PBS Plans “Robust Archeological Investigation”

The Princeton Battlefield Society (PBS), with a grant from the American Battlefield Protection Program (ABPP) and guidance from archeologist Wade Catts and historian Bob Selig, is preparing to launch an extensive investigation of property that may contain a mass grave, located on the north side of Mercer Road behind the iconic colonnade. According to the PBS, an earlier ABPP grant, for which Mr. Catts and Mr. Selig were also consultants, led to the discovery of considerable new information and the realization that the D’Ambrisi property, which is not located in the Battlefield Historic District, actually played a significant role in the Battle of Princeton. The PBS, along with Green Acres, the Municipality of Princeton, Friends of Princeton Open Space, and the Civil War Trust, arranged to purchase property from the D’Ambrisi family almost two years ago, and is currently in the process of purchasing additional property nearby. The current ABPP grant, according to PBS vice president Kip Cherry, calls for “a robust

archeological investigation, detailed historical research using original documents and careful interpretation, GIS mapping, laboratory work on artifacts that may be found,” and preparation of a final report that may lead to applications for annexing the site to national and local historic districts. The PBS, researchers, and more than 40 local archeology volunteers are await-

ing a special use permit from the state before proceeding. Ms. Cherry said that the date for archeology day, a day of intensive work by volunteers under the supervision of experts, will be announced soon and will probably take place later this month. Mr. Catts suggested that two “anomalies” that have been discovered underground by ground penetrating radar “bear Continued on Page 8

Sustainability at Princeton University: Looking Back, Looking to the Future As Princeton University recently recast its motto from “in the nation’s service” to “in the nation’s service and the service of humanity,” Sustainability Office Founding Director Shana Weber noted that the University’s “focus on the ethos of service aligns perfectly with the objective of sustainability. It’s all part of the same desire for healthy systems for people and planets.” Princeton University last month celebrated the tenth anniversary of its Office

of Sustainability, which “supports, monitors, and connects initiatives across campus focused on cultivating positive global and local impacts in the environment.” As she looked ahead to the coming decade, Ms. Weber wondered, ”What are the local, regional, and global impacts we can have, given our strengths?” In accordance with its sustainability plan developed in 2008, the University has reduced waste and resource use, Continued on Page 11

A driving rain didn’t keep residents of the neighborhood surrounding the Patton Avenue home of late architect Michael Graves from attending a meeting last Thursday evening about the future of the property. Dawood Farahi, president of Kean University, told neighbors that the three buildings, which Kean University purchased for $20 from the Graves estate, will remain much as they are. Mr. Graves, who died in March 2015, had willed the property known as The Warehouse to Princeton University, where he taught for 39 years. But the school rejected the gift because of maintenance and preservation costs. Kean, where Mr. Graves spent time during his last years helping to create an architecture department, was deemed the next-best recipient. “We will work with you in any way we can to ensure your neighborhood remains the same,” Mr. Farahi said. “We will do everything we can to maintain the beauty and privacy and anything else you’re used to in this beautiful neighborhood.” The meeting was held in a tent outside The Warehouse, which Mr. Graves converted to his home and studio from a storage facility built by Italian stonemasons. Residents, who were offered hors d’oeuvres, desserts, and Kean tote bags, listened politely to Mr. Farahi and watched a promotional video about the Union, New-Jersey based school. But once the floor was opened, some pointed questions were asked about just how the property will be used. “We’re thinking about 10 years down the road,” said Scott Sillars, who had

REVERSAL OF FORTUNE: Members of the Princeton Day School field hockey team celebrate after they defeated Stuart Country Day 2-0 in the state Prep B championship game last Sunday. It marked the program’s first state title since taking the Prep A crown in 1998. The triumph gave PDS a final record of 16-4 and culminated an impressive reversal of fortune from 2015 when the squad went 6-13-1. See page 37 for more details on the title game.

