his degree, a bachelor of science in commerce with a major in accounting, in three years. He added a master of business administration from Rider in 1990. Adler worked for more than 30 years in the food industry. He recently retired from Pinnacle Foods, which manufactures and markets branded food products such as Birds Eye vegetables and Duncan Hines baking mixes, as a vice president and controller. His father, Jerrold Adler ‘49, and sister, Karen Adler ‘82, also graduated from Rider. For many years Adler taught as an adjunct professor in Rider’s College of Business Administration. Lynch says he wanted to give back to ensure that f ut ure Tom Ly nchs and Joe Adlers could receive the same opportunities to unleash and develop their potential at Rider. “I want to make the opportunity to come to Rider as available as possible. That’s simply how I look at it,” he said.

our son just threw a baseball through the window; the wind blew the patio table over, and broke the glass top; the king-size mirror fell off the wall — who to call? Nelson Glass, of course! Since 1949, this has been the place to go, whether for an emergency, a quick fix, or a long-range project.

IT’S NEW To Us

Nelson Glass & Aluminum is unique in Princeton to day. A n i ndep endent, family-owned and operated business that continues to provide Princeton and the area with knowledgeable, friendly service and quality products. It has a proud history. In 1949, Bob Nelson ret ur ned to his Pr inceton hometown with an engineering degree from Cornell and a goal of establishing his own business. It didn’t take long to discover that Princeton lacked a glass company, and he set out to fill that need. Full-Service After learning the ropes of the glass industry, he set up shop at a Nassau Street location. And, the rest, as they say, is history! “In those days, the bulk of the business was cutting flat automobile glass,” explains Robbie Nelson, Bob Nelson’s daughter, and the

firm’s current owner. “The store evolved into repair — especially broken windows. Dad saw a need, and he was always concerned with being a full-service glass company.” After 10 years on Nassau Street, the firm moved to 45 Spring Street, where it has remained ever since. It continued to grow and evolve, beginning to provide aluminum storm doors and windows, then mirror work, shower doors, insulated glass, sliding patio doors, and table tops. Work began to be divided between commercial and residential projects. Nelson Glass has always been known for its attention to detail and painstaking care for each project. As always, the company still does things by hand. The expert staff will customcut all mirrors, and make perfectly-fitting glass table tops. They also replace defective (foggy) double-paned insulated glass. “The big thing now is doubled-paned insulated glass,” says Robbie Nelson. “It can get moisture between the panes though, and then needs to be replaced. Probably our most common job is replacing defective insulated glass.” That is just one of the many services the company provides. Glass for picture frames, Plexiglas and safety glass, repair of leaded windows, application of solar film to windows to help prevent fading of interior items — the list goes on and on.

Fixing rotted wood window frames is another service. Showroom Display “People often come in and bring a broken storm window,” points out Nelson, “and then they’ll see the showroom display and find something else they want. Maybe they need a new storm door, for example, or a new glass table top. “When they come in, they can meet the staff. And we do the work here. We create the new storm door for you or make the repairs right here. Then, if there is ever a problem later, the customer can come back and see us. We will be here. We always stand by our work. Our reputation means everything. We always take pride in doing a good job.” Now, Nelson Glass is embarking on a new adventure. After nearly 60 years on Spring Street, the firm has moved to a new location at 741 Alexander Road, Suite 7/8. Ch a ng i ng t i m e s br i ng changing needs, and Nelson Glass has always adapted to new markets and directions. “We started when Princeton was a village,” remarks Nelson, “Spring Street was a good location in the heart of town. But as times have changed, and Princeton has grown, we need more space and more parking. “The Alexander Road location is just right. We needed a level loading dock, and it offers more space. We’ll go from 3,500 square to 5,000 square feet. It’s still

create a local thanksgiving feast

a Princeton address, and there is lots of free parking. Excellent Staff “We’re looking forward to having more room in the shop and in the showroom. I’m also happy to have a bigger office. We will also be adding more staff. Finding the right staff has always been very important to us, and we have always been fortunate to have an excellent staff at Nelson. “We have a new office manager, Joanne McGettigan, who has 15 years’ experience in the glass industry. She has the same talent for customer service that our longtime office manager Alice Kent has. Customers will be pleased to know that although Alice is semi-retired, she will be on hand at least three days a week in our new location.” The timing of the move coincides with a building project at the Spring Street location. In the works for two years, the plan includes the addition of six stacked terraced apartments atop the original building. These rental units will include one single-bedroom, three twobedroom, and two threebedroom apartments. One affordable unit will be available. Designed by Princeton architect Joshua Zinder of JZA+D, the project allows for 2,000 square feet of commercial space on the existing first level. The apartments will feature outdoor glass balcony railings, and after completion, the structure will be known as the Nelson Glass House. “We need more housing in downtown Princeton,” says Nelson, who also owns

Princeton Mainstay, Nelson Glass & Aluminum, Moves To New Location on Alexander Road

ON THE MOVE: “I wanted to leave a legacy for Dad and my family, and this was the right time to make the move. We have the construction project going on at our Spring Street building, and we found this great Alexander Road location.” Robbie Nelson (center), owner of Nelson Glass & Aluminum and daughter of its founder, the late Bob Nelson, is shown with officer manager Joanne McGettigan (left) and longtime former office manager Alice Kent (right). the house next door at 47 Spring Street, currently divided into two apartments. “With the new addition and the house next door, we feel we are keeping the area as a neighborhood. “I wanted to do something my dad would be proud of,” she continues. “I wanted to leave a legacy for him and the family. It’s all about family.” Loyal Customers Nels on G las s has had many loyal customers over the past decades, and continues to add new clients from all over the area. “We want them all to come and see us at the new location, where we will continue to service all their glass needs,” says Nelson. “They can count on us for the cutting and installation. We are a true service operation. We do it all, and we will also help to guide those who want to do it themselves. But for the things that are too big, such as long mirrors or big pieces of glass, they

can rely on us. “Every day is different, with different challenges. We have a wealth of knowledge and experience. We can handle any project — from little jobs to big jobs, w h a te v e r t h e c u s to m e r needs.” While looking forward to this new adventure in the annals of Nelson Glass history, Robbie Nelson admits to mixed feelings about leaving Spring Street. “The move is bittersweet. I will certainly miss coming here. It’s been a big part of my life. I love Princeton, and I’ll miss the downtown very much. But we will not be far away at all. It’s still a Princeton address, and we can’t wait to welcome all our customers to our new home.” elson Glass & Aluminum hours are Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (609) 9242880.

