FreeB Schedule Changes Have Been Put on Hold Following Public Comment

Proposed changes to the schedule of the FreeB, which takes commuters to and from the Dinky train station and other locations in town, are being reconsidered following comments offered by members of the public at a meeting of Princeton Council Monday night, October 23.

A report on final route changes indicated cuts on some commuter runs and added trips on the neighborhood loop, which travels between Elm Court, the downtown, Princeton Shopping Center, and Bunn Drive. A ridership survey showed that the commuter runs had an average of three passengers per trip, but the neighborhood runs showed an average of 13 passengers. Commuter ridership has decreased from about 12,000 trips per year before the Dinky station was moved to its present location, to just under 10,000 trips.

A common complaint among members of the public has been the lack of publicity about the free bus. “People don’t know about it,” said Molly Sullivan, who rides the bus to and from the Dinky station during the work week. She suggested the committee change its strategy to first market the service, then collect data, and finally come up with a new schedule.

“The proposed schedule doesn’t serve the main commuter time in the evening,” she added.

Ted Moss, driver of the FreeB for the last six years, urged the committee not to cut out the 5:25 p.m. run to the Dinky station. On the neighborhood runs, the 10:08 a.m. stop at Redding Circle draws the most riders, he said. Moss had several points to raise, including a complaint about faulty heating on the bus. “We have a brand new, $90,000 vehicle with heat from the third seat forward and nothing behind,” he said. “I have complained since October but nothing has been done.”

Fay Reiter, chair of the town’s Public Transit Advisory Committee, acknowledged that the complaints have been lodged and said they were under consideration. Mayor Liz Lempert advised the committee to do some tweaking, and then come back to Council not for a vote, but just to inform them of changes and help convey them to the public.

“It’s a complicated optimization challenge and a lot of it is basic math,” said Councilwoman Jenny Crumiller, liaison to the committee. Reiter commented, “Our Continued on Page 14

Six School Board Candidates Speak Out The six candidates for three open seats on the Board of Education of the Princeton Public Schools were asked to tell us again, in only about 100 words, “why we should vote for you.” The election will take place on November 7. Here are their responses: Beth Behrend

Our School Board oversees a $95 million budget and is planning a multi-milliondollar facilities expansion that will shape our schools and impact Princeton taxpayers for decades to come. Homeowners are deeply concerned about high property taxes, while the cost of delivering an excellent education for our kids continues to rise. The need to improve wellness, balance, and equity in our schools is urgent.

My financial, legal, and business experience, together with years of school and community service and leadership, make me well equipped to help navigate these complex challenges. As a parent, taxpayer, and passionate supporter of our public schools, it would be an honor to serve this wonderful community — and our children — on the Princeton School Board.

Jessica Deutsch

I am the candidate who brings professional credentials in education (Harvard EdM) and social work (Rutgers MSW).

The group I founded, Princeton Balance, shifted the local conversation on student well-being. Hard, urgent work remains, so that all students can do well, and be well. I will help make policy decisions that promote excellence and balance for all students. We must close the opportunity gap. I have the skills to facilitate listening, collaboration, creativity, and

strategic action. I waited to run until my children were in college, so I have the long view of the schools. I will be a thoughtful, responsible steward of your taxpayer dollars and resources. I am determined and prepared to lead and serve on behalf of our entire community.

James Fields

Wang and Lipsitz Discuss Gerrymandering, Fixing the Distorted Democratic Process “Redistricting: It’s Not Just for Political Junkies Anymore!” read the words on the screen at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Princeton Monday night, as Princeton University Neurobiology Professor Sam Wang and Queens College City University of New York Political Science Professor Keena Lipsitz explained how gerrymandering is undermining our democratic system.

Founder of the Princeton Gerrymandering Project and the Princeton Election Consortium, Wang discussed “pitched battles over partisan gerrymandering,” which makes it possible by the drawing of district lines for “50 percent of the votes in a state to elect as many as 75 percent of the representatives.”

WHO KNEW?: Filmmaker Roger Sherman, seen shooting a scene for “In Search of Israeli Cuisine,” was stunned to discover the country’s food scene, “the hottest, most dynamic in the world.” The documentary, preceded by a food tasting, screens Sunday at The Jewish Center of Princeton.

Israel’s Exploding Food Scene Is Focus of Jewish Center Event

Roger Sherman had never been to Israel when a friend invited him, last minute, to join a food-focused trip to that country. Always looking for a new project, the Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker decided to accept the offer.

“I said, why Israel? But I went. And I was completely knocked out by what I found there,” said Sherman, whose In Search of Israeli Cuisine will be screened Sunday, October 29, at The Jewish Center of Princeton. The affable director will be on hand for a discussion at the event, which also includes a tasting of Israeli cuisine featuring recipes from the cookbook Zahav: A World of Israeli Cooking. The event is open to the public ($18 for Jewish Center members; $25 for non-members).

Sherman’s company, Florentine Films, has screened the documentary at more than 140 international film festivals and special screenings. The film took five years to make and was released in 2015.

the hottest, most dynamic food scene in the world, because there are some 150 cultures that have either come to the country or never left it,” said Sherman. “And it is a climate bonanza, a place where fresh vegetables are grown year round. It’s very cold in the north and hot in the south.

Israel is so small that you can go from one end of the country to the other in about two hours. And that means everything is local.”

TOPICS Of the Town Once a poor country, Israel is now swarming with restaurants and cafes. “You can’t get into restaurants in Tel Aviv, and now in Jerusalem,” Sherman said. “It’s like going to the Meatpacking District in New York City at 1 a.m. It’s hopping.

I don’t know how people get up and go to work the next day. This place is phenomenal, plus it’s gorgeous and the people are lovely.”

Sherman’s earlier films include Zapruder & Stolley: Witness to an Assassination, Don’t Divorce the Children, Strings Without Borders, and several other titles. He is the cinematographer on most of the films he creates, which cover such subjects as art, history, science, social issues, the environment, and food. The documentaries have won an Emmy, a Peabody, and a James Beard Award, and have received two Academy Award nominations.

When he came back from his trip to Israel in 2011 and told people about its food scene, “they either laughed at me or didn’t believe me,” Sherman said. “So I thought it was a great subject for a film.”

A mutual friend introduced Sherman to Israeli-born, Pittsburgh-raised Michael Solomonov, whose Zahav restaurant in Philadelphia opened in 2008 and has won multiple awards. “I realized I needed somebody who understood all those cultures and the food to somehow be our guide,” Sherman said. “I didn’t want a travel film. My wife and I went to Zahav for dinner and we were completely knocked out. Many Israelis agree his hummus is as good as any

in Israel. People have big debates about who has the best hummus.”

Sherman’s w ife, w riter and editor Dorothy Kalins, founded and edited the magazine Saveur, and was editor of Metropolitan Home. She recently collaborated with Solomonov on the book Zahav: A World of Israeli Cooking.

Shooting took about five weeks, at more than 100 locations throughout Israel.

“Every day was an incredible surprise,” Sherman said. “It was the people as much as the food. Here is a country that is surrounded by hate, and yet the people have been rated as some of the Continued on Next Page

happiest in the world. It’s a real ‘us against them’ mentality, and they really bond.

They are happy, outgoing, open, and friendly.”

S o l o m o n o v ’s y o u n g e r brother, David, was in the Israeli army and was killed in his final weekend of service. The tragedy was inspiration for the trained chef’s interest in Israeli cuisine.

“So the film has a bigger meaning,” Sherman said.

“We don’t beat you over the head with it, but it was the tenth anniversary of David’s death.”

The ongoing conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is present in the film.

“Pales t in ians have foo d that goes back hundreds of years, and it’s now called Israeli, so they weren’t so happy about that,” Sherman said. “So there is food politics in the film. And yet, there are many Palestinian and Jewish chefs working on special projects to show people there is a way for us to live together and do it right.”

But political issues are only one part of the picture.

“I didn’t want to be so naive as to think I could create peace through food,” Sherman concluded. “I set out to make a film that was much more than a food film or travel film. Israel is a complex and wonderful place.”

Concierge Medicine

There’s a new trend in healthcare, and it’s gaining momentum in our area.

By Sarah Emily Gilbert (Originally published in Princeton Magazine) Dr. Barbara A. Brown (left) and Dr. Lynne B. Kossow of Princeton Lifestyle Medicine.

F

or the past two years, Dr. Lynne B. Kossow and Dr. Barbara A. Brown of Princeton Lifestyle Medicine have offered their patients far more than the traditional primary care practice. Most doctors see 25-30 patients a day for an average of 15 minutes, but Drs. Kossow and Brown see six to eight patients a day for up to an hour. In addition to providing treatment for acute illnesses, the doctors act as their clients’ healthcare coaches through Lifestyle Medicine, a scientific approach to patient wellness by effecting changes in areas such as diet, physical activity, and stress management. With the current shortage of primary care physicians and the abundance of high volume practices, this type of individualized attention is rare. However, by switching to a concierge format, doctors like Kossow and Brown are able to practice medicine that consists of this broad-spectrum care.

Concierge medicine, also known as retainer-based medicine, is an umbrella term for private medical care wherein patients pay an out-of-pocket fee in exchange for enhanced care. Born in the 1990s, concierge medicine was once thought of as a service for the wealthy that charged patients a lofty fee for luxury medicine. In recent years, it has evolved to accommodate patients across all income brackets, leading to expanding interest among patients and their primary care doctors.

According to a survey released by the American Academy of Private Physicians at the AAPP 2015 Fall Summit, more than 45 percent of 862 independent physicians would consider a concierge or similar membership model in the next three years. This may be due in part to our aging population needing increased and varied medical services, leading to an imbalanced patient/doctor ratio. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act has increased the number of insured patients, putting a further strain on primary care doctors. As a result, physicians are often unable to dedicate enough time to each patient. In the hopes of increasing both job and patient satisfaction in a financially sustainable way, primary physicians like Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are looking toward concierge medicine.

“Where conventional medicine is failing is in the prevention and reversal of chronic diseases that are becoming an epidemic in the United States today,” explain the doctors. “The current insurance model is built upon a problem-based economic reimbursement that encourages doctors to address medical problems very quickly. This leads to most doctors rushing to see 25-30 patients per day in order to make ends meet…This is not how we have ever practiced. We always want to have the time to address the root cause of diseases that are preventable today.”

“For the past two years, we have been offering our Lifestyle Medicine Concierge Program as an optional program for our patients,” they continue.

“Lifestyle Medicine is a 21st century approach to healthcare that consolidates the very best characteristics of traditional medicine with the profound impact of lifestyle behaviors on health. As our program grew, it became readily apparent to us that integrating Lifestyle Medicine into our internal medicine practice

was the best way for us to continue to provide exceptional care… We feel that the concierge model is the only way to effectively [do that].”

Concierge medical practices come in various forms, including those that reject insurance plans all together, but this is not the case for Princeton Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown accept insurance for all covered medical services. In addition, their patients pay an annual fee of $1,200 for the Lifestyle Medicine Concierge program, which gives them access to an elevated level of care. Trained at the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine at Harvard Medical School, the doctors are at the vanguard of their field, having lectured about their practice development model at The Institute of Lifestyle Medicine Conference in 2015.

They are also members of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the American College of Physicians.

Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown’s practice is unique in that it offers patients comprehensive conventional medical care combined with lifestyle counseling.

Patients interested in a natural approach to disease prevention are provided in-depth, individualized coaching based on their needs. The doctors can assist with everything from quitting smoking to creating a manageable diet and exercise plan.

According to the doctors, this is an evidence-based practice that has been shown to prevent, reverse, or slow down heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, dementia, and some cancers. The concierge model offers Princeton Lifestyle Medicine patients additional benefits including access to the doctors’ emails, cell phone numbers, and private phone line, extended patient office visits, a one-hour consultation, and same or next day appointments. As a result, patients see Drs. Kossow and Brown not only as accomplished medical doctors, but health advocates, mentors, and even friends.

“Our practice structure allows us to spend more time educating our patients about what may be going on with them medically,” the doctors explain. “We are better able to work with them as partners in their care and advocate for them with their specialists or if they are in the hospital. We provide tremendous support and guidance to them and their caretakers or family. We are happy to have this enhanced communication with our patients. It allows us to make social visits when they are hospitalized at the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro so that we can stay in close touch while they are receiving care.”

Concierge practices like Princeton Lifestyle Medicine focus the healthcare system on its most vital component: the patient-doctor relationship. The model emphasizes quality care instead of quick care, benefitting both parties. This is helping revive medical students’ interest in internal medicine, which is predicted to increase the number of primary care doctors and revitalize our healthcare system. As leaders in both concierge and Lifestyle medicine, it comes as no surprise that Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are at the forefront of this effort, bringing Princeton into the future of healthcare.

The Princeton Lifestyle Medicine Concierge Program is $1,200 per year. The fee can be paid monthly, quarterly, biannually, or annually, and credit cards are accepted as payment. All medical services are billed through the patient’s insurance company as usual.

Princeton Lifestyle Medicine is located at 731 Alexander Road, Suite 200 in Princeton, New Jersey. For more information call 609.655.3800 or visit www.princetonlifestylemedicine.com.

hearings on Gill v. Whitford, gerrymandering has been in the news. Democratic voters sued the state of Wisconsin after Republican state lawmakers redistricted the state and Republicans were able to win 60 out of 99 state legislative seats in the next election despite earning a minority of votes. “It was an impressive distortion of democracy,” Wang said.

In the presentation sponsored

by Indivisible Princeton, Wang described the Gill v. Whitford hearings that he attended three weeks ago. “Election law is quite difficult to navigate,” he said. He questioned, “Will the Supreme Court get involved to put guard rails in place to prevent the worst offenses of gerrymandering from occurring? Is election law an impregnable fortress?”

