Celebrating Pi Day: Happy Birthday, Albert Einstein!

In more than 20 different events held last Saturday and also scheduled for today, Princeton is celebrating the 139th birthday of one of its most famous residents. Albert Einstein, who came here from Germany in 1933 and joined the Institute for Advanced Study, with which he was affiliated until his death in 1955, was born on March 14, 3.14, the numeric equivalent of Pi. The annual celebration, founded and organized for the past 10 years by Princeton Tour Company CEO Mimi Omiecinski, honors Pi, mathematics, science, famous Princeton geniuses, local merchants, and, of course, Albert Einstein, who lived at 33 Mercer Street. “Pi Day Princeton is a real treat for anyone who loves Pi, pie, and Einstein,“ said Omiecinski. “The town of Princeton is nuts for this quirky event and hopes the universe will come visit our town to celebrate Pi Day in Princeton.” Noting the “irrational number of events,” Omiecinski pointed out that, in addition to last Saturday’s activities, today, on Einstein’s actual birthday, there is a tour of Landau’s Albert Einstein Museum on Nassau Street; a fundraiser sponsored by the bent spoon in Palmer Square and Lillipie’s on Harrison Street; Pi Day pop up wedding/vow renewal ceremonies at Princeton Pi pizza shop on Nassau Street; and an interactive STEAM-inspired slime making workshop at the Paul Robeson Center for the Arts. The museum dedicated to Einstein, in the Landau fine woolens shop, is featuring Princeton Tour Company guides telling the life of Einstein, from 10-11:30 a.m., including stories of his years in Princeton. Landau will be selling commemorative T-shirts to benefit the Albert Einstein Museum in Ulm, Germany, the town of the scientist’s birth. From 3:14 p.m. to 6 p.m. Princeton Pi invites “genius couples … to an infinitely memorable wedding,” with heart-shaped pizzas and complimentary officiants on site “for irrationally in love pre-registered couples.” The Arts Council of Princeton’s slime-making workshop, 4-5 p.m., best for ages 7-15, will emphasize science, art, and math, with an exploration of “techniques to create the art of handmade slime.” Continued on Page 14

Work Session on Parking Issues Dominates Council Meeting The future of parking in Princeton took up a large portion of Princeton Council’s meeting on Monday, March 12. Julie Dixon of Dixon Resources Unlimited gave an overview of a recently completed study on how the town should approach ongoing problems associated with parking. Keeping up with technology and remaining transparent are key elements of the process, said Dixon, whose company has advised towns and cities all over the country. “We look for realistic implementations and solutions that will last,” she said at the beginning of her presentation. “There is a lot of technology out there, and we don’t want to put you into a closed system.” A visitor’s first and last impression of Princeton is through parking, Dixon said. “Parking really means customer service. You want to make sure it’s a positive experience.” She stressed that not all changes to parking — which involves meters, pay stations, garages, and more — should be made at once. Instead, they should be gradually implemented so as not to overwhelm citizens. Regarding the question of single space parking meters versus pay stations, “It’s not necessarily an all or none solution,” Dixon said. “You’re looking at a hybrid.”

What is key is that all meters or pay stations would take credit cards. Dixon also advocated increasing signage and developing “a clean aesthetic that blends in with the community but is also recognizable.” Mobile payment is a must, she said, not just for convenience but also for validation programs. This type of payment could also be integrated with public transit. Dixon suggested that using license plate recognition at pay stations is preferable

to displaying a ticket on the dashboard, or paying by the space. Before coming up with rate structures, “define what it is you’re trying to obtain,” Dixon said. “If it’s turnover, you don’t want a pay-to-stay model. It depends on the community.” Other topics she discussed included valet parking where a car is dropped off at one place but can be delivered to another, which can reduce congestion; getting citations out of the Continued on Page 14

Architects Present Preliminary Designs For New 5/6 School, PHS Renovation Architects from Fielding Nair International and Spiezle Architectural Group presented their preliminary designs for a 5/6 school and the transformation of the Princeton High School (PHS) building at a special meeting of the Princeton Board of Education at the Valley Road administrative building last night. The plans will continue to be adjusted based on feedback from the Board, staff, students, and the community, as Princeton Public Schools (PPS) prepares to submit its tentative design plans to the State Board of Education in April in preparation for a

facilities referendum on October 2. Cost estimates should be available soon, according to Board Facilities Committee Chair Dafna Kendal. “We are waiting for feedback from the community on the plans presented, and we are aiming to have cost estimates and tax impact available within the next few weeks,“ she said. Though the meeting took place after press time, PPS Communications Director Brenda Sewell was able to share some of the architects’ preliminary plans yesterday afternoon. Continued on Page 13

The Coalition for Peace Action (CFPA) and Princeton Families for Gun Sense (PFGS) are sponsoring rallies for gun reform today in solidarity with a walkout at Princeton High School and over 2,800 other schools around the country. The CFPA Princeton University Rally for Gun Reform at noon on the lawn in front of Frist Campus Center, the PFGS rally at 10 a.m. on Hinds Plaza, and other demonstrations are commemorating the one-month anniversary of the Parkland, Florida school shooting and demanding that lawmakers pass common-sense gun safety measures such as universal background checks, banning assault rifles, and keeping guns out of the

The newly-formed PFGS stated, “We hope to be a resource for gun reform action going forward as well as a platform for community members to voice their concerns with current laws.”

McCarter Campaign Raises More Than $10 Million

McCarter Theatre Center has announced the successful conclusion of its Campaign for McCarter, a multi-year fundraising effort that raised over $10 million for its endowment and increased annual fund support for general operations. Among other initiatives, the funding will support work of new and emerging playwrights, and introduce young people to the power of live performance. Under the leadership of Co-Chairs and

the campaign is the largest fundraising effort in the institution’s 88-year history. McCarter’s endowment funds include the McCarter LAB; the Presented Events Series; Audience Access Programs; Education and Engagement; and the Emerging Leaders Program. The campaign was bolstered by two challenge grants. A $500,000 challenge grant from Betty Wold Johnson was received in September and was instrumental in helping to close out the campaign. The campaign also received a $250,000 challenge grant in support of the Presented Events endowment. This endowment will be renamed as the William W. Lockwood Presented Series Fund, in

honor of McCarter’s long time special programming director. This fund was created to ensure future generations of McCarter patrons will benefit from the artists, events, and new ideas presented on McCarter’s stages. “This campaign has been critical to ensuring that McCarter remains a vital cultural institution for the next generation of theater lovers, an artistic home for emerging and legendary playwrights from all backgrounds, and a beacon of the very best in the performing arts in our community,” said Emily Mann, artistic director and resident playwright. Mann went on to state that “having a vibrant producing theater coupled with a world class roster of Presented Events is foundational to the extraordinary quality of civic life in this region.” Leslie Kuenne, president of the Board of Trustees, noted the importance of this campaign, saying “I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the campaign for making meaningful personal gifts to this institution. Thanks to such remarkable support and outpouring of generosity, McCarter will continue to thrive and serve Princeton and the surrounding community. I would also like to thank our patrons and the thousands of individuals who support McCarter with an annual contribution. The $1.5 million in donations we receive annually from our community is also a remarkable testament to the importance of McCarter in people’s lives.”

Dachau Survivor and Liberator Talk About Meeting After 67 Years

The first time Ernie Gross and Don Greenbaum crossed paths was on April 29, 1945. Gross, then 16, was standing in line to be exterminated at Dachau. The notorious concentration camp was where thousands of Jews were killed during World War II. Green-

baum, then 20, was a corporal in the United States Army, which had arrived to liberate the prisoners at the camp. It would be another 67 years before the two men, both of whom live in the Philadelphia area, discovered each other’s identities. Gross had read about Greenbaum in The Jewish Exponent newspaper, and reached out to him. Since then, the men have become friends and collaborators, telling their story at schools, community centers, and houses of worship. In 2015, they traveled together to Germany to join other survivors and U.S. Army liberators in a ceremony commemorating the 70th anniversary of the camp’s liberation. Their next presentation is Sunday, March 18, at Adath Israel Congregation in Lawrence. “The Survivor and the Liberator” is part of The Eleventh Annual SacksWilner Holocaust Education

TOPICS Of the Town Program. “Survivors of the Holocaust are getting older and there are fewer and fewer of them around,” said Adath Israel Rabbi Benjamin Adler, who arranged to present Gross and Greenbaum through the Holocaust Awareness Museum and Education Center of Philadelphia. “We want to make sure their stories continue to be told.” Adler heard of the two men after they spoke at his son’s school in Philadelphia. “He told me it was very compelling,” he said. “I reached out to the Holocaust Museum and Education Center and asked if we could bring them here. I thought it would be very meaningful for our annual program.” Gross, who lives in Philadelphia and is retired from the food business, is 89. He is the only one left in his family of nine. Five died in the Holocaust. The family was deported to the Auschwitz camp in 1944. Gross avoided the gas chambers in the initial selection process by following a tip to lie about his age and say he was 17 instead of 15, according to an article in The Jewish Exponent. He was sent to different work camps, and nearly starved to death be-

fore being forced to march, barefoot, to Dachau. Greenbaum’s unit approached, as Nazi officers fled, while Gross and others who survived the march were about to be taken to the crematorium. Gross and Greenbaum have taken their story to North Carolina, Florida, and several locations in the Philadelphia area. “Don starts, then he introduces me,” Gross said. “I go through my life. I speak for about 40 minutes, then we open it up for questions.” Finding Greenbaum has added a new layer of meaning to Gross’s life. “I k new a n A m er ic a n soldier had liberated me. I

Celebrate Passover

For the first time in its 50year history, HDR’s Princeton architecture studio has received the American Institute of Architects (AIA) New Jersey 2017 Firm of the Year award. “This is a significant honor, and I want to congratulate and thank ever yone who has made it possible for us to be recognized in this way,” said Managing Principal Eric Jaffe. “All of us are very proud of this accomplishment.” With about 200 employees, the architecture studio’s services include architecture, engineering, interior design, lighting design, planning, sustainable design and marketing. The office also has industrial engineers, social scientists, clinicians and data analysts. Client Peter J. DiRocco, director, facilities & engineering at Bristol-Myers Squibb, credits the Princeton team for “transforming not only (our) buildings and property, but our way of doing business. The process your team established and followed allowed our many stakeholders to feel like they were ultimately part of the overall solution.” According to George Fellner, AIA, AIA Connecticut president and jury member, all of the applicants demonstrated a high degree of major architectural accomplishments and professional, technical and communitybased attributes. “We congratulate the selected award recipients for their distinguished excellence involving their professionalism, extensive backgrounds and diverse involvement, as well as their clear commitments to the community,” he said. Other recent AIA New Jersey awards for the Princeton architecture studio include two 2017 Design Awards for Concord Cancer Hospital and Proton Therapy Center and Kolos Data Center. Both received the Merit Award, Unbuilt.