Bonne Assiette Restaurant in Pennington Serves Classic/Modern French Cuisine

ining out at Bonne Assiette in Pennington is not only a pleasure for the palate, it is a splendid experience on many levels. The welcoming atmosphere, attractive decor with French motif, and attentive service all combine to create a lunch or dinner to remember. As chef/owner Assi Li Ponte

IT’S NEW To Us

says, “I want the people who come here to have a really good time. A great gastronomic experience! This is the hospitality business. You have to be hospitable. And everyone who comes here is treated like a guest.” Opened in 2016 at 23 West Delaware Avenue in Pennington, Bonne Assiette (“good plate” in French) has received a warm welcome, earning high praise from professional food critics and the public alike. “My birthday dinner was held at this charming, delicious restaurant,” says a recent diner. “The French cuisine was over the top. Adding to the occasion, the chef/owner came by our table to personally illustrate his culinary creations. Just superb!” Friendly Host Li Ponte is indeed a friendly host who very much enjoys welcoming guests to his restaurant. The warm, inviting, and uncrowded space inspires a leisurely dining experience. Featuring original exposed wooden ceiling beams and nicely spaced tables, the main dining area seats 30, and a separate private party room also seats 30. Outdoor patio dining is available in

seasonal weather. Li Ponte’s history prior to launching Bonne Assiette is fascinating. Born in Israel to a Spanish father and Moroccan mother, he learned early about cooking. His parents were chefs and owned a restaurant, offering French and Moroccan cuisine. “I grew up in the business,” he recalls. “I really learned cooking at home, and everything I know came from my mother.” Deciding to explore new places and opportunities, he moved to Europe when he was 20, and worked in restaurants in Italy and France. Then, in 1986, he came to the U.S., spending many years in restaurants in New York City. An offer to serve as executive banquet chef at Rat’s Restaurant at the popular Grounds For Sculpture brought him to New Jersey. He always wanted to have his own French restaurant, however, and when space became available at the Pennington location, he did not hesitate. Li Ponte had definite ideas about the cuisine and dining experience he wanted to offer customers. “Everything is organic and non-GMO, and I try to offer the freshest ingredients possible,” he explains. “There is no substitute for organic food. Everything I have is as local as it can be. That is, except for the cheese, which is French! I shop on a daily basis and deal with local farms and suppliers to guarantee the freshest ingredients.” Art Form He offers special recipes, some passed down from his parents, but he is always creating new dishes and flavor com-

binations. “You always want to develop your own creations and come up with something new. Cooking is like any other art form.” Customers will be in for a treat when they can choose from a variety of dishes, including vegetarian and vegan. They may wish to start with appetizers, such as Fois Gras, Escargots Bourguignon, or Moules Frites (Prince Edward Island mussels), among a very popular selection, also including Salmon Tartare and Baked St. Andre Cheese. A variety of soups and salads is always available, and favorite entrees (all served with a side) include roasted French Lavender Chicken, with new potato fondant, mushrooms, heirloom carrots, and pan au jus; and Crevettes Monaco with sweet pink shrimps, wild mushrooms confiture, Parisian gnocchi, and brandy cream sauce. Other popular entrees are Pan-Seared Diver Scallops, with creamed vegetable farro confit and orange beurre blanc; and Magret de Carnad, duck breast with grilled peach, rutabaga puree, and black currant rosehip glaze. There are also seasonal choices, such as Boeuf Bourguignon, a favorite winter dish. Grass-Fed Meat Lunches are equally popular, including hot selections with choice of soup or salad and entree, such as Orange Glazed Organic Faroe Island Salmon with seasonal vegetables and pistou oil; as well as Organic Chicken Breast Tenders with bouquetiere (vegetables) and brandy mustard cream sauce. A variety of sandwiches includes special burgers with grass-fed meat; Filet Mignon Sliders; Roasted Turkey with

apple chutney, bacon, and pomme frites; Smoked Chicken Breast; and Parisian Bistrot Ham and Swiss Cheese, among others. Among the side dishes, French fries are the most popular, reports Chef Li Ponte. “They are really the best-sellers. Twice fried in duck fat, they are a real specialty.” No one who dines at Bonne Assiette skips dessert! The choices tempt the taste buds, and are basically impossible to resist. Among them: the traditional French favorite Creme Brulee; and Opera Cake (three layers of thin almond sponge cake soaked with espresso, filled with ganache and coffee butter cream). And for chocolate lovers: Dome de Chocolate, featuring chocolate dacquoise, filled with raspberry coulis and bittersweet chocolate mousse; also, Marquis de Chocolate, with bittersweet chocolate mousse, chocolate genoise, topped with chocolate mirror and kirsch syrup. Beverages include a range of choices from Perrier and unsweetened iced tea or hot tea to coffee, cappuccino, and espresso. “I try to keep prices as affordable as possible,” points out Li Ponte. Entrees start at $16 and sandwiches at $10. Bonne Assiette is a BYO restaurant, and many customers bring wine to enjoy with their lunch or dinner. Private Party Room Catering is also available, and the restaurant offers a private party room for individual groups, as well gatherings for companies and organizations, including fundraisers. “We support area charities,” notes Li Ponte. “It is very important to give back to the community.” He is very encouraged with the reception Bonne Assiette

DINNER IS SERVED: “I want people to come and experience classic/modern French cuisine; the French way of cooking.” Assi Li Ponte, chef/owner of Bonne Assiette in Pennington, is shown with a sampling of his culinary creations: Filet Mignon, served with potato dauphinois, sauteed asparagus, and béarnaise sauce; Salmon with orange glaze, baby carrots, Nicoise olives, heirloom tomatoes, saba wine reduction, and pistou oil; Diver Scallops, served on a faro and corn confit, topped with orange beurre blanc and micro greens; and Mustard Chicken served with new potato fondant, baby carrots, and haricot verts with brandy mustard sauce. has received from customers from all over the area. “We have had great word-ofmouth. We have many regular customers from Princeton and the area, as well as lots of new people all the time. We are a destination, but we are also getting more foot traffic and walkins, which is a good sign. “It’s great enjoyment for me when the empty plates come back to the kitchen, and when someone tells me how much they enjoyed the food. When I know they appreciate some-

thing I created, this makes all the hard work worthwhile. “Money is not everything. You have to find what makes you happy, and I look forward to giving more people the opportunity to experience what French cuisine is all about.” Bonne Assiette is open Tuesday through Saturday 11:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Sunday is dinner only from 5 to 8:30 p.m. (609) 737-7174.

