Medical Experts Urge Those Not Immunized To Get Flu Shots

A century ago, a flu pandemic took the lives of an estimated 50 to 100 million people around the world, making it one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history. While the current flu epidemic is not as dangerous, it is serious and considered one of the worst on record. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that more than 50 children have died of the flu this season. The virus has sent scores of otherwise healthy individuals to the hospital. At Princeton Medical Center, 412 patients have tested positive for influenza this season, compared to nearly half that a year ago. That includes outpatients, emergency department visits, and in-patients at the hospital. “Part of the problem is that there are a lot of other upper respiratory illnesses going on at the same time,” said Jeffrey Grosser, Princeton’s municipal health officer. “What we’re really concerned with is that people stay home from work or school if they are sick. Especially with children and the elderly, this is a big issue.” Experts stress that it is not too late to get a flu shot. While the strain of flu known as H3N2 is affecting many people who have been vaccinated, they are suffering less and for a shorter amount of time than those who have not had the shot. “The flu this year is a lot more intense and a lot more widespread than we thought it would be,” said Dr. Seth Rosenbaum, chief medical officer, senior vice president, and an infectious disease expert at RWJ University Hospital Hamilton. “This strain is not covered as well as it should be in the vaccine that we have, and that’s the predominant strain seen now. The best way to still prevent it is the vaccination. The recommendation is if you have not gotten it yet, it’s not too late.” Princeton University has seen only a slight increase in the number of flu and flu-like diagnoses so far this season. But University Health Services is bracing for an uptick. “We do not think we have seen the worst yet,” said Dr. Jonathan Pletcher, director of medical services. “The next two to three weeks are expected to be the peak of local activity.” The school is continuing to promote and provide flu shots. “It’s possible that high immunization rates could mitigate Continued on Page 8

Three More Candidates Enter Race For Council Michelle Lambros, Adam Bierman, and Myrtha Jasmin have joined the field for the Democratic nomination for Princeton Council, along with Eve Niedergang and Dwaine Williamson as announced in last week’s Town Topics. They are vying for seats currently held by Heather Howard and Lance Liverman, who will be stepping down when their current terms end at the end of December. Additional candidates may emerge in the next two months before the April 2 deadline for submitting nominating petitions to the Princeton Municipal Clerk. The Democratic candidates will have an opportunity to deliver a short statement and answer questions from the audience at a March 18 Princeton Community Democratic Organization (PCDO) meeting, which will culminate in a vote for endorsement of candidates. The primary elections will take place on June 5, with two nominees chosen to run in the November 6 general election. Michelle Lambros

Lambros, a businesswoman and Princeton native who recently moved back to town from Kuwait, has lived and traveled in the Middle East, Europe, and Latin America. Declaring Princeton “one of the best places in the world to live,”

Lambros stated, “I look forward to the opportunity to serve the town and delve into the detailed, important decisions that our Council makes to assure our town continues to be a safe, beautiful, and worldclass community.” Emphasizing the value of her business experience, Lambros noted, “having been a small business owner for many years, I understand the challenges small businesses are facing from online sales and big box stores. I want to support shop-

ping locally. I want to support the vibrant restaurants and retail establishments we have here. It’s important that town Council support those businesses, whether it’s through parking or infrastructure or other means.” With an undergraduate degree in political science from Seton Hill University in Greensburg, Pa., and a master’s degree in international affairs from George Washington University, Lambros, who Continued on Page 8

Candlelight Vigil to Support Olympic Truce Will Take Place Friday in Palmer Square As the Winter Olympics open in South Korea, an Olympic Truce vigil, sponsored by the Coalition for Peace Action (CFPA), will take place on Friday in Palmer Square from 5-6 p.m. “This vigil is building on a long history of Olympic Truces and peacemaking, a tradition of worldwide truce at the time of the Olympics,” said CFPA executive director the Rev. Bob Moore. Moore described “belligerent rhetoric” between North Korea and the United States “getting worse and worse.” He added, “Many were worried about esca-

lation and increasing risks of miscalculation. Then on January 1 the North Korean leader held out an olive branch. South Korea agreed. ‘Let’s start talking. Let’s get to the Olympics.’ That cooperation has de-escalated the rhetoric.” North Korea will send athletes, an orchestra, cheerleaders, and a high-level delegation to the Olympics, and the two Koreas have agreed to march together in the opening ceremony and create a joint team for women’s ice hockey. Earlier this year a communications hotline between Continued on Page 9

mental in creating and facilitating Continuing Conversations on Race and White Privilege programs on first Mondays at Princeton Public Library, and she established NIOT’s partnership with McCarter Theatre. She co-chaired the Campaign to End the New Jim CrowTrenton, served on the NJ Child Protection Board, and volunteered with the League of Women Voters Lawrenceville. After a 24-year career in management with the U. S. Postal Service, she was an operations strategic specialist at a Fortune 500 company. With bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Phoenix, she is pursuing a doctoral degree in organizational operations. Hoagland focuses on social, political, and racial

justice, as well as cultural and historic inclusion for the under-served population. She is also vice president of the Urban Mental Health Alliance and active in, among others, the Trent House Association, the Campaign to End the New Jim Crow-Greater Trenton, and the Trenton Civic Trust. With BS and MBA degrees from Rider University, Hoagland has more than 20 years of corporate management experience in the financial, legal and manufacturing sectors. A life-long resident of Trenton, she is married and has five children and eight grandchildren. After a career at Princeton University Library, Oppenheim devoted her time to co-chairing NIOT Princeton. During her tenure, NIOT saw significant growth

in attendance at its monthly programs at Princeton Public Library and at special programs such as a six-part Racial Literacy series. For NIOT’s participation in the YWCA’s Stand Against Racism in 2015, she led a campaign to blanket shops with Stand Against Racism posters and publish participating merchants’ photos in ads in Town Topics. She is active on the Social Action Committee of The Jewish Center of Princeton. With a degree in fashion illustration from the New York Phoenix School of Design (now Pratt Institute), Peck worked many years in the graphic arts field, including at Princeton University Press. A well-known watercolorist, she contributes her design talents to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Princeton as well as to NIOT Princeton. Also on the board are Adele Batchelder, Caroline Clarke, Ted Fetter, Barbara Fox, Shelley Krause, Miki Mendelsohn, Hamza Nishtar, Shirley Satterfield, Roberto Schiraldi, Wilma Solomon, Fern Spruill, Don Stryker, Valeria Torres-Olivares, Joyce Trotman-Jordan, and Joyce Turner. Not In Our Town Princeton’s new mission statement describes “a multi-racial, multi-faith group of individuals who stand together for racial justice and inclusive communities. Our focus is to promote the equitable treatment of all, and to uncover and confront white supremacy — a system which manipulates and pits all races and ethnicities against each other.”

list last November, Cura and her staff have been busier than ever creating bears, quilts, tote bags, duffel bags, and wedding keepsakes out of old clothes that have sentimental value, but might otherwise be stuffed into a box in the attic. So a vintage T-shirt collection could have a second life as a quilt. Baby clothes a parent can’t bear to part with could be crafted into a cuddly bear.

TOPICS Of the Town “It’s upcycling,” said Cura, who has been in Princeton since moving the business out of her Hopewell basement in 2015. “Everybody has old clothes they don’t know what to do with, and we turn them into keepsakes. People seem to love the idea, and it has really taken off since we were on the list in Oprah Magazine. It’s been crazy since then, but good crazy.” Originally an architect, Cura was living in California with her husband and small children when, on maternity leave in 2004, she began making quilts as gifts for friends. Teddy bears made from fabric came next. Friends told friends, and Cura was busy. The family moved east a few years later, which is when a Hollywood stylist happened to see a picture of the bears and tracked Cura down. The handmade bears ended up in the gifting suite of the Golden Globe Awards, giving the fledgling business an unexpected boost. “I developed a little celebrity following,” Cura said, mentioning Matthew McConaughey, Nicole Kidman, Angela Jolie, Brad Pitt, Chad Lowe, and Jennifer Garner among her customers. As the bear business grew, Cura discovered a new twist. “A customer of mine asked if I could make something

out of their clothes. I did that, and it just clicked,” she said. “I was going back and forth between doing a line of bears out of fabric and this new idea, and I decided to go in this direction. Since then, it has been mostly a clothing keepsake company.” Cura has five people on her staff, and others who do Continued on Next Page

contract sewing. Customers ordering a bear get a kit that comes with instructions on how to proceed. “You can either just send clothes to us, or you can design the bear and pin notes showing where you want everything,” she said. “It’s a process, and it’s highly personalized.” Quilts are done in the traditional manner, with oldfashioned batting under the top layer made of clothing and items supplied by customers. Cura recalls several fondly, including some made from uniforms of police and first responders, others from scouting badges. The company also makes quilts out of wedding dresses. “So instead of a cardboard tomb, the dress gets another life,” Cura said.