That was before damage from a vicious storm flooded the premises, causing it to close for good in June, 2017. “I miss those mornings. I really do,� Fritschie said during a recent telephone interview. Now living in Boulder, Colorado and running the online Tea Leaf Market with her two children, she has hopes of returning to Princeton at some point to open another, smaller cafe. “I’ve been looking,� she said. “I would love to be right on Nassau Street. I cannot tell you how much I miss being in Princeton.�

It was in August, 2011 that Fritschie and Michael Carnevale opened Infini-T, in a lower level space at the site of the former Underground Cafe (now Lan Ramen). Serious tea drinkers and admirers of Fritschie’s freshbaked, vegan treats began patronizing the comfortable eatery, which also sold exotic spices and encouraged people to linger on the sofas and floor pillows. Readings and other public events were held at the popular space. But after a rain storm in July, 2016, the cafe was inundated and could not recover. “We had no flood insurance and the landlord didn’t repair the motors to get the sewage water out,� said Fritschie. “We finally had to close for good. It was really sad. I felt very lost at first. I had such lovely people working for me, and they didn’t want to leave. It was a mainstay of the community, and I didn’t know how

to fill in all those pieces. But you have to take lemons and make lemonade, which is what I have done.� Fritschie traveled to Rwanda and Uganda, where her daughter was working. In Uganda, she did volunteer work with families and children in a school at a tea estate. She toured factories, schools, and houses. “I never imagined seeing such a beautiful tea estate in Rwanda that rivaled those I do fair trade with in India,� she said. Continuing her education, Fritschie has been taking courses on culture and nutrition, and the spices and blending of tea. She is currently training under a Chinese herbalist. The online Tea Leaf Market (tealeafmarket.com), which Fritschie started in 2015, is now going full steam. “We had slowly started it but didn’t focus on it, because

Infini-T was taking too much of my time and my daughter was still in school,� Fritschie said. “But we always had a small client base going to it for ethical tea, which, by the way, tastes great.� When she returned from her travels abroad, Fritschie and her children decided to focus on the online operation. “We wanted to keep it going, and we didn’t have the money for bricks and mortar,� she said. “We realized we could reach a much broader market by doing the online business, putting a percentage of the profits into community efforts. Right now, we’re supporting two children in Uganda to go to school.� Te a L e af Market s up ports fair wages, housing, and schools. All of the tea Fritschie and her family sell is labeled from ethical tea estates, a standard comparable to fair trade, she said. The company carries pure teas such as Darjeeling and Golden Tips, as well as blended teas. Packaging is done by Fritschie in Colorado. She mixes most of the blended teas herself, and also works with another tea blender from India. Tea Leaf Market offers a tea club for people who want to try different blends. “A lot of people who are not pure tea drinkers might not know what they want,� Fritschie said. “For under $15 a month, they can get up to 40-50 cups and see what they like.� Before opening Infini-T, Fritschie and Carnevale visited tea plantations in Darjeeling and Assam, observing that the plantations took good care of their employees. Fritschie is committed to the same idea with the online business. “If you have an ethical tea company that is not going to have child labor, and lets girls go to school instead of picking teas in the fields, with real housing instead of one-room huts — then that’s what we’re supporting,� she said. —Anne Levin

The start of Tanya Vail’s teaching career was less than auspicious. She was working as a graphic designer at a publishing house in Nashville, Tennessee, when she saw an ad for someone to teach freshman graphic design classes at a local design college. “I started out teaching one class,� she recalled. “My first class was terrible — a complete crash and burn. I had never done it from that point of view before. I had been in the student’s seat but not the one lecturing from the front. It was so bad. If I could have, I would have walked out.� She continued, “When I got home that night, I said, ‘Well t hat can’t happen again. That was painful for all involved. This is torturous for everyone.’ I said to myself, ‘How can I make this better?’ I asked myself, ‘If I was sitting in that seat again, what would I want someone to tell me?’ And the answer was that I would want them to be honest with me and tell me all the things they don’t tell you in design school.� Vail decided to tell them about being on the job under pressure with a deadline looming, about adaptability and resiliency, “and not to panic in that moment, but to see it as a moment of opportunity. Every challenge is a moment of opportunity. You can let it bury you, or you can own it. That’s your choice to make.�

That experience in Tennessee two decades ago was a turning point. “That’s where it all clicked,� she said. “I went into the next class, and you would have thought that I was a completely different person. It paid off because I was asked to teach a second class and then a third and a fourth class, and they were asking for more and more of my time. So I had to make a decision if I wanted to keep my full-time graphic design job too.� It was at that point that Vail realized her true calling, as she saw she was getting greater fulfillment from teaching than from her graphic design production job. “I fell into teaching backwards,� she said. “I didn’t mean to do it, but once I got there it just felt like what I was supposed to be doing.� She des cr ibed com ing home from teaching those first classes. “It was so inspiring — the students’ energy, their ideas, and their different perspectives, helping me to see the world in ways that I never could have if they hadn’t given me their points of view. So it seemed crazy, but I figured the universe had pointed me in this direction for some reason.� At Chapin Now, t wo decades later, in her fifth year at the Chapin School teaching fifth through eighth grades, Vail has no doubt that she made the right decision. “I don’t see myself ever wanting to

be out of the classroom because that’s where the life force is, where the inspiration is. I cannot tell you how many times I have had the feeling that my students teach me much more than I will ever be able to teach them.� She descr ibed her ar t classroom, where process is more important than product, where the students and their interests take center stage, and where an observer will see what looks more like a working art studio than a traditional classroom. “Maybe because I didn’t plan to become a teacher, I treat it as a working studio,� she said. “Everyone knows where the supplies are. They can always come here and work. It’s not me bringing them into my perspective in the art world. It’s helping them to establish their own perspectives, which is the most important thing. No one has all the answers. That’s what we work together to find. So we are on the same level. That’s when the best ideas happen, and it really encourages them to push themselves and challenge themselves to take a risk and try something new.� Emphasizing the importance of the creative process — “not all that different from the scientific process,� she continued, “I love to have beautiful finished projects, but what I teach about is really the process. We come up with a theory to solve a design problem and then we

PIED PIPER OF THE ART ROOM: Tanya Vail collaborates with her students in a working studio environment in the Chapin School art room. About 20 years ago she decided to give up her job as a graphic designer to become a full-time teacher, and has never looked back. “I figured that the universe had pointed me in this direction for some reason,� she said. (Photo Courtesy of Tanya Vail) take a risk and try it out. If it works, great. If it doesn’t work, we’ve learned what’s not going to work, and we figure out what we’re going to do next. “It’s a metaphor for life. Not everything is going to go according to your plans, so the resilience you show when things don’t go according to plan and how you pivot and respond to that and adjust, that’s going to be important for your entire life.� Olivia Schroeder-Positano, a recent Chapin graduate now in high school, observed, “Ms. Vail is the pied piper of Chapin. Her effervescent energy inspires students in and out of the art room. Some of her greatest assets are her ability to advocate for, empower, and inspire her students. She has left her imprint on many facets of my life, and to this day I think of her fondly every time I reach for my sketchbook.� Caroline Lee, parent of a seventh grade student, reflected on the vital role of Vail and her art class at Chapin. “One of the most important gifts a teacher can provide to a student is a sense of belonging,� she said. “In Ms. Vail’s art class, she has cultivated a community of young artists who feel free to take creative risks, to receive constructive feedback, and to demonstrate their learning in ways that affirm who they are as individuals. “My son described his art class as one where he can be his best self. He feels calm in a space where his imagination can flourish, and he feels genuinely seen and heard. Because of Ms. Vail, my son is self-motivated to engage in art outside of the classroom. Ms. Vail holds her students to the high expectations of their craft and provides the emotional support needed by them to grow as artists.� She continued, “Most of all, Ms. Vail takes the time to get to know her students, and those relationships make all the difference in cultivating their sense of self-efficacy. Chapin is a stronger community because of Ms. Vail. Her impact on students is immeasurable.� Vail emphasized the positive environment for art and education at Chapin.

individual’s needs, she observed, â€?I’ve never worked in a place where the faculty is so dedicated to what is good for the students. “This is a special place. It gives students the kind of freedom they need, setting the bar high and saying, ‘This is what we expect. As long as you do this, we can work together. We’re going to trust you.’ I see a level of maturity in kids that graduate from here that I’ve never seen in any other middle school.â€? Her Journey Vail grew up in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Her father melted down precious metals, and her mother was a hairstylist. “My family was surprisingly encouraging,â€? said Vail, who loved art from an early age. “I would have expected my parents to try to push me to be a doctor or a lawyer, but they saw how committed I was to art and how I would spend hours a day just drawing, to the point where I would forget to eat.â€? She credits them w ith passing on to her their artistic genes. “I always thought of them as having a creative bent,â€? she said. “My father has always been a builder, a woodworker. If we needed a new table in the house he’d build it, then decoratively paint it. I’ve always said to my mother, ‘What you do is art, and I don’t know how you do that because your subjects always have an opinion on how that turns out. I’d find that intimidating.’â€? Or iginally major ing in illustration and progressing to graphic design, Vail graduated from SUNY Binghamton and moved with her fiancĂŠ, soon-to-be-husband, to Nashville, where she went right to work as a professional illustrator and graphic designer. After launching her teaching career at O’More College of Design, she decided to apply to graduate schools, and when she was accepted at NYU she and her husband were ready to move again. “Unfor tunately for me, my first day of classes was September 10, 2001,â€? she said. Though she was staying w it h her parents in Bridgeport, she described the experience as “very surreal,â€? as classes in New York resumed six days after the 9/11 attacks. “A lot of students left.