Coming from Behind to Win Ivy Showdown, PU Football Edges Dartmouth 14-9, Now 8-0

t was a clash of unbeatens that took on the aura of a heavyweight title fight when the Princeton University football team hosted Dartmouth last Saturday. After the rivals, who both entered the day with 7-0 records, traded touchdowns on their first possessions to make it a 7-7 game, the two teams slugged it out in between the 20s with a second quarter safety by Dartmouth being the only additional points scored heading into the final period. Princeton broke through with the knockout blow as senior quar terback John Lovett bulled into the end zone for a five-yard touchdown run with 6:33 remaining in regulation to provide the margin of victory as the Tigers prevailed 14-9 before a crowd of 8,041 at Princeton Stadium. Ref lecting on the battle, Tiger head coach Bob Surace tipped his hat to both squads. “It felt like Rocky I with two teams slugging it out,” said Surace with a relieved chuckle. “ We have t rem endou s respect for them; it is the same on both sides. That was a slugfest; it lived up to everything everybody said it was going to be. Our team talks about heart and passion and I know they talk about the same things. We

have played some great games against them, and for this to be an outcome we are one play better. I can’t thank our senior leaders enough.” Surace is thankful to have senior star Lovett on his side. “He is incredible, he is incredible to coach,” said Surace of Lovett, who played the game with a cast on his injured left arm. “It is just full go on every play and everything he does in life. He just attacks with enthusiasm.” Lovett, for his part, never lost his enthusiasm even as the Big Green repeatedly stymied a Princeton offense that was leading the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) in scoring with 50.7 points a game coming into Saturday. “Coach Gleeson (offensive coordinator Sean Gleeson) does an incredible job of instilling confidence in our offense and our guys,” said Lovett, who rushed for 54 yards and two touchdowns and passed for 161 yards in the victory. “He believes in us 100 percent and we believe in each other. For us to be facing adversity today and for us to put together drives at the end of the game when it counts shows t he se nior leadership we have on our offense. It is a credit to our defense for keeping us in the entire game the whole time.”

T he Pr inceton of fense started to find a rhythm when it went on a 91-yard march later in the third quarter into the fourth even though the drive ended with the Tigers being stopped on fourth and inches. “That was a big drive,” said Lovett. “The goal is to score on every single drive so that was failed goal but I think that was a good drive for the team. It gave us confidence.” After the Princeton defense forced a three-and-out, the Tigers got a short field taking over with the ball at the Big Green 34. Four plays later, Lovett made his gamewinning TD run. “I know my number was called and I needed to get into the end zone,” recalled Lovett. “That is all I was thinking about.” Lovett credited Princeton’s offensive line for giving him room to operate. “We stand by those guys in the trenches; they are the heart and soul of our offense,” said Lovett. “All of us have full confidence in all of those guys and we love playing with them.” Princeton senior linebacker and co-captain Tom Johnson led a defensive charge that battled a senior-laden Dartmouth offensive line whose starters averaged 295 pounds a player. “It was a credit to coach

Verbs (defensive coordinator Steve Verbit) and our defensive staff,” said Johnson, who made a team-high 10 tackles in the win. “Our plan was to be gap solid and not to do anything too crazy. All of our stress was being where we needed to be and doing our jobs. We were able to do that on most plays today.” The unit was primed for the challenge of holding the fort after Dartmouth stopped Princeton’s 91-yard march. “The same way these guys are expected to get that one yard, we are expected to, if that doesn’t happen, get out there and compete,” said Johnson. “It is awesome, we love it.” Surace, for his part, loved seeing the patience exhibited by his players in outlasting the Big Green. “There was a great calm offensively that if the defense could continue to play like they were that we were going to have opportunities, and that at some point we had to get one in,” said Surace. “ We we r e pr ob ably a play better; it wasn’t like these two teams were miles apart. Sitting there watching that game, it was ‘holy cow that group we are going up against, they are outstanding.’ There is not a big weakness. As the game went on, we were a little bit thicker on our blocks. At times, we won some, they won some. A team like that can break

compete in playoffs,” said Lovett. “It doesn’t matter if you are playing the best team in the league or the worst team. Every game has the same amount of importance so we are attacking practices the same way throughout the entire year. That is what has led to our success this far and we are not going to change that mentality.” —Bill Alden

As Mimi Asom soaked in the emotion of her Senior Day ceremony with Princeton Un iversit y women’s soccer team last Saturday, she was determined to extend her career beyond the evening. Princeton needed a win over visiting Penn in the season finale to clinch a share of the Iv y League title with the Quakers and earn the league’s automatic berth to the upcoming NCAA tournament. “I love this team; it has been my whole world for the last four years,” said senior forward Asom. “We just went in with a mindset that we are playing because we want to spend another week together. We want to got to NCAAs to have another week to train and practice together.” Asom ensured that the Tigers would get that extra time together, tallying the lone goal in Pr inceton’s 1-0 win over Penn. As a result of the victory, Princeton clinched a tie for the Ivy League title with the Quakers and earned the league’s automatic berth to the NCAA tournament. The Tigers, now 11-3-2 overall, will be playing at Texas Tech (13-5-2 overall) in the opening round of the NCAA tournament on November 9. Asom’s tally came nearly 31 minutes into the contest as she got possession, turned, and fired the ball into the net. “One of our coaches, Mike Poller, told me I needed to stop doing moves and just take touches, pass people and shoot, “ said Asom, a 5’5 native of Dallas, Texas who has 12 goals this season and 43 in her career, third best in program history. “So I just took a big touch and the girl wasn’t expecting it and it was just placement from there.” From there, the Princeton defense stymied the Quakers. “This back line is one of the strongest I have ever played with, all five of them just work so hard,” said Asom. “They are are so organized and disciplined; we would be nothing this season without them.” The Tigers saved their season with a late surge, earning four straight wins after a 3-2 loss to Brown

on October 6. “We just developed this mindset where we stopped putting as much pressure on ourselves,” said Asom. “It might not be in our hands at this point, but all we can do is work our hardest day in, day out and trust in each other and get through it.” Pr inceton head coach Sean Driscoll has developed a deeper trust with his players, going through a tough fall as his mother lost her battle with cancer, passing away last week. “There has been a lot of emotion all season really, the kids have had to endure a tough time in my life and they continue to inspire me and help me,” said Driscoll. “There is emotion in that and there is emotion in being a senior day. It is a very selfless group of kids; each one of them said this I don’t care how much I play tonight as long as the team gets the result. The team comes first; that is a message you want for every team.” Driscoll was not surprised that Asom tallied the goal that got Princeton the winning result. “She has been incredibly consistent over her career,” said Driscoll, noting that Asom had 12 goals as a freshman, nine as a sophomore, and 10 last fall. “It is hard to score goals at any level, and certainly in this league it is not easy. Penn conceded four goals all season and only one in the league so they are very, very good. It was very fitting on Senior Night that she was able to get a goal and help us win another game.” In Driscoll’s v iew, his defensive unit, which has yielded 0.56 goals a game this fall, has helped Princeton pull out a number of wins. “They have been really, really good,” said Driscoll, who has used Olivia Sheppard, Lucy Rickerson, Tatum Gee, Eve Hewins, Emily Hilliard-Arce, and Aza Keohan on the back line with Natalie Grossi starring at goalie. “That group has contributed to 12 shutouts in a season where we came in with a new back line and kind of