difference if we ask for an injunction, because the University doesn’t seem to be in a place to make a final sale yet. They say they’re doing a lot and working hard, but they don’t have all the terms down yet.” In a letter to the University community January 23, Rider President Gregor y Dell’Omo and Board Chairman Rober t S. Schimek said the school has been “in constant discussions with our partner and have been productive in our efforts to finalize a term sheet that will provide the opportunity for the long-term success of Westminster.” The letter further assures that “the Choir College is continuing with an incredibly active audition, performance, and class schedule for the spring semester. We look forward to sending off the class of ’18 in a few short months while preparing to welcome

Valentine’s Day at home! Vi

Last Friday, a federal judge declined a request by Rider University’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) to temporarily halt the sale of Westminster Choir College to an as-yet unnamed buyer from China. The injunction, if granted, would have prevented Rider’s administration from entering into any binding agreement over the sale of the music school, affiliated with Rider since 1992, until the resolution of arbitration over layoff notices that Rider issued in November to Westminster professors and librarians. The AAUP is undecided about whether to appeal the ruling. “We want to protect the faculty,” said Elizabeth Scheiber, Rider professor and president of the AAUP chapter. “We’ll see what our legal counsel says. We’re not really sure if it makes a

a new group of talented, creative individuals as the class of ’22 enters this coming fall.” Rider, which is in Lawrenceville, announced last year that it was selling the music school, which sits on a prime, 23-acre site in Princeton, to stem financial problems, many of which they attribute to Westminster. But citing audits, the union has countered that Rider’s financial situation is not as dire as stated, and that deficits are much smaller than the University projects for the near future. Rider announced in August that it had entered into negotiations with the buyer, which wants to keep the school in place and operate it as a nonprofit, maintaining current faculty and staff. “The union has some issues with this situation, because we don’t know who the buyer is,” said Scheiber. “We only know that it is a Chinese buyer that has run K-12 private schools in China. They haven’t operated in the United States, or as nonprofits. We’re just being told to trust the University, but they keep saying they can’t reveal the buyer.” The March 29 arbitration is the current focus of the AAUP chapter. “We’re worried that faculty that could be laid off won’t have any remedy if these promises turn out to be false,” Scheiber said. “We are going to arbitration because our contract specifies that layoffs can only occur in the case of financial exigencies. The University has to show they are in real financial straits.” —Anne Levin

the severity of illness for folks who have been immunized and still get the flu,” Pletcher said. “Influenza is a significant campus health risk that we take very seriously. Every year, we do a significant amount of planning, community education, promoting and lowering barriers to vaccination, and providing care related to the flu.” The town gets weekly updates from the New Jersey Department of Health to try and monitor the situation. “Right now, there is a high incidence of flu all around the state,” said Grosser. “It’s just bad everywhere in New Jersey.” The flu, in fact, is widespread all over the country.

And that is unusual. According to the CDC, the current flu season started in November, earlier than in previous years. It usually happens in different areas at different times, but activity is in every state this season. In addition to getting the flu shot, people are urged to wash their hands, and do it often. Parents are urged to take children to the doctor if they feel their breathing is not normal. “Don’t be afraid to ask. Don’t chalk it up to some respiratory illness. If they’re wheezing, if they have a hard time catching their breath or have raspy breathing at night, take them in,” Grosser said. “Don’t take any chances because this strain is really taking its toll on kids.” —Anne Levin

She graduated from Lawrence High School and went on to study hairstyling and makeup at the Gordon Phillips Beauty School in Lawrence.

North and South leaders was reactivated. “This is a promising opening that could de-escalate te n s i on s a n d j u m p s t a r t diplomatic negotiations,” Moore said. “T he CF PA joins peace-loving people the world over in strongly advocating diplomacy, not war with Korea.” He continued, ”We have to find a way to coexist. This is an opening. If we don’t find a way to peacefully resolve this conflict, the potential future is bleak.” He pointed out that experts estimate the danger of nuclear war is as high as 60 percent with the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists recently having moved its Doomsday Clock to two minutes to midnight, the

closest it’s been to nuclear war since 1953 at the height of the Cold War. Friday’s candlelight vigil is part of an internationallycoordinated effort with similar CFPA-sponsored events taking place simultaneously in Philadelphia, Langhorne, Allentown, and Aston, Pa. Moore urged the public “to attend any of these events in solidarity with the Olympic Truce as a way of urging sustained diplomacy to peacefully resolve the North Korea issue.” Moore, who will also be giving a talk, “Urgent: Diplomacy Not War with Korea!,” Saturday at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Camden at a Gathering for Peace and Justice, pointed out that diplomacy with North Korea has worked before. A 1994 agreement prevented

at least 100 North Korean nuclear weapons over the following eight years, and more recently diplomacy with Iran produced a peaceful resolution to the nuclear crisis there. “We urge all elected officials to demand that Donald Trump refrain from any further sabotage of diplomacy with childish insults and bellicose threats, which could lead to war, even nuclear war, with North Korea, and instead to engage in sustained multilateral diplomacy,” Moore wrote in a statement announcing the vigils. —Donald Gilpin

Town and University Seem Indifferent To the Harm Their Policies Are Inflicting

To the Editor: Our town’s leaders appear to have agreed with the University that growth is good. Both parties seem indifferent to the harm their policies are inflicting upon our town and our residents. No longer content with serving only our nation, the University proposes to expand its campus to encompass the land between Carnegie Lake and Route 1. Its leaders promote the plan as “sustainable” and offer as proof a contemplated pedestrian bridge over the lake. What they omit to say is that their expansion plans will make a distant memory of the walkable campus that, as recently as a few decades ago, made our University so distinctively intimate. Not insignificantly, their plan will also increase the stress on our town’s housing prices and limited infrastructure. Our Council, meanwhile, manages our town like a charity for non-residents and public sector employees. Unlike most charities, however, theirs is funded with compulsory levies on our residents. We have long paid the inflated salaries and pensions of our public sector employees. We will shortly be required to add the costs of a school expansion necessitated by our town’s “welcoming” policy. Adding to those costs are the increased taxes that result when land values are driven up by the apartment blocks our leaders approve as sources of low rent apartments. If present trends continue, we residents will soon be required to substitute a paid fire department for the volunteers Stop by Olives on your way home and whose generosity and civic mindedness has thus far spared us that expense.

Their attitude seems to be that residents who have trouble paying their ever rising property taxes should either move to less expensive communities or move from single-family houses into apartments.

Democrats Announce Open House Meeting About Participating in Upcoming Elections

To the Editor: As chair of the Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee (PDMC) and as president of the Princeton Community Democratic Organization (PCDO), respectively, we are writing to encourage all Princeton Democrats to consider serving their community by getting more involved in the local Democratic Party or the local government. In 2018, this year’s election, there will be a Primary Election in June and a General Election in November for two open seats on Princeton Council, as well as for the Congressional seat held by Bonnie Watson Coleman and the senate seat held by Robert Menendez. In Mercer County, we will elect three freeholders; the Democratic incumbents are: Ann Cannon, Pasquale “Pat” Colavita, Jr., and samuel T. “sam” Frisby. We invite you to join us at an open house meeting in Princeton on sunday, February 11, from 3 to 4 p.m. to find out more about running and participating. The meeting, which will be held at a private home, is open to all, but you must RsvP so we can send you the location. Please respond to scotia MacRae at swmacrae@yahoo.com, (609) 468-1720, or to jean@princetondems.org. Topics to be covered include how candidates get on the ballot, the local Democratic Party endorsement process, and the differences between the PDMC and the PCDO. Local candidates should let us know by March 1 at the latest if they intend to seek the endorsement of the PCDO at the March 18 meeting. The outcome of the 2016 presidential election has activated a Blue Wave in our state, resulting in the election of Democrat Phil Murphy to the office of governor and a majority of Democrats in the New Jersey Legislature. We want to thank the Princeton community, as well as the members of the PDMC and the PCDO, for their support of a transparent and vibrant political culture in Princeton that helps keep our government responsive to its residents. sCOTIA W. MACRAE Chair PDMC JeAN DuRbIN, President PCDO

County’s Traumatic Loss Prevention Services Provides List of Warning Signs on Suicide Risk

To the Editor: Creating partnerships and raising awareness while providing systems of support and care are critical. Mercer County’s Traumatic Loss Prevention services program has been coordinating services with schools and community agencies to come up with short-term and long-term strategies, the first of which needs to be identifying warning signs and removing the shame and blame associated with seeking help. These signs may mean that someone is at risk for suicide. • Talking about wanting to die or kill oneself • Looking for a way to kill oneself • Talking about feeling hopeless or having no reason to live • Talking about feeling trapped or being in unbearable pain • Talking about being a burden to others • Increasing the use of alcohol or drugs • Acting anxious or agitated; behaving recklessly • Sleeping too little or too much • Withdrawing or feeling isolated • Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge • Displaying extreme mood swings If you believe someone may be thinking about suicide: • Ask them if they are thinking about killing themselves. • Listen with care and without judgment. • Stay with the person or with another caring person while you get further help. • Remove any objects that could be used in a suicide attempt. • If self-harm seems imminent, call 9-1-1. Each of us can help people navigate the struggles of life to find a sustainable sense of hope, meaning, and purpose through connection and compassion. If you are in crisis, please call the National suicide Prevention Lifeline at (800)-273-TALk (8255) or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALk to 741741. To get involved with Mercer County Traumatic Loss Coalition, contact Steven Olsen at (609) 278-7924 or email solsen@mercercounty.org. Monthly coalition meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month, from 9:30 to 11 a.m., at Mobile Response and Stabilization services, suite 500, 3535 Quakerbridge Road, Hamilton, NJ 08619. sTEvEN OLsEN Mercer County Traumatic Loss Prevention services Coordinator