They didn’t want to stay, but I thought, ‘I have come so far and I never thought I’d be able to make it this far.’ I come from a blue collar working class family, so the opportunity to go to NYU was important, and I thought, ‘I guess I’m going to have to tough it out. You’re not scaring me off from this.’� After getting her master’s degree in art education and giving birth to a daughter just two months later, Vail and her new family settled near Bordentown, where she stayed home for about five years to care for her daughter. She star ted subst it ute teaching in her home dist r ict, event ually f inding herself in demand almost full-time. “It was my way of getting my feet wet again. I wanted to teach at every level. I wanted to come back to the classroom. There’s nothing like it. That was my goal the whole time.� When her daughter was in school, and an ad appeared for an art teaching job at Chapin, Vail’s future course was set. “Through the frame of art, Tanya has taken a genuinely deep interest in the inner lives of Chapin students, which has left a permanent and palpable impression on our school,� said Chapin English teacher and Dean of Student Life Shawn Berger. “She goes above and beyond for kids and colleagues alike.� Vail explained, “Whatever your vice is, whatever it is you get most pleasure out of, for a teacher who enjoys teaching, it’s the excitement of teaching and learning at the same time.� —Donald Gilpin

To the Editor: Many thanks to the amazing PSE&G crew on rosedale road, Lawrence Township. Today we needed to get our elderly mother out of her all-electric home, since there was no power following the storm on March 7, 2018. The volume of snow, closed roads, felled trees and power lines made it impossible to reach her. Hearing our dilemma, a group of PSE&G workers immediately offered their assistance. Within 20 minutes they guided our car into her driveway, careful to avoid the downed power lines, helped to shovel a path to her home, escorted her to our car, and made sure we navigated safely back onto the road. All in a days work was their attitude, glad we could help. We are sure there are hundreds of stories like this one. We wanted to share this one with you. SuSAN ANd MArk GOrdON Sergeant Street

High School For PHS, Sewell noted, “The plan is to reclaim space internally through renovations to existing space and by creating new space in areas that are currently courtyards,” with the total square footage going from 320,000 to 374,000 and capacity increasing from 1,800 to 2,100 students. Seeking maximum impact on learning and making sure to “align the spaces with our educational goals,” the proposed designs create a “school heart,” a “collaborative hub,” and “flexible learning zones.” The PHS entryway will be redesigned, leading to a courtyard that will be converted into the heart of the school, “a bright and welcoming multi-story space where students can gather to s t udy independent ly, work collaboratively, and attend presentations, lectures, and other events,” Sewell reported. “Already, teachers have talked about how this space, and spaces in the collaborative hub, would allow them to gather multiple classes together for more informal lectures and presentations.” T he high school’s t wo other cour tyards will be converted into a collaboration hub with a media commons at its center. There will be spaces for collaboration on each side of the media commons, and the second floor of the collaboration hub will include a tech hub where students will be able to work on such projects as robotics, 3-D printers, and engineering initiatives. The f lexible learning zones, comprised of classroom spaces of different sizes, seminar rooms, teacher offices, collaboration spaces, and shared common spaces, will, according to Sewell, “better utilize space than the traditional hallways and classrooms that we have today.” In addition, at PHS, a second story will be added to the workout facility with a wrestling space and a space that can be used for dance, yoga, and other purposes. The second stor y of the learning commons will also be renovated to make the current balcony space and the rooms behind it accessible and usable for student learning. 5/6 School L ocated on the Valley Road property with the main entrance off of Valley Road, the building will be approximately 85,000 square feet with a capacity of more than 650 students. Focusing on nurturing students during their pre-adolescent years, the building, according to Sewell, will feature “a bright, open space that will function as the physical heart of the building.” It will be an area which teachers can use for a variety of activities and where students can work in small groups or independently. This area will be connected to a space for student dining, which will lead to a covered outdoor patio where students can eat and teachers can bring classes. Flexible learning zones on the first floor will include classrooms of different sizes, teacher offices, collabo-

NEW 5/6 SCHOOL: Architects last night presented their preliminary plans for a new 5/6 school on the Valley Road property. The building would be approximately 85,000 square feet and hold more than 650 fifth and sixth graders, designed to “better support how our students learn and the way our teachers want to teach,” said PPS Communications Director Brenda Sewell.

On the second floor will be additional flexible learning zones, art and music classrooms, the school library, and multi-use spaces. Sewell added that in addition to playground and garden spaces, outdoor spaces still being considered include an amphitheater and naturalist spaces. “We want the 5/6 school to be a sustainable ‘living building,’” she said, “which is not more costly to build, but brings significant energy savings and creates additional learning opportunities for students. This might include solar heat, rainwater collection, solar panels, and a green roof.” Last night’s presentation focused on PHS and the new 5/6 school, but final referendum plans will also include enhancements to athletic fields, as well as security and HVAC upgrades at all schools. “The design of the 5/6 school and the renovations at PHS will better support how our students learn and the way our teachers want to teach,” Sewell concluded. Expressing her approval of the planning and design work so far, Kendal noted, “I think our approach and process has been very comprehensive and inclusive. To ensure we are meeting the needs of all stakeholders, we have set up separate design teams focused on the renovations to the high school, the design of the 5/6 school, at h let ics, sustainabilit y, community services, and incorporating the history of the Valley Road school into the 5/6 school design.” —Donald Gilpin

Old Barracks Museum Relives Trenton in Winter of 1777-78 On Saturday, March 17 and Sunday, March 18, from

10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Old Barracks Museum will relive the winter of 1777-78, when Washington’s troops were experiencing the harsh winter at Valley Forge. On hand will be 18th century carpenters, tailors, seamstresses, shoemakers, leather workers, hatters, gunsmiths, laundresses, soapmakers, clerks, and members of the local militia and Pulaski’s Legion. Old Barracks Historical Interpreters will offer introductions to the Winter of 1778 at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., and 3 p.m., and the artisans and tradesmen will be demonstrating all day, both days. In the harsh winter of 177778, George Washington’s Army suffered with limited supplies at Valley Forge, Pa. During that same winter, the residents of Trenton were almost overwhelmed with satisfying the Army’s manufacturing and supply demands while also trying to perform their obligations to serve in the militia. This bit of history about New Jersey’s capital city was not well known, until the publishing of Crossroads of the Revolution: Trenton 1774-1783, written by local historian Larry Kidder. The book portrays Trenton as a center of activity that winter. Gen. Casimir Pulaski had come to town making many demands for leather goods and supplies for all the cavalry units under his command. The Pennsylvania State Navy had taken refuge in town, with supply demands for weapons, clothing, shoes, boots, and more to be manufactured by the many artisans in the community. This program is included with our regular admission fee: $8-Adult, $6-Student/ Senior, Free-Children under 6, Active U.S. Military, Members. The Old Barracks Museum is located at 101 Barrack Street, Trenton. Visit www.barracks.org.

Former U.S. Senator Bill Bradley has donated his papers to Princeton University Library. The extensive collection documents the remarkable career of the former congressman, professional basketball player, and 1965 Princeton alumnus. The papers, held in more than 1,000 boxes, primarily chronicle his time in Congress, where he served as U.S. Senator from New Jersey from 1979 to 1997. They include copies of his speeches and testimony, press releases, his schedules and appointments, and awards he received while in office. The collection also includes files from his leg-

He was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1982.

S

Historic homes dot the roadway, flanked by a golf course, several small churches, and The Lawrenceville School. Charming downtown businesses include Chamber’s Walk, Fedora CafÊ, The Gingered Peach, Purple Cow Ice Cream, Wildflour BakeryCafÊ, and TJ’s Pizzeria and Pasta. Planning on visiting during the weekend? Begin your day with a piping hot bagel and coffee from Maidenhead Bagel Co. W hen The Lawrenceville School is in session, Maidenhead is filled with students, along with Lawrenceville faculty and their families, ordering hearty bagel sandwiches. Maidenhead seems to attract a very local crowd of regulars, which can give visitors a good feel for the small-town flavor and personality that Lawrenceville encompasses. Open land space is bountiful in Lawrence, making for great bird watching, mountain biking, and hiking at Mercer Meadows Pole Farm and along the LawrenceHopewell Trail. Families can also dive into the rural life at either Cherry Grove Farm or Terhune Orchards. Cherr y Grove Farm is a fully-operational dairy farm known for its delicious, locally-made cheeses. Cheesemaking classes are offered

Items like their Tomato and White Sultana Chutney and Brinjal Caponata incorporate exotic flavors into bite-sized, flavorful additions to any meal or recipe. Le Bon Magot products are also available for purchase online at www.lebonmagot.com and at other select retailers throughout New Jersey and the United States.