Wang explained that his focus was on Justice Anthony Kennedy, who, Wang believes, will cast the decisive vote (5-4) in the case. The justices’ oral arguments, according to Wang, indicate how they are leaning, and he thinks that Kennedy will probably vote on the Whitford side, “to put guardrails on gerrymandering.”

Kennedy, Wang said, “is likely to rule that partisan gerrymandering is an offense under the first amendment, that voters should not be penalized based on affiliation with a particular political party.”

Wang noted that there’s room for improvement in the equity of districting in New Jersey, but that states like New Jersey and California that have bipartisan commissions are likely to be more equitably apportioned than states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan, which should “create commissions to achieve lasting reforms so that one party doesn’t control the whole process.”

Wang argued that the past few years have seen the most partisan gerrymandering ever, and he cited three reasons: means, with technology providing the power to explore unlimited redistricting possibilities; mo-

tives, with partisanship growing more and more bitter; and opportunity, with single parties increasingly gaining control of redistricting.

“To slay the partisan gerrymander,” Wang said, requires either court action or other reform initiatives like petitions and campaigns that individual citizens can participate in.

In response to a question about the wider impact of gerrymandering in discouraging voting and undermining democratic government, Wang described a “declining trust in institutions of all sorts. The democratic process is distorted in front of us.”

He added, “Of the members of the Supreme Court, the person who is most concerned about this is Ruth Bader Ginsburg,” who questioned “whether it meant anything to have the right to vote in the face of partisan gerrymandering.”

Continuing on a more positive note, Lipsitz noted that there have been large turnouts in recent elections, and Wang concluded, “Even in the face of widespread gerrymandering, as distorted as the system is, there is a reasonable shot for the Democrats to regain the majority in the House next year.”

The body of Nicholas Pratico, the 18-year-old student at Mercer County Community College who disappeared on September 20, was found at approximately 10 a.m. on Monday, October 23 by Hamilton Township Police with the assistance of New Jersey State Police, in the woods across from the campus on Old Trenton Road in West Windsor.

According to information on the Hamilton Township website, an autopsy will be performed by the Middlesex County Medical Examiner’s Office to determine the cause of death.

Pratico, who graduated last June from Notre Dame High School in Lawrence Township, was reported missing by his family after freshman orientation at the college. The family used social media to help locate him, and shared a statement on Facebook upon his recovery.

“While we hoped and prayed for a different outcome, we have been buoyed by our faith and the strength of our family, neighbors, and the community at large,” they posted this week. “We want to thank everyone for their thoughts, prayers, and incredible efforts to bring Nicholas home safely.”

Anyone with any information regarding this incident is asked to contact Detective Len Gadsby of the Hamilton Police Division Criminal Investigations Section at (609) 581-4032 or the Hamilton Police Crime Tip Hotline at (609) 581-4008.

“There’s no art to find the mind’s construction in the face,” said Shakespeare’s King Duncan in Macbeth, as he observed the execution of the traitorous, once-loyal Thane of Cawdor.

Princeton University Psycholog y Professor A lexander Todorov has come to the same conclusion in Face Value: The Irresistible Influence of First Impressions, his recent book that explores why we continue — irrationally, often dangerously, — to pay so much attention to faces.

“We form first impressions of people all the time, and we should be mindful of this,” Todorov said. “It matters. We are overconfident in these impressions.”

He sees little progress in society’s ability to overcome these prejudices and warns of the consequences in the world of politics and all human interactions. “People are mindful that there is discrimination based on race, gender, and sexual orientation,” he said, “and many institutions implement policies designed to prevent these kinds of bias. But similar things happen based on facial appearance — irrespective of race and gender. And if you’re not mindful, these appearance biases are going to play a role in real-world interactions and real-world outcomes.”

To dorov is cont i nu i ng his work on first impressions and pointed out that recently there has been a surprising return of the

pseudoscience of physiognomy “under a modern disguise — studies using AI (artificial intelligence) algorithms to predict character from facial images.” Todorov contended that these studies are just as flawed as many human studies he w rote about in his book that make similar claims about the accuracy of human character judgments based on facial appearance.

“It is ironic and sad to see many of the blunders committed in the 19th century (think of eugenics, which was tightly related to physiognomy, another story you can find in my book) being committed today,” he said.

In a 2005 edition of Science magazine, Todorov coauthored a paper showing that many election outcomes can be predicted using snap judgments of politicians’ faces. “That really piqued my interest about what’s behind those impressions.”

He continued, “I’m totally mistrustful of these impressions as a kind of guide to what a person is like. I’m aware that you form impressions all the time. But especially when it comes to making important decisions, I really try to minimize their influence.”

A facult y member at Princeton since 2002, Todorov cited striking examples of erroneous first impressions. “According to historians, the worst American president (so far) is Warren Harding. At the time, in the 1920s, his face was ana-

Princeton Psychologist’s New Book: “Don’t Trust Those First Impressions” lyzed by physiognomists to show his ‘greatness.’”

Todorov described Michael Lewis’ Moneyball as “a story of how you can become a super successful baseball manager by exploiting the prejudices of appearance.

Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland A’s, recruited baseball players with terrific statistical records of performance but who failed to look the part.

They didn’t look like professional players, and as a result were undervalued.”

Todorov feels that laws or policies to combat these first impression prejudices would be difficult to implement, but he cited the example of blind auditions for large symphony orchestras leading to the increase of successful women auditioners. “The committee could not see the candidates and, consequently, judge them on appearance, in this particular case gender. This is a case where subtle biases were prevented from influencing hiring decisions.”

He concluded, “In the absence of explicit policies, the first step is to make people aware of such biases.”

Jenny Ludmer Is Willing to Ask Hard Questions, Even When Unpopular, On All Aspects of Budget

To the Editor: as long-term Princeton residents with children who are attending or have graduated from Princeton Public Schools, we know firsthand how integral our children’s experience in Princeton Public Schools is to success in their lives. We believe that investment in our town’s public education system is critical and remain committed to ensuring that future generations receive the same excellent education.

However, as an active part of this vibrant community, we know there are many faced with the imminent possibility of having to leave due to financial constraints. There are numerous issues impacting the entire community that the newly elected board will have to contend with — from the reported growth in student enrollment, to the contract with cranbury up for renewal in 2020, to the multi-million-dollar facilities referendum expected to go to voters next year.

It is vital that our Board of Education take its mission to represent taxpayers seriously, remembering that a higher tax burden can undermine our community’s commitment to a socioeconomically diverse population. We need Board members willing to ask hard questions, even when unpopular, and analyze all aspects of the budget — keeping in mind the impact to the entire community. We believe Jenny ludmer is that candidate. as the parent of three young children in Princeton Public Schools, Jenny has a direct interest in making sure our schools are excellent. Her willingness to serve on the complete Streets committee — a municipal group tasked with ensuring our streets are safe and accessible to riders of all ages and abilities — exemplifies her commitment to the wider community. Jenny’s background in scientific analysis will assist her in applying a rigorous process and well-reasoned approach to finding solutions.

With her vision, passion, commitment, and most importantly — her unwavering integrity — we believe Jenny will continue to work tirelessly, as she has since moving to Princeton, for the entire community. We are confident Jenny will help to find solutions that balance the interests of young

families who want the best education for their children, with those of older residents who desire to remain in the community that has become their hometown.

If you are looking for a candidate who will truly represent all of Princeton, on November 7, please join us in voting for Jenny lUDMEr — laST on the ballot, First for Princeton! arcHaNa NIMgaONkar, Jack aND UScHI TaylOr, aNN MarcIaNO, ElaINE WIlSON caldwell Drive kEN aND JEN carSON, NaNcy TSaI Herrontown road aMIE THOrNTON aND craIg carNarOlI, JOSEPHINE aND JOHN WErTH, BETSy DENNy Bertrand Drive

Julie Ramirez Has a Passion for Doing What’s Right for Children in Princeton Public Schools

To the Editor: We heartily encourage Princeton voters to join us in voting for Julie ramirez for the Princeton Board of Education on November 7.

Over the last year we have worked closely with Julie on a volunteer initiative for our school district. Julie has deeply impressed us with her passion for doing what’s right for children in the Princeton Public Schools, how she always combines that passion with pragmatism and good sense, and how she harnesses those qualities for effective leadership.

That Julie joins these traits so effectively is a testament to her most relevant qualifications to serve on the school board: a breadth of knowledge and experience in our schools at all grade levels, as her four children (in grades 5, 7, 10, and 12) have attended Princeton Public Schools since kindergarten; and her 20-year career as a financial systems project management professional.

The operations of our school district are complex, and the board faces significant challenges in the coming years. With her professional experience in large-scale project management, it will be second nature for Julie to help prioritize the actions and decisions that our district needs to take, to find ways that the district can achieve greater quality with constrained resources, and achieve measurable, meaningful results. These skills will prove invaluable on the school board, especially as Princeton Public Schools embarks on the capital improvements needed to serve our community’s growing enrollment.

Perhaps more than any other quality, Julie has impressed

us with her work ethic. Even while working and raising four busy kids, Julie is always one of the most determined, steadily reliable, and thoughtfully engaged person involved in her volunteer commitments. When you work with Julie, you get both quantity and quality.

These are just some of the reasons we support Julie’s candidacy for School Board, but there are more: her commitment to transparency, her concern for students of diverse backgrounds and needs, her desire to see the district continue to innovate around how it serves all of its students, and more.

Julie ramirez is exactly the kind of leader we need now on the Princeton Public Schools Board of Education. Please give Julie your vote on November 7. aMy craFT Poe road aNNE DESMOND Tee-ar Place

Former Township Mayor Marchand Backs Tuck-Ponder in School Board Election

To the Editor: How wonderful that six people are running for the Princeton School Board! Democracy is about choices and I am happy that I have that in this School Board election. One of my votes will be for Michelle Tuck-Ponder. I have worked with her during my 22 years in elected office and after that too.

She has been consistently prepared, honest, and knowledgeable. We didn’t always agree on some issues but we respected each other and civility always reigned. I stress that because her stellar resume informs you of the breadth of her academic and professional experience, and of her community involvement that will be of value to the School Board. What is not easily evident on any resume are the “people” skills that are essential to being a superior School Board member, or for that matter, being a productive member of any board.

The ability to listen, to be flexible, open-minded, accessible, and patient are vital skills that are not always apparent on paper. Michelle has these very important qualities. I hope that your thoughtful evaluation of the candidates will lead you to join me on November 7 in supporting Michelle Tuck-Ponder for the Princeton Board.

Supporting Jess Deutsch and Beth Behrend For Princeton School Board Vote November 7

To the Editor: community and friends, please accept this letter to the editor as food for thought as you prepare to cast your ballots for new members to the Princeton Public Schools Board of Education (BOE). Having run for the BOE in Princeton years ago and now running campaigns for progressive candidates in different states around the country, I am interested to see the number of really good Princeton people wanting to serve our town, kids and families. However, with every election there are winners and candidates who didn’t get enough votes.

There are no losers when it comes to community service and wanting your school system to be the best and your students prepared to learn and to live. anyone who takes the time to run a campaign, be a candidate, share a thoughtful educational message is to be applauded. Having said that, there are three available seats on the board and I want to encourage all voters to do as I did. Make every effort to meet the candidates, or contact them in some way to share your thoughts and to hear their vision for the district and if all else fails, go online to candidate websites and get a read on each of those seeking your support.

I am supporting Jess Deutsch and Beth Behrend for PPS Board and I’m asking those reading this letter to do the same. Jess Deutsch’s educational work, background, and expertise as well as Beth Behrend’s problem solving skills and legal insight will be major assets to what in my mind has been an effective Board. This endorsement means that I will work very hard to assist these candidates, but it also means after they are elected, I will remind Jess and Beth about their commitments and the hard work that still needs to be done. Princeton High School and to some degree all Princeton Public Schools are the best in the state. The challenge for these candidates and the district is to make sure that all students achieve and succeed to be successful contributors to society. I believe that Jess Deutsch and Beth Behrend are the best people to help us get there and therefore are my choice for the Princeton Public Schools Board of Education.

Blessings and Putting kids First, JOHN BaIlEy Highway 27

To the Editor: We are writing this letter in support of Beth Behrend, a candidate for the Princeton Public Schools’ Board of Education (BOE).

We know Beth primarily through our shared work to establish and improve PPS school gardens and garden-related curriculum. Beth was a leader in the garden movement for several years while she served as Riverside Elementary School’s garden coordinator and PTO president, and also as a board member of the Princeton School Gardens Cooperative. She was instrumental in finding creative ways to fund school gardens and played a major role in helping to integrate the gardens into the school curriculum.

Beth also created and directed the Healthy Children/ Healthy Planet community fundraiser for the Riverside school gardens. This annual event raised $50,000 over five years and brought together many different constituencies to work toward a common goal: improving the health and education of children.

In addition to her garden work, Beth was a founding trustee and secretary of the New Jersey League of Conservation Voters Education Fund, currently serves as secretary of the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association, and has actively supported many local organizations that benefit our schools and our students.

As her record suggests, Beth has long been a passionate advocate for children and sustainability. She is highly dedicated, thoughtful, and meticulous. She respects diverse viewpoints, collaborates skillfully, and always thinks about the big picture. Her deep experience as a volunteer leader, as well as her legal training and career, make her an excellent candidate. The Princeton community would benefit tremendously from having her join the BOE.

go to the polls and vote! We have to make sure our voices are heard and that we elect officials — legislators, sheriffs, freeholders, council members, board of education members — who truly represent us.

However, in this age of abundant data, it can be surprisingly difficult to learn who is running for office, and what their positions are on the issues. Do you want to contact your local candidates to ask their positions on issues they have not spoken about publicly? Good luck with that! All the state provides is the candidates’ names and postal addresses.