BOOK REVIEW

The Capacity for Wonder: Dreams, Dreamers, and Frank Borzage Atmosphere is radiance, glamour, warmth, mystery. It is what gives beauty a soul and makes it alive. —F. Scott Fitzgerald s the current news cycle has made clear, Dreamers is a word to be reckoned with, creating instant sympathy for the cause it represents. That’s why the State of the Union speechwriters made a feeble attempt to undermine the cause by having the president say “Dreamers are Americans, too” when it’s generally understood that the true heroes of the narrative of the American dream are the immigrants who came to this country looking for a new life. There’s an echo of that narrative in the closing paragraphs of The Great Gatsby when F. Scott Fitzgerald writes of “the last and greatest of all human dreams,” and of “the enchanted moment” when “man held his breath in the presence of this continent … face to face with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder.” The narrator then thinks of “Gatsby’s wonder when he first picked out the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock. He had come a long way to this blue lawn and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him. somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.” Besides being one of the pinnacles of 20th century American literature, the passage has a cinematic grandeur suggestive of Fitzgerald’s fascination with the pot of Hollywood gold at the other end of the republic. When his three movieland expeditions fell short of his dream, he staked his aesthetic claim with The Last Tycoon, an unfinished, posthumously published novel, and with his screenplay for Eric Maria Remarque’s Three Comrades, where he found a female character he could respond to much as he did to Gatsby’s Daisy. In one of the many paradoxes of Fitzgerald’s embattled film career, two lines of dialogue expressive of his own stylistic ideal, written to define the “radiance, glamour, warmth, mystery” of the film’s heroine, failed to make it into director Frank Borzage’s finished print. As if that weren’t enough, the lines pay inadvertent homage to Borzage’s stylistic ideal, a vision of cinema that “gives beauty a soul and makes it alive.” Fitzgerald may have found some consolation in the fact that Sullavan’s performance in the role he gave so much sympathetic attention to brought her a Best Actress nomination as well as Best Actress awards from the National Board of Review and the New York Film Critics. The First Oscar If Scott Fitzgerald is the Great American Dreamer among writers according to the title of a 1997 A&E documentary, Frank Borzage is the equivalent among Hollywood directors. With the dream makers of Hollywood preparing to stage their annual Academy Awards ceremony, it’s time to point out that Borzage was the winner

A

of the first Best Director Oscar for his silent romance, 7th Heaven (1927). He won another Oscar for Bad Girl (1931), about the struggles of a young couple in Depression era New York, a subject he took on again two years later in Man’s Castle, a masterpiece in spite of being savaged by the censors. Borzage’s biographer Hervé Dumont points to that “unforgettable” film’s last image as proof that Borzage “is among those who dream w ide-awake” ( des rêveurs éveillés).” What sets the closing shot apar t from the stereotypical Holly wood end i n g of e m b r a c ing lovers is the way the couple is viewed, lying on a bed of straw in the boxcar of a moving train, the wom a n’s elab o rate, old-fashioned dress forming the luminous center, a l a n d s c ap e of fabric, pure imager y, t he man nestled up against her, cradled in her arm as if he were her child, as if she were ever y thing and everyone to him, all life, all the world. The full emotional force of this visual poem composed by Borzage and the cinematographer Joseph August depends, however, on the audience’s having witnessed Spencer Tracy’s evolution from a tough, borderline abusive male and Loretta Young’s from a needy, naive, submissive female to the woman bearing his child, both of them nourished and fulfilled by love. The loving supremacy of the woman is a Borzage trope most famously played out in 7th Heaven when Janet Gaylor’s frail, frightened Diane gathers moral strength through love of Charles Farrell’s “remarkable fellow” Chico, who gives her shelter and courage and in the end literally comes back from the dead, blinded by war but reborn through the power of love. You have neither the time nor the inclination to doubt Chico’s resurrection. You, like the director, are dreaming wide-awake “A Special Glow” Borzage’s engagement with another iconic American writer won a Best Picture nomination a year after he scored the Oscar for Bad Girl. Writing in 2014, The Guardian’s John Patterson notes that while Borzage’s 1932 version of A Farewell To Arms “is certainly a great movie, as sublime and rapturous as anything he made,” his “aesthetic values are the polar opposite of Hemingway’s — shimmering and intensely romantic, all his movies feel as if they were shot in heaven — and the

result, which fits snugly into the director’s canon, has no place at all in the writer’s.” You can understand why Hemingway supposedly refused to see the picture of which the New York Times reviewer said, “It is Mr. Borzage rather than Mr. Hemingway who prevails in this film.” You’d think that Hemingway would have wanted to see how his good friend Gary Cooper, born to speak the author’s distinctive dialogue, would handle the role of Frederic Henry. Cooper is everything Papa could have hoped for, particularly in the bleak intimacy of the cafe scene toward the e n d w h e n h e’s desperately murmuring a prayer for his dying lover Catherine Barkley, played by Helen Hayes in one of her rare film roles. Borzage’s magic touch with actors is celebrated by Hayes on two different occasions: “He’s a genius,” she said in 1932, “and I’ve never applied that word to any director of stage or screen b efore.” Ha lf a century later, she recalls his “wonderful gift for intimacy: he knew how to get inside an actor’s hear t and mind, and that rapport gave a special glow to his films.” Waking Strange My entry into Borzage’s dream world happened in the no-man’s-land between sleeping and waking, the room dark except for the gray glow of our 11-inch SONY. I must have dozed off watching something on the Late Show. Another movie’s on the tiny screen, must be the Late Late Show. The picture’s jumping, so I have to move the rabbit ears, still half-asleep as a Devil’s Island prison camp comes into focus. Even in daylight, the sense is of a shadow world more dreamed than real and yet the people moving around in it are vividly physical, and none more so than the bearded convict being pulled out of the black void of solitary confinement, his hands blocking the glare of daylight, a movement I can relate to, having just emerged blinking and disoriented into consciousness. The man has Clark Gable’s voice, but this is no Rhett Butler. He’s too dark: a raw primal life force, giving the guards a hard time, pitching every line with a snarl. I’m still not fully awake when my attention is caught by a distantly familiar woman with nice ankles and a big hat smoking a cigarette and then tossing it aside. The convict picks it up, leering (yes, it is Clark Gable) as he lasciviously licks it, makes love to it;

he’s somehow distracted the guards and is positioned under the pier the woman’s standing on, close enough to grab one of those ankles, which he keeps hold of, twisting it, pulling her back while they trade insults and he arranges to sneak into her room that night. What holds me as I settle into a more wakeful state of mind is the woman. She has Gable’s raw physical vitality, a believable slattern, a tiger, a prostitute with a heart of ice and just a hint of something vulnerable in her voice, and what a face, what cheekbones. By the time the truth sinks in, that this is the same Joan Crawford who starred in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, the future Pepsi CEO played by Jessica Lange in The Feud, everything takes a truly dreamlike turn as a convict with an otherwordly glow in his eyes shows up in time to lead Gable and Crawford and some others on a journey to death and redemption. When I turn on the light, it’s 4 a.m., and I have no idea what I’ve just seen or who directed it though the omniscience of the man with the otherworldly aura makes me think that he must be the filmmaker’s surrogate. It takes some research to find out that the film’s title is Strange Cargo, that it was released in 1940 and directed by someone I never heard of. I don’t even know how to pronounce Borzage. For months I pronounce it to rhyme with corsage when in fact it rhymes with leggy. No matter, I feel that I’ve discovered “something commensurate” with my “capacity for wonder.” Four decades later, with dreams and dreamers dominating the national conversation, the life’s journey that took Frank Borzage to Hollywood complements the American narrative Fitzgerald imagined “beyond the city where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.” Borzage’s father, a stone cutter named Luigi, arrived in America in the early 1880s along with as many as 60,000 other Italians, found work as a coal miner in Hazelton, Pa., and migrated to Salt Lake City, where he and his Swiss wife Maria, another immigrant, raised eight kids, including the child born on Shakespeare’s birthday, April 23, 1894, who left home in his mid-teens with a traveling group of actors and found his way to Hollywood. Borzage on FilmStruck or too many years Frank Borzage’s work was all but inaccessible. The first real sign of progress was the 2008 release of Fox’s massive Borzage/ Murnau set, which includes his Oscar winners 7th Heaven and Bad Girl and has been repackaged in individual DVDs at the Princeton Public Library. Nine other Borzages including Man’s Castle, Three Comrades, A Farewell to Arms, and Strange Cargo are currently available on FilmStruck. My Feb. 20, 2008 column on Man’s Castle and my Jan. 14, 2009 review of the Fox set can be found online. The image behind Borzage on the cover of Dumont’s biography is the final shot of A Farewell to Arms. —Stuart Mitchner

he opportunity to look one’s best at any age is becoming increasingly available. Today, there is no need to go “undercover” or “retire into the shadows” at a “certain age” when so many facial treatments offer very positive rejuvenating results. Whether one opts for a minimum “nip and tuck,” a full makeover lift, or one of the non-invasive treatments, a new look is waiting for you!