BOOK REVIEW

Side by Side on Einstein’s Birthday: Hamlet, Relativity, and the Bryn Mawr-Wellesley Book Sale Imagination is more important than knowledge — it encircles the whole world. —Albert Einstein (1879-1955) There are more things on heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. —Hamlet (1601--∞) f you were to measure their relative value in light of Einstein’s statement, Shakespeare would have the advantage because the works of his imagination can be apprehended while Einstein’s require a knowledge of mathematics and physics most people don’t possess. Unfair and illogical though it may be, the wonders of Shakespeare’s language supercede the relatively impenetrable wonders of Einstein’s theory. Or you could say that if an Einstein had not existed, a Shakespeare might have invented one, given that a relative universal appreciation of both depends on the medium in which Shakespeare is the ultimate master. Meanwhile, scientists might suggest that if a value defined as Shakespeare had not existed, an entity known as Einstein might have imagined a formula for the mysterious convergence of matter and inertia that produced Hamlet and Portia and Falstaff and all the other enduring formations of word-matter comprising Shakespeare’s universe. In Einstein’s Princeton In the realm of 21st-century Princeton life, Wednesday is Einstein’s birthday and Friday is the annual Bryn Mawr-Wellesley Book Sale, where there are more books “in heaven and earth, book lovers, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.� This phenomenon, like the Princeton Public Library’s annual sale, is a donation-driven equivalent of the Big Bang wherein volumes covering virtually every facet of civilization descend on the venue shoppers will be exploring March 16-20 at the Princeton Day School. Although I’m writing in advance of this year’s sale, the one unassailable physical reality you can count on is that volumes by and about Einstein and Shakespeare will be there. For the sake of this necessarily hypothetical visit, imagine that I’ve found an advance proof of Einstein’s Travel Diaries (free, since it’s marked “not for resale�), and The Formative Years of Relativity: The History and Meaning of Einstein’s Princeton Lectures, both books from Princeton University Press, which last year also published Reiner Stach’s Kafka: The Early Years in the acclaimed translation of Princeton resident Shelley Frisch. In addition to this homegrown assortment, let’s say I’m reading Hamlet in Volume 7 of the 1836 Hilliard, Gray, and Company edition of Shakespeare’s Works. In Prague and Princeton Shakespeare’s kings and clowns have nothing on Princeton’s Einstein, the “king of infinite space� who will be viewed in less exalted terms on Pi Day, whether shambling in slippers or sticking his tongue out or drifting in his dinghy on Lake Carnegie. He’s always with us, the town’s patron saint and its adorable mascot. Like it or not, this is the Einstein

I

Princeton holds dear 63 years after his death in the hospital that once stood on Witherspoon Street. A preview of Princeton’s Einstein can be found in Kafka: The Early Years. Having arrived in Prague in the spring of 1911 with an appointment as full professor in the physics institute at the German university, he is “utterly indifferent to the standards of professorial dignity,â€? showing up for lectures wearing a sweater and coming to a formal reception in his honor wearing a blue shirt, leading the concierge to think “he was the electrician they had been expecting.â€? Again, the Princeton equation: what we value about Einstein’s humanity, dressing like a workman, without airs, is relative to the magnitude of his reputation, a foil for his genius. Prague’s Einstein is soon prey to Kafkaesque paranoia, finding the citizens “alienâ€? to him, “not people with natural sentimentsâ€? but “unfeeling ‌ w ithout any kind of goodwill toward their fellow men ‌. Something akin to personality is unusual here.â€? He sounds all the more like K. in The Castle after finding “that he would have to apply to the highest political authority — the governor of Bohemia himself — to cover the cleaning costs for his institute.â€? Kafka came to the lecture Einstein gave on May 24 on the heels of a talk by Rudolph Steiner that left him thinking that “Theosophy is nothing but a surrogate for literature.â€? After attending Steiner’s lecture on “The Hidden Depths of Spiritual Life,â€? Einstein seems to consider theosophy a surrogate for nothing, least of all science, calling Steiner’s notion of extrasensory experience “complete rubbish ‌. Maybe I don’t need my eyes and ears to experience something, but surely I have to use one sense or another.â€? Einstein and Hamlet Reading Hamlet by the light of a battery-operated lantern during last week’s power outage, I kept noticing lines and passages that might have attracted Einstein’s interest. Again and again, Elsinore’s prince gives all his senses to the challenge of “thoughts beyond the reaches of our soulsâ€? and of “what dreams may comeâ€? after death. The cosmic note is sounded when the ghost of his father declares that his tale and the mission it portends will make “thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres.â€? Einstein might also have related to the terms of Hamlet’s soaring vision of “this goodly frame, the earthâ€? and “this most excellent canopy, the air, ‌ this brave o’erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire.â€? I’m taking my cue from Einstein’s May 1921 Princeton lecture, where, after stat-

ing that “the theory of relativity is intimately connected with the theory of space and timeâ€? and that the “object of all science, whether natural science or psychology, is to co-ordinate our experiences,â€? he goes on to say that by “the aid of language, different individuals can, to a certain extent, compare their experiences.â€? Such a comparison relative to Hamlet can be made by way of the intimate daily jottings in the Travel Diaries from Einstein’s voyage to the Far East, Palestine, and Spain in 1922-1923. In MTV parlance, this is Einstein “unplugged.â€? At times, the stream of consciousness element suggests Leopold Bloom in Ulysses: “Roasted lobsters. Poor creatures ‌ Decent filth everywhere ‌ Unwell from bad grub ‌ Trees wonderful: people banal ‌ Futile attempt to buy pipe tobacco ‌ Visits by Berliners and burial alive ‌ Radiant sunshine. Sense of liberation ‌ great indignation by leftat-home wife ‌ Hilarious pilgrimages with a big lantern to the outhouse.â€? His favorite metaphors for social fatigue are relative to “dead tired,â€? as in “burial alive or “I was dead and my corpse rode back to Moji where it was dragged to a children’s Christmas and had to play violin for the children.â€? Side by Side Read alongside Hamlet, the diaries offer some intriguing “co-ordinateâ€? interplay. For instance these entries in Einstein’s shipboard diary from October 1922, a year and a half after his Princeton lectures on relativity. He’s headed east on a Japanese ship. “9th Oct. ‌. The sun revitalizes me and removes the gulf between ‘ego’ and ‘id.’ I began reading Kretschmer’s On Physique and Character. Wonderful description of temperaments and their physical habitus. I can thus categorize many of my fellow beings but not myself, because I’m a hopeless hybrid. Yesterday I perused Bergson’s book on relativity and time. Strange that time alone is problematic to him but not space.â€? Hamlet: after referring to “all forms, modes, shows of griefâ€? that a man “might playâ€?: “I have that within which passeth show.â€? Then: “The time is out of jointâ€? and later: “O God, I could be bounded in a nut shell and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams.â€? Einstein: “11th Oct: ‌. Sea somewhat restless. I now think that seasickness is based on dizziness caused by lack of orientation, not directly on the apparent changes in gravity, according to direction and magnitude.â€? Hamlet: “I am but mad north-northwest. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.â€?

Einstein: “13th Oct. Midday. 3 p.m., Port Said ‌. In the harbor, a swarm of rowing boats with screaming and gesticulating Levantines of every shade, who lunge at our ship. As if spewed from hell.â€? Ophelia (after her “terrifyingâ€? encounter with Hamlet): “As if he had been loosed out of hell/To speak of horrors, — he comes before me.â€? Einstein (from The Formative Years of Relativity): “A turning point was the confirmation of the bending of light in a gravitational field, which, as predicted, was observed during a solar eclipse in 1919.â€? Ophelia (after the same encounter): “He seem’d to find his way without his eyes;/ For out o’ doors he went without their helps,/And, to the last, bended their light on me.â€? Shakespeare plays on the pompous absurdities of Polonius in a speech to Claudius and Gertrude that becomes like relativity gone wild: “What majesty should be, what duty is,/Why day is day, night night, and time is time, /Were nothing but to waste night, day and time.â€? After Gertrude asks for “More matter with less artâ€?: “Madam, I swear I use no art at all./ That he is mad, ‘tis true: ‘tis true ‘tis pity;/ And pity ‘tis ‘tis true: a foolish figure;/ But farewell it, for I will use no art./Mad let us grant him, then: and now remains/ That we find out the cause of this effect,/ Or rather say, the cause of this defect,/For this effect defective comes by cause.â€? Found at Bryn Mawr It’s been years since I took my numbered place in line on the opening day of the Bryn Mawr book sale, back before Wellesley became a co-host. Of all the books I found there over the years, one of the few I still own and frequently consult is the paperback edition of Harold Bloom’s Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human, where the longest chapter is devoted to Hamlet, whose “infinite reverberations,â€? in Bloom’s words, are matched by “no other single character in the plays.â€? he same could be said for Shakespeare at Bryn Mawr. Even though the setting up process had only just begun on Monday afternoon, Shakespeare already filled an entire table and was overflowing on to his neighbor in Drama. The only books on Princeton’s most famous resident I saw (you can be sure there will be many more) were recent ones like Einstein in Berlin and Walter Isaacson’s biography. Meanwhile the Shakespeare table groaned under the weight of heavy scholarly artillery that included the massive one-volume Arden Shakespeare, the Harvard Concordance, a 2 volume Lexicon and Quotation Dictionary, and numerous incarnations of the Works, including the 30-volume-plus 1901 Booklover’s Edition.

Robert Wuthnow and David Miller will be at Labyrinth Books discussing Wuthnow’s new book, The Left Behind: Decline and Rage in Rural America (Princeton University Press $24.95) on Thursday, March 15 at 6 p.m. A s t ar re d re v ie w i n Kirkus comments: “Writing with empathy … the author reflects on the factors shaping rural life — from the importance of faith to the stability and familiarity of life in town to the importance of ritual events (barn dances, etc.), stories, and symbols — as well as pressing problems (brain drain, teen pregnancy, drugs, lack of good jobs) and concerns over moral decline (abortion and homosexuality). Wuthnow finds nuances: the isolation-ending benefits of the internet, Walmar t, and 24/7 cable news have made r ural residents more aware that the world ‘was changing and leaving them behind.’ His interviews are consistently revealing …. A superb, authoritative sociology book.”

According to Publishers Weekly, “Books on climate change are a dime a dozen now, but few, if any, truly reckon with the potential scale of the disasters that await. Dawson reveals the i nade q uacie s of cu r rent plans to deal with the problems that cities around the world will face. Forget such buzzwords as ‘green cities,’ ‘resilience,’ and ‘sustainable development’ — the age of ‘disaster communism’ is here.” Ashley Dawson is a professor of English at the City University of New York and the author of Extinction: A Radical History.

“Transcendence,” a collection of work created between 2007-2017 by Kata Mejía, is now on exhibit in the Main Galler y at Ar t works, 19 Everett Alley in Trenton. It includes paintings, photographs, and performance art. After the death of her youngest brother, who was kidnapped and murdered by Colombia’s Farc terrorist guerrilla in 2006, Mejía started a series of performance art installations that explored life, death, and sorrow. Mejía used her work as a cathartic mechanism to help her deal with pain while simultaneously addressing violence, kidnapping, and human rights issues. In her paintings, paint strokes are layered to create abstract images suggesting physical transition and spiritual transcendence. Similar to the way places and images blend in dreams, for Mejía painting is meditative. Transcendence refers to a common thread in Kata Mejía’s work in which spiritual transcendence is explored ritually through various symbolic elements. Mejía earned her MFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2004, and her BFA from Universidad Nacional de Colombia in Medellín. She has been awarded several grants and scholarships, including a

2009 Fellowship from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship in 2004, the Trustee Scholarship from The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, a C o l o m b i a n G ove r n m e n t Scholarship for Graduate Studies abroad, and a Graduate Studies Scholarship from Universidad Nacional de Colombia in 2002. Mejía has shown her work in Colombia, the U.S., Chile, and Japan. For more information, visit the website at www.artworkstrenton.org.