The Good Government Coalition of New Jersey (ggcnj.org), a new non-partisan grassroots group that grew up in Princeton, recently launched a campaign to correct this problem.

GGCNJ created a database designed to provide information on all statewide candidates (and many local candidates) running this year. Candidates are asked to state their views on a list of good government measures and supply personal contact information (email, phone, website, social media) as well as biographical information (occupation, education, previous public service). This information is then posted on the site so voters can make informed decisions.

GGCNJ is calling on all candidates to help by providing their information to the database — every candidate should want informed voters! (Email info@ggcnj.org to get an electronic survey form.) We also encourage all citizens to make use of this database before they cast their ballots.

GGCNJ’s broader mission is to strengthen democracy in New Jersey by working with residents across our state to bring greater transparency, accountability, and participation to our state and local governments. The Coalition has identified several areas in which the current political system in New Jersey is broken. Too much power is concentrated in too few hands. This leads to a system that is dominated by those with money and power who shape decisions in backroom deals, leaving the public shut out of the process. GGCNJ aims to ensure that government, at both the state and local levels, works on behalf of all of us.

On Sunday, November 12 at 2 p.m., “Suppers for Healing” founder Dorothy Mullen will speak on “Food and Mood: How changes in the diet help reduce the sy mptoms of A D/ HD in children, teens, and adults ( w it h inst r uct ions ! ) ,” at All Saints’ Church, 16 All Saints’ Road.

Parents of children with ADHD are likely to observe poor focus, mental fatigue, mood swings, and sleep issues. For adults in relationships with ADHD loved ones, the same symptoms exist.

Mullen will be sharing the foundational message of the Suppers Program: The brain is typically the first organ to respond to poor nutrition.

Therefore, how a person feels, thinks, and attends are data which can be used to sort out which foods the child or adult needs for focus and for life. Participants will learn about nutritional harm reduction and how to get the family on board for eating foods that improve mood, behavior, and attention.

Mullen is the founder of The Suppers Programs, a nonprofit organization operating in central New Jersey since 2005. She has a master’s degree in counseling from The College of New Jersey, where her focus was on addictions and recovery. She is committed to finding solutions to some of the most serious and costly health problems facing Americans: health challenges related to diet and lifestyle. Her interest is in blood sugar and how it relates to mood chemistry and addictive behaviors.

Mullen is also dedicated to garden-based education. She was the garden artist in residency at Riverside School for 13 years and continues to teach gardening workshops in her home garden. She is committed to spreading the message of diet and lifestyle changes that can delay, prevent, or reverse health and mental health problems that are biochemically related to blood sugar regulation and poor mood chemistry. These include diabetes, obesity, problems with alcohol, depression, anxiety, attention, and some learning issues.

Lempert said she called the DOT the morning after the accident and reminded them that this was something the town has requested in the past. “They were interested in seeing a copy of the police report,” she said. “I think that will be done sometime this or next week. The last time they looked at [the issue], they rejected it. But they didn’t say absolutely no, so I think this resolution will help.”

Ms. L emp er t s aid she heard from many concerned members of the public following the accident. It is important to remember that “… this signal is not under the municipality’s control, because Nassau Street is a state road,” she added.

Labyrinth Hosts Author Of “Veronica and the Volcano”

Geoffrey Cook will be at Labyrinth on Saturday, October 28, at 3 p.m. to talk about his book for children grades four-six, Veronica and the Volcano.

Ten-year-old Veronica lives in a high-tech, gadget-filled house on the slope of an active volcano. Eruptions are a part of life, as she watches from the protective shields of her home. W hen she goes on a quest to find rare white volcanic pearls on the far side of Mount Mystery, she leads her father, her best friend Maddy, and her friend’s dad, Captain John,

into a series of adventures.

Kirkus Reviews calls it “An exciting, well-paced adventure tale with an appealingly game young heroine. The scenes of danger and escape are taut and well-handled, with Cook providing lots of cool tech (ice tires!). Shamsey’s beautiful, dy namic full-color illustrations do a great job helping to tell the story.”

Geoffrey Cook started telling Veronica and the Volcano stories to pass the time with his daughter Madeline on the 25-minute drive to school every morning. She enjoyed his stories, so he wrote them down. Cook is the CEO and cofounder of The Meet Group, and previously founded EssayEdge and ResumeEdge from a Harvard dorm. He runs five mobile apps with 10 million monthly users, so he is always thinking of new ways to use technology to engage a global audience.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

THEATER REVIEW

The Pennington Players Present “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”; Musical Is Based on Victor Hugo’s Novel, Uses Songs from the Disney Film

T

he Pennington Players are presenting The Hunchback of Notre Dame at the Kelsey Theatre. Because the musical contains adult themes and violence, the theater’s website emphasizes that it is “not recommended for children.” For audiences 13 and older, however, this writer enthusiastically recommends the show.

Composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz have adapted their score from Disney’s 1996 animated film. The book is by Peter Parnell, based on Victor Hugo’s 1831 novel Notre-Dame de Paris; the film’s screenplay; and the libretto by ]ames Lapine for a 1999 Berlin production, Der Glöckner Von Notre Dame. This version of the show premiered at La Jolla Playhouse in 2014, and was presented at the Paper Mill Playhouse in 2015.

Audiences in the Princeton area should be grateful that Disney Theatricals licensed the show for performance, instead of transferring the Paper Mill production to Broadway.

Skillfully directed by Frank Ferrara, the Pennington Players have presented a production that has the polish that one would expect in a Broadway theater.

The Hugo novel was a somewhat unorthodox subject for a Disney animated feature.

Although it was not unprecedented for the studio to venture into serious territory, the Disney brand still carried audience expectations as to content. Changes were made to make the story more family-friendly. Three silly gargoyles were added for comic relief, and the ending was rewritten to make it uplifting. To avoid religious controversy, the villainous Frollo became a judge rather than the archdeacon of the cathedral, and a kindly, unnamed archdeacon was added.

The stage adaptation is more faithful to the novel. The gargoyles have been cut, though Quasimodo, whose speech is now slurred, has imaginary conversation with statues in the cathedral. Frollo is once again the archdeacon.

Clopin, the narrator, explains that Frollo and his brother Jehan were sheltered at Notre Dame as orphans. Jehan was expelled for bringing Florika, a gypsy woman, into his room. Meanwhile, Frollo rose through the ranks of the priesthood. Florika died of the pox; Jehan, dying of the same disease, begged Frollo to care for their baby. Frollo initially planned to kill the deformed baby but took him in, deciding that he was a test from God. Twenty years later, Frollo complains to Quasimodo about having to attend the Feast of Fools, an annual street festival. Quasimodo offers to accompany him for his protection, but Frollo warns him that he will be despised for his deformities. After Frollo leaves, Quasimodo imagines the statues encouraging him to attend the festival. As he dreams of leaving the cathedral, Quasimodo sings “Out There.”

To Clopin, Andrew Timmes brings a smooth tenor. By turns impish and reflective, he infuses his narration with an excited intensity.

The choir is excellent, as is a performance by soprano soloist Rachel Benoit. The ensemble infuses choreographer Rachel Tovar’s sensual dances, particularly for the Feast of Fools sequence, with raucous energy.

The set, designed and built by Bryan Schendlinger, and painted by Emily Russilino, establishes a solemn mood. Scene changes are avoided; in effect, we never leave the cathedral. Props, such as the altar and a curtain, are placed center stage to indicate changes of setting. Vicki Kaiser’s lighting provides the illusion of stained glass windows, and enhances the sense of danger in other scenes.

Costume designer Sally Sohor effectively evokes the period and mood of the show.

Quasimodo’s green tunic recalls the animated film; a comparatively subdued color palette is employed for the other costumes. An exception is Esmeralda’s bright, sinuous outfit.

Frollo is given two robes: a white robe for his false piety, and a glittering red one he wears when his actions are driven by his lust for Esmeralda.

Of course, in musical theater there is a substantial catalogue of shows in which the protagonists’ physical appearance causes them to be outcasts, and complicates their romantic hopes. The Phantom of the Opera is an obvious example. Menken composed the music for the Disney animated movie Beauty and the Beast, as well as the subsequent stage musical and live-action film. It was Schwartz’s idea to adapt Wicked for the stage, and he wrote the music and lyrics for that show.

However, there is room for The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Themes of piety, psychological manipulation, and bigotry are examined in a compelling way. Parnell has found a balance between using narration to hurry through stretches of plot, and giving the audience time to savor moments that are crucial to the characters. His book is a deft synthesis of Hugo’s novel and the Disney film.

Menken’s score is one of his finest. Stirring, harmonically sophisticated choral numbers establish the cathedral setting. The intensity of the choral writing is leavened by melodic ballads, and by energetic, rhythmically inventive production numbers.

As a lyricist, Schwartz is deft at conveying stretches of plot that might take too long if they were established through dialogue. Quasimodo’s numbers, especially “Out There,” and “Made of Stone,” display Schwartz’s gift at accentuating character development.

“THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME”: Performances are underway for the Pennington Playe wish we could leave you a ers’ production of “The Hunchback of Notre Dame.” Directed by Frank Ferrara, the musical moral, like a trinket you hold runs through October 29 at the Kelsey Theatre.

Written for the film, “Out There” is a fine example of an “I want” song, in which protagonists sing about their wishes. As Schwartz’s lyrics describe Quasimodo’s isolation “safe behind these windows and these parapets of stone,” Menken’s melody is deliberately rangebound. When Quasimodo dreams of venturing “out there, strolling by the Seine,” the music becomes more adventurous, employing larger melodic intervals.

As Quasimodo, C.J. Carter delivers an outstanding performance of “Out There,” capturing the character’s curiosity and thirst for connection with a community. His restlessness is underlined by the choreography and blocking, as he paces back and forth across the stage.

He exuberantly swings from a ladder, in one of a few overt visual references to the film.

Phoebus, the captain of the guard, arrives at the festival and flirts with the women. Frollo admonishes him that there is no time for “Rest and Recreation,” as they must work to rid Paris of lowlife. Esmeralda and the other gypsies dance to the “Rhythm of the Tambourine.” Quasimodo, who has sneaked out to attend, is crowned the King of Fools. He is humiliated until Esmeralda intervenes. Frollo orders the ensuing riot to be stopped, and extracts a promise from Quasimodo that he will never leave the bell tower again.

Later Esmeralda follows Quasimodo into Notre Dame, and prays that God will help the less fortunate. Frollo tells her that Quasimodo is his responsibility, and offers to give her religious instruction. Esmeralda refuses him, noticing the lustful way he looks at her. “Your soul is so unclean you can’t imagine goodness in others,” he snarls.

To Esmeralda, Alicia Rose Dishon brings the mixture of compassion and worldliness required by her role. She brings an earthy sensuality to her dance in “Rhythm of the Tambourine,” and infuses “God Help the Outcasts” with a subtle undercurrent of defiant

anger and frustration. Vocally, she caresses musical phrases with a pleasing vibrato.

Quasimodo rhapsodizes about Esmeralda’s kindness, dreaming of a romantic relationship with her. Frollo becomes aware of his own lust for her, praying that Saint Mary will save him from “Hellfire.”

Frollo asks King Louis XI for authority to protect the citizens of Paris from a gypsy witch. His request granted, he orders Phoebus to burn down a brothel known for hiding gypsies. When Phoebus refuses, Frollo orders his arrest. Esmeralda intervenes; in the ensuing commotion Frollo stabs Phoebus and frames Esmeralda for it. Esmeralda and Phoebus escape.

Gregory Newton, a commanding baritone, gives a layered performance that permits Frollo to be a more complex character than he is in the film. Compared to his relentlessly sinister counterpart in the film, the stage Frollo is more dangerous, because his cruelty has a veneer of goodness. Newton’s performance of “Hellfire” makes clear that Frollo is surprised by his spiritual self-conflict.

Scott Johnson also has a rich baritone voice, but his Phoebus provides the required contrast to Frollo. His exuberant performance of “Rest and Recreation” is an early highlight.

Esmeralda gives Quasimodo a map to the Court of Miracles, a gypsy hideout, and begs him to hide the injured Phoebus. After she leaves, Frollo confers with a guard and blithely tells Quasimodo that Esmeralda can now be captured; Quasimodo and Phoebus flee to warn her.

Clopin and the other gypsies prepare to relocate. Phoebus asks Esmeralda to go with him; Quasimodo is heartbroken when they embrace and admit their love for each other.

Frollo arrives and orders that Phoebus and the gypsies be arrested; he thanks Quasimodo for leading him to the hideout.

MUSIC REVIEW

W

ith the opening of Princeton University’s Lewis Center for the Arts, there has been a new buzz of musical excitement in the community.

One of the core University ensembles settling into the new state-of-the-art facility is the Princeton University Orchestra, which opened its 2017-18 season this past Friday and Saturday nights at Richardson Auditorium. Also celebrating conductor Michael Pratt’s 40th year leading the ensemble, the University Orchestra presented music of Mozart, Beethoven, and Mahler — works Pratt called “three sonic columns of sound” to usher in a “new era of music” at the University.

Pratt paid tribute to a piece he conducted his first year at Princeton by opening Friday night’s concert with Mozart’s Overture to The Magic Flute, which the orchestra also performed during the Lewis Center opening festival. Pratt took plenty of time with the dramatic opening chords, emphasizing the contrast between the traditional nobility and populist Singspiel style of the overture. Throughout the piece, violins were particularly clean, and accents were well placed. Light and clear wind solos were played by flutist Queenie Luo and oboist Ethan Petno.