IT’S NEW To Us

N i c ol e S ch r ad e r, M D, FACS specializes in facial plastic surgery, both cosmetic and reconstructive, and has practiced for 12 years, most recently in Princeton for the last decade. Her new, expanded office is located at 256 Bunn Drive. She has another location in Robbinsville. Summa Cum Laude Born and brought up in Germany, Dr. Schrader re-

ceived her medical degree from George-August University in Gottigen, where she graduated summa cum laude. This was followed by a residency in otolaryngology/ head and neck surgery at Temple University in Philadelphia, and a fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital through the AAFPRS (American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery). As a double board-certified surgeon in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery and otolar yngology ( ear, nose, and throat specialty) and head/neck surgery, Dr. Schrader can provide specialized treatment, which addresses a patient’s individual features, incorporating symmetry and balance. Her otolaryngology experience brings added dimension to her plastic surgery practice. As she explains, “My background in otolaryngology is helpful in facial plastic surgery, particularly if it involves reconstructive cases or rhinoplasty and nasal surgery.” Her focus today is primarily on facial plastic surgery, both cosmetic and reconstructive. “This field has always interested me,” she says. “I liked being able to help people look and feel better.” Dr. Schrader’s practice includes men, women, and children. The majority of patients are women, who

typically come in to see her around the age of 40-plus. Men are beginning to come in greater numbers, she adds. “They are all working and want to look younger. There is so much competition in the workplace today that they feel they need to look their best.” Realistic Expectations Face lifts are the most common surgeries, as well as rhinoplasties and eyelid lifts. A full face lift includes the cheeks, jawline, and neck. It can last several years and usually involves a two-week recovery period, she notes. “We use photography to show the patient what the outcome can look like,” explains Dr. Schrader. “I place emphasis on realistic expectations, and most of the patients are realistic about the hoped-for result.” She pursues a conservative approach, which results in a “youthful and rejuvenated look that is natural and inconspicuous,” she explains. Non-surgical treatments are becoming more and more popular, and many patients opt for non-invasive filler injections, including Botox, Juvederm, Restylane, and others. They are especially designed to reduce and smooth out lines, wrinkles, and folds around the nose and mouth areas. Results typically last six months to a year. Although most patients for these treatments tend to be

older, Dr. Schrader reports that “I am beginning to see patients in their 20s now who want to have Botox for prevention. If it is used earlier, it can help prevent lines and wrinkles from getting too deep later on.” Dr. Schrader also offers advanced and state-of-theart procedures such as fat grafting, PRP (platelet-rich plasma), and thread mini lifts to improve skin texture and lift tissue in the early stage of aging. “I will often combine surgery with the use of fillers and skin care,” she adds. “The non-invasive procedures are really increasing, and I am actually doing more of these than surgeries.” Dr. Schrader’s practice also includes a variety of skin peels, including chemical, exfoliating, pigment lightening, and others. In addition, a number of different types of facials and body treatments are available by her aesthetician at the onsite medical spa. State-of-the-Art Her new expanded location includes a state-of-theart treatment area, where she performs non-invasive procedures as well as small surgeries, such as eyelid lifts. For more involved surgeries, Dr. Schrader is affiliated with the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro and the University of Pennsylvania, where she is clinical assistant professor in the department of otorhinolaryngology. She is a member of the American Academy of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery; the American Academy of

The Anne Reid ’72 Art Gallery at Princeton Day School (PDS) presents “Adaptation: An Exploration of Scale” featuring the work of artists Lindsay Feuer, PDS science teacher Carrie Norin, and Madelaine Shellaby, on view from February 12 through March 8. There will be an artists’ reception on Thursday, February 15 from 5 to 7 p.m. The exhibit and reception are free and open to the public. The exhibition features microscopic cell photography, biological fantasies, and botanical imagery from three accomplished artists. Lindsay Feuer’s porcelain sculptures animate everyday organic plants and turn them into whimsical daydreams. Feuer creates capricious sculptural forms using luminescent porcelain, which invoke the natural world while remaining beautiful imaginary sculptures. Princeton Day School biology teacher Dr. Carrie Norin uses digital microscopy to investigate dried and living plant material to visually explore structures important

to biological evolution. All plants were sourced from the PDS campus and greenhouse, then sliced, stained, and photographed at high levels of magnification. She manipulates images to accentuate the intersection between art and science. N or i n c om m e nte d , “My photography aims to honor the evolutionary adaptations that have shaped the plant kingdom for hundreds of millions of years, while revealing their hidden beauty at the cellular level.” Madelaine Shellaby’s digital photographs combine exotic organic forms to create playful still lifes. Her hybrid fruits and flowers are added to collages, drawings, and paintings, taking us into her imaginary world. Regarding the exhibit, Gallery Director Jody Erdman noted, “These three artists derive their work from nature in accidentally parallel and connected ways. Their astonishing viewpoints give us fortuitous fantasies of the natural world in which we live.” The exhibit is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, when the school is in session and by appointment on weekends.

BSB Gallery Opens on East State Street in Trenton

The newest addition to Trenton’s arts community will host a grand opening on Saturday, February 10, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The BSB Gallery is located in the former Broad Street Bank building at 143 East State Street in Trenton, at the corner of Montgomery and East State streets. The gallery is Trenton Downtown Association’s (TDA) latest contribution to the Creek to Canal Creative District (C2C), Trenton’s first arts and cultural district. This new space will be a platform to promote and recognize all the extraordinary art being created in the capital city. “The Influence of Women” is the opening exhibit, profiling a diverse and unique sample of the talent in the city. Curated by Meaghan Singletary and Craig Shofed, the show includes the works of local artists Tamara Torr e s, Ayl i n G r e e n, K ate

Jensen. The new gallery reactivates one of Trenton’s many historic buildings. The space in the former Broad Street Bank has high ceilings, huge columns, and the original ornate light fixtures. The mechanical works in each of the doors are all individually artistically engraved. The existing vault doors are works of art by themselves. TDA’s investment in the gallery space was spirited to leverage one of the city’s most valuable assets: Trenton’s arts community. The new gallery is supported by grant funding provided by the George H. and Estelle M. Sands Foundation and by Isles, Inc. with support from the New Jersey Neighborhood Revitalization Tax Credit Program. BSB Gallery will be open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting Thursday, February 15.

moments that brought them there, Stop Kiss is a poignant play about the power of love even in the face of the unthinkable. Variety describes Stop Kiss as a “series of snapshots of urban lives and the pleasures and hazards that can define and shape them.” In a day and age when intolerance seems to be seen every time you turn on the TV, a play like Stop Kiss strikes a chord in a way that is different than when it first premiered. The issues raised in Stop Kiss about prejudiced violence and the discovering of one’s sexuality are still topics that are of much discussion. Theatre Intime’s production hopes to emphasize the universality of the message that Stop Kiss relays. Tickets for Stop Kiss are $12 general admission, $10 for Princeton University faculty and senior citizens and $8 for students.

CURTAIN CALL: Kelsey Theatre Artistic Director M. Kitty Getlik is taking a turn as the show’s director and is having a wonderful time. “It’s a play-within-a play; actually it’s two plays-withina-play, making for some very frantic and funny scenes. I am so fortunate to be working with such a talented cast. Rehearsals have been fast-paced and hilarious,” she said. M&M Stage Productions presents Ken Ludwig’s “Moon Over Buffalo.”

A theater couple with a last chance at stardom sets the stage for nonstop farce at Mercer County Community College’s (MCCC’s) Kelsey Theatre. M&M Stage Productions presents Ken Ludwig’s Moon Over Buffalo Fridays, February 23 and March 2 at 8 p.m.; Saturdays, February 24 and March 3 at 8 p.m.; and Sundays, February 25 and March 4 at 2 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college’s West Windsor Campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road. A reception with the cast and crew follows the opening night performance on February 23. Ve t e r a n s t a g e a c t o r s George and Charlotte Hay are perilously close to the final act of their uninspired careers. Appearing at a repertory theater in Buffalo, New York, their small acting troupe is performing two Topics stage classics in rotation: the Noel Coward comedy Private Lives and Edmond

Rostand’s drama, Cyrano de Bergerac. In the middle of a marital spat, the couple gets word that a famous Hollywood director is coming to town in hopes of casting them as the replacement stars for his current film. Tickets are $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, and $14 for students and children. Tickets may be purchased online at www.kelseytheatre.net or by calling the Kelsey Box Office at (609) 570-3333. Kelsey Theatre is wheelchair accessible, with free parking next to the theater. For a complete listing of adult and children’s events, visit the Kelsey website or call the box office for a brochure.