The Arts Council of Princeton (ACP) presents “Earth, Fire, Water, Ice, Debris: Five Artists Comment on the Environment,” an exhibition of work dedicated to artists using their powerful visual skills to bring awareness to environmental issues in the world. Five artists, Helena Bienstock, Diane Burko, Anita Glesta, Susan Hockaday, and Martha Vaughn, use unexpected mediums to address climate change, global warming, infrastructure, and additional subjects related to environmental disturbance and destruction. The exhibit, curated by Judith K. Brodsky, will be on view in the Arts Council of Princeton’s Taplin Gallery from March 17 through May 5, with an artists’ talk on Saturday, March 17 from 5 to 6 p.m., immediately followed by an opening reception from 6 to 8 p.m. “In this age of images, artists are using their powerful visual skills to make us aware of the issues in the world around us as well as the beauty,” says Brodsky, “These five artists, each in their own way, have turned their attention to the environment, in some cases using unexpected mediums. Who would think of using clay to mourn the disappearing coral reefs or video to immerse us in a vision of rising sea water?” Helena Bienstock has been working with clay since the early 1970s, and has had a long teaching career both in Princeton and New York City. She has been active in helping to sustain cultural organizations in New York State and New Jersey, such as the Arts Council of Princeton itself. In appreciation, the clay studio in the Arts Council building is named the Helena Bienstock Clay Studio. Her passion for the environment infuses all her work, bringing together art and social consciousness. Martha Vaughn has thousands of photographs archived on her computer. In 2014, a book of Vaughn’s photographs, Of Time and Place, was published. Her work is included in the collections of the New Jersey State Museum and Princeton University, among other public institutions and in many private collections. Diane Burko carries on the landscape tradition of the 19th century, but gives it a 21st-century perspective. Burko has always painted the extreme landscape, including the world’s largest ice fields — Greenland, Antarctica (twice), Argentina’s Patagonia, Alaska, and the Northern Atlantic just below the Arctic Circle. In the last few years, her works have been shown in more than 100 exhibitions throughout the country in such venues as the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C., as well as art museums and galleries. Anita Glesta works in sculpture, video, and installation to create settings that engage people with the space around

them physically and metaphorically. Her video installation, Watershed, included in this exhibition, is a public art project that has been installed previously during the New Museum Ideas City Festival in New York City, and on the surface of the National Theater in London facing the Thames. It also was seen in 2017 in Red Hook, Brooklyn, as an immersive video on the streets of the community to commemorate the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Sandy. For over 15 years, Susan Hockaday has addressed nature and its decline through the forces of climate change. She has worked in several mediums, including etching, handmade paper, collage construction, photography, and drawing. “It takes a special kind of artist to transform melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and disappearing coral reefs into stunning visuals that bring both beauty and awareness to our environmental issues,” says ACP Artistic Director Maria Evans. The Arts Council of Princeton is at 102 Witherspoon Street, Princeton. For more information, visit artscouncilofprinceton.org or call (609) 924-8777.

Princeton University Orchestra Presents 2018 Concerto Competition Winners

A

lthough Princeton University Orchestra Music Director Michael Pratt claimed the four pieces performed by the orchestra this past weekend were from four different worlds, there actually were close links among them which became apparent as the concert progressed. In a hefty program of 19th and 20th-century symphonic works, the University Orchestra featured three of its most recent concerto competition winners, all of whom demonstrated talent and stage presence way beyond their years. The first two works performed on Friday night’s concert at Richardson Auditorium (the performance was repeated Saturday night) were linked by their autobiographical nature and literary roots. Twentiethcentury American composer Samuel Barber based his 1947 Knoxville: Summer of 1915 on a prose poem by the then-unknown American journalist James Agee. Scored for soprano, strings, harps, and a handful of winds and brass, Knoxville captured in words and music small-town America in an era when the rest of the world was at war. Barber, from the small town himself of West Chester, Pennsylvania, was no doubt drawn to the potential of Agee’s text to musically convey a simpler time on the verge of cataclysm. Soprano Solène Le Van, a Princeton University senior, sang Agee’s prose with unassuming and clear declamation, floating high notes above the orchestra and seemingly perfectly comfortable in a piece which sat well in her register. Conductor Michael Pratt kept an easy orchestral flow moving, and one could hear pre-World War I America in the graceful pizzicato of the strings, free-flowing melodic lines of the cello section, and elegant wind solos, including from oboist and English horn player Ethan Petno. Throughout the piece, Le Van communicated effectively to the audience throughout the hall, ramping up the intensity and drama of the middle section and joining the orchestra to close the work in peaceful nostalgia. Cellist Leland Ko, a sophomore at the University, chose as his winning performance piece Ernest Bloch’s Schelomo: Rhapsodie HĂŠbraĂŻque for Violoncello and Orchestra, a work dating from the same time period Barber’s Knoxville takes place. Schelomo was initially conceived by Bloch as a vocal work setting texts from the book of Ecclesiastes, but

while struggling with which language to use, the composer reconsidered the use of the cello, which can convey the same pensive quality as a human voice. Just as the trumpet is the instrument of the military, the cello might be the universal instrument of mourning, and Ko found the pain and introspectiveness of the work’s character from the outset. The solo cello line covered a wide range, and Ko easily conveyed both loss and peace — the thoughts of King Solomon. Led by Ruth Ochs, the University Orchestra members answered the cello solo cleanly, as an especially rich violin sectional sound added to the drama. Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev bridged not only the 19th and 20th centuries, but also classical and modern compositional idioms in his works. His 1935 Violin Concerto No. 2 in G Minor captured traditional Russian folk music in the first movement’s solo violin line, recalling an atmosphere of Spain in the closing third movement. Violinist Hana Mundiya, also a sophomore at Princeton, has been performing with orchestras worldwide since the age of 11, and immediately took charge of the virtuosic passages in Prokofiev’s work. Mundiya began the improvisatory opening of the concerto cleanly and without a great deal of vibrato, executing both sweet melodies and rapid-fire lines while showing no trouble handling the technical demands of the piece. A sextet of celli often took the melodic lead, and one could easily hear the dialog between the orchestra and soloist. Conductor Pratt kept the orchestra in tandem with the soloist, especially in sections of very soft dynamics. The second movement in particular was marked by an almost imperceptible solo line against “raindrops� of pizzicato strings. he Princeton University Orchestra has an extensive roster of musicians this year, some of whom rotated in and out of the pieces on Friday night. Pratt brought everyone back for the final work on the program, closing the concert with a spirited playing of Richard Strauss’s symphonic poem Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks. Chipper strings, mischievous winds, and unique percussion effects brought Strauss’s “bad boy� story to musical life, as the orchestra ended the evening in a teasing and playful mood. —Nancy Plum

appeared in television series such as Law and Order and One Life to Live. Because RJ alternates between agitation and equanimity, Hoehler’s performance is by turns noisy and quiet, showy and unassuming. This is reflected in Hoehler’s use of body language. At times he raises his arms in a flamboyant use of gestures; elsewhere he covers his chest with them, his objective being to cling to the few possessions he has left—most of them spiritual. Taking cues from the script, director Janice L. Goldberg provides staging that continues this study in contrasts, maintaining visual interest throughout the show. She lets Hoehler alternate between pacing the length of the stage, and pensively sitting on a crate. In one sequence RJ lies flat; in another he stands on a crate, to tower over the audience. Goldberg has had a previous collaboration with Passage Theatre. She directed another Solo Flights production: former Passage artistic director June Ballinger’s Once In‌ Never Out! Hoehler’s script likely would be equally powerful if delivered without any scenery or sound effects. However, these elements enhance the show. Craig Lenti’s sound design, with its church bells and gunfire, is effective in illustrating both the setting and the character’s state of mind. The same is true of the lighting by Michael Abrams, which at times is intentionally distracting. The costume by David Withrow consists of a worn dark brown suit, complete with vest and sport coat. This is put to thematic use; as the show progresses, the character removes the coat and vest. As he removes garments, he bares his soul. Mark Symczak’s scenery consists of a triptych. Three panels convey a storm-filled sky. The panels resemble paintings—and large video screens. This, too, is representative of the script’s themes, as both art and technology are discussed. (One of RJ’s adventures with Mars entailed a visit to a gallery.) of the Storm is by turns upsetting, poignant, and cathartic. In both his writing and performance, Hoehler is presenting a character in incessant conflict—with himself, and with scars he has accumulated from living in the 2010s. It is bracing to see him process the noise of the world, and to watch as he attempts to let his voice be heard amidst that noise. This poetic monologue offers a tour de force performance of an inventive, topical script. —Donald H. Sanborn III

Breaking Union Hex in ECACH Quarters, PU Men’s Hockey Playing Cornell in Semis

H

aving gone 0-17-3 in its last 20 games against Union, including 0-2 this season, the Princeton University men’s hockey team seemed overmatched as it faced the Dutchmen in an ECAC Hockey best-of-three quarterfinal series last weekend. But Princeton head coach Ron Fogarty wasn’t concerned about that history with his seventh-seeded Tigers having gone 9-2-1 in their last 12 games coming into the clash with secondseeded and No. 16 Union. “We have been playing consistent since the Harvard game in January,” said