a new midfield. They kept us in a lot of games, that is the reality of it. When you don’t concede goals, you have got a chance to win games. P ro d u ci ng a n u n e ve n start to Ivy play, it looked like Princeton had a slim chance of defending its league title. “Going 1-1-1, every game after that was a must win, and so with their backs to the wall, they pitched four straight shutouts, “ said Driscoll. “We had a meeting with the captains and myself; they brought up some very good points. They rallied around the team and did an even better job of leading. The team followed suit, you could see it to win at Columbia (1-0 on October 14); that was the team that had the best record against us since I have been here. Then we beat Harvard here (2-0 on October 20) and then found a way to get result in terrible conditions at Cornell (2-0 on October 27) and then beat a very good Penn team.” With Princeton having advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals last fall, Driscoll believes this year’s team possesses the resolve to make a run in the national tourney. “We are certainly on a high; we are not conceding any goals, so that always makes you an interesting team to play against,” said Driscoll. “At the end of the day, team success comes down to confidence and belief. There is a very clear belief in this group; they have been through a lot this year. This championship is the most challenging one we have won. Asom, for her part, is going to savor her extra time with the group, no matter how long it extends. “This team has an extreme amount of talent but furthermore so much heart and those are some of the most impor tant things,” said Asom. “Whether it is one game in the tournament or three or four, it doesn’t really matter as long as we give it 100 percent and I know we will.” —Bill Alden

Coming Off Disappointing 2017-18 Campaign, PU Men’s Hoops Aiming to Regain Winning Ways There will be a new look around Princeton’s Jadwin Gym as the college basketball season tips off this week with a new four-sided video board hanging over the court and a revamped seating configuration. Coming off a disappointing 2017-18 season that saw the Princeton Universit y men’s basketball team go 13-16 overall and 5-9 Ivy League, the Tigers are vowing to be new and improved. “I think, after last year, we refocused as a team,” said senior guard and co-captain Myles Stephens, who averaged 15.3 points and 6.3 rebounds a game last winter. “We came together and what happened last year we don’t want that to happen again. We know we have the talent here to compete within the league. It comes with that focus and mindset that we are a good basketball team and the better team we are as individuals, the better we can do on the court. Even though we do have a lot of young guys, we’re all really talented and we all bring something to the table and I think that’s going to help us in the end.” P r i nce ton h e ad coach Mitch Henderson is relying on Stephens and fellow senior star Devin Cannady

(16.7 points, 5.4 rebounds) to set a winning tone this winter. “It wasn’t a great year for the program and we had to correct a lot of things with the group coming back, and it starts with the leadership returning,” said Henderson, whose team tips off its 2018-19 campaign by hosting DeSales University on November 9. “Between the two of them, they’ve played in a lot of basketball games. We’re going to lean heavily on both of them, their leadership, their example, and so I’d say there are a lot of fresh faces, but when the rubber hits the road, it’s these two. They have to help us and continue to invest in their young teammates, and help us grow.” Henderson is looking for his team to show marked growth at the defensive end of the court. “The first (change) is you have to defend; if you’re going to be really good in this league or anywhere in the country, you have to play a hard-nosed defense,” said Henderson. “We can score. We lost some really heartbreaking games, but when you look at the games towards the end and even the overtime

games where we struggled, I think it’s our defense. We graduated a terrific player in Amir [Bell] defensively, but between these two guys we have the ability to be a very tough-nosed defensive team. I think that’s where you have to hang your hat on in this league.” Cannady, for his part, is helping his teammates buy into the defensive emphasis. “You just focus on it in practice,” said Cannady, who is on track to break the program record for threepointers as he has 218, 63 behind the 281 posted by Brian Earl ’99. “It’s been one of our key points in the spring, before the freshmen came in, and even now going over our principles and small details and then constantly pounding the hammer on the nail and taking care of that during practice. Then when we compete, if someone doesn’t do one of our rules or principles, really grabbing them and telling them, ‘This is how we do things.’ It’s one thing we’re trying to help the freshmen out with, both Myles and I. It’s something we take pride in.” The Tigers boast a promising freshmen class with the addition of Jaelin Llewellyn, Drew Friberg, Colby Kyle, M a x J o h n s, a n d E t h a n Wright. “We’ve relied heavily in the last few weeks on Jaelin getting us started in things,” said Henderson. “Drew is another guy that makes a lot of shots. I love the freshman class. Colby is coming back from an injury. Max and Ethan are all going to help us. Jaelin is very advanced for a freshman. He has an understanding of space in a college basketball game, and he’s so fast, he’s able to get himself into little spaces just by changing the position of the defense. And he doesn’t play like a freshman. You’ll see him out there quite a bit.” Henderson is hoping to get a lot of help from his corps of sophomores - Sebastian Much (7.1 points, 2.7 rebounds), Jerome Desrosiers (6.2 points, 2.7 rebounds), Ryan Schwieger (2.8 points, 1.7 rebounds), and Elijah Barnes (1.8 points, 2.0 rebounds in nine games). “We just need to see carry-over from the experience they got a year ago to what they’re doing now,” said Henderson. “Sometimes when you’re a freshman, the expectations aren’t always there. It’s sort of nice to be a freshman and be a recipient of

a lot of things. Now there’s an expectation and we have to trust that you’re going to be there for us every single day.” Juniors Will Gladson (3.6 points, 1.3 rebounds in 15 games) and Richmond Aririguzoh (2.7 points, 1.7 rebounds) figure to be there in the paint for Princeton. “We missed Will quite a bit last year; he did not get an opportunity to play significant minutes in practice,” said Henderson. “He barely played during the season so he’ll be a help, as will Richmond. Those guys are juniors and are acting like it and walking around like they know what they’re doing a little bit more, which is good. At the end, I think rebounding is about having the tenacity to go up there and get it in college, grab rebounds with two hands and have the discipline to box your guy out.”