The concert seemed to follow a path of symphonic development, beginning with the elegant simplicity of Mozart, passing through the stretched boundaries of Beethoven, and finally arriving at Mahler, the peak of revolutionary orchestral composition. Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major, the second work on the program, diverged from the instrumental concerti of the time by beginning with the soloist, rather than the orchestra. Guest pianist Geoffrey Burleson, a member of the Princeton music faculty, played the opening passages in stately and hymnlike fashion. The orchestra answered the soloist well, bringing out accents in the music. Burleson demonstrated a particularly fluid left hand in long running passages, playing a dramatic yet effortless first movement cadenza which was almost a sonata in itself. Keyboard agility was the hallmark of this concerto, and Burleson was consistent in maintaining a solid interplay with the orchestra. Pratt and Burleson were always in tandem, with the orchestra and soloist perfectly timed in the closing movement.

Gustav Mahler was most renowned for

pushing symphonic form to the outer limits of orchestration and musical effect, but his compositional roots were in traditional Romantic forms. Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 in D Major was conventional in its four movements, but was infused with music from Mahler’s other works as well as traditional popular songs. The University Orchestra expanded to full forces onstage for this work, and began the symphony with an almost imperceptible drone in the violins contrasting with wind solos and a crisp trio of offstage trumpets. The “Days of Youth” referenced in the first movement featured bird calls effectively depicted by wind solos played by flutist Nicholas Ioffreda and oboist Ethan Petno.

The more than one dozen celli brought a bit of spring to the music, aided by subtle and clean horns.

The third movement featured variations on the tune “Frère Jacques,” altered in Mahler’s inimitable way and introduced as a melancholy solo by double bassist Megan Chung. Played by various soloists against an ominous and soft timpani part, the tune built in a haunting manner, depicting a hunter’s funeral and the animals following in procession. A quintet of flutes was especially effective in providing a chilling version of the tune, and a Klezmer-like oboe solo was provided

by Petno.

The closing movement, marked “stormily agitated,” began with full bombastic orchestral sound, contrasted with a sweet musical effect from a trio of horns. Horn calls were particularly clean throughout the movement, as the music recalled themes from earlier movements and the orchestra brought the work to a strong and decisive close. he path of this opening concert by the University Orchestra, from unassuming and graceful to expansive and revolutionary, seemed to mirror the evolution of musical performance on the University campus over Pratt’s 40-year tenure, with the crowning jewel of the Lewis Center offering vast new possibilities. If physical surroundings inspire musical performance, the new Center, combined with the traditional music facilities on campus, will allow the musicians of the University Orchestra to reach new heights.

Westminster Symphonic Choir Performs “Belshazzar’s Feast”

MACHINES: How Do They Learn and Where are They Headed?

Artificial intelligence and machine learning have taken the world by storm and are expected to be significant forces in industrial innovation going forward. Like any new technology, artificial intelligence and machine learning will have positive, as well as negative effects.

Media and television shows speculate about a future with machines taking over, but is that a reality?

Sanjeev Arora, Visiting Professor in the School of Mathematics, and Richard Zemel, Visitor in the School of Mathematics, will give brief talks about the field of machine learning and its major technical challenges followed by a panel discussion moderated by Robbert Dijkgraaf, Director and Leon Levy Professor.

Sanjeev Arora Visiting Professor, School of Mathematics Institute for Advanced Study

The Westminster Symphonic Choir, conducted by Joe Miller, will perform William Walton’s choral masterwork Belshazzar’s Feast on Sunday, October 29 at 7:30 p.m. in the Princeton University Chapel. They will be joined by Princeton University organist Eric Plutz and Westminster faculty member Mark Moliterno, bass-baritone.

Belshazzar’s Feast focuses on the scene in the Bible’s Book of Daniel in which, at King Belshazzar’s Feast, a hand appears and prophetically writes a doom-laden message on the wall. Thanks to its pulsating drive and barbaric splendor, Walton’s searing oratorio has been compared to Orff’s Carmina Burana, and today it is regarded as one of the finest British large-scale choral works.

Tickets for this performance are $20 for adults and $15 for students and seniors. They are available online at www.rider.edu/ arts or through the Westminster box office at (609) 9212663. Learn more about this performance at www.rider. edu/arts.

Sheryl Lee Is Laura Palmer in David Lynch’s “Fire Walk With Me”

W

riting about Twin Peaks in May of 2014, I made special mention of Angelo Badalamenti’s score, how from the first note, the mood created by his music is warm, mellow, musing, inviting, dreamily beautiful, with a subtle undercurrent of menace and dread that comes into play whenever the scene shifts to the interior of Laura Palmer’s home. Above all the music is about Laura Palmer, whose murder is what sets the machinery of the Twin Peaks project in motion with the simplistic but effective tag-line Who killed Laura Palmer? and the answer delivered toward the end of the series’ second season: her father.

What Badalamenti’s music says is that no matter how sordid her secret life or the circumstances of her murder, Laura was adored, a darling of the community, its most beautiful child. The emotional chemistry of the score and the show is articulated by Laura’s best friend Donna when she says “It’s like I’m having the most beautiful dream and the most terrible nightmare all at once.”

Bringing Laura to Life Explaining the motive behind the fulllength film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992) made in the aftermath of the flawed second season of the series, Lynch said: “I was in love with the character of Laura Palmer and her contradictions: radiant on the surface but dying inside. I wanted to see her live, move and talk.”

On its release, Fire Walk With Me was roundly reviled, allegedly booed and jeered at Cannes (not so, witnesses say), and given a rating of 28 (“generally unfavorable”) on metacritic. Because of its sheer cinematic brilliance and Sheryl Lee’s bravura performance as Laura Palmer, however, the picture deserves serious reassessment, a process underway with Criterion’s release of a 25th anniversary DVD, reviewed last week in Cinapse as “David Lynch’s underrated masterpiece that crucially redefines Laura Palmer.”

In a 1995 essay, novelist David Foster Wallace considers “the transformation of Laura from object/occasion to subject/ person” as “the most morally ambitious thing a Lynch movie has ever tried to do.” The late author of Infinite Jest suggests that Fire Walk With Me “required complex and contradictory and probably impossible things from Ms. Lee,” who “deserved an Oscar just for showing up and trying.”

Sheryl Lee does more than show up and try: she devotes herself to the role with an emotionally unstinting depth of passion and commitment.

“He Hit a Nerve!”

With the media still processing the aftershocks of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, Lee’s recent comments about the challenge of playing Laura Palmer have

a certain resonance. “What I see now,” she tells Entertainment Weekly, referring to Laura’s dilemma, “is all of the signs, and no one reaching out to help her. Every single day that happens to the girls in our country, in real life.”

As for the critical treatment of Fire Walk, the German-born actress says, “I know that different works of art often ignite controversial opinions …. It’s knowing, ‘Oh wow, he hit a nerve! What is that nerve? What is that undercurrent? What is that shadow aspect that’s being mirrored back, that is uncomfortable?’”

Asked about the problematic ending of Showtime’s Twin Peaks: The Return, which ended its 18-episode run early last month, she admits, “ I ’m s t i l l in t he u n known. And I’m not uncomfortable with the unknown.”

Laura Palmer herself couldn’t have said i t b e t t e r.

Or David Ly nch, for that matter.

Clearly, he found his perfect Laura in Sheryl Lee. Tough Love When Lynch says he was in love with Laura, he doesn’t mean it casually. His love is an inspirational and unrelenting force. As much as he may adore and delight in his character, he subjects her to horror; in that sense, he’s the demon inhabiting Laura’s father (Ray Wise), for it’s Lynch and Lynch alone who can create and destroy her, and then lift her to heaven.

Sitting up till after 4 a.m. watching Fire Walk With Me for the second time in two days, I did my best to keep track of Laura’s movements. When she enters, smiling and beautiful, on her way to school, Badalamenti’s theme enters with her and if you love Twin Peaks, there’s no way not to be moved; the same thing happens when Dale Cooper finally comes awake as himself in The Return: the music marks the moment.

On her way to school Laura meets up with her soulmate and best friend Donna (Moira Kelly, who replaced Lara Flynn Boyle). The rapport between the two is absolutely convincing. You think they must have bonded as children. For all the erotic charisma that makes Laura devastatingly attractive to males of all ages, including boyfriends like hothead Bobby Briggs (Dana Ashbrook) and secret lover biker James Hurley (James Marshall), Laura’s true love, albeit platonic, is Donna. But at school, the first thing Laura do e s is to duck into t h e to i l e t ; the prom queen, whose portrait sits in a place of honor among the trophies in a display case, snorts cocaine.

Next t hing we see, she enters with a towel around her naked body and has sex with James even as Bobby stands on the other side of the wall mouthing kisses at her photograph.

When James gets tender, she gets cold ; when he says “You always hurt the one you love,” she says, “You mean the ones you pity.” When Bobby pounces on her (“Hey where were you for the last hour?”), she cuts him with a lie, “I was standing right behind you but you’re too dumb to turn around.” Then, when he moves in, the tough guy, as if he’s going to hit her, she says “Get lost” and melts him with a smile. It’s a smile for the ages. Lee’s star quality is all over it. Bobby backs off, grinning, shaken, unmanned, gasping “Love you, baby,” as she walks away.

Next we see Laura and Donna lounging in Donna’s living room. When Donna wonders whether “if you were falling in space … you would slow down, or … go faster and faster,” Laura says, “Faster and faster. And for a long time you wouldn’t feel anything. And then you’d burst into fire. Forever …. And the angels wouldn’t help you. Because they’ve all gone away.” This is Sheryl Lee speaking Lynch’s language with perfect pitch.

At home Laura climbs the stairs under the sinister ceiling fan Twin Peaks faithful will remember from the first season.

In her bedroom she pulls out her diary and lounges on her bed reading it, at once girlish and erotic. Pages have been torn out. The demon’s work. She drives off to see her shut-in confidant Harold (Lenny Von Dohlen), to tell him about the missing pages, and in that scene, another virtuoso piece of acting, she’s hysterical, terrified, tender, tearful, and then possessed, her teeth bared, face to face with her ever confused, ever sympathetic friend as she utters in a voice not hers, “Fire … walk … with … me!”

If you’re watching this scene between 3 and 4 in the morning, you know that “hair-raising” is no mere figure of speech.

But what you feel most of all is admiration for the actress.

Beauty and Horror Laura’s fate is on the wall of her bedroom: a framed picture showing a halfopen doorway, the stuff of nightmares, nothing but horror is going to come through that doorway, and yet she’s hung it there next to a quaint little scene of children at a table set for a meal being presided over by a beautiful angel. It’s an old-fashioned image she’s grown up with and found consoling, a benign presence.

On her last night when the angel disappears, you recall her words to Donna “and the angels have all gone away.”

As Laura enters the last hour of her life, in a scene lit with a red glow, she encounters the seer of Twin Peaks, otherwise known as the Log Lady, who tells her, “When this kind of fire starts, it is very hard to put out. The tender boughs of innocence burn first, and the wind rises, and then all goodness is in jeopardy.”

Audiences at showings of this film years ago may have laughed at the over-the-top Lynchian poetry of the scene and perhaps laughed even louder at the denouement following horrific visions of rape and murder, with Laura sitting in Lynch’s alternate reality, the Red Room, watching in joy and amazement as the angel rises before her, and she’s smiling, then laughing, to see that she’s the angel. t’s Lynch’s vision, the beautiful dream on the other side of the nightmare, and for the magnitude of the moment even Badalamenti’s music isn’t enough.

Instead, Lynch uses Cherubini’s Requiem in C Minor. And as much as the confused, dazed, angry audiences who came to Fire Walk With Me expecting another Twin Peaks may have mocked the spectacle, some may have been moved in spite of themselves to realize that the exhausted woman on the screen is laughing and crying because she knows she has just given the performance of her life.

CINEMA REVIEW

The Mountain Between Us

Plane Crash Survivors Bond While Battling the Elements

B

ride-to-be Alex Martin (Kate Winslet) is anxious to return home where she and her fiancé (Dermot Mulroney) are scheduled to be married in the morning. The only reason the dedicated photojournalist was in Idaho so close to her wedding was because of her sense of duty to cover a demonstration by skinheads and neo-Nazis. Elsewhere, in the same airline terminal, Dr. Ben Bass (Idris Elba) is just as eager to get to Denver because he’s urgently needed to perform life-saving surgery on a critically-ill child.

Imagine their frustration when they learn that their commercial flight has been canceled due to a forecast of inclement weather. The two strangers commiserate over their plight and decide to charter a private plane.

Unfortunately, their pilot (Beau Bridges) has a fatal heart attack and the plane crashes on top of a snow capped mountain. Their cell phones are useless and Ben — with broken ribs, and Alex — with a fractured leg, are stranded in the mountains far from civilization.

The Mountain Between Us is a harrowing tale of sur-

vival based on the Charles Martin bestseller of the same name. The visually captivating production is superficially reminiscent of The Revenant.

The movie is mostly about the protagonists’ battle against the elements when they are lost in the frigid wilderness and are miles from civilization. During their perilous trek they negotiate their way through a treacherous gauntlet that has cougars, slippery cliffs, and lakes with thin ice, to name a few.

The film also has a romantic angle, because Ben and Alex gradually grow fond of each other during their ordeal. As a result, the burning question becomes whether these feelings will continue once they’re saved. After all, he’s married and she’s engaged.

After Making Impressive Turnaround Last Winter, PU Men’s Hockey Aiming for a Special Campaign

W

hen the Princeton University men’s hockey team started the 2016-17 campaign by going 0-6-1, it looked like the Tigers were headed for another rough winter.

After all, Princeton had won a total of just nine games (946-6) over the previous two seasons.