Fogarty. “It has been a methodical game of doing the correct things over and over again; there has been a buy in.” In the opening game last Friday, it looked like history might be repeating itself as Union took a 3-2 lead into the third period. “Our thought process was get one goal; we knew we could score,” said Fogarty. “It wasn’t about trying to score two. It was get one goal and win the period and we will push it to OT.” The Tigers, though, ended up scoring three unanswered goals as junior Ryan Kuffner, sophomore Liam Grande, and senior Eric Robinson all found the back of the net for the Tigers. A night later, Princeton came through again in the third period, pulling out a 3-2 win and sweeping the series as senior David Hallisey scored with 10 seconds

remaining in regulation. Princeton, now 17-12-4, will play top-seeded and No. 2 Cornell (25-4-2) in the semis on March 16 in Lake Placid, N.Y. with the victor advancing to the title game on March 17 to face the winner of the Clarkson-Harvard semi. In the series decider against Union, Princeton built a 2-0 lead but found itself on its heels as the Dutchmen answered with two straight goals to make it a 2-2 game going into the third period. “My message going into the third period of the second game was if on Thursday, anyone presented us the opportunity to win one period to go to Lake Placid, we would take it,” said Fogarty. “So let’s just go win one period; the guys used the entire period to wait to score a goal.” Hallisey was the unlikely goal scorer, having suffered a leg injury on Friday which put his status for the second game in doubt. “David was sore. He was on crutches that evening,” said Fogarty. “Even during the conversation in the morning, he didn’t feel he could play. Then he had a great rest and did some rehab with John Furtado. We dressed him as an extra skater for the warm up and he felt good and then

he became the hero for the Tigers.” Fogarty felt very good about the Tigers advancing to the ECACH Final 4 for the first time since 2009. “It means a lot; it has been a steady progression over the four years for this team to get there,” said Fogarty. “They see the magic of the ‘98 and the ’08 teams [who each won the ECACH tourney] and they want to do that. We want to create a standard of getting back there each and every year. It is great to get the taste of it and we are going to enjoy the experience for a couple of days before the game on Friday.” Although the Tigers are sizzling, having outscored their foes 23-8 in going 4-0 in the first two rounds of the playoffs, Fogarty doesn’t believe his club has peaked. “I still think we can play better. There are some parts of our game that we are getting better at,” said Fogarty, whose team posted 8-2 and 7-1 wins over Brown in the opening round of the playoffs earlier this month. “You keep striving for improvements in the collective group and the individuals and we are getting a lot of players who are reaching their potential. We keep pushing it in practice, so our team has been getting better as the season moves on. It is a matter of things are working and what can we improve on.” Having lost twice to Cornell

in regular season action, falling 5-4 on November 4 and 7-1 on January 5, Princeton will have to work hard to overcome the Big Red. “It will be a tough game, which it should be when it is a championship weekend for the conference,” said Fogarty. “We will continue to do

the things that have gotten us here; they will continue to play their A-game. I just look forward to a great game. We have to just worry about our own game. That is how we got there, you can’t change now. You keep improving on how you got there so that is what we are doing.” —Bill Alden

Even though the Princeton University women’s basketball team rolled to the Ivy League regular season title, that didn’t guarantee the Tigers a spot in the upcoming NCAA tournament. Instead, the Tigers had to go to Philadelphia and survive a two-game gauntlet at the Ivy League postseason tourney to earn the league’s automatic bid to the Big Dance. “Knowing that we had to go into the weekend, earning this bid, we were totally locked in,� said Princeton head coach Courtney Banghart. “Before each game, I left the locker room and I said, ‘Who are the champs?’ and they said, ‘We are.’ and I said, ‘Go play like it.’� The Tigers did just that, topping fourth-seeded Yale 78-57 in the semis on Saturday and then routing second-seeded and host Penn 63-34 a day later in the Ivy championship game. “We really tried to pressure their guards because their posts are so good, we wanted to stagnate the ball and make sure that it didn’t move and they bought into that,� said Banghart. “Offensively, we wanted to share it; we wanted to move it. I thought both ends they were solid.� Last Monday, the Tigers, now 24-5, got their NCAA assignment as they were seeded 12th and will face fifth-seeded Maryland, 25-7, in Raleigh, N.C. on March 16

in the Kansas City bracket. “We have been to the tournament seven of the last nine years and I look at it and say, gosh, every year is different and it is so hard to get there,� said Banghart. “To know that these guys have earned a very coveted spot in the biggest athletic event for women that exists, it means a lot.� Princeton senior guard Kenya Holland is thrilled to be going to the NCAAs in her final college campaign. “It meant everything to us,� said Holland, a 5’8 native of Stafford, Va. who is averaging 3.5 points in 18 minutes a game off the bench this year with 29 3-pointers. “It is everything coming full circle from our freshman year and what we learned from the seniors that came before us and making sure that in our senior year we got the job done.� The Tigers got the job done with aplomb against Penn in the Ivy title game, jumping out to a 19-3 first quarter lead and never looking back in dismantling the Quakers. “Everyone, from player one to 14 was dialed in from the beginning,� said Holland, who scored six points off the bench against the Quakers after tallying nine in the win over Yale in the semis. “We heard a lot of people say it is hard to beat somebody three times in one

season. We wanted to come out and cut down the nets on their court.� Making it back to the NCAA tournament after not going last season is something the Tigers desperately wanted to accomplish. “As seniors, we have the experience but we know other people on our team haven’t,� said Holland. “We wanted to give other people the chance to have that experience and have the excitement and thrill we had freshman year.� Holland and her teammates are excited to get a rematch against Maryland, who defeated Princeton 8570 in the second round of the 2015 NCAA tourney, giving the Tigers their only blemish in a 31-1 campaign. “Getting the chance to play them again we just want to come out as hard as we can,� said Holland. “I know our coaches are going to do a great job with our scout; they are going to

have us as prepared as possible. We have just got to come out and play hard like we have done all year.� In Holland’s view, the Tigers are going to be hard to beat, having gone 11-1 in their last 12 games. “We have a lot of weapons and we have a lot of people stepping up at the end of the season at different parts of the floor,� said Holland. “We want make sure that everyone is at their most confident and that Abby [ Meyers ] is stepping into her role, Bella [Alarie] still playing hard, Leslie [Robinson] doing her thing, Carlie [Littlefield] is facilitating at the point guard role.� Holland relished stepping up in her role off the bench last weekend at the Ivy tourney. “I was just trying to be there when my team needs me and do whatever they need me to do on the court, whether that is defending or hitting shots,� said Holland. “It is just being ready when my number is called.� C om i ng i nto h e ar s e nior season, Holland was primed to assume a leadership role.

“I have learned so much from the upperclassmen and the seniors that have come before me,� said Holland. “It is really learning to step into a leadership role when it came my way and using my voice and embracing my role to help my team no matter what.� Banghart, for her part, credits Holland and fellow seniors Robinson and Tia Weledji with setting the tone for the Tigers this winter. “This is a league for seniors, and our seniors have earned it,� said Banghart. “This is Leslie Robinson’s team, she is the heart and soul of everything we do. She is our barometer.� Princeton will need to play with heart if it is to overcome powerhouse Maryland. “I knew we would get a good team, there are all good teams right now, there is no bad team in there,� said Banghart. “Maryland is not quite as big as they were when we played them before which will help us but they are second in the Big Ten so they are a good team.�

B anghar t believes her team that can upset the Terps if it is clicking. “It less about the opponent and if Bella plays like the star that she is, if our bench continues to outperform the other team’s bench, and if Leslie continues to lead this team with all of her heart,� said Banghart. “I think we are a tough out. It was Niveen Rasheed’s show, and then it was Blake Dietrick’s and now it is Bella’s show, but it is not just Bella. We have a lot of different guys with a lot of different experience.� Wit h B anghar t hav ing guided the Tigers to a first round win over WisconsinGreen Bay in t he 2015 NCAA tournament, she is primed to see Princeton experience another tourney victory. “I am going to make sure they understand that this program has won a tournament game,� said Banghart. “What this program hasn’t done yet is win two and that is what we are trying to do, win two.� —Bill Alden

After Cruising to Title at Ivy Postseason Tourney, PU Women’s Hoops to Face Maryland in NCAAs

TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, mARCh 14, 2018 • 34

Lifted by Sims’ Late Game Heroics, PU Men’s Lax Rallies to Beat Rutgers Austin Sims and his teammates on the Princeton University men’s lacrosse team weren’t about to hit the panic button even though they found themselves trailing Rutgers 14-10 with 9:58 remaining in the fourth quarter last Saturday at Class of 1952 Stadium. “We always say lacrosse is a game of runs; the coaches always say keep an even keel,� said Princeton senior midfielder Sims. “We really just stuck to what we practice and looked to grind things out.� Sims started a late run for Princeton, tallying with 8:03 left in regulation to narrow the gap to 14-11. After unanswered goals from Connor McCarthy and Duncan McKenzie, the Tigers made it a 14-13 game. With the clock winding down, Sims struck again, firing in a goal with 49 seconds left to force overtime, “It was man-up play,� recalled Sims. “We ran the same play earlier and I was able to get a good shot.� Minutes later, Sims got another good look, firing in a rocket shot from up top to give the Tigers a dramatic 15-14 win. “We always preach in practice just attacking hard. When you get the backside

dodge, you just try to make one hard move and go,� said Sims. “Once you beat your guy, it is the same shot you have practiced a million times in your back yard. I didn’t try to overthink it, I just tried to do what our coaches have preached throughout the whole year and luckily enough I was able to take it home.� After keeping their heads during their rally, the Princeton players went wild after the game-winner, running en masse across the field to mob Sims in celebration of the triumph that improved the Tigers to 3-2. The win meant that Princeton regained possession of Meistrell Cup, named after Harland “Tots� Meistrell, who re-started the lacrosse programs at each school in the 1920s. Last year, the Tigers fell 16-11 to the Scarlet Knights, their first defeat in the series since 2005. In the view of Sims, the rally showed a lot about the character of the Princeton squad. “We stuck to our fundamentals, played hard and luckily we were able to come out on top,� said Sims. “It is just a testament to how strong willed we are. We have a lot of underclass-

SHOOTING STAR: Princeton University men’s lacrosse player Austin Sims fires a shot in recent action.

men starting and we were able to pull it out and not freak out too much in the face of pressure.� The team’s senior group helped the Tigers keep their heads in the face of a tough challenge from a Rutgers squad that came into game ranked 13th nationally. “There is definitely a sense of urgency, but that is not to say that there isn’t a sense of urgency for the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors,� said Sims, who ended up with five goals and four ground balls against Rutgers as he broke out of a shooting slump. “It is our last year and we want to make sure that everyone else realizes that it goes by quickly.� Having dealt with injury issues last spring, co-captain Sims is looking to make the most of his final year of college lacrosse. “I missed a lot of games; it is not that I have a chip on my shoulder, but I realize that it is really special to be out here because I missed time last year,� said Sims, a 6’1, 185-pound native of Fairfield, Conn, who now has 11 goals and four assists this season. “It is fun being able to help coach some of the young guys like Chris Brown. I played a year with him in high school; I know his older brother. I am just trying to lead them.� Princeton head coach Matt Madalon acknowledged that his team was having a tough time as it fell behind early in the fourth quarter. “It wasn’t ideal; we failed a clear and we put ourselves in that position,� said Madalon. “We have had some hard practices and we have put guys in tough situations. You can’t score four goals at once so it was just chip away at them.� Madalon was glad to see Sims emerge as the hero for the Tigers. “Everyone is criticizing him, saying he hasn’t shot well,� said Madalon. “It is OK, just wait because it is coming. For him to hit those shots, he did an outstanding job.� Sophomore superstar Michael Sowers produced another outstanding performance, tying his career high of nine points as he chipped in three goals and a careerbest six assists. “I am getting spoiled with him; he is an offensive coordinator on the field,� said Madalon. “He reads defenses, he reads matchups. He makes everyone else around him better and that is his best trait.� T he Tigers got bet ter work in the face-off circle as senior co-captain Sam Bonafede went 19-of-33 in draws in the contest.