The Tigers have the versatility to mix things up offensively depending on the situation. “We have three different ways to play, and one of those ways is going to be pushing the ball up the court,” maintained Henderson. “That takes advantage of some of the strengths that the group has. I like the idea of Devin being down the court and us looking for him, I like Myles being up the court. I like the ball in Jaelin’s hands, Devin’s hands, Jose Morales’ hands as they come up the court too. I think we’re going to be very difficult to guard. We have a lot of different ways to score, a lot of different people that can do things and have lots of different strengths.” While it is too early to know how strong Princeton is going to be this winter,

Henderson likes the vibe around his squad. “They like each other; it’s a fun group to be around,” said Henderson. “I’ve told them this too. We’ve had teams that they’ve played on that have a lot of veterans, but what stands out is they’re fun to coach. I don’t know how many wins we’re going to get, but I think it’s going to be a fun season.” —Bill Alden You can now purchase a copy of

In mid-October, Brooke Smukler was diagnosed with mononucleosis and feared that she might be sidelined for the rest of her senior season on the Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team. At the time, doctors advised Smukler that she was likely to be out for around four weeks. But get ting cleared after two weeks, Smukler got a chance to return to action for the postseason. “I wasn’t expecting to come back, so being back was really exciting for me,” said Smukler. “I just worked hard to get back to where I was before.” Last Wednesday, star forward Smukler produced a very exciting end to her career, scouring two goals to help top-seeded PDS defeat second-seeded Montclair Kimberly Academy 4-2 in the state Prep B championship game. Smukler’s first tally came with 39 seconds left in the first half and gave PDS a 2-0 lead at the break. “Jules [Romano] had the ball; she made a really good look and I came running down,” said Smukler. “She split it right through to me on the side and I slid it in the left corner. That was a really nice pass on her part.” The Panthers broke open the contest early in the second half with Smukler crashing the net for her second goal with 36:23 left in regulation and Ariana Jones scoring 13 minutes later as

PDS built a 4-0 cushion and weathered a late surge by MKA to win its fifth straight Prep B crown and end the fall with a 14-4-1 record. In reflecting on her second tally, Smukler credited Jones with making a brilliant feed to set her up for the point blank shot. “We work on that a lot in practice; crosses and balls in the air,” said Smukler. “That was definitely a result of just working on that and getting it in the goal any way we can. It doesn’t have to be pretty.” Achieving the goal of an outright title and a fifth Prep B crown was a sweet result for Smukler and her teammates. “It feels good, I know we all wanted it a lot today,” said Smukler. PDS head coach Pat Trombetta felt great seeing his players come through. “You are winning as cochamps and you’re standing here and you don’t know how to react,” said Trombetta. “But today, we can celebrate. It is a great feeling and I am really proud of the girls.” Trombetta liked the way PDS reacted when MKA cut the lead to 4-2 with 17:46 remaining in regulation. “When I saw the two goals on the board, I thought it was enough to get the job done,” said Trombetta. “They started throwing numbers forward and we took the foot off the gas a little bit. We just had to get composed again and

use time management from there on.” Senior stars Smukler and defender Kelsey Lane displayed composure, leading the way in their finale. “With Brooke coming off of mono, we didn’t know if she had enough energy today to play,” said Trombetta, whose senior group also includes midfielder Charlotte Meyercord. “This was really her first game back after being out for a few weeks, and what a way to go out in style. Kelsey played a hell of a season in the back as our center back. I am really happy for the seniors; they earned a championship all four years they have been with the program.” In Trombetta’s view, the fifth straight Prep B crown is a testament to the skill and tenacity of his players over the years. “It means a lot,” said Trombetta, who also guided the Panthers to the Mercer County Tournament title in 2013. “I have been blessed to have the talented players that believe in our system and come here to play and play hard.” Smukler, for her par t, feels blessed to go out in style. “All of us went out on a strong note” said Smukler. “Today is a result of all of us playing for each other. Everyone wanted this for the three seniors and all of us just wanted it for each other. It was a team effort and we really played with our hearts today.” —Bill Alden

Midfielder Romano Provided Early Spark As PDS Girls’ Soccer Took Prep B Final Goals have been hard to come by when the Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team battled Montclair Kimberley Academy in the last three state Prep B finals. In 2015, the two rivals played to a 0-0 tie through regulation before Hannah Bunce blasted in a goal to give PDS a 1-0 overtime victory. A year later, the teams played to a 0-0 tie in game shortened due to thunderstorms rolling through the Princeton area in the second half of the contest. Last fall, the title contest ended in a scoreless stalemate through regulation and two overtimes. When first-seeded PDS hosted second-seeded Cougars in the fourth act of their championship drama in the state Prep B title game last Wednesday, Panther sophomore midfielder Jules Romano flipped the script. Some 25 minutes into the contest, Romano blasted a volley that struck off the crossbar and went behind the MKA goalie. “I hit it, knowing it was close to going in,” recalled Romano of her strike. “I didn’t know if it went in when it hit the bar. All of my teammates said it went in

and then I saw the ref signal and we scored.” In the waning moments of the first half, Romano slotted a ball through to senior Brooke Smukler, who buried it in the back of the net to give PDS a 2-0 advantage. “I saw her making a run and she called for it and there was a good seam and I played it,” said Romano. “She took a great touch inside and finished it.” PDS head coach Pat Trombetta was not surprised that Romano proved to be a catalyst as the Panthers went on to a 4-2 win and their fifth straight Prep B crown. “Jules is fantastic; she is one of our most improved players from last season,” said Trombetta, whose team ended the fall with a 14-4-1 record. “She has been stepping up in the middle of the field and controls things for us in terms of possession. Her shot hit off the cross bar and bounced down. I am glad the assistant referee was there and had good vision on that goal. That is big, to get the first one on the board in a game like this. She had a nice through ball there to Brooke to set up the next goal.” In Romano’s view, it was

nice for PDS to have the title to itself. “It was rough getting co-champs last year so it is good to finally win it for the school; not having to take a picture with the other team and having it for ourselves,” said Romano. R o m a n o c r e d i te d t h e team’s seniors, Kelsey Lane, Charlotte Meyercord and Smukler, with having a good influence on the younger players. “Their leadership is amazing; Kelsey has been dominant in the back,” said Romano. “She controls everything; she helps me in the midfield get up. Brooke is just a powerhouse up front, she goes through brick walls. The last senior, Charlotte, is like the team mom. She is so nice.” With a solid core of returners, Romano believes that PDS can remain a powerhouse. “We can definitely keep this going,” asserted Romano. “We have really good young talent and from the leadership of the seniors this year, they set us up for success for the rest of the years.” —Bill Alden

With Senior Star Pinheiro Setting the Pace, PHS Boys’ Cross Country 2nd at Sectional A soggy course and howling winds greeted runners as they competed last Saturday in the Central Jersey Group 4 cross country sectional at Thompson Park in Jamesburg. Proving that he is a tough mudder, Princeton High senior star Acasio Pinheiro flew over the 5,000-meter course in 16:07.4 to place first individually, five seconds ahead of runner-up Nick Lundberg of Freehold Township. Pinheiro’s heroics helped PHS finish second in the te a m s t a n d i n g s b e h i n d champion WW/P-South and advance to the state Group 4 meet this Saturday at Holmdel Park.