Instead, the Tigers caught fire, going 13-7-2 over the rest of the regular season with wins over seven top-20 teams to write one of the best turnaround stories in college hockey.

That surge earned the Tigers home ice for the opening round of the ECAC Hockey playoffs against Colgate, and they made the Baker Rink fans proud. After losing the opener to the Raiders, Princeton scored a last second goal to force overtime in the second game and ended up winning 4-3. Princeton then won the clincher 2-1.

While Princeton got swept 2-0 by No. 6 Union in the ECACH quarters to finish 1516-3, things were definitely headed in the right direction with most of its top stars coming back.

As the Tigers have hit the ice to prepare for their 2017-18 campaign, which starts when they host Holy Cross on October 29, Princeton head coach Ron Fogarty is seeing carryover from that taste of success.

“It is going well, it has been a

continuum of last season,” said Fogarty, who is in his fourth season guiding the Tigers.

“The style of play is intact now. The guys had a really good summer of preparation and it is indicative of the play early on in practice here. The guys are looking stronger; they are moving very well around the ice.”

Princeton features a strong one-two punch at forward in juniors Ryan Kuffner (19 goals and 17 assists in 2016-17) and Max Veronneau (11 goals, 24 assists).

“Both are looking good, they are very good players,” said Fogarty of the pair, who both hail from Ottawa, Ontario and played juniors together before coming to Princeton.

“They complement each other when they are on the ice; they make each other better.”

The Tigers have firepower to complement Kuffner and Veronneau with the return of sophomore Jackson Cressey (7 goals, 26 assists) senior co-captain Eric Robinson (13 goals, 8 assists), senior David Hallisey (13 goals, 17 assists), junior Alex Riche (7 goals, 10 assists), and sophomore Liam Grande (3 goals, 2 assists).

“The good thing is we don’t have to rely on just those two with Cressey, Robinson, Hallisey, and even guys like Grande,” said Fogarty.

“He had a great summer, he looks stronger coming back from an injury that prevented

330 COLD SOIL ROAD PRINCETON, NJ 08540

him from playing in the majority of the second half.”

Freshman forwards Neil Doef, Colin Tonge, Jake Paganelli, and Luke Keenan figure to add more depth to the attack.

“They are learning the systems,” said Fogarty. “They are going to be great complement players to our lineup.”

Junior Josh Teves (4 goals, 21 assists) and sophomore Derek Topatigh (2 goals, 7 assists) give Princeton a great pair to lead the defensive unit.

“Josh and Derek are looking good,” said Fogarty. “Josh is a great leader as an underclassman and provides so much of an offensive spark. Derek had a great freshman year and we expect a lot from him on the offensive side of the game and helping the forwards.”

Fogarty is expecting a big contribution from a pair of veterans, co-captain Joe Grabowski (2 goals, 5 assists) and Matt Nelson (2 goals, 4 assists).

“We are looking for a great senior campaign from one of captains, Joe Grabowski, and Matt Nelson,” said Fogarty.

“You still lean on the seniors for the leadership and the knowledge and experience of the game. Now they have had the experience and a small taste of winning.”

Freshmen Mark Paolini, Reid Yochim, and Matthew Thorn will get a taste of action along the blue line.

“All three are going to be playing,” said Fogarty. “They are looking fit. The transition from junior to the collegiate level is tougher on defense with the style that we play but they are grasping the concepts and our philosophy.”

The biggest question mark surrounding the Tigers is replacing graduated star Colton Phinney at goalie, who played in 33 games last year and ended his career as the program’s all-time saves leader.

Senior Ben Halford (1.63 goals against and .957 save percentage in three games last season), junior Austin Shaw, and freshman Ryan Ferland are vying for that spot.

“Ben has the most experience although it is minimal,” said Fogarty.

“Both returning goalies improved. Shaw hasn’t been tested in a game scenario, so he played the majority of the University of the Western Ontario scrimmage (a 6-4 win on October 14). He looked pretty good. Ryan Ferland is having a great preseason here. I thought he played well in his portion of the Western Ontario game.”

At this point, Fogarty is still considering his options. “It is wide open; it is definitely not going to be one guy leading the way as we have had with Colton but that is a great thing too,” said Fogarty.

“It will force their standard of play to keep elevating and keep challenging each other in practice. If someone gets hot we are going to run with him. I am not hesitant to put any one of the three in there.”

“Going into our fourth year as a staff, the team is starting to come together as a whole,” said Fogarty.

“I believe the team can be very hard to play against and we can win in different ways.

It is a team that can grind it out down low or we can open it up and have a track meet game.”

Fogarty is looking forward to utilizing that flexibility in the opener against Holy Cross.

“It is just getting better at what we are doing, once we see what Holy Cross is doing after the first period, hopefully we will be right there in the game and we can make adjustments to counter,” said Fogarty.

“When we do counter, it is the things that we do well.

We are not going to chase the game, we are going to keep attacking the game and doing what we believe will make us successful.”

In Fogarty’s view, Princeton is primed to enjoy a lot of success this winter.

“I think we have the chance to do something special this year, but we just have to make sure that we worry about today and just getting better,” said Fogarty.

“We gave up a lot of shots again last year; we just have to get better in our defensive zone. I know we can score goals but we have to make sure that we continue to keep the puck out of the net by playing solid defense. Our guys know how to win now.”

While Bob Surace liked what he was seeing from his Princeton University football team on the practice field, he knows that doesn’t guarantee success on game day.

“I really felt the last couple of weeks that we have really practiced well,” said Princeton head coach Surace.

“It doesn’t always hold true that you are going to play that way. I think more often that not as a coach you feel a lot better when the guys are moving on the field the way they are; we are lining up right, we are in the right responsibilities, and we are not making bad mistakes. We are executing at a really high level at those practices; it gives you a better sense of confidence.”

Last Friday evening at Harvard, Princeton executed at a very high level, building a 31-10 halftime lead on the way to a 52-17 rout of the Crimson as it improved to 5-1 overall and 2-1 Ivy League.

It was Princeton’s biggest win over the Crimson since a 45-6 victory over the Harvard on November 11, 1967.

Senior quarterback and tr i- captain Chad Kanof f showed that practice can almost make perfect as he completed his first 21 passes on the way to going 31for-35 for 421 yards and two touchdowns.

“I felt like the ball never hit the ground,” said Surace of Kanoff, who was named as the STATS FCS National Offensive Player of the Week and the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Week in t he wake of his per formance, which amounted to the eighth-most single-game

passing yards in Princeton history.

“We get practices like that.

We have seen it in training camp. We have seen it during the week. But that was something else to see it in a game against a defense that is as good as their defense is.”

Noting that Quinn Epperley completed 29 straight passes in a win over Cornell in 2013 and that John Lovett produced some memorable efforts last year on the way to being an All-America honoree and Bushnell Cup Ivy Offensive Player of the Year, Surace put Kanoff’s outing Friday in that pantheon of special performances.

“You recognize how fortunate you are to have these guys on your squad,” said Surace.

“They are fun to coach.

You just love watching guys develop and get better and they are getting better.”

Junior receiver Jesper Horsted seems be getting better and better, producing a career game against Harvard, catching 13 passes for 246 yards and two touchdowns; the 246 yards is the thirdmost in Princeton history, trailing only Michael Lerch (370 ) and Derek Graham (278). Showing his versatility, Horsted threw a twoyard TD pass to Tiger Bech in the third quarter.

“Because Jesper does so many other things, including baseball, he is going to be a little bit behind in the beginning of the year,” said Surace.

“He does his best to catch up. We saw that last year in the second half of the year, he really took off as he got more comfortable. I think

KAN DO: Princeton University quarterback Chad Kanoff prepares to unload the ball in recent action. Last Friday at Harvard, senior star and tri-captain Kanoff enjoyed a career game, completing his first 21 passes on the way to going 31-for-35 for 421 yards and two touchdowns as Princeton defeated Harvard 52-17. Kanoff was named as the STATS FCS National Offensive Player of the Week and the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Week in the wake of his performance, which amounted to the eighth-most single-game passing yards in Princeton history.

we are starting to see that this year.”

Surace tipped his hat to Princeton’s battle-tested offensive line, which dominated in the trenches to lay the foundation for the rout.

“The passing game goes hand in hand with the line,” said Surace. “If the quarterback can’t throw well, it doesn’t matter how long you protect him and run routes.

When you add really good protection and really crisp routes and with the way the quarterback was throwing it, you get pass efficiency that is off-the-charts high.”

The Tiger defense had a really good night as well, bending but not breaking in thwarting a high-powered Crimson offense.

“The strength of their offense has been the running game; they have got really good runners and I thought we did a really great job,” said Surace, who got 10 tackles apiece from linebackers Thomas Johnson and John Orr against Harvard.

“Charlie Booker had 72 yards but he had to earn those yards. We gang tackled well and we didn’t give up the huge long run to him that he has been getting every week. When you look at the game tape, you have got to stop their running back and you have to stop their outside receivers, Adam Scot t and Justice Shelton-Moseley, who are so dynamic. If the other guys beat you, you tip your cap to them. Those guys did beat us a few times but we did really well once we got inside the red zone.”

Hav ing posted three straight wins and scored at least 50 points in each of those games, something that no Princeton team had done since 1890, in the wake of a tough 28-24 loss to Columbia on September 30, the Tigers are in a really good spot right now.

“I think our guys are doing a really good job of focusing on the play,” said Surace.

“In the Columbia game, I thought we played our hearts out. Our effort was great but we just had some momentary lack of focus on both sides of the ball where we gave up some big plays.”

Pr inceton w ill have to maintain that focus to come through with a win this Saturday night as it hosts a surging Cornell team that is 2-4 overall and 2-1 Ivy, having won two of its last three games after a 0-3 start.

“They beat Harvard; they are running the ball extremely well and their defense is playing well,” said Surace.

“It seems like after the first two games, they have completely flipped the script, changing their identity and their team. It seems to be working. We will have our work cut out for us; it will be a battle.”

With Sophomore Star Bullock Sparking Offense, PU Women’s Hockey Earns Ties With Providence It took a while for Carly Bullock to get rolling last winter in her debut season with the Princeton University women’s hockey team.

The highly touted forward from Eden Prairie, Minn. had just one goal in her first eight appearances for the Tigers. Once Bullock broke the ice, though, she emerged as one of the most productive players in the ECAC Hockey, ending up with 20 goals and 10 assists on the way to getting named as the league’s Rookie of the Year.

Last Friday as Princeton opened its 2017-18 campaign by hosting Providence, Bullock picked up where she left off at the end of last season.

Weaving through the Friar defense, Bullock scored 7:07 minutes into the contest to give Princeton a 1-0 lead. After Providence responded with a goal to make it 1-1, Bullock tallied again in the opening minute of the second period to put Princeton up 2-1. The Friars got an answered goal in the third period and the teams skated to a 2-2 tie through one overtime.

For Bullock, coming through on opening night came, in part, from an increased comfort level as a sophomore.

“Last year I got off to a bit of a slow start; it has definitely been easier this year to know what is going on,” said Bullock.

“Besides a game standpoint, even in practice, off ice and everything, having one year under my belt, it is just knowing how everything works. It has been super helpful.”

Bullock displayed her experience on the first goal as she adjusted on the fly.

“As I was making the move around the defender, the goalie was already out and I wasn’t expecting that,” recalled Bullock.

“I was expecting to have to make another move so it caught me off guard. I went to my backhand and had the whole net open.”

The second tally was partially the result of Bullock‘s connection with childhood friend and junior forward Karlie Lund, who got an assist on the goal along with MacKenzie Ebel.

“It was definitely just a full team effort; all five on the ice had a part in that goal,” said Bullock, who added another goal on Saturday as the Tigers and the Friars skated to another 2-2 tie to end their two-game set.

“Lundy and I have been playing together since I was 14. It is very nice to have someone who you are so familiar with playing with.

You always know where each other are, it definitely helps.”

In the third period, the Tigers were on their heels as they were two players down for nearly four minutes and were outshot 17-6 in the frame.

“They have their systems down and they know what to do; they even changed up some of the systems which we watched on video,” said Bullock, noting that Providence was playing in its seventh game of the season.

“It was tough to come out with the 5-on-3 and the

penalties. We tried to keep rolling with the punches but it gets hard, especially with only 10 forwards.”

Although Princeton was playing in its first game under new head coach Cara Morey, who succeeded Jeff Kampersal, now the head coach of the Penn State women’s team, Bullock said the change in leadership has gone smoothly.

“It has definitely been a very easy transition,” said Bullock, noting that Morey had already taken on a lot of responsibility in her previous role as assistant coach for the Tigers.

“We have become really close, players and coaches, which is really nice.”

Morey, for her part, was focused on her players, not her new role, as the Tigers took the ice on Friday.

“For me being head coach, I really didn’t think about that,” said Morey.

“Honestly it is about the girls and I am just trying to help them get what they want accomplished.”

In Morey’s view, Bullock can accomplish a lot this winter. “Bullock is a special player and when she gets that puck on her stick, she can make plays,” said Morey.

“She played big when we needed her to and we are going to need her to do that all year.”

The Tigers also got a big game from junior defenseman and assistant captain Stephanie Sucharda.

“Steph looked really great on defense,” added Morey.

“She handles the puck well, she makes really good decisions.”

Morey acknowledged that the Tigers didn’t make some good decisions in the third period as they played shorthanded for long stretches.

“When you take too many penalties, your top kids have to play on the penalty kill and then by the time you need them on 5-on-5, they are pretty spent,” said Morey, whose team starts ECAC Hockey play this weekend when it hosts Harvard on October 27 and Dartmouth on October 28. “We have to do a better job staying out of the box.”

While Morey was disappointed that Princeton didn’t hang on for the win, she had no qualms with the effort put in by her players.