“We put the weight back on our senior’s shoulders,� said Madalon. “He is a senior captain. We asked him to get it done against two very good face-off guys and he worked his tail off. We are happy for his production, he did a really good job.� The Tigers, though, need to do a better job on defense as they are yielding 12.8 goals a contest. “We are still figuring ourselves out defensively,� said Madalon. “We are playing a lot of guys and we are young. We go into Ivy play next week so our goal is to solidify our defense. I am not sure we are there yet but we are working.� With Princeton opening Ivy action by hosting Penn (3-3) on March 17, Madalon is hoping his team can build on the effort against Rutgers. “To be able to come out and get a win against a very good Rutgers team, I am really happy,� said Madalon. “It shows a lot about perseverance. We really kept our heads, we really battled. You can’t ask for anything better.� Sims, for his part, knows that the Tigers will have to keep battling to do well against its league foes. “It is definitely great to get this win, it is a longtime rival but we can’t rest on our laurels,� said Sims. “We have to go out there and make sure that we are playing our best.� —Bill Alden

Carly Misiewicz sensed that her Princeton High girls’ swimming team was developing a special spirit as it headed into the homestretch of the season. “Our girls’ team was really passionate and really cared for each other,” said PHS head coach Misiewicz. “They wanted to dig deep.” PHS dug deep at the Mercer County Championships, taking a strong third, just five points behind second place Hightstow n in the meet won by WW/P-North. “I was really, really impressed with their performance at counties,” said Misiewicz, whose team capped the competition with a dominant victory in the 400-meter freestyle relay. “The 400 free relay was great. When I think about that race, it gives me goosebumps.” In the wake of the strong effort at the county meet,

PHS defeated Millburn 95.574.5 in the first round of the North 2 Public B sectionals before falling to Middletown South is the sectional quarterfinals to end the winter with a 9-4 record. “That was really nice to walk away from that and win,” said Misiewicz, reflecting on the victory over Millburn. “It was the last home meet.” The trio of seniors Samantha Davis, Emily Curran, Nicole Saengtawesin gave the Little Tigers a very nice effort this year. “Their contribution has been something that has been very admirable; I told them that we are going to miss you next year for sure,” said Misiewicz. “Emily Curran didn’t get the oppor tunity to swim last year. She had a lot of shoulder issues and complications. I told her it could

have been very easy for you to hang up the towel and not come back. It really means a lot to me and it shows her true character and what the team meant to her.” Senior newcomer Isabella Giglio showed character as she joined the squad. “Bella is one of the hardest working people you will ever see; she would work her butt off everyday,” said Misiewicz. “You tell her to work on something and she worked on it to the nth degree.” With such returners as freshman standout Becca Della Rocca, the count y champion in the 400 free, along with Emily Becker, Gwen Schilling, Satya Baliga, Cammie Davis, and Ella Caddeau, PHS has the potential to be something special next winter. “We have quite a few girls coming back,” said Misiewicz. “There is a very solid group, there are some strong swimmers.” —Bill Alden

PHS Boys’ Swimming Exceeded Expectations, Going 8-4 in Dual Meets, Taking 5th at Counties

Coming into the winter, the Princeton High boys’ swimming team seemed to be in rebuilding mode. “People didn’t look to us in the beginning and expect much from us, looking at who we lost over the past couple of years,” said PHS head coach Carly Misie wicz. “It was ‘Princeton is not going to be much this year.’” The Little Tigers turned out to be much better than expected, posting a 8 - 4 record in dual meets and placing fifth at the Mercer County Championships. “I think we really surpr ised people,” asser ted Misiewicz. “We had a lot of people in the top six in events at counties and we got second at one of the relays in counties.” In the state tournament, PHS battled valiantly as the second-seeded Little Tigers fell 96-74 to third-seeded Manasquan in the Central Jersey Public B sectional semifinals. “We had a lot of really, r e a l l y g o o d s w i m s t h at day,” said Misiewicz. “We really didn’t give up, they were definitely the better team that day. We swam the

best that we could on that day. Unfortunately there is always a winner and there is always a loser. You hate to be the loser but we really swam well.” S en iors Dan B arber is, Milos Seskar, Justin Keve, Karl Lackner, and Charlie Yandrisevits competed really well all winter in their f inal campaign w it h t he program. “Dan was our main senior; Milos came back this year and having him helped out in the breaststroke races and some of the sprint races,” said Misiewicz. “Karl was a club swimmer in his freshman year, and then he came back and became a f u ll-t ime high school sw immer. Hav ing him here on the backstroke and the individual medley was huge. Karl was happy to swim anything. Charlie was definitely key and it was really, really great to have him back this year.” G oing for ward, sopho more Jeshurun Reyen figures to be a key performer for the Little Tigers next season. “I could really tell that

Jeshurun was maturing this year and coming more into his own,” said Misiewicz. “He is one of the top contributors on the team and he knows that he is really going to have to step up and be a leader on the team as a junior.” PHS will also welcome back a number of big contributors in Oliver Tennant, Owen Tennant, Logan Eastman, John Liang, Fredrick Otte, and Will Murray. “The two Tennants are phenomenal swimmers ; they are both very versatile, you can put them in the individual medley, the butterfly, the 100 freestyle, the 500 free, almost anything,” said Misiewicz of the Tennant brothers. “Logan really surprised us in some of the sprints and the breaststroke. John went under a minute in the 100 f ly t his season. He dropp e d club s w im m ing this year and is just doing full-time high school. Will made it to the top six in the counties in the fly and the IM. He is another all-star s w i m m er, ver y ver s at i le with really good energy to have on the pool deck.” —Bill Alden

PHS Girls’ Swimming Enjoyed Superb Season, Fueled by Passion, Special Team Camaraderie

TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, mARCh 14, 2018 • 36

Sparked by Young Talent, Veteran Leadership, PHS Girls’ Hockey Produced Winning Season Even though his Princeton High girls’ hockey team went 3-10 in 2016-17, Christian Herzog had high hopes coming into this winter. “Going in, no matter what happens, I thought that we would be pretty close to .500,” said PHS head coach Herzog. The Little Tigers exceeded expectations, going 9-7-3 and advancing to the Moran ‘B’ Division final of WIHLMA (Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic) tournament. “I think the team came quite a way from last year to this year,” said Herzog. “We had a bit of talent coming in and it was good to see the returning players get to experience a little stronger season than some of the other ones they had in previous years.” The one -t wo punch of freshman Maddie Samaan and sophomore Victor ia Zammit gave PHS a stronger offense this winter. Samaan tallied 42 points on 27 goals and 15 assists in earning the program’s Captains’ Award while Zammit was the the team MVP with 44 points on 32 goals and 12 assists. “Maddie leads by example on the ice; she puts up a lot of points and is strong on the puck and has the ability

“Rubin and Schmult got a ton of time. They worked hard, they really improved for us. For Torres-Olivares, it was her second year and she came a long way position wise. She was much stronger on the puck. Nadeau and Beslity were there for the experience, to have fun and try something new. They really enjoyed being out there, they helped team morale.” PHS has the potential to be strong again next year with with such returners as Samaan, Victoria Zammit, junior Olivia Corrodi (the recipient of the team’s “Head, Heart, and Hustle” award), sophomore goalie E lla Chauder, f resh man Olivia Benevenuto, junior Sarah Pagano (the winner of the team’s Most Improved Player award), junior Catherine Liu, and junior Grace Reardon. In Herzog’s view, those player s a n d n ewcom er s would do well to follow in the positive mindset exuded by this year’s seniors. “Not a lot of kids have the perspective of ‘let’s enjoy this’; it is a really important perspective, and that is what the seniors had,” said Herzog. “It is ‘enjoy the moment, have fun with it.’ That is why you started hockey, to have fun with it.” —Bill Alden

Refusing to Let Shaky Start Get It Down, PDS Girls’ Hockey Produced Late Surge

When the Princeton Day School girls’ hockey team struggled to a 2-7-1 start this winter, it was time for some soul-searching. “We had a talk with the captain group in early January about basically, hey, we have a little over a month left,” said PDS head coach Lorna Cook. “It was, let’s make sure that we enjoy it and work hard and get the most out of it and not have a ride-it-out mentality but actually turn it up from here and make sure that we give it everything we have.” Taking that message to heart, the Panthers gave it their best down the stretch, going 7-6-1 over the rest of the winter to end with a final record of 9-13-2. The late surge was highlighted by beating Rye Countr y Day (N.Y.) 2-1 in overtime in the fifth place game of the WIHLMA (Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic) playoffs and then edging Chatham 1-0 in their season finale on February 22, wins that avenged previous defeats to those foes. “We kept focusing on that stuff within our group and not really worrying about our overall record as much,” said Cook. “I was glad that we were able to get up to nine wins. It just helps us gain some confidence, especially the way we came on at the end there.” The w in over Rye has proved to be a confidence builder as sophomore star Gia Massari and junior Julie Patterson combined to set up senior Sam Dwyer for the game-winning goal in overtime. “It was a good win for us; it was our first win in league play all season so it had just been an uphill battle for us,” said Cook, noting that PDS had gone 0-1-1 against Rye in two regular season contests. “Gia had a really good play to draw the penalty, and then she got it to Julie and then Julie surprised everyone going it back to Sam the way that she did. We thought she would take it behind the net and she put it out front instead and Sam was right there for it so it was nice goal.” Blanking Chatham in the finale was a very nice way to end the winter. “We thought we were pretty evenly matched with them all year and our scores didn’t reflect LIVING IT UP: Princeton High girls’ hockey player Olivia Corrodi controls the puck in a game this the way that we matched up season.