“Acasio made some smart decisions,” said PHS head coach Jim Smirk, noting that Pinheiro didn’t run in the county meet on October 26 due to injury. “He stayed in the competitive contact throughout the race and timed his attack late effectively and used his strength to his benefit and come out with the win.” Smirk credited Pinheiro with rising to the occasion in producing his winning effort. “We always knew that Acasio had that kind of potential; he is an incredibly talented athlete,” said Smirk. “For him, the challenge has always been bringing himself to that moment and

letting himself be successful by not doing too much. It just taking that deep breath and picking his spots; when he does that he is pretty hard to beat.” Another PHS senior, Tucker Zullo, was up to the challenge at the sectional meet, placing sixth in 16:36.1. “Tucker has really proven at this point that he is not someone else on our team, he has proven week in, week out that he is really core to our success,” said Smirk. “He had a good solid day; what showed in those conditions is how strong Tucker is.” The Little Tigers also got a strong effort from senior Jackson McCarthy, who took 12th with a time of 16:58.4. “Jackson ran with minimal mistakes, and that is what we asked him to do,”said Smirk.

“We knew he was going to be in a position to solidify that three spot.” Junior Tyler Fu worked hard to get himself in a good position, placing 30th in 17:23. “Tyler was in a situation early in the race where it went out pretty quick; it would have been easy for him to panic. Instead he just stuck to his race plan and made the race when it counted,” said Smirk. “He picked up spots left and right; that is a tough thing to do when you are running as a four man, you can get dumped out the back.” The fifth finisher for PHS, sophomore Jacob Bornstein, worked his way through the pack to take 56th in 17:55. “On a slow course it is so easy for a younger runner

to get eaten up by that, and not have enough gas in the tank to finish well, but he picked up four spots in the last mile,” said Smirk. “He ran a really good race and sealed the back door for us.” The PHS girls’ team didn’t hit the gas at the right time, taking seventh in the team standings in a meet won by South Brunswick with senior Siena Moran leading the way, finishing 12th individually in 20:02.3. “We didn’t really get out of the gate well; we ran tough in the late stages of the race,” said Smirk in assessing the performance of his girls’ squad. “We did some things right, it just wasn’t a sustained effort across the race.” Smirk praised Moran with sacrificing for the team. “Siena could have been more con s e r v at ive, but t h e re would have been no chance

for our tram to get ahead,” said Smirk. “I am proud of her for taking the risk. I am looking forward to her to gearing up for Nike Cross Nationals and getting ready for that.” In the meantime the PHS boys’ squad will be gearing up for another battle with South at the Group meet. “South has an incredibly veteran squad, very deep and Adhwin (Sridhar) had a great day for them,” said Smirk. “If that is setting the front edge, we are going to have to respond to that. If we do that, it puts us in a good position. Our four and five are going to have to battle to be in the correct spot at the break at groups, but that is true every time. We have the talent to do that and we have been training hard to do that. We will see what we can do.” —Bill Alden

Lauren Rougas and her fellow defenders on the Princeton High girls’ soccer team knew they faced a challenge when they played at highpowered Hunterdon Central in the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional quarterfinals last Friday. “Our defensive game plan was to just play as a unit and pass the ball around and keep possession on the offense,” said Rougas.”We wanted to keep our defensive stance and play as hard as we could.” The eighth-seeded Little Tigers were under the gun in the first half, battling to hold the fort as top-seeded Hunterdon Central generated a slew of shots and took a 2-0 lead into intermission. “They did have a lot of shots but I think we were very consistent in the first half,” said Rougas. “We never gave up.” The Little Tigers got worn down by the Red Devils in the second half, losing 4-0 to end the fall with a 9-7-2 record. “We didn’t have a lot of subs going in for us, but we played around that as best we could,” said Rougas. “I think it helps us for next year to just know what we have to work on.” Ending the year by advancing to the quarterfinals of the Mercer County Tournament as well as the state sectional was a confidence builder for PHS. “Towards the end of the season we started playing more as a unit instead of for individuals,” said Rougas of PHS, which edged Lawrence in the first round of the MNCT a week after losing 3-0 to the Cardinals in a regular season contest.“Beating Lawrence in counties was awesome.” Rougas shouldered responsibility for getting the Little Tigers on the same page. “I learned what the players need; I progressed throughout the season as a leader,” said Rougas. PHS head coach Val Rodriguez credited Rougas with becoming a force along the back line for PHS this fall. “Lauren is a tremendous player; we moved her to the center mid at one point today and just like that they put two more in,” said Rodriguez.“That just shows how much of an impact she has back there. She is a really good leader and has a presence on the field. She is physical and has a great air game. She motivates the team really, really well; she is just a smart player.” Rodriguez was pleased with her team’s effort in defeat against Hunterdon Central. “They are a talented team that we just went up against, they have a lot of speed on their team,” said Rodriguez. “We ran a 4-5-1 formation, which we have been doing recently, because it allows us to defend well but get numbers into the attack when possible. It was just a matter of go in and try to win 50/50s and be physical. We played the whole 80 minutes hard; it is a lot to ask of a team in a game like that and really bring for 80 minutes when they are scoring four goals against you. I think we gave it what we had. We can’t leave here disappointed in ourselves.” Junior goalie Caroline Ealy gave her all against the Red Devils, making 14 saves in defeat, including several point blank stops.

“I thought Caroline had her best game of the year,” asserted Rodriguez. “She had really big saves and communicated well. She came off of her line well today.” Rodriguez likes the way her team played well down the stretch of the season as it won three of its last five games. “We came out in the counties with a really solid game against Lawrence and then the game against Allentown was just fun,” said Rodriguez, referring to 1-0 overtime loss in the quarters to the topseeded Redbirds. “We played them of 97 and half minutes to a shutout and that lifted us. That made us believe in ourselves and understanding that we can play and we can compete with some of the best teams around here.” The squad’s group of seniors, led by Shannon Romaine, Camille Franklin, and Kathryn DeMilt, helped PHS remain competitive to the end. “Shannon is our center mid; she is a great leader and

gives a 100 percent effort all of the time,” said Rodriguez, whose senior class also included Julia Thomson and Hannah Colaizzo, “The girls play for her because she does motivate them in that sense. Camille is a forward for us and is a hustle player. She is quick and makes things happen. Kat has been a good stopper for us the whole season. She is the kid we go to in a mark up situation.” In the view of Rodriguez, the team has very good prospects going forward. “We are young, we are coming back with 15 of our 20 players,” said Rodriguez. “We have got a really great foundation moving into next year. We had a lot of hope for this year and I think we grew and started to tap into the potential.” Rougas, for her part, believes that PHS can grow into something special. “We need to just work on a little possession and connecting passes,” said Rougas. “Our heart is there. If we just keep on working for next year, I think we are going to be an amazing team.” —Bill Alden