“I am really happy with our compete level; we did run out of gas at the end, but it wasn’t from a lack of effort,” said Morey, noting the team’s five freshman forwards were up to speed as they made their college debut.

“It was just that we have a small bench. We know this is going to happen so rest and recovery is really important.

That we could match the pace right off the bat with a really strong Providence team is something to be proud of. They are getting a lot of votes for the top 10 and they look like a top 10 team right now.”

Hav ing benefited from the advice of veterans during her freshman campaign, Bullock is looking to return the favor.

“We have a great freshman class,” said Bullock. “Last year, with only two new forwards, we saw the older forwards taking us under their wing and teaching us the systems. It is nice to be able to do that this year.”

Princeton starts ECAC Hockey play this weekend when it hosts Harvard on October 27 and Dartmouth on October 28.

Even though Princeton High boys’ cross country star Will Hare was considered to be the favorite to win the Boys’ Varsity race at the Mercer County Championships last Friday, he needed a pep talk the night before to get his mind right.

“I was a little nervous last night and I was talking to my best friend, former and future teammate Alex Roth,” said senior Hare, who has followed in Roth ’s footsteps by committing to attend Penn and compete for its cross country and track program.

“He won this race last year and he was like, don’t worry about it, you the going to win this race; It meant a lot, it gave me a big boost.”

P rov i ng Rot h cor rec t, Hare went out on Friday afternoon and took first, clocking a time of 15:46.22 over the 5,000-meter course at Thompson Park in Jamesburg, edging junior teammate Acasio Pinheiro, who took second in 15:54.25.

H a r e’s s u p e r b e f f o r t helped PHS win its second straight team title as it had a score of 50 to edge runnerup Hopewell (58) and thirdplace finisher WW/P-South.

(71).

Hare and his teammates brought some extra motivation into the race as they were stinging from a recent loss to South in a regular season meet.

“We were not pleased with how we did last week, we

knew we needed to be better today,” said Hare.

“We had a great week of training; I can’t say enough about the effort the guys put in.”

The effort by Hare’s fellow seniors, Alex Ackerman (12th in 16:29.77), Jackson Donahue (18th in 16:47.81), and Nick Delaney (24th in 17:02.46), played a key role in PHS’s win.

“Alex, Jackson, and Nick were on varsity last year but they weren’t relied on, race in and race out,” said Hare.

“Their big thing was consistency this year and building to be the best athletes they could be. That is what they did all summer and that is what they showed today.”

For Hare, a big point of emphasis was following in Roth’s footsteps as a team captain.

“I knew I needed to step up big time, not just on the course but as a leader,” said Hare. “Hopefully now it is starting to pay off.”

PHS head coach Jim Smirk pointed to Hare’s leadership in the wake of the loss to WW/P-South as helping the Little Tigers refocus coming into the county meet.

“We had a team meeting and Will ran it,” said Smirk.

“He said that good teams lose sometimes. We have to know why, we have got to address it and we have to be better in a week and a half and that is exactly what

WILL TO WIN: Princeton High boys’ cross country runner Will Hare pulls away from the pack Boys’ Varsity race at the Mercer County Championships last Friday at Thompson Park in Jamesburg. Senior star and Penn-bound Hare placed first, covering the 5,000-meter course in a time of 15:46.22.

happened across the board.

Everyone ran better and Will ran very well.”

Junior star Pinheiro ran very well in pushing Hare.

“Acasio did a nice job; he really showed today that when he surrounds himself with a good team, he has the ability to do something that other people can’t,” said Smirk.

“That is what we provided him and we gave him that opportunity.”

The consistency of senior Ackerman has helped make PHS a very tough team to beat.

“Ackerman has been our rock all season, he is that guy you put on the line and it is look we know you are going to dominate other people’s threes,” said Smirk.

Junior Tucker Zullo produced one of his best performances of the season, placing 17th in 16:44.69.

“The breakout star of the day, no question, was Tucker,” said Smirk. “He put in the work this summer and he became a much better athlete, doing exactly what we asked him to do. He has been sitting in our five or six spot all season and today he was our four man.”

In w in n ing its s econd straight county crown, PHS displayed the steady ap proach that has made it one of the top programs in the state.

“We talk a lot about success in cross country being about consistency in races but also consistency year after year,” said Smirk.

“We have talked a lot about team culture and what it means to be a winner and how hard it is to do it over and over again. I think today we did a nice job for the first time this season. We really put that together. We are learning every day and are excited to do it.”

Smirk is excited to see PHS compete in the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional on November 4, coming off a historic 2016 campaign that saw the Little Tigers win the sectional crown and the state Group 4 title before culminating the fall by winning the Meet of Champions for the first time in program history.

“Last year we were the underdogs and it was ‘let’s just keep making some noise and see what happens,’” said Smirk.

“This year, we were taking on a different responsibility. The seniors are taking on more responsibility.

We don’t want the success to end this year either. We want it to go on next year and the year after that. They want to leave a legacy.”

In Hare’s view, this year’s squad has the chance to leave a very special legacy.

“We think we are one of the best teams, if not the best team, in the state,” said Hare. “We are going work to make sure that everybody else knows that too.”

PHS Girls’ Cross Country 2nd at County Meet, Lifted by Stellar Effort From Senior Star Taylor C om i ng i nto t h e fa l l, Chloe Taylor realized that she needed to set the pace for the Princeton High girls’ cross country team.

“I am the oldest now, before there used to be a lot of older kids there,” said senior Taylor. “There is more pressure on me to lead the team.”

Taylor has thrived under the pressure of being the squad’s frontrunner, producing a number of stellar performances, including a first place finish in the Girls’ Large School division at the Fall Classic on October 14.

Last Friday, she stepped up again, taking second in the Girls’ Varsity race in the Mercer County Championships at Thompson Park in Jamesburg, clocking a time of 19:41.22 over the 5,000-meter course, trailing winner Devon Hoernlein of Allentown by nearly 47 seconds.

Taylor’s heroics helped PHS take second in the team standings with a score of 91 behind champion W W/PSouth, which had 34.

In reflecting on the race, Taylor enjoyed her duel with Hoernlein. “I am really good friends with her; we are always very competitive with each other,” said Taylor.

“I didn’t have a time in mind, I was taking it out slow and looking to finish strong. It is pretty awesome being second, I came in fifth the last two years.”

Putting in some strong training in preparation for the fall has helped Taylor a big senior campaign.

“T he summer before I was hiking and running four miles a day,” said Taylor.

“This summer I could focus more on training, so, running 35 miles at most some weeks.”

PHS head coach Jim Smirk likes the focus Taylor has been displaying this season.

“Chloe and I had a sit down at the beginning of the summer and she did a nice job of articulating what her goals were and she has stayed consistently to that,” said Smirk.

“She has recognized what her deficiencies were as a competitor. She put in more mileage but in addition to that, she took a look at what am I doing strength-wise and how come I am getting beat late in races. She was able to dig deep and do that

kind of work day in and day out and stay healthy.”

Taylor’s good work as a leader has been a key factor in the progress shown by PHS this fall.

“She has been a great captain for us, I can’t even express it,” said Smirk. “She has had great role models over the years in Lou Miahle and Annie Walker. She has really taken those lessons and she has said hey this is our team, this is who we are, this is how we do these things. We had to sit some people today and it could have been very easy for her to put the brakes on and say I am not really going to go for it today. She has got some stuff to prove to herself and I think she is doing that every time she laces up.

Certainly we love having her on the team; we are going to miss her greatly.”

PHS got some great things in the county meet from junior newcomer Siena Moran, who took sixth with a time of 20:18.13, and senior Lauren Cleary, the 15th-place finisher in 21:06.63.

“Siena is showing how her training works for her; having more confidence every time; I am thrilled with her effort,” said Smirk of Moran, who moved to Princeton from London.

“Lauren Cleary was sitting in the wings last year, learning more about the sport, challenging what she believed she could do. She is a captain for us this year as

well and she has carried that responsibility well and that has helped her race better.

We are thrilled with that.”

Smirk was thrilled by how younger runners competed on Friday as sophomore Elizabeth Hare took 31st in 21:43.30 while a trio of freshmen, Chloe Ayers (39th in 22:04.31), Emma Lips (46th in 22:22.40), and Alana King (71st in 23:18.98), ran well.

“We rotated our team a little bit today on the back half and I am real happy with their effort today,” said Smirk.

With the Little Tigers returning to action when they compete in the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional on November 4, Smirk is looking for another big effort.

“We are still trying to solidify our team identity; we came a lot closer to that today,” said Smirk.

“We certainly ran tough. I am happy with what we accomplished today. It is not that we ever have a lack of toughness in our program; we are gritty when it counts.”

Taylor, for her part, likes the way things are going, in both the short run and long run.

“I wasn’t expecting the season to go as well as it has,” said Taylor. “The main focus is the team, getting healthy, and doing the best we can. We have a group of young girls and they are doing extremely well for us. In the future, that will be good for the team.”

Aiming to Produce Another Historic Stretch Run, PHS Boys’ Cross Country Wins County Crown

TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, OCTObER 25, 2017 • 32

After Pulling Major Upsets in Stirring MCT Run, PHS Field Hockey Falls to Lawrenceville in Final For the Princeton High field hockey team, its run to the Mercer County tournament final amounted to a revenge tour.

Sixth-seeded PHS avenged regular season defeats as it topped third-seeded Robbinsville 2-1 in the MCT quarterfinals on October 17 and second-seeded Allentown 2-1 in overtime in the semis last Thursday.

In the final against topseeded Lawenceville last Saturday evening, the Little Tigers got a chance to make amends for another earlier loss as it had lost 6-0 to the Big Red on September 29.

For nearly 13 minutes in the title game held at Mercer County Community College, the tenacious PHS squad held the for t, thwar ting Lawrenceville as the Big Red dominated possession and generated a number of scoring chances to no avail.

But the Big Red broke through with a goal at the 13 : 07 mark a nd ad de d two more tallies to take a 3-0 lead at halftime. In the second half, Lawrenceville tacked on two more unanswered goals to win 5-0 and earn its sixth MCT crown in the last seven years.

Notwithstanding the final score, PHS head coach H e at h er S er ver s on w as proud of how her defensive unit battled in the face of the Lawrenceville onslaught.

“They are solid, especially with Lily and Kate in there,” said Serverson referring to senior defender Lily Leonard and senior goalie Kate Rogers. “We just couldn’t seem to stop all of the shots that they took; they were great shots.”

Getting its first shot at the county title since making the MCT final in 2014 marked a nice turnaround from a shaky start which saw the Little Tigers go 1-3-1 in its first five games this fall.

“Our goal was to change the result of some of our losses from earlier in the season and we did that,” said Serverson, whose team moved to 10-6-2 with the loss to Lawrenceville.

“I told them before the game, no matter what happens with the outcome of this game, you made it to the finals. Looking at how we started our season, to be able to transform the way that we did was great.”

In reflecting on PHS’s late surge, Serverson credited

RED ALERT: Princeton High field hockey goalie Kate Rogers (No. 88) holds the fort as sixth-seeded PHS battled top-seeded and defending champion Lawrenceville in the Mercer County Tournament title game last Saturday at Mercer County Community College. Senior star goalie Rogers made 13 saves but it wasn’t enough as the Little Tigers fell 5-0 to the powerful Big Red, the winners of six of the last seven MCT crowns. PHS, now 10-6-2, starts play in the public state tournament later this week, where it is seeded fifth in the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional and plays at No. 4 Lenape in a quarterfinal contest on October 28.

the squad’s seniors with having a great influence on their younger teammates.

“I think they just really helped to keep the other girls calm and resilient in the stressful situations because they themselves have had these experiences before,” said Serverson, whose contingent of seniors included Lisette Dubow, Margaret Jacobs, and Chloe Koehler, in addition to Leonard and Rogers.

“The younger ones weren’t exactly sure what to expect but I think just hearing their voices on the field and the confidence that they bring for the younger players really helped and paid off.”

In Serverson’s view, learning those lessons will pay off down the road.

“I t h i n k it s hows t h e younger players what they are capable of,” said Serverson.

“We might not have all of that consistency that we need yet. I think it is a good experience because it shows them at a young age, look what we were able to do, so imagine what we can do moving forward.”

With PHS starting play in the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional where it is seeded fifth and will play at fourth seeded Lenape in a quarterfinal contest on October 28, Serverson believes her team is capable of another big tournament run.

“We have been playing as a unit and that is what I have been emphasizing with them from the beginning,” said Serverson.

“We played like individuals in the beginning and that is why we were losing and now we are more aware of where our teammates are at.

It has just made a huge difference; now we just need to start peppering the goal like Lawrenceville does.”

PHS Turned Tables On Allentown in MCT Semis As Midfielder Lopez-Ona Triggered the Offense It turned into a case of dèjá vu for Mariana LopezO na a nd t h e P r i nce ton High field hockey team as they faced Allentown in the Mercer County Tournament semifinals last Thursday.

After having lost 2-1 in overtime to Allentown earlier in October, PHS battled the Redbirds to a 1-1 stalemate through regulation in the MCT contest, forcing another extra session.

Junior star midfielder Lopez-Ona sensed that sixthseeded PHS was primed to turn the tables on secondseeded Allentown in the postseason rematch, which took place at Mercer County Community College.

“It is our second chance, let’s take it,” said LopezOna, describing the team’s mind-set as it headed into overtime.

“Our intensity was high, we definitely felt the mood.

We knew this was our game to win.”

Just 3:53 into the first overtime, Lopez-Ona made sure that PHS prevailed in round two, blasting a shot towards the goal that was directed into the back of the cage by junior Isabel Kinney.