Pianist Erik Allesee in Conservatory Recital

Westminster Conser vatory at Nassau will present pianist Erik Allesee in a solo recital on Thursday, February 15 at 12:15 p.m. in the Niles Chapel of Nassau Presbyterian Church, 61 Nassau Street in Princeton.

The performance is free and open to the public. The program includes the Sonata in D Major, K. 96 by Domenico Scarlatti; Frederic Chopin’s Impromptu no. 1 in A-flat Major, op. 29 and Etude in F Major, op. 10, no. 8; Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in G Minor, op. 23, no. 6 and Prelude in D Major, op. 23, no. 5; “Mercutio” from Ten Pieces for Piano, op. 75 by Sergei Prokofiev; and Maurice Ravel’s Alborada del Gracioso. While in high school, Erik Allesee participated in numerous recitals and competitions in southwest Florida. He twice won the Southwest Florida Concerto Competition, which resulted in the opportunity to perform with the Fort Myers Symphony. He was also a featured soloist with the Port Charlotte Symphony. After 12 years of piano study, Allesee entered Oberlin Conservatory, where he studied with Sedmara Rutstein. He was awarded a

bachelor of music degree in piano performance in 1994. He continued his studies at Westminster Choir College of Rider University, studying with José Ramos-Santana. He completed his master’s degree in 1997. He is the former head of the piano department at Mercer County Community College, where he taught many of the school’s private and group piano lessons for 15 years. He currently enjoys giving lecture recitals in central and southern New Jersey in addition to teaching piano lessons to all ages at the Westminster Conservatory of Music. This program is made possible in part by the Mercer County Cultural and Heritage Commission through funding from the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders and the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.

Gay Teen Seduces Dad’s Doctoral Student in Adaptation of Novel

I

ally, the relationship is consummated during a midnight rendezvous that is the beginning of a secret affair that will last for the balance of Oliver’s stay. Thus unfolds Call Me by Your Name, a deliberatelypaced adaptation of André Aciman’s coming-of-age novel of the same name. Directed by native Sicilian Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love), the homoerotic film received four Academy Award nominations in the Best Picture, Lead Actor (Timothee Chalamet), Screenplay, and Song categories. Fair warning, the film never raises the question of statutory rape that is likely to arise in the minds of many audience members, given today’s sensitivity to sexual abuse issues. Nevertheless, this bittersweet movie deserves all the accolades its been showered with for its portrayal of a gay teen who is apprehensive about sharing his sexual preference with his parents. The movie is memorable because of the very delicate and supportive manner in which Dr. Perlman handles his son’s an xieties about coming out. The film features remarkable performances by Michael Stuhlbarg, A r m i e H a m m e r, a n d Timothee Chalamet. E x c e l l e n t ( HHHH ) . Rated R for sexuality, nudity, and some profanity. Running time : 132 minutes. In English, Italian, French, Hebrew, and German with subtitles. Production Studios: Frenesy Film Company/ La Cinefacture/RT Feat ures / Waters E nd Productions/M.Y.R.A. Entertainment. Distributor: Sony Pictures ClasTHIS COULD BE THE BEGINNING OF A BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP: Dr. Michael Perlman (Michael sics. Stuhlbarg, center), introduces his son Elio (Timothee Chalamet, left) to Oliver (Armie Hammer), —Kam Williams who will be living with the family during their summer stay in northern Italy.

n 1983, 17-year-old Elio Perlman (Timothee Chalamet) is spending another summer in Lombardy, in northern Italy, with his parents. Each year, Elio’s father (Michael Stuhlbarg), an archaeology professor, invites a different doctoral candidate to live with his family over the summer and be his research assistant. This year, the guest is Oliver (Armie Hammer) who is Jewish and gay. That’s just fine with Elio, who’s exploring his sexuality and has been dating a local girl (Esther Garrel), until Oliver arrives at the villa. It isn’t long before Elio realizes that he is developing feelings for the 24-year-old Oliver, who is quick to understand what is happening. Elio and Oliver spend long stretches of time flirting with each other, whether it’s swimming in the lake, canoodling at a cafe, or taking walks along the shore. So, despite the teasing courtship dance, there’s never a question of whether they’ll sleep together. Eventu-

PU Men’s Hockey Tops St. Lawrence in OT As Senior Goalie Halford Stars in Relief

W

hen Ben Halford came to Baker Rink last Friday, he was expecting to play his accustomed supporting role for the Princeton University men’s hockey team as its backup goalie. The Tigers jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first eight minutes over St. Lawrence and it appeared Halford would be witnessing a rout from his seat on the bench. But after the Saints scored four unanswered goals to forge ahead 4-3 with 7:47 left in the second period, Halford was summoned onto the ice by Princeton head coach Ron Fogarty to replace freshman starter Ryan Ferland. “You have just got to get right into it,” said Halford. “It is pretty simple, you don’t want to overcomplicate things when you are coming off the bench. You just try to see the puck.” Halford made four saves in

seven minutes of action in the second period as Princeton knotted the game at 4-4 on a goal by Ryan Kuffner with 6:13 left in the frame. “It helped to just kind of move around a little bit and see the puck and get that warm-up that you don’t get when you are not starting,” said Halford, a 6’3, 205-pound native of Lenox, Mass. “You get settled in.” Getting settled in, Halford ended up making 16 saves in 32:03 of action as neither team tallied in the third period and Kuffner notched his third goal of the game with 44 seconds left in OT to give the Tigers a dramatic 5-4 win. “The end of the second helped and guys blocked a lot of shots and kept things in front of me,” added Halford, who recorded nine stops in the third and three more in overtime. “In overtime, it is just one shot at a time, one play at a time, and

for Kuff to go down and bury that, that was huge.” A night later, Halford was back in his normal spot on the bench with Ferland making 33 saves as Princeton edged No. 3 Clarkson 4-3 in improving to 10-10-3 overall and 7-8-1 ECAC Hockey. “You just try and support him. I am a little older than he is,” said Halford, reflecting on his relationship with Ferland. “I have been around a little longer at this point. I just try and support him. With any of the rinks we are going to and any teams we are playing, I just try to give him as much information as I can so he can succeed.” For Halford, succeeding against St. Lawrence to earn his second career win was a major highlight. “It is nice to build on Bemidji last year,” said Halford, who made 43 saves in earning his first win as the Tigers topped No. 7 Bemidji 3-2 on November 26, 2016. “In the Arizona State game (a 4-3 loss on December 9), we were close and lost that in overtime. It is nice to get the chance to bounce back and win one in OT this time.” Princeton head coach Ron Fogarty enjoyed a nice moment as the victory over St. Lawrence marked the 200th win of his career, having posted a 167-23-10 record at Adrian College before taking the helm of the Tigers for the 2014-15 campaign. “I will definitely remember this one; I remember win No. 1, a 9-1 win and I will remember this one as an overtime win,” said a beaming Fogarty, holding a game puck presented to him in a raucous post-game locker room celebration. “There is a lot of people in between there who are part of this, especially the family. It is all about that, the dedication from coach’s family to the assistant coach’s family to the players’ family. Without the support, you don’t get to where you are in this world these days. I just want to thank those guys.” Even though his guys squandered the 3-0 lead against St. Lawrence, Fogarty was confident that the Tigers would ultimately prevail

FORD TOUGH: Princeton University men’s hockey goalie Ben Halford guards the net. Last Friday, senior Halford came off the bench, making 16 saves and not giving up a goal in 32:03 of action as Princeton rallied from a 4-3 deficit to beat St. Lawrence 5-4 in overtime. The Tigers, who edged No. 3 Clarkson 4-3 a night later in improving to 10-10-3 overall and 7-8-1 ECAC Hockey, play at Brown on February 9 and at Yale on February 10.

if they kept firing away. “We just had to keep getting shots on their goaltender, which has been our game the last three,” said Fogarty. “We knew that if we just get back to focus for the third period and do the little things, we would have an opportunity to win.” The inspired play of Halford in goal helped pave the way to the win. “It was great; Ben is a senior and has embraced his role,” said Fogarty. “He was ready to step in there. I kick myself a little bit there; I was thinking of pulling Ferland a little sooner but it worked out in

the end.” With Princeton currently riding a four-game winning streak, Fogarty believes his team is ready for a big stretch drive. “The guys know they can score, sometimes they make too many plays to try to score instead of just getting pucks on net because we are a good team and can create that chaos in the offensive zone,” said Fogarty, whose team plays at Brown on February 9 and at Yale on February 10. “We have skilled players and you have to let them play. We are not going to

take the puck out of their hands; I want them to shoot more.” Halford, for his part, is primed to play hard to the end. “I am just trying to go at it, have fun every day, and see what we can do here,” said Halford, who has a 2.97 goals against average and a .901 save percentage in five appearances so far this season. “We have got a good group. We just want to keep that momentum and hopefully pick up steam a little bit going down the stretch.” —Bill Alden

Haunted by Former Hun Star Cambridge, Tiger Men’s Hoops Falls to Brown in OT

FALLING HARD: Princeton University men’s basketball player Devin Cannady, right, dives to the floor for a loose ball in a game earlier this season. Last Saturday, junior star Cannady scored 27 points in a losing cause as Princeton fell 102-100 to Brown in overtime. The Tigers, who dropped to 11-9 overall and 3-2 Ivy League with the setback, were slated to host Penn on February 6 before playing at Harvard on February 9 and at Dartmouth on February 10.