PHS Girls’ Volleyball Falls in State Opener, But Senior Star Drobnjak Enjoys the Ride After the Princeton High girls’ volleyball team dropped the first set of its Group 4 state tournament opening round match against visiting Cherokee, Natalia Drobnjak knew the season was on the line. “In the second set we just tried to come out with a bit more fire, energy, and a sense of urgency,” said senior libero Drobnjak The 16th-seeded Little Tigers fought hard but came up short, falling 2-0 (25-17, 2516) to 17th-seeded Cherokee to end the fall with a 20-6 record. While Drobnjak was disappointed with the outcome, she was proud of how the program remained competitive in the wake of its 31-2 season last fall. “I know a lot of people were worried that we would drop off the cliff completely this year,” said Drobnjak. “We lost a lot of great players, but everyone worked so hard in the offseason and came into preseason with so much fire and motivation. It really showed with how well we played again.” Drobnjak enjoyed mo tivating her teammates in her role as co-captain along with classmate Viva Bell. “It has been wonderful, I could not have asked for a better group,” said Drobnjak. Seeing the group raise its skill level collectively has been heartening for Drobnjak. “The proudest thing for me is just coming in and seeing the level of play and the difference from my freshman year to now,” said Drobnjak.“Ever yone now is playing in the offseason throughout the year. We all play club volleyball for the most part.” PHS head coach Patty Manhart acknowledged that her squad didn’t play its best in the loss to the Chiefs. “Maybe there was a little bit of nerves; there were juniors here who were playing their first state game,” said Manhart. “That can happen where you just don’t play like yourselves.” Manhart was hoping that her players would get past the nerves in the second set.

“It was just play better in the second set, but technically I didn’t think there was anything to change. It was not something being picked on by the other team,” said Manhart. “It was just improve on our side and stop making unforced errors. I would have liked to see a little better from them.” In assessing the season, Manhart acknowledged that she was hoping for a better run in the state tournament. “The highlight was at least keeping things going by winning our league playoff,” said Manhart, whose team defeated Northern Burlington 2-1 in the final round of the BCSL (Burlington County Scholastic League) tournament. “This was the first year where it was a step back from our performance in states. We were knocked out the first round two years and knocked in the third round last year and now we are knocked out in the first round. That is a bit of a disappointment.” The contribution of the team’s seniors helped keep things going in the right

direction for PHS. “They were here for a tough year so they are really invested in the program,” said Manhart, whose group of seniors included Olivia Corrodi and Cami Strauss in addition to Bell and Drobnjak. “All the girls have been playing since their freshman year and have taken a big role on the team. We have had lot of heart and a lot of leadership from them.” With such juniors as Gillian Hauschild, Kim Cheng, Gwen Matsukawa, Cosette Hansen, and Emily Dobler coming back, Manhart is confident that the Little Tigers can do big things next fall. “What hurts us today in hav ing new people who haven’t played states is going help us next year when we have everyone coming back and only one or two spots to fill,” said Manhart. Drobnjak, for her part, has relished her four years with the program. “It is just the sense of community; my best friends have come from this team,” said Drobnjak. “It is truly such a loving group and I could not asked to be part of a better group.” —Bill Alden

Senior Standout Henderson Enjoys Fitting Finale, As Hun Football Tops Mercersburg, Earns MAPL Title Josh Henderson’s final appearance for the Hun School football team proved to be a fitting culmination to his stellar career. Wit h Hu n host ing t he Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) last Sunday to end the 2018 campaign, senior running back and co-captain Henderson scored two touchdowns to help the Raiders roll to a 48-20 triumph as they improved to 8-1 and cliched the outright Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) title in the process. “It is a special day for all of us seniors and the newcomers,” said the 6’0, 205-pound Henderson, reflecting on the finale. “We had a good season this year. We set out with a goal and we did accomplished that

goal of a championship.” After scoring t wo first quarter touchdowns as Hun jumped out to an early 27-0 lead, Henderson got to bask in the glow of the win, playing sparingly after that. “We had a good first half,” said Henderson. “We came out and ran the ball well and got the young guys a chance to get in and play a little bit.” Henderson and the Raiders had the chance to clinch the outright MAPL title in the wake of a come-from-behind 21-16 win at fellow frontrunner Peddie on October 27. “It was such a great game; it was a fairy tale ending,” said Henderson, who had been stymied in the 2017 meeting between the rivals which saw Peddie prevail 61-7, snap-

ping Hun’s 29-game winning streak. “They had been on our minds since the very beginning of the season.” Ending his Hun career with outright crown is something that will be on Henderson’s mind for a while. “It is a great feeling to get another MAPL championship and to get it on my senior year to go out on top,” said Henderson, who has committed to attend the University of North Carolina and play for its football program. Hun head coach Todd Smith was thrilled to see his senior group go out on top. “I am so proud of them, a lot of them are kids that came in around the same time I did, so we have been together,” said Smith, whose other senior standouts included Jackson Barletta, Malcolm Brunson, Gavin Casey, Blake Hansen, Caedan Wallace, Dylan Deveney, and Brendan Ekwughalo in addition to Henderson. “It has been a real great experience.” It has been a special experience for Smith to coach Henderson. “Josh has done a great job and there is no doubt that he is going to be a great player at the next level,” said Smith. “We are happy to help him take that next step.” Smith was very happy to see his team stand alone atop the MAPL. “It is our fourth outright championship in five years; that is the goal we have here at

the Hun School, to win the MAPL so mission accomplished,” said Smith whose team shared the MAPL title last fall Edging Peddie a week earlier was the key step in accomplishing the title mission. “That was a testament to our kids not giving up,” said Smith. “We were down early. We had to battle through

some adversity from a lot of different levels but all in all it was great.” While Hun is losing some key players to graduation, Smith believes the program can keep playing at a high level. “We lose a lot of great kids and we bring back a lot of great kids,” said Smith. “It is on us, as coaches,

to develop the kids that we have to make sure that they are ready.” Henderson, for his part, has developed a deep affection for the Hun program in his time at the school. “I w i l l re m e mb e r t h e friendships that turn into family,” said Henderson. “This will be special forever.” —Bill Alden