“Luckily, the top opened up,” recalled Lopez-Ona. “Izzy was in a great position and had a great tip. Everything worked together.”

Lopez-Ona had opened t he scor ing in t he con test, sprinting through and around the Allentown defense and then blasting a shot home at the 7:30 mark of the first half.

“I just saw the middle open up and I definitely took it,” said Lopez-Ona. “Our forwards moved around and cut to keep their defenders moving and I had a clear path.”

PHS head coach Heather Serverson was not surprised to see Lopez-Ona involved in both goals on the evening.

“Mariana is solid; she is such a hustler,” said Serverson. “She is in such great shape and she has got great skills. She has her head into the game and it is very hard to knock her mentally off game.”

The Little Tigers had to keep their heads as Allentown scored late in the first half to make it 1-1 and then controlled possession for long stretches in the second half.

“It was definitely a rough time because we knew that

they are a strong team and they can do it too,” said Lopez-Ona. “We had to keep our intensity high the entire time and keep fighting and not let them get that again.”

Getting to the championship game was special for Lopez-Ona. “I have been in the semifinals for all three years of my high school career and this is my first year

winning,” said Lopez-Ona. “I am feeling lucky.”

While PHS ended up losing 5-0 to top-seeded and defending champion Lawrenceville in the title game on Saturday, its MCT run exemplifies the progress made by the squad since struggling in the early going.

“We have got ten a lot stronger; I think everyone started working together,” said Lopez-Ona. “We are definitely getting our intensity higher and sooner in the games.”

Anna Cao was looking for a change athletically when she entered the eighth grade in 2013.

“I used to swim but that took up a lot of time so I started something new in volleyball,” said Cao. “I started at a summer camp at CJVA (Central Jersey Volleyball Academy) and then I started playing for the Princeton Volleyball Club.”

Taking to her new sport, Cao went on to Princeton High and helped its volleyball program go from a club squad to a powerhouse varsity team.

“It has been so great to see how these girls have improved so much,” said senior outside and senior co-captain Cao. “It has been a really great experience watching everyone grow.”

Last Monday, Cao and the Little Tigers enjoyed a special experience as secondseeded PHS defeated topseeded Rancocas Valley 2-0 (25-21, 25-12) in the WJIVL (West Jersey Interscholastic Volleyball League) title game at Rider University.

It was the second straight WJIVL title for PHS, which improved to 28-1 with the win and is next in action when it hosts Lawrenceville on October 25.

The partnership between Cao and classmate and cocaptain setter Rachel Cheng helped power the Little Tigers to the win over Rancocas Valley as Cao had seven kills in the title match while Cheng contributed 13 assists and two kills.

“Rachel and I are pretty close friends so that helps a lot,” said Cao. “We practice a lot together and it has really been helping and she has been doing so well.”

Together with Cheng, Cao tries to set a positive tone for PHS. “As a captain, I really try to keep the spirits up on the court and make sure that everyone is energized, upbeat, and optimistic during the game,” said Cao, who has committed to attend Carnegie Mellon University and join its women’s volleyball program.

“On the court, I am hoping to lead my team and set an example and really make sure that I can contribute to my team.”

On the court, Cao focuses on contributing in her spot on the front row.

“I have always been a hitter,” said Cao. “Improving on hitting has been No. 1 and improving on defense as well.”

Manhart is thrilled with the improvement she has seen from Cao. “Anna is an all-star; she is the first player that we have from PHS who committed to playing in college,” said Manhart.

“That is another piece of PHS volleyball history that she gets to lay the foundation for.”

Cao’s par tnership with Cheng is a key factor in the success of the Little Tigers.

“They are both captains and they work together on a lot of stuff,” added Manhart.

“They know how to communicate with each other, how to make changes, and how to make things work.

Anna is purposefully positioned to start the game up front to get us some points and build that confidence.

She is an all around player, she can do everything.”

With nearly all of its players returning from a squad that went 17-5 last season, Manhar t was confident coming into the 2017 campaign.

“Our starting point coming back was really solid; that comes from these girls having that experience,” said Manhart.

“This is not a rebuilding year for us. This was our baseline and we have been fine-tuning. We have progressed throughout the course of the season. We have all gotten better and we have room to grow.”

L ook ing a head to t he WJIVL tourney, Manhart sensed that her squad was primed to earn a second straight title.

“We need to be doing everything we are capable of doing, everything needs to be on,” said Manhart, noting that the team’s one defeat this season came to Rancocas Valley.

“It is going to be in a big arena and that is new for us.

We never had that setting so I am looking forward to the girls rising to being in such an exciting atmosphere.”

Cao, for her part, believed the Little Tigers would rise to the occasion.

“I think we need to really come out strong, we have really great hitters in Gillian (Hauschild), Sara (Vigiano), and Kim (Cheng),” said Cao. “Natalia (Drobnjak) is doing a great job on the defense and Rachel has so many assists already. We have really bonded.”

Sparked by Hasegawa’s Versatility on Back Line, PHS Boys’ Soccer Advances to MCT Semifinal When the Princeton High boys’ soccer team played Allentown earlier this month, it dug a 2-0 hole before pulling out a dramatic 3-2 win.

Last Saturday, the rivals met for a rematch in the quarterfinals of the Mercer County Tournament and third-seeded PHS utilized a new look in an effort to stifle the sixth-seeded Redbirds.

“We recently created a new formation and one of the key aspects of it was that we drag the opponent to the middle so that our outside backs can get more space,” said PHS senior defender Jun Hasegawa.

“That is what we are focusing on.”

Hasegawa found space late in the first half, slotting a pass that Josh Nieman banged home for a goal. Allentown responded with a goal early in the second half to knot the game at 1-1. But foiling the Redbirds for a second time in weeks, senior midfielder Drew Beamer tallied to give PHS a 2-1 win.

The victory advanced the Little Tigers, now 12-3-1, to the MCT semis where they were slated to play secondseeded Pennington on October 24 with the winner advancing to the title game on October 26 at The College of New Jersey.

Hasegawa wasn’t surprised that PHS was able to come through under playoff pressure.

“We know to keep our heads up and keep go-

ing from that point on,” said Hasegawa.

Keeping his head up helped Hasegawa come up with an assist on Nieman’s goal.

“We have a good triangle linking me with Atticus Lynch and Josh Nieman,” said Hasegawa.

“Atticus saw my run and he dragged it to the side, which gave me the space to go forward. They focused more towards Atticus which left Josh isolated and I found him.”

In describing his role for PHS, Hasegawa is focused on using his speed and skill.

“Pace is one of the biggest aspects that coach [Wayne Sutcliffe] likes to utilize,” said Hasegawa.

“With this new formation, I am able to go forward a lot more, I can track back and utilize my pace and get down the flank.”

In Hasegawa’s view, the battle-tested Little Tigers are on the right track.

“This is a senior heavy team and we have two, three, or four years experience, and we even have some young players who are stepping up to their expectations as well,” said Hasegawa. “We are all ready, we have the tight mentality, we are seniors.”

PHS head coach Sutcliffe liked the playoff intensity his team exhibited on the win over Allentown.

“It is survive and advance,” said Sutcliffe. “Every game is a one off, so you have got

775 Mt. Lucas Road, Princeton

to try to have that mentality.

Every play has to be a World Cup play; every moment is a World Cup moment because you are in the end of it.”

The Little Tigers produced a special moment when they jumped out to the 1-0 lead.

“It was a great combination, it is one of our patterns of play,” said Sutcliffe. “You can’t really serve a ball better than Jun did. In terms of the finish for Josh, I am just so happy for him. Since the end of last season, he has not played all season. That is the story of the game. He has been injured and not fully fit to make an appearance in a match until this week and sure enough in the second game, he scored the opening goal.”

Hasegawa has been a very good story this fall for PHS. “As a wingback, he is just so good,” asserted Sutcliffe.

“He battles and his decision making is good. He has got multiple dimensions to his game. He can get up into the attack, he can serve a great ball, and he has great feet. Jun is a warrior.”

Hasegawa, for his part, is ready to battle to the end in tournament play.

“Before every game we have been having a tactical talk with the coach,” said Hasegawa.

“We have been planning different tactics and different plays. We are not going into this absentmindedly, we are going in with a plan.

We know what we are doing. We know how to talk and we have an idea of what we are getting into before every game.”

With Junior Star Adams Back at Full Strength, Hun Boys’ Cross Country Showing Progress Martin Adams personifies the perseverance and progress displayed by the Hun School boys’ cross country team this fall.

After suffering hip fractures early in the 2016 season, Adams diligently rehabbed and has emerged as a star for Hun this fall.

“Martin is in great health now, he had a great summer training,” said Hun head coach Kate Butler of junior Adams, who started the season by taking first at the Newark Academy Invitational.

“He was very smart; he was working with a specific regimen designed for him so that really helped. He has been real strong.”

Last Friday, Adams produced a really good performance, taking 34th in the Boys’ Varsity race at the Mercer County Championships at Thompson Park in Jamesburg, covering the 5,000 -meter course in a time of 17:29.04.

“We were pretty excited to see the kids come out today,” said Butler, whose squad placed 18th of 19 schools in the team standings.

“There is great competition on this day every year.

Martin has had a great season and today was a pretty good run for him.”

There was healthy competition within the Hun squad as sophomore Liam Kelso

placed 95th in 19:44.57 while sophomore Andy Deng was 117th in 20:56.51 and junior Paul Argiriou took 119th at 21:21.57.

“Liam was our second today, which is usually where he falls,” said Butler. “Andy was able to come in third for us with a pretty good time.

Paul came in fourth for us today so there was a little shakeup in our top four. It was good to see.”

In Butler’s view, taking part in the county meet is a valuable experience for her runners no matter where they fall in the standings.

“It is good for our guys to see this level of competition,” said Butler, noting that the team’s younger runners showed potential by producing a slew of personal bests in the freshman race.

“I think that this competitive field really pushes our guys to run faster.”

Hun will be looking to continue its progress as it faces another tough field when it competes in the state Prep A championship meet at Blair Academy on October 25.

“I think that our season has been a good one; we have been able to see our times come down which is what you really want to see as a coach,” said Butler.

“Our team feels like they are peaking r ight about now, which is a good time to peak. We ran at Blair a few weeks ago so the kids already know the course. I am pretty optimistic.”

Sparked by Core of Solid Young Runners, PDS Boys’ Cross Country Making Strides Even though his Princeton Day School boys’ cross country team finished 16th of 19 teams in the Boys’ Varsity race at the Mercer County Championships last Friday, John Woodside was all smiles afterward.

“I have to say that our team’s performance for the whole year has been tremendous,” said PDS head coach Woodside.

“I am really, really proud of these kids. This group here is completely beyond our level but it is a great experience for us. It is always good to go against better competition; that will improve us in the long run.”

Sophomore Kevin Dougherty has shown great improvement this fall for PDS, continuing his progress by taking 65th individually at the county meet, clocking a time of 18:16.96 over the 5,000-meter course.

“We have seen him go from a fledgling freshman last year to a No. 1 runner,” said Woodside.

“It has really solidified the front of our pack and it has been tremendous for the team.”

The addition of freshman Gunnar Clingman has also

solidified things for the Panthers.

“Gunnar came over from Hopewell and having him has really helped our team a lot,” added Woodside of Clingman, who placed 92nd at the counties in a time of 19:09.15.

“Last week, we had a great day where Kevin and Gunnar were one second apart, they ran 17:44 and 17:45.”

Woodside is hoping that his squad has a great day when it competes in the state Prep B meet on October 25 at Blair Academy.

“Wednesday is our whole season; Montclair Kimberley Academy looks like they are the best team and Newark Academy is certainly better than us but after that, it looks like we could take third,” said Woodside.

“We have to beat Pennington, we have to beat Rutgers Prep, and we have to beat whoever else is there. We said in preseason that we want to move up and finish on the podium. If we get third, then we do that. The goal is to be more competitive next week, and less time based.”

No matter what happens at the Prep B competition,

PRUNING YOUNG TREES With Pepper deTuro WOODWINDS ASSOCIATES

Formative pruning is essential in developing a tree with a strong structure and desirable form. Properly trained young trees will require less additional pruning as they mature.

The goal in training young trees is to establish a strong trunk with sturdy, well-spaced branches.

The strength of the branch structure depends on the relative sizes of the branches, the branch angles, and the spacing of the limbs.

Naturally, this will vary with the growth habit of the tree.

Pin Oaks and Ashes, for example, will have a conical shape with a central leader.

Crabapples and Maples are often wide-spreading without a central leader. Other trees, such as Lindens and ornamental Pears, are densely branched. Good pruning techniques remove structurally weak limbs while maintaining the natural form of the tree.

PDS is headed in the right direction.

“We have taken a big step up in the last two years since I took over,” said Woodside, who prev iously coached boys’ cross countr y and track at Princeton High.

“We have been building and I know it is going to continue because we have a lot of good young talent. We have a freshman class of six or seven kids this year. We have two great sophomores, we have a couple of juniors, and we have a good freshman class coming in next year.”

Pruning of newly-planted trees should be limited to “repair work” such as the removal of torn or broken limbs. However, shade trees often have low limbs that will probably need to be removed within a few years to facilitate mowing.

Pruning young trees is best done by a professional; each cut has the potential to change the growth of the trees.

Obituaries

Kurt Mislow Kurt Mislow, Hugh Stott Taylor Professor of Chemistry Emeritus at Princeton University and a pioneer in the theory of modern stereochemistry, died on October 5th, 2017. He was 94.

Prof. Mislow was born in Berlin, Germany, on June 5, 1923. With the rapid rise of National Socialism in Germany, his family moved first to Milan in 1936, then to London in 1938. In September 1940, as the Luftwaffe began its bombing raids on London and just as Mislow was about to enter Cambridge University, the crucial affidavit arrived that allowed his family to immigrate to America, where they settled in Manhattan.