As a post-graduate player for the Hun School boys’ basketball team last winter, Desmond Cambridge headed across town to Princeton University to play some pick-up games at Jadwin Gym. “When Princeton was recruiting me, I came up here to play with the guys five or six times,” said Cambridge. “I got a feel for the gym; I didn’t really like it at first. It is a weird, funky gym. I got accustomed to it.” Cambridge returned to Jadwin last Saturday as the star freshman guard for Brown University and his familiarity with the surroundings paid dividends. Coming out on fire, Cambridge scored 19 points in the first half as the teams were tied 49-49 at halftime. Late in the second half, Cambridge drained a pair of free throws to help force overtime as the foes ended regulation knotted at 90-90. In overtime, the 6’4, 180-pound guard hit a gamewinning three-pointer to cap a 32-point performance as Brown prevailed 102-100. “The play was for me to get the shot but it kind of got jumbled,” said Cambridge, recalling his final bucket of the evening. “I just got it. I was feeling it all night so I just shot it and it went in. It felt good, it looked good, and it went in. It was great. Princeton head coach Mitch Henderson tipped his hat to Cambridge. “That was an incredible

performance by Brown; it came down to an incredible shot,” said Henderson, whose team entered the evening riding a 19-game Ivy League home winning streak and dropped to 11-9 overall and 3-2 Ivy. “It seemed like every single time they got an open look, it was going in. On that last one Devin [Cannady] was right on him. Cambridge made a lot of really tough shots; that was an incredible performance and one of the better performances I have ever seen in Jadwin. Unfortunately it was on the other team.” The setback was an unfortunate loss for the Tigers, who dropped to third in the Ivy standings. “That is a hard loss and on the weekend, we are not where we need to be,” said Henderson, whose team defeated Yale 76-73 in overtime on Friday. “I am confident that Devin and his teammates and with the leadership of the group, we are going to get ourselves back on track. There is a lot of basketball left in the league.” While Cannady scored 27 points and made a number of spectacular shots himself in matching Cambridge for most of the night, he acknowledged that he needed to be sharper at the defensive end. “I didn’t really feel the duel,” said Cannady. “I thought I could have defended a lot better. It would have

given us a better chance to win but he played a hell of a game. He was making tough shots.” Despite Cambridge’s heroics, Henderson still thought the Tigers were going to pull out the win. “Little plays here or there ended up making the difference in the game,” lamented Henderson. “I thought up four (89-85) with 36 seconds left, that was going to be our game.” One of the key plays came at the end of regulation when Tiger junior star Myles Stephens swooped in for a potential game-winning lay-up only to have it blocked by Cambridge. “We wanted Myles to have the ball in that situation, the kid made a great play,” said Henderson. “I think it was a lot more than that. In the first half, we gave up 49 points and we couldn’t stop them.” The loss to Brown put the Tigers in a dicey situation as they look to stay in the top four in the league standings and qualify for the upcoming Ivy postseason tournament. “This is a really tough stretch here for us,” said Henderson, whose team was slated to host Penn on February 6 before playing at Harvard on February 9 and at Dartmouth on February 10. “We have got one more at home and four more on the road so we have got to get back on our feet.” —Bill Alden

With Senior Captain Zammit Leading the Way, PHS Girls’ Hockey Making Solid Progress

Having lost 11-4 to Summit in late December, the Princeton High girls’ hockey team was looking forward to a rematch between the foes last week in the annual State Cup game. “Everyone was really excited to play them again,” said PHS senior defenseman and captain Alexa Zammit, reflecting on the January 30 contest. “We were really working on spreading the puck out

and passing, just really using as much as ice as possible. Even with the newer players, we worked on their skills as well.” The Little Tigers showed some skill early on against Summit, jumping out to a 3-2 lead after the first period. Zammit extended the PHS advantage to 4-2 early in the second period on a breakaway goal. “I have also been working

on my skills so I am glad to see that paying off,” said Zammit. Bringing a 5-3 lead into the third period, PHS faltered dow n t he stretch, giving up four unanswered goals to fall behind 7-5. “In the third period, we struggled to possess the puck a little bit,” said Zammit, reflecting on the Summit rally. “We couldn’t get it out of the zone; they got a couple of big shots.” While PHS battled to narrow the gap to 7-6 with 2:39 remaining in regulation, it couldn’t get any closer as it ultimately fell 9-6. “I think it is great that we kept fighting all the way to end,” said Zammit. “I am definitely all for playing to the buzzer.” Wit h PH S reb ou nd i ng from the loss to Summit to defeat Pingry 6-4 last Friday and improve to 7-5-3, Zammit believes the Little Tigers have been playing better and better over the course of the winter. “I think since the beginning of the year, everyone has improved so much,” said Zammit. “I am really proud of the hard work and the effort that they have put into everything, their dedication and taking time out of their everyday schedules to practice. Most of the time, it is two mornings a week at 5:30.” In addition to her work on the ice, Zammit has honed her leadership skills over her PHS career.

“This is my second year as a captain and I am so honored to be able to lead my team,” said Zammit. “They are a really great group of girls, they are amazing. It has been really fun.” As the team’s top defenseman, Zammit leads the way in that zone. “It has been different from my club team,” said Zammit, who plays for the N.J. Rockets. “I need to be a little more reserved at times; I need to make sure I am smart with the plays that I choose to

make. I think for the most part it has helped.” PHS has been helped by t he connection bet ween Zammit and her younger sister, sophomore star forward Victoria. “We started playing hockey together in middle school,” said Zammit. “It is really coming together nicely with the passing.” With PHS wrapping up the season by competing in the WIHLMA (Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic) tournament at Shady Side Acad-

emy in Pittsburgh, Pa. from February 16-18, Zammit is hoping for a nice finish to her high school career. “I am definitely trying to enjoy the rest of the season as much as possible,” said Zammit. “It has been really great; it is a little sad to have to leave. I am really glad with how much everyone has improved and how the program itself is picking up. I am leaving it in a good place.” —Bill Alden

Freddie Young Jr. was primed for the first postseason appearance of his high school career as the Princeton Day School boys’ basketball team hosted the Doane Academy in the state Prep B quarterfinals last Sunday. “Coming into it I was thinking, we just beat them (74-71 on January 13) and we should be able to do it again,” said Young. “We had to play our hardest and to our full potential.” Young played well from the outset, scoring the first five points of the game for PDS. “Once I made my first shot and my second shot, I knew

ture player,” said Young. “I wasn’t as calm and collected as I am now and it is just a whole different feeling. I can slow the place of the game, I am just more in control.” PDS head coach Kerr y Foderingham feels lucky to have Young on his team. “Freddie is unbelievable; as a freshman to be able to have the poise and toughness to go out there and compete on the varsity level every night, it is huge,” said Foderingham. T h e Pa nt h e r s s h owe d poise collectively, going on a 9-0 run in the fourth quarter coming out of timeout called with 5:35 remaining in the game when they fell behind by six. “Our coaching staff was saying that we needed a timeout,” said Foderingham. “I called it and I thought we got the guys refocused. It was good.” Coit showed focus in making the game-winning shot, t a k i ng mat ter s i nto h is hands, calling for the ball and then driving hard to the hoop to get room for a running jumper. “Diggy is a big time player; I said to him at the end that big time players make big time plays,” said Foderingham of Coit, who tallied 22 points in the win. “He calls for a clear-out isolation and I am the type of coach that will give it to him. He has worked on his game for those moments.” Having injury-plagued star

it was going to be my game and I wanted to keep going,” said Young. After trailing 13-9 entering the second quarter, the Panthers got going, outscoring the Spartans 21-16 to forge ahead 30-29 at halftime. “When we first started that quarter, it was moving slow and then we made one shot and then two shots,” said Young. “Then all of a sudden we got hyped and started to play as a team and it just got better and better from there.” PDS stayed hyped, rallying from a 49-43 deficit in the fourth quarter to pull out a 57-55 win on a buzzerbeating bucket from junior star and team captain Diggy Coit. Young has been soaking up a lot from working with Coit. “I love playing with him, I really do,” said Young. “He teaches me, he is like my mentor he is like my big bro.” Coming through in the clutch like his mentor, Young made a key layup with less than two minutes remaining in regulation to put the Panthers up 54-50. “Nobody was open and I had to take it to the basket,” recalled Young, who ended up with 19 points in the contest. Young’s superb performance in the tourney opener is a testament to his growth on the court this winter. “As I came into the season, I was kind of an imma-