They look for each other on the ice.” Victoria’s older sister, senior star defenseman and team captain Alexa Zammit, led the blue line unit and also contributed offensively with 28 points on 17 goals and 11 assists. “It is going to be tough to see her go for sure,” said Herzog of Zammit, who earned the Coach’s Award this season. “She was a rock on defense. She was getting emotional at the last practice with the other seniors. She was saying, coach, I don’t want to get off the ice, that means it is over.” The rest of the team’s senior group, Valeria TorresOlivares, Sydney Rubin, Anna Schmult, Ella Nadeau, and Joslen Beslity, provided toughness and an upbeat attitude. “It was a good group of girls,” said Herzog, noting that Rubin was named the teams’ Harry Rulon-Miller W IHL M A spor tsmanship award recipient.

handled it really well. We worked with her all season on just focusing on what she could control and being mentally tougher that way. She really did come on strong.” The squad’s two seniors, Emma Latham and Dwyer, provided strong leadership as they helped keep the Panthers on track. “We didn’t have a big senior class and there was a lot of pressure on them,” said Cook. “I think our juniors and sophomores, and down to the freshmen by the end of the year, embraced the roles that they had as far as being good teammates. I think our seniors get a lot of credit for that too, as far as trying not to be down on the fact that we had a younger team and to just enjoy it.” Cook enjoyed seeing the play of Massari, who led the team in scoring with 33 points on 17 goals and 16 assists. “Gia was consistent for us all year; we moved her back to defense and she just takes control of the game back there,” said Cook. “I think as the season went along, you saw it more every game. She was setting the example of that consistent effort and that mindset of I am just going to go and play my game and try to help all of my teammates get better too.” At forward, Patterson got better and better as the sea-

son went on, ending up with 26 points on 15 goals and 11 assists. “Julie has improved so much,” said Cook, noting that Patterson ended up w inning the breakaways event at the WIHLMA skills competition. “For her, it is just continuing to work to put it all together to be more consistent and she is definitely getting better at that. She has been a fun one to watch her develop.” With a core of returners including Maisie Henderson, Hannah Choe, Sasha Sindhwani, Bryn Aprill, and Flynn Gorman in addition to Wexler, Haggerty, Massari, and Patterson, the future looks bright for PDS. “We looked at it this year that we just wanted to have a good foundation to build on,” said Cook. “I think we saw a lot of improvement from our younger players.” In addition to building that foundation of talent, the Panther players forged some deep bonds as they persevered through the campaign. “It definitely helps with confidence; but the way that the team came together and stayed together is even a bigger thing,” said Cook. “I hope that the girls are excited about going into next year to be together again. We didn’t have a winning record overall, but that didn’t impact the way they felt about being together. That really speaks volumes for the group that we have.” —Bill Alden

BIG FINISH: Princeton Day School girls’ hockey player Sam Dwyer brings the puck up the ice in a game this season. Senior forward and co-captain Dwyer came up big down the stretch for PDS, scoring the game-winning goal as the Panthers topped Rye Country Day (N.Y.) 2-1 in overtime in the fifth place game of the WIHLMA (Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic) playoffs. The Panthers edged Chatham 1-0 in their season finale on February 22 to end the winter with a 9-13-2 record. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski)

Nancy Yongcha Yi Nancy Yongcha Yi, 89, a 28-year resident of Princeton and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed on early Friday, March 9, 2018, surrounded by her loving family. Nancy was born in Mokpo City on the Southwestern tip of the Korean Peninsula on December 2nd, 1928 to her Father Bai Seokpil and Mother Kim Aekum. Not long after she was born, her family moved to Seoul,

Korea where her fat her worked for a major shipping company. She lived most of the next 20 years in Seoul where she attended Sookmyung Girls’ High School, the first Private Royal Educational Institute for Girls in Korea founded in 1906 by Empress Sunheon. She went on to attend Seoul Women’s Teachers College, but her education was cut short by the breakout of the Korean War in 1950. She and her family escaped the wrath of war by relocating to Busan in the southernmost part of Korea she worked at the First Bank of Korea. As the war came to an end, Nancy returned to Seoul in 1955 and married her soulmate of 57 years, Edward Sunghyok Yi. As their marriage blossomed, she was blessed and became a proud mother of their two sons, Peter ( Ilchin ) and Robert (Myungjin). In 1974, Nancy, Edward, and her two young sons ventured to the United States in pursuit of the American Dream. The dream became a reality for them in New York City as Nancy ran her own business centered around fashion, and Edward succeeded in developing an import-export business around the favored trade nation sta-

tus of Korea with the United States. After years of entrepreneurship in New York City, Nancy and Edward retired in 1990 to Princeton, where they spent the remainder of their years together enjoying much of what Princeton has to offer. If Nancy was not aggressively competing against her husband on the golf course, she was most likely preparing excellent traditional Korean meals for her family, rendering valuable and well considered fashion advice to her many friends, attending the Korean Presbyterian Church of Princeton, or spending time with her friends at the senior center. Na n c y w i l l b e m is s e d by everyone who came to know her for her youthful smile, optimism, great eye for fashion, sharp sense of humor, spunk, and commanding the lead of dinner conversation. She is survived by her two sons, Peter, a medical oncologist in Princeton; and Robert, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics in Seoul; two daughters-in law, Alice and Grace; two brothers, Sooil and Don Bai; and four grandchildren, Justin, Lauren, Jonathan, and Erin.

Connie Hazelwood Poor Connie Hazelwood Poor passed away on March 2, 2018, at her home in Princeton. She was born on July 27, 1953, to Roland and Mable (Townsend) Hazelwood in Fayetteville, Tennessee, where she grew up before moving to Phenix City, Alabama, in 1962. She leaves behind her devoted husband of 44 years, H. Vincent Poor. They met as students at Central High School in Phenix City, where they began their lifelong partnership in 1969 and were married in 1973. Connie is also survived by their

daughters, Kristin Poor of Brooklyn, New York, and Lauren Poor of Los Angeles, California; and by her parents in Athens, Alabama, and younger sister, Melinda Ker r of Huntsv ille, A labama. Connie studied at the Ida V. Moffett School of Nursing in Birmingham, Alabama, and at the University of Illinois in Urbana. She began her long and varied nursing career at the Lee County Hospital in Opelika, Alabama, in 1973, and worked subsequently at the Princeton Medical Center, Carle Clinic in Urbana, and at HiTops in Princeton. She spent much of her career as a nurse educator, work driven by her commitment to social justice. After her retirement from nursing, she became a docent at the Princeton Universit y Ar t Museum, an avocation that she found to be immensely re w ard i n g. A lon g - t i m e Princeton resident, she was generous with her time, volunteering at WomanSpace, the Mercer County Medical Reserve Corps, the Princeton Fete, the Present Day Club, the Parent-Teacher Organizations of the John Witherspoon School and P r i nce ton H igh S cho ol, and as a Board Member of HiTops and the Princeton Adult School, among others. One year, she convinced friends to join her in biking 300 miles in three days for the AIDS Ride from Boston to New York. Connie was deeply loving, compassionate, and fiercely liberal. Gracious and warm, her presence would light up any room she entered. Those who met her often commented on her unreserved and

radiant smile, her glorious red hair, and lovely, ever-soslight Southern accent. She adored art in all its forms, a passion that she in turn inspired in her daughters. She was an avid photographer, had a keenly observant eye for nature’s intricate details, and was known to stop and marvel at every flower, fern, and bird on her daily walks in the woods. With her husband Vince, she enthusiastically traveled the world. She never forgot her roots, most recently traveling back to Alabama for her father’s 90th birthday celebration, which she gracefully organized even in illness. She was a master gift-giver and maker, knitting warm wares of all kinds for loved ones and hosting knitting circles for worthy causes. She provided a deep sense of comfort to all the people, plants, and animals in her world. Beloved w ife, par tner, mother, daughter, sister, and friend, she was a calm and gentle presence, whose joy in life’s beauty was contagious. This remarkable optimism is just one of many gifts she has left behind. A f ter being diagnosed w it h c ancer in Oc tober 2017, Connie was lovingly cared for by her family and many friends. In her final days, she was at home, surrounded by loved ones and song, still smiling and making all those around her feel at peace. Among her last words were, “How beautiful. You’re all so beautiful.” In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Princeton Universit y Ar t Museum. A memorial service is being planned for the spring.

CURRENT RENTALS

MAKE YOUR LISTING STAND OUT: FOCUS ON TRENDS Photos, videos and 3D tours are all great tools to use to showcase your listing. But while these visual aids can definitely add a little glitz to your listing - and increase interest in your property - that doesn’t mean you can neglect the written description. In fact, your description can have a huge bearing on how many people your listing attracts, the types of buyers who see the listing, and even the price your property will bring. The secret: Make sure your listing showcases trending features that are most likely to attract buyers. Sure, fireplaces and built-in bookcases are nice to have. But a recent survey by ZIllow found popular terms like “barn door� or “farmhouse sink� resulted in faster sales and higher prices. The moral is this: If you’ve got it, flaunt it. And if you haven’t got any popular features in your home, you might consider adding one or two. After all, the cost of adding a barn door isn’t too steep - and it could pay off handsomely at your closing. How can you tell which features buyers are looking for in your neighborhood? Simple: Ask your real estate agent. They know what’s selling (and what’s not).