Mislow graduated from Tulane University (B.S., 1944) and obtained his Ph.D. degree in 1947 at the California Institute of Technology under the direction of Linus Pauling. He joined the faculty of New York University, where he rose through the ranks to Professor. In 1964 he was invited to Princeton University as the first incumbent of the Hugh Stott Taylor Chair of Chemistry, and was Chairman of the Chemistry Department from 1968 to 1974.

Stereochemistry is a subject that analyzes the threedimensional arrangement of atoms and molecules in space. It is a field fundamental to many scientific disciplines, such as physics, biochemistry, genetics, pharmaceuticals, and nanotechnology. Chirality, is a term derived from the Greek word for handedness. An object is chiral if and only if it is not superimposable on its mirror image. Chirality is strikingly obvious in our daily lives. Thus, while our right and left hands are symmetrical, they are not superimposable; your right hand cannot be fitted into your left glove.

The principal theme of Kurt Mislow’s research was the introduction of the theoretical concepts of symmetry and chirality into the field of stereochemistry; he was able to explain how symmetry at the molecular level could determine chemical interactions at the macroscopic level.

In order to to describe the complexity of molecular structures, he created a new, precise, insightful lexicon based on topicity that is now standard in the field. He and his students also designed and synthesized the complex organic molecules that validated his symmetry-based predictions. Indeed, many of the chiral species that are used to prepare enantiopure

pharmaceuticals today, rely on the classes of molecules that Mislow’s group first described and prepared in his laboratory.

Mislow introduced group theory to clarify the stereochemical relationships both between molecules as well as within molecules. He recognized the power of graph theory to examine the kinetic activity of fascinating mobile machines of nanotechnology such as molecular gears and propellers.

When he became an Emeritus Professor, he devoted his time more fully to topology, also termed “rubber sheet geometry”, creating a rigorous quantitative analysis of deformable chiral molecules such as the variety knots found in proteins and the molecular links found in DNA. He proposed a unique relationship between the form and function of these entwined molecular superstructures and the origins of chirality.

Prof. Mislow maintained a cautious concern regarding the interaction of social and public policies and the scientific enterprise. In 1988, he taught a graduate course “Social Responsibilities of Scientists” that addressed the moral questions of chemical, biological, and nuclear weaponry, genetic engineering, and other salient topics, recognizing that science is value laden and has the capacity for great harm as well as great benefit.

Mislow was a committed, passionate, much loved and respected teacher of both undergraduates and graduate students. In addition to being a premier scientist, he was a humanist, with broad and probing interests in philosophy, history, neuroscience, literature, and music.

Kurt Mislow was a Sloan Fellow (1959-63) and was awarded two Guggenheim Fellowships: one, in 1956, at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zürich and another, in 1974, at the University of Cambridge, where he was also an Overseas Fellow of Churchill College. He received honorary doctorates from the Free University of Brussels, Tulane University, the University of Uppsala, Düsseldorf, and Zürich.

He was awarded the S olv ay Me d a l f rom t h e Free University of Brussels (1972), received the Americ a n Ch e m ic a l S o cie t y’s James Flack Norris Award in Physical Organic Chemistry (1975), the CCNY Scientific Achievement Award Medal (1988), the William H. Nichols Medal (1987), the Tulane University Sesquicentennial Medal, (1997), and the Arthur C. Cope Scholar Award (1995). He was the first recipient of the Prelog Medal (1986), and was awarded the Chirality Gold Medal in 1993.

Mislow was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1972, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1974, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1980, and a foreign Member of the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei in 1999. He was Sherman Fairchild Distinguished Scholar at the California Institute of Technology in 1990, 1991, and 1994, and received the Distinguished Alumni Award from that institution in 1990. Mislow

has held numerous Visiting professorships and honorary lectureships here and abroad, and has served on the editorial advisory boards of many noted scientific journals.

He authored or coauthored over 350 articles in professional journals and wrote the classic book, Introduction to Stereochemistry [1965] that was so lucid and advanced in the explanation of the subject that, 50 years later, it is still used in teaching and referenced in major research publications.

Professor Mislow is survived by his beloved wife of 50 years, Dr. Jacqueline Mislow. He was predeceased by their son, John Mislow, M.D., Ph.D., Princeton Class of ’92, a neurosurgeon at Brigham Hospital in Boston.

He is survived by John’s two sons, Max and John. He is also survived by Christopher Mislow, Princeton Class of ’74, an attorney in Charlottesville, Va., his son from a former marriage.

Margaret Wister Frantz Wellington Margaret Wister Frantz Wellington, 93, of Dar tmouth, Mass. passed away on October 12, 2017 at St. Luke’s Hospital.

Daughter of the late Samuel and Sarah Frantz, she was born on December 19, 1923 in Paris, France, and was raised in Princeton, N.J. During World War II, she served in the U.S. Marine Corps and had the honor of announcing the end of the war to her fellow Marines at her base at El Toro in Orange County, Calif.

She married Jack Meyers from Savannah, Ga. and raised her four children in Princeton. She was an avid volunteer, and worked for many years with Meals on Wheels and Family Born.

Throughout her life, she was a voracious reader, loved opera and classical music, and enjoyed bird watching and traveling the world. She later married Thomas Wellington, who predeceased her. In 2016 she moved to Dartmouth to be closer to her family.

Her surviving family includes John Myers of Arcata, Calif.; Sarah Myers of Dartmouth; Fairlie Myers of Waltham, Mass.; stepchildren: Maggie, Peter, Sarah, and Irene Wellington; five grandchildren: Ben Myers, Caroline Thornton, Isabelle Lanagan, Jane Myers, and Andrew Myers; four greatgrandchildren: Ian Myers, Kyra Myers, Miranda Myers, and Alice Lanagan; a sister Sarah Frantz Latimer; a niece, Miranda Swift and her husband, Tom; and daughter-in-law Cheryl Dellecese. She was predeceased by her son, Thomas Myers; her sister, Katherine Mayo; and her longtime companion Bill Stoltzfus.

There will be a memorial gathering for a celebration of

her life at The Present Day Club, 72 Stockton Street, Princeton, NJ on the afternoon of December 2. Time still to be determined.

Stacy Terhune Lorenceau

Stacy Terhune Lorenceau, the eldest daughter of Fleury Mackie and Jack Valdes, died on October 6th in Pinehurst, North Carolina.

Stacy was born in New York Cit y in 1949, and the young family moved to Princeton in 1951. She attended Miss Fines School, on the site that later became Borough Hall. Stacy attended the Shipley School in Bryn Mawr, Pa., for her high school years, and matriculated at the University of Denver for two years.

She also spent a semester in Paris where she worked to perfect her French, and studied culture. After college she moved to the West Village in New York City, rooming with Tene Otis, a Princeton friend. There she worked for an advertising agency.

At her cousin’s wedding in Paris in 1974, she became reacquainted with Francois L orenceau, who was to eventually become a fourth generation gallery dealer at the Paris Gallery of Brame — Lorenceau. The two married in Vichy, France in the summer of 1976. In 1983, after her three sons were born, the family moved to Cap d’Ail on the southern coast of France, where Stacy experienced the happiest time of her marriage with her young family. In 1991 they returned to Paris, to a more traditional life.

In 1998, after the couple divorced, Stacy returned to the U.S. where she rekindled the relationship with her first love from college, Gary Garratt an engineer from the West Coast. She moved to San Martin, California with Gary where the couple enjoyed traveling in the jet airplane that Gary had built.

In 2003, it became apparent that Stacy was having cog n it ive problems.

Her youngest sister Kelly Valdes stepped in to bring her to the horse farm that she managed in Southern Pines, North Carolina. Stacy was suffering from early onset Alzheimer’s Disease, a condition she lived with for more than 12 years, under the care and oversight of her devoted sister.

Stacy was stylish and charismatic, with a firecracker personality. She had a quick wit and musical sense that she would often put to use writing original humorous songs for social occasions.

She was fun-loving, and good humored to the end.

Above all, she adored her three sons — Antoine, Olivier, and Thomas, who survive her.

She is also survived by

May 27, 1935 — October 16, 2017 Wa y n e V i r g i n i a G o s s Douglas died peacefully, surrounded by her children, in Narragansett, R.I. on October 16, 2017 of complications from lung cancer. She was 82 years old.

B or n i n Wate r b u r y, Conn., Wayne was the second of four children born to Richard Wayne Goss and Virginia Johnston Goss.

As a girl, she attended St. Margaret’s School in Waterbury, then Garrison Forest School in Owings Mills, Md. During many of these years, she also attended Camp Wohelo in South Casco, Maine, where she learned woodcraft s k i l ls a n d t h e c a mpf ire songs that she would later sing with her daughters and granddaughters.

Way ne graduated from Vassar College in 1956 with a B.A. in English. Shortly thereaf ter, she was married to Archibald Douglas III, with whom she enjoyed a 57-year adventure.

As a young bride, Wayne lived first in Middlebur y, Conn., then Gates Mills, Ohio and Iron Mountain, Mich., before set tling in Louisville, Ky. in late 1960.

Wayne flourished in Louisville, joining the Junior League, volunteering with Planned Parenthood, and serving on the board of the Louisville Ballet. Among bright memories were latenight Christmas Eve parties held at the Douglas house, w it h dancers leaping to and fro, spreading tinsel, far from their own homes and families, but included in Wayne’s.

Re f l e c t i v e a n d s m a r t , Wayne also loved Louis ville’s social life. The River Valley Club, the Louisville Country Club, the church choir at St. Francis in the Fields Episcopal Church — these were all happy places for her, filled with friends, tennis, music, good works, and always flowers. She devoted particular attention to her gardens – f lower, vegetable, and Japanese — at Quarry Hill, overlooking the Ohio River. But her love of nature and the outdoors was also political.

She served as president of Strategies for Environmental Control in 1975-1976.

In 1976, Wayne and Archie moved to L aw rence Township, N.J., and there she took on the challenge o f W i l l o w g a t e Fa r m , a centuries - old estate that had been well-maintained but which responded even more to her v isionar y touch. During these years, Wayne earned a B.S. in Geology as well as a Master’s degree in Landscape Architecture, both from Rutgers Universit y. This led to a successful and respected, a lb e it low - ke y, pr ac t ice as a landscape designer.

As much as Wayne loved plants and flowers, it developed that her real passion — and her great strength — was design. She became passionate about ornamental grasses, berms, and the

like. Her designs cur ved and swayed, ref lecting the natural rhythms of the sites on which she worked.

At the same time, Wayne’s sk ill drew t he at tent ion of local leaders, and she was appointed to a seat on the Lawrence Planning C om m is s ion, wh ere s h e served for several enlightening years. She also was a regular member of Trinit y Church in Princeton, draw n to its progressive philosophy and outreach programs.

Wayne and Archie retired to Narragansett in December 1999. It had long been a summer destination, but now it was full-time. Reunited with lifelong friends, she set to work making Pine Lodge a home. As usual, a memorable flower garden was one of the results of that effort, with children, grandchildren, and beloved friends coming and going to the house throughout each year. Golf and paddle tennis at Pt. Judith Count r y Club we re a s te ad y at traction, and summers turned around the Dunes Club and friends and family there. Winters in South Carolina at Yeamans Hall, along with long-dreamedof travel became more the norm. And when Archie’s h e a lt h d e cl i n e d , Way n e leaned in, stepped up, and pressed on. She worked the doctors, drove the car, and ran the show. After Archie’s death in March 2013, she slowed down briefly. But work on the Narragansett H i s to r i c a l C o m m i s s i o n , loyal friends who included her in br idge and ot her pastimes, and a commitment to St. Peter’s-by-theSea Episcopal Church provided purpose and activity.

She grew used to a more independent life.

Wa y n e’s i l l n e s s c a m e with surprising speed, but she faced it head-on with acceptance and grace. On October 2, 2017, the Narragans et t Tow n Cou ncil extended its “appreciation and thanks” to Wayne for her “distinguished service to the community.” It was a fitting and appropriate acknowledgement of service.

She is survived by a sister, Garril Goss Page, and a brother, Porter Johnston Goss (and predeceased by her brother, Richard Wayne Goss II), by four children — Archibald Douglas IV, Edith Way ne ( Dais y ) Douglas, Eliza Douglas McErlean, and Deirdre Hunt Douglas — and eight grandchildren.

The classic matriarch, she showed us the way to live.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.

And when we think of her, we w ill hear her adv ice : “G o i n t h e o c e a n. T h e ocean will fix it.”

A service will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 28, at St. Peter’s bythe-Sea, Narragansett, R.I. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to South Cou nt y Hospital Cancer C e n te r, A n i m a l R e s c u e League of South County, or St. Peter’s by-the-Sea.

The updated kitchen is showroom ready with white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, farmhouse sink and center island. A beamed ceiling unites the kitchen and family room, which features built-in seating below a wall of windows and a wood-burning stove.

SPRING MOVE? HERE'S WHAT TO DO NOW

If you think it’s too early to start planning a springtime move, you're wrong. To get the best deal, you need to be able to act quickly. And that means starting now. Here’s what to put on your to-do list: • Order your credit reports. You can get a free report from each of the three major credit bureaus from www.annualcreditreport.com/index.action. Check your reports carefully and contest any errors.

• Check out potential neighborhoods. Having ample time to cruise around during the week, on weekends, and at different times of day gives you a more realistic view of the neighborhoods you’re considering. It also lets you check out the schools.

• If you’re selling, tackle those maintenance and improvement projects. Whether you DIY or hire someone, get started now to be sure your home looks its best in the spring.

• Attend some open houses.