Jaylin Champion available to play was a key factor for PDS in the game as he chipped in 10 points and nine rebounds. “Obviously Jaylin is a talented player, but he is an emotional leader,” said Foderingham. “His energy brings a lot to the team. I think that is a big part of this.” The Panthers drew energy from its reserves as Luke Franzoni had t wo points and 10 rebounds while Donovan Davis contributed two points, eight rebounds, two assists, and three steals. “Having everyone healthy and getting everyone back on the court is big for us; we have great contributors off the bench,” said Foderingham. With PDS hosting Springside-Chestnut Hill (Pa.) on February 8 before playing at first-seeded MorristownBeard in the Prep B semis on February 11, Foderingham believes the team’s grit will serve it well. “We were down with a couple of minutes to go and we showed a lot of toughness to win that game,” said Foderingham, whose team topped Moorestown Friends 57-48 last Monday to improve to 11-11 Young, for his part, enjoyed playing a big role in helping PDS get a win in his postseason debut. “It is my first time having this experience,” said Young. “The whole team is happy and hyped, it is a good feeling. We started off kind of slow; we have a lot more chemistry now.” —Bill Alden

With Sindhwani Gaining Confidence PDS Girls’ Hockey Primed for Playoffs Sasha Sindhwani didn’t w a s te a ny t i m e g e t t i n g things going for the Princeton Day School girls’ hockey team as it hosted Randolph High last Thursday. The junior forward flew up the ice and found the back of the net 24 seconds into the contest. “It was just a really nice opportunity for me,” said Sindhwani. “I am just really glad I took it.” Sindhwani’s early tally set the tone as PDS pulled away to a 9-1 win over Randolph in improving to 6-10-2. “ We got ever yone out playing today,” said Sindhwani. “Everyone was just passing really well today and we got ever yone to score.” Sindhwani, who was the top scorer this past fall for the PDS field hockey team with 24 goals, showed that she has a finishing touch on the ice as well, achieving her first hat trick in the win over Randolph. “I had four; it was going back to field hockey season,” said a smiling Sindhwani. While field hockey is her main spor t, Sindhwani looks forward to spending time on the ice.

“I think it is more of a break because I really like this team, it is really like a family,” said Sindhwani. “It doesn’t help my game too much because I am lefthanded in ice hockey and there is only one hand in field hockey.” The athletic Sindhwani has shown a lot of improvem ent in her ice hockey skills this season. “I think my stick handling has improved,” said Sindhwani. “The passing all around the team has improved and that has helped me as well.” For Sindhwani, playing ice hockey helps her stay sharp as a competitor. “You come out here with the same mindset as playing with these club teams and I think that is really helpful too,” said Sindhwani. PDS head coach Lorna C o ok l i ke s t h e m i n d s e t Sindhwani is bringing to the ice. “Sasha played so well yesterday; she was flying out there against a really good Portledge team (a 2-0 loss on January 31),” said Cook. “Her confidence has gone way up and you can just see it and it is great to see her get rewarded like that. It is her first hat trick and then she adds another one too, so that was pretty cool.” It was cool for Cook to see a number of her players get rewarded with goals against Randolph. “It was great for the team, you see the energy on the bench and how excited they were,” said Cook, who had three players, Hannah Chloe, Aaliyah Sayed, and Brianna Astbury, each score their first career goal in the win over Randolph. “T h e y were a l l t r y i ng to get the puck to players that don’t get as many chances.” With PDS hosting a state Prep semifinal on Friday, Cook is looking for maxi-

mum effort at both ends of the ice. “I think our big thing is that we tend to play really well against better teams and then we tend to play dow n a little bit against te a m s t hat are slower,” said Cook, whose team will also be taking part in the WIHLMA (Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic) tournament at the Shady Side Academv (Pa.) from February 16-18. “It is just a matter of making sure that we put in our full effort and play the way that we want to play and getting contributions from everybody. We have got to find the back of the net. Our defensive-zone coverage has gotten a lot better.” I n C o o k ’s v i e w, te a m chemistry has helped the team get better as the season has unfolded. “They are excited to be here, t hey are ready to work; it has definitely been a tougher season than we are used to with this program,” said Cook. “The fact that they are still positive is a testament to the way that the room is. They love being around each other. You have to work to maintain that and t hey have done a really good job of making sure that they keep that in the forefront. You have to be supportive of each other. You have to make sure that you come here with a really good attitude and make it fun for everyone else, they have definitely done that.” Sindhwani, for her part, believes that the Panthers are in for some fun times down the stretch. “I think the focus is mostly team bonding; we are doing a really good job of connecting on the ice, so now it is more off the ice as well,” said Sindhwani. “We are going out there to just have a really good time and try to win those games and see what we can do together.” —Bill Alden

Anchoring Defense for PDS Girls’ Hoops, Coyne Relishing Final Season on the Court Over the last four years, Maddie Coyne spearheaded the defense for Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team, helping the Panthers to four state Prep B titles. This winter, the willowy Coyne is standing tall for the PDS girls’ basketball team, anchoring things around the basket for the Panthers. Last Wednesday, Coyne had 12 blocked shots and seven rebounds in a losing cause as the Panthers fell 44-28 to WW/P-North. For Coyne, excelling at the defensive end comes naturally. “I just think it is because I am big. I have always been a defensive player, even when I was young,” said Coyne. “I keep things organized and I have a couple of blocked shots. That is my thing.” A g a i n s t W W/ P- N or t h , things didn’t look too organized on the offensive end as the Panthers trailed 27-9 at halftime. “It star ted out kind of slow,” said Coyne. “Our shots weren’t hitting in the beginning. We picked it up, which was good.” PDS star ted hitting its stride in the third quarter as it outscored the Northern Knights 13-12. “We did what we were told, we came out with energy,” said Coyne. “We had plays where there would be an isolation with the person at the top and then we come off with screens.” Getting open on some of those plays, Coyne tallied eight points but it wasn’t enough as the Panthers couldn’t overcome the halftime deficit on the way to the 44-28 setback. “I will bring it up and give it to somebody at the point and then I will cut real hard down low and then I will try to get the shot,” said Coyne, who contributed 17 points last Sunday as fifthseeded PDS fell 53-44 to fourth-seeded Academy of St. Elizabeth in the state Prep B quarterfinals to drop

to 3-14. Having committed to attending George Washington University and play for its Division I women’s soccer program, Coyne is savoring her final basketball campaign. “This year it is basically about hav ing f un,” said Coyne, who played hoops her first two years and then took last winter off as she focused on her soccer recruiting process. “I am so happy to be back. I love the girls, Ryan [Robinson], Kate [Bennett], and Bridget [Kane]. I have been

with them for four years. The four of us will go, have lunch together, and hang out together. It is so fun.” With PDS hosting South Hunterdon on February 8 before starting play in the Mercer County Tournament, Coyne is hoping to have some fun down the home stretch of the season. “Sometimes we will come out slow and then we will be even the rest of the game,” said Coyne. “We lose by the amount that we let up in the first quarter; that is annoying. We need to be playing the full game.” —Bill Alden

Coming into the state Prep B indoor championship meet last Saturday, Len Klepack wasn’t expecting his Stuart Country Day team to end up with the title. “I thought we would maybe be in the top three because Villa Walsh would have too much distance strength; I think they won four of the last five titles and it would be very difficult to beat them,” said Stuart head coach Len Klepack in assessing the competition that was held in the Lavino Field House at the Lawrenceville School. “We planned on getting the most points that we could with the squad we had.” Rising to the occasion, Stuart piled up the most points at the meet, getting 72 to edge runner-up Villa Walsh, which ended up with 69.50. It marked the firstever state indoor crown for the Tartans. “We had personal bests from a lot of the girls,” said Klepack, reflecting on his squad’s performance. “It became the team championship because so many people raised their level.” Senior star Michelle Kwafo emerged as Stuart’s best performer at the meet, winning the 55-meter dash, the 200 dash, and the 55 hurdles. “Michelle has matured a lot as an athlete this year in learning how to prepare,” said Klepack, noting that Kwafo’s 7.35 time in the 55 dash broke a school record that had stood for 10 years. “She always had the natural talent but she is learning that it takes more than that, and she is applying it. You have to do your drills, you have got to do endurance work, and you have to have proper preparation before the race.”