Obituaries

Burnett Henry Sams, III Burnett Henry Sams, III, 87, went peacefully to be with our Lord on May 25, 2018. Born in Seattle, Washington in 1931, he received his BS in Physics from the University of Washington (1951), and his M.S. (1953) and Ph.D. (1958) in Mathematics at the University of Illinois. There he married Dorothy in 1956. His professional career began as an instructor at Dartmouth College and a computer researcher at MIT in Boston, and continued to include manager of data systems research and ACSI-MATIC program at the Space Laboratory of RCA in NJ, professor of engineering and computer science at Stevens Institute of Technolog y, Program Management of FCC Licensing and Regulations at the Pentagon, and many years in management of integrated systems at NBC television studios, both in Rockefeller Center and Burbank. He

was a pioneer in computer systems related to broadcasting, satellites, high definition television, and spectrum utilization. Among his work, he developed systems using fiber optic networks, microprocessors, and internet protocols, to control multiple remote analog and digital servers to simplify a TV director’s job in composing and combining recorded and live action material. He enjoyed being present at many national conventions and at Olympic games to oversee smooth broadcasts. He was the first employee at NBC Studios to utilize a desk top personal computer. Among his awards was the David Sarnoff Achievement Award of Science. In his free time he enjoyed time spent with his family sailing, camping, traveling, and square dancing, as well as hobbies of amateur radio, international chess games, gardening, and marathon running. He will be remembered not only for his technical brilliance, dry sense of humor, and his peaceful and patient demeanor, but most importantly for his faithfulness to our Lord Jesus and his desire to give other people the opportunity to hear the Bible taught and respond in faith to Jesus Christ. As a young scientist he himself wrestled with being able to accept the Bible’s inerrancy and God’s gift of forgiveness through Jesus, but soon thereafter, committed his life to follow Jesus and lived out his faith in various ways. Over his 55 years residing in Princeton, he served Nassau Presbyterian, Kingston Presbyterian, and Princeton Alliance churches in various capacities. He co-founded

the Living Word nonprofit organization, under which he co-founded the Lamplighter Christian Bookstore, providing Christian books to the university community prior to internet retail. He also served the Princeton community through Big Brothers, Family Service Agency, the United Way, Princeton Community Action Council, and the Gideons. He and Dotty opened their home to foster children and many international students. In his later years he served on the Christian Union Princeton Community Advisory Board, whose mission is to advance the Gospel of Christ on the 8 Ivy-League campuses, and he created endowed scholarships for seminary students at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Burnet t was the great grandson of a Baptist circuit riding preacher in NC who co-founded the Mars Hill College.

Community Thanksgiving Service At PU Chapel

Dr. Francis C. Oglesby Henry Edward Nyce Henry Edward Nyce, 86, of Skillman died on Saturday, November 3, 2018, just three weeks after the passing of his wife, Marjorie K. Nyce. Born in Sellersville, PA, he resided most of his life in West Windsor and Princeton before moving to Skillman five years ago. Ed was a member of Stone Hill Church, Princeton and very involved in the Stonebridge at Montgomery community. Son of the late Lloyd and Madeline ( Luehrs ) Nyce, he is survived by daughters Deborah Flanagan, Karen Bruno, Brenda Nyce-Taylor and a son, Thomas Nyce, 10 grandchildren, and one greatgranddaughter. Friends may call on Saturday, November 10, 2018 from 10 until 10:45 a.m at Stone Hill Church, 1025 Bunn Drive, Princeton, to be followed by a Memorial Service at 11 a.m. Arrangements are under the direction of The MatherHodge Funeral Home, Princeton, matherhodge.com.

Dr. Francis C. Oglesby, 86, passed away on Saturday, November 3, 2018, in Springfield, VA. Frank was born in New York City, NY and raised in Bloomfield, NJ. He was the youngest of four brothers. He graduated from Dickinson College and received a Masters and Ph.D. in Mathematics from Lehigh University. In 1961, he moved his family to Princeton, NJ, where he resided for 57 years. Frank was an associate professor of mathematics at Princeton University for six years. He then served as a chief officer at Applied Logic, working on artificial intelligence before returning to teaching at Rider University. Frank loved music, to read, play tennis, and interact with people. He was an active member of the Barbershop Harmony Society, where he sang tenor. He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Victoria; daughter, Elizabeth Scanlon (Brian); grandchildren Michael and Deirdre Scanlon; and niece and nephews, Karen and Zachary Eisenhart and Patrick Heller.

The Princeton Clergy Association has once again organized a Com mu nit y Thanksgiving Day Service for 11 a.m. at the Princeton University Chapel, hosted by the Princeton University Office of Religious Life and open to all members of the wider community.

“Heimat. The word means home in German, the place where one was born. But the term also conveys a subtler nuance, a certain tenderness. One’s Heimat is not merely a matter of geography; it is where one’s heart lies." —Jenna Blum

TITLE TITLE

As winter approaches, homeowners and property managers are advised that tree failure is a major cause of property damage. An ice storm or high wind can cause a cracked tree to fail under its own weight. Homeowners worried about trees falling and damaging property should call a professional arborist in for an inspection, advises deTuro. He notes that trees are designed to withstand storms, but all trees can fail – and defective trees fail sooner than healthy trees “To a professional arborist, defects are detectable signs that a tree has an increased potential to fail”, says deTuro. One of the major warning signs of tree failure is a visible crack. Cracks form when the load exceeds the capacity of the stem to withstand the load. Cracks can occur in branches, trunks, or roots. The wood behind the crack may be sound, decayed, or missing (cavity). Several types of cracks run with the wood grain along the length of the tree and may appear as shear cracks, in-rolled cracks, or ribbed cracks. Shear cracks, a type of vertical crack, become hazardous when they go completely through the stem and separate the stem into two halves. Horizontal cracks run across the grain of the wood and are formed when loading in the tree’s crown pulls wood fibers apart. They are rarely found because they develop just before the trees fail. Horizontal cracks are a sign of imminent failure in leaning trees. What can you do? Cracks are hazardous when they compromise the structure of the tree by splitting the stem in two or when another defect, such as internal decay and a crack, do not provide enough sound wood in the outer shell to support the tree. A professional arborist can assess your landscape and work with you to determine the safest course of action.

SELLING YOUR HOME...STEP BY STEP There are many things that must be taken into consideration when you decide to sell your home. From our initial consultation to settlement and everything in between it is imperative that you have a trusted advisor and knows the market inside and out. At our first visit, I will come to you home with information about my Team, The Weichert Way, a pricing strategy, market comps and next steps. Customized pricing and marketing strategies are two of the most important steps to getting your home sold. Analyzing the specific comparables as well as general market absorption rates will give a good indication as to how much your home will sell for. Marketing your home online is critical in getting the word out about your property. Professional staging and photography are two tools that I find critical in getting your home looking the best for that critical first impression of buyers.