The example set by Kwafo is having a positive influence on her teammates. “That maturity is going to help the whole team because they see someone with her talent doing stuff and know it takes more than talent,” said Klepack. “Michelle is definitely going to go to another level and I don’t think she has touched her potential. She has the leg speed and the hurdles is a technical event; she is getting better and better.” Showing talent and versatility, junior Priscilla Francois made a big contribution for the Tartans, taking sixth in the 55 dash, fourth in the 55 hurdles, fourth in the 400, and helping the 4x400 relay to victory. “It is easy when you are just doing a dash but Priscilla ran the 4x400, she ran the 400 where she came close to a personal best, and she ran the dash,” said Klepack. “We haven’t really used her in the hurdles all year but we felt against that competition, she could score and she did. She had to run trials in the dash and the hurdles.” In the high jump, Allison Walsh scored some crucial points for the Tartans as she cleared 5’0 to win the title. “One of the senior captains, Allison Walsh, had to win on her third jump, her last attempt, so that was clutch,” said Klepack, noting that Walsh’s jump tied a school record. “Also in the high jump, out of nowhere, Michaela Meyer goes six inches higher that her previous best and gets third.” Stuart got some other key performances out of no where as sophomore Alex Ottomanelli took sixth in

the 400 and ran a leg for the victorious 4x400, sophomore Heather Kwafo took third in the 200 and fifth in the 55 while sophomore Taj’hana Tyson placed sixth in the shot put. “We put Alex in the 400, she is a good sprinter and she ran her personal best to score in the 400,” said Klepack. “That was important and then she runs her best leg also in the 4x400. Heather had personal records in two events; we didn’t expect that third in the 200. You have a sophomore like Taj’hana Tyson and she scores in the shot with her personal best. So it is the unexpected added to what you knew would be solid.” Despite all of the individual heroics, the title came down to the final event of the meet, the 4x400, with Stuart needing to better Villa Walsh’s time of 4:43.41 to clinch the crown. “We ended up beating their time with a new school record,” said Klepack, whose 4x40 0 quar tet include d senior Kendra Brenya and freshman Cara Carr in addition to Francois and Ottomanelli. “The girls were so into it; each girl ran a personal best leg. They went out and really did something special.” In Klepack’s view, his athletes will gain lessons in the long run from their special performance last Saturday. “I think it tells the girls if they work hard, certain t h ings can happen t hat carry over for Stuart in athletics and academics,” said Klepack. “These kids are good in academics ; you can balance both, and that is what we have been pushing. You can enjoy the lessons from sport which will make you even better academically.” —Bill Alden

PU Coach Ayres Giving Back to Community, Helping Princeton Wrestling Club’s Growth Upon taking the helm of the Princeton Universit y wrestling team in 2006, Chris Ayres worked relentlessly to get the struggling program on the winning track. Utilizing vision, energy, and an upbeat approach, Ayres has taken the Tigers to unprecedented heights, guiding t hem to second place in the Ivy League the last two seasons and earning top-5 finishes in the EIWA over that span. With the program having turned the corner, Ayres has turned his focus to helping the sport grow in the Princeton community, taking a more active role in the Princeton Wrestling Club (PWC). “We started having success on the college team, so basically I felt like internally that we were doing pretty good and like we needed to reach out into the community,” said Ayres. “The college team is a special thing, but it needs to be bigger than just the alumni; we need to pull in the town.” Employing the persuasiveness that helped him draw top flight wrestlers to Pr inceton, Ay res has been making a pitch to area youngsters. “I have been working hard to pull the community into the university,” said Ayres,

noting that the club includes the PWC Youth (grades 3-8) and Tiger Cub ( K-2) programs. “What we are trying to do with wrestling is to say we are part of the community. For myself, I went to three of the local schools and did wrestling presentations, basically recruiting kids from Community Park, Johnson Park, and the JW Middle School.” PWC has seen its number of youth wrestlers go from around 40 to 70 over the last three years. Reflecting the increased interest, the PWC will be holding its Tiger Classic on February 7 at Dillon Gym featuring Delaware River Wrestling League youth matches before the Princeton wrestling team hosts Cornell in a critical Ivy showdown. In addition, PWC also includes the Princeton Regional Training Center (RTC), Elite high school program, and a boosters group. “We joke that we serve wrestling from the cradle to the grave,” said Ayres, pointing out that the RTC program includes athletes in their 20s and 30s. Noting that he serves in an assistant coaching role, Ayres is happy to provide support to John Bartzak, who leads the Youth and Cub program along with

Dr. Bruce Rose. Joe Jamison leads the Elite program, helped by Ayres’s Princeton staff. Crediting wrestling with changing the course of his life, Ayres is hoping to help others have a similar experience. “For me, this all stems from what wrestling did for me,” said Ayres, a former star for Lehigh University whose son, Atticus, and daughter, Chloe, both compete for PWC. “B as ic a l ly, I probably would not have gone to college if I had not wrestled. I am trying to pay it forward and trying to pull in as many kids as I can.” In t he v iew of Ay res, Princeton has the potential to develop into a hotbed for the sport. “If you look at any of the great wrestling areas in the country it didn’t just happen overnight,” said Ayres. “There was a community of people who said this should be important and they worked really hard at it. I think Princeton can be one of the best wrestling areas in the country.” —Bill Alden

Joseph M. Lynch Joseph M. Lynch, a longtime Princeton resident, died on February 3, 2018 at age 93 in his home at Morris Hall Meadows in Lawrenceville, N.J. after a long career as an attorney, law professor, and legal historian. Joe was born on Aug. 28, 1924 in Jersey City, N.J., the son of Joseph Lynch and Elizabeth Coughlin. He spent his childhood in Jersey City, where he attended the St. Nicholas School and St. Peter’s Preparatory School and spent his spare time reading, playing baseball, and going to movies. In 1942, he enrolled in St. Peter’s College in Jersey City, but early the following year enlisted in the United States

which he graduated in 1951. The following year Joe married Irene O’Neil, whom he had met while studying at Harvard. They were married for 62 years. Joe practiced law in Hackensack before moving in 1957 to Princeton, where he spent much of the remainder of his life. During his early years in Princeton, Joe was strongly influenced by his friendship with the Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain, professor emeritus at Princeton University, whom he met while attending daily mass. Maritain’s views of ethics and justice had a lasting impact on Joe’s conception of the role of law in society and government, which accelerated his decision to begin a career in teaching. In 1961 Joe joined the faculty of the Seton Hall University School of Law, where he taught civil procedure and constitutional law until his retirement in 1993. He wrote extensively on the 20th century New Jersey Supreme Court’s expansion of its power to adopt rules governing practice and procedure in state courts. He also examined the early development of federal-state relations, where his research focused on Congressional debates concerning the correct interpretation of various provisions of the U.S. Constitution. Published in 1999 as Negotiating The Constitution, with editorial assistance from his wife Irene, this research concluded that the Founding Fathers’ “original intent” often was to use d e l i b e r a te l y a m b i g u o u s language that aimed to advance the political interests of their home states while

still ensuring the adoption of constitutional provisions that were potentially divisive politically. Alexander Hamilton fared better in this analysis than did James Madison. In addition to his teaching and research, Joe also served as a charter trustee and counsel of the Stanley J. Seeger Hellenic Fund. In his role as trustee, he helped to organize the Stanley J. Seeger ’52 Program in Hellenic Studies at Princeton University and for many years participated in the Seeger Fund’s annual meetings, which included cultural and historical tours of the Greek countryside. Outside of work, Joe very much enjoyed travel (England, France, and Italy were particular favorites), music, opera, theater, good food, the company of good friends, and relaxing in the summer in northern Vermont. He was an avid fan of the New York Mets and watched from the stands in Shea Stadium as they beat the Boston Red Sox in Game 7 of the 1986 World Series. Joe was predeceased by his wife Irene and his brother John Lynch of Azusa, California. He is survived by his five children and their spouses: Anne Lynch and Peter Hadekel of Montreal; Peter Lynch of Franklin; Teresa Lynch of Blawenburg; Mark Ly nch of B er w y n, Pennsylvania; and Patricia Lynch and Trevor Dickie of Cambridge, Mass. He also leaves his grandchildren, Kathleen, Christine, and

Tashi Hadekel; Valentine and Rudyard Lynch ; and Nathaniel, Eliza, and Rachel Dickie; as well as numerous nieces and nephews in California, Ohio, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Visiting hours will be on Thursday, February 8, 2018 from 4-7 p.m. in the Kimble Funeral Home, 1 Hamilton Avenue, Princeton, NJ. A funeral mass will be celebrated on Friday, February 9, 2018

at 10:30 a.m. in St. Paul’s Church, 213 Nassau Street, Princeton with burial to follow in Princeton Cemetery.

Obituaries

Army. He was assigned to the Signal Corps in Sea Girt, N.J., where he was taught to operate the Army’s message encoding machine. However, the Army decided that Joe should be assigned to decipher German messages instead of encoding our own, and he was shipped off to England to serve in a Army detachment assisting the British in the Ultra project (also known as Enigma). Joe’s duty post outside London exposed him to successive stages of German aerial attacks: incendiary bombing, V-1 buzz bombs, and V-2 rockets. But the location also provided ready access to London’s varied cultural attractions: museums, concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, and theater in the West End or the Old Vic Theater. In the waning months of World War II Joe’s unit was posted to Southern France, awaiting orders for a transfer to the Philippines that never occurred. Exposure to European culture was a revelation for Joe. He often described his wartime experience as his real college education. Af ter the war, Joe returned to Jersey City and finished his undergraduate studies in English literature while working as a night reporter for The Jersey Journal. He graduated from St. Peter’s in 1948, and then — thanks to the G.I. Bill — attended Harvard Law School in Cambridge, Mass., from

As winter deepens, 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,” said 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, stems, 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, does 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. Call WOODWINDS (609) 924-3500 or email