the signature of something that could be a large burial trench.” Mr. Selig added, “There should be any number of left-over artifacts from the battle, which makes it so interesting for archeologists and historians. The possibility of bodies or skeletons is just one aspect.” He mentioned his interest in exploring what happened after the battle, particularly among the pacifist local civilian Quaker population, which was left with the task of cleaning up in the aftermath of the battle. “This exploration won’t lead to a re-writing of the history of the Battle of Princeton,” he said,” but it will provide more pieces of the puzzle.” Noting that the battle itself was only a brief moment in time on a landscape with an extensive history, Mr. Catts stated that the site could also yield Native American artifacts and may have been an ancient campsite near the stream coming into Stony Brook. As project manager he will ensure that everything found is point plotted and that the site is carefully mapped. Citing an opportunity for any local residents in possession of relevant artifacts or documents, Mr. Catts and Ms. Cherry urged that they come forward so that those objects can be photographed and recorded (not taken for possession). Mr. Catts, project manager for this enterprise, is a registered professional archeologist with degrees in anthropology and history and nearly 30 years experience in archeological investigations. He is a senior historical archeologist at the Commonwealth Heritage Group. With extensive experience in historical interpretation and mapping, Mr. Selig was the project historian to the National Park Service for the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary route. —Donald Gilpin

to Study Astrophysics” by Dr. James Stone, the new Chair of the Department of Astrophysical Sciences, Princeton University. The ever increasing performance of computer hardware and improvements to the accuracy of numerical algorithms are revolutionizing scientific research in many disciplines, but perhaps none more so than astronomy and astrophysics. This talk will begin with a description of why computation is crucial for the solution of a variety of problems at the forefront of research in astronomy. Most of the talk will describe how computers can be used to solve important problems, from understanding stellar dynamics, to how black holes grow over cosmic time. James Stone is the Lyman Spitzer, Jr. Professor of Theoretical Astrophysics and chair of the department of astrophysical sciences at Princeton University, with a joint appointment in the program in applied and computational mathemat-

ics (PACM). He received a PhD in astronomy from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1990 and was a postdoctoral research associate at UIUC for two years before joining the faculty at the University of Maryland in 1992. In 2002 he was elected to the Professorship of Mathematical Physics (1978) at Cambridge University, and moved to Princeton in 2003. The Amateur Astronomers Association of Princeton is an organization of over 80 members with interests in all aspects of astronomy and space science. Founded in 1962, the AAAP promotes a wide range of astronomyrelated activities. The group owns and operates two observatories in New Jersey at Washington Crossing State Park and Jenny Jump State Park. Members include avid observers, armchair investigators, and novices. All share a common love of the sky. Complete meeting details and directions are found at www.princetonastronomy. org.

A 77-YEAR STREAK: At 95, an age when most people are taking it easy, Laura Wooten is still working the polls. She’s been at it since just after graduating from Princeton High School in 1939, and she is raring to go on November 8.

Local Resident Will Be At The Polls For Her 20th Presidential Election Last June 7, Laura Wooten was waiting for a ride from her Lawrenceville home to the polling station at the local firehouse. It was the day of the New Jersey primary, and her driver was a few minutes behind schedule. So Ms. Wooten, who is 95, decided to walk. It was 4:30

in the morning. “I love this stor y,” recalled Yvonne Hill, one of Ms. Wooten’s five children. “She just started walking, in the dark! She couldn’t wait. She had to get there, and get there on time. The person who was driving her saw her walking and picked her up.”

S h o u l d M s . Wo o te n’s transportation to the polling place on November 8 dare to be off schedule, she will most certainly grab her cane and hit the road again. “Voting is so important,” she said this week. “And this is the worst campaign I’ve ever seen in my life. And I’ve seen a lot.” The coming election will mark Ms. Wooten’s 77th year as a poll worker with the Board of Elections in New Jers ey. She hasn’t missed a year since her uncle, Anderson Mitnaul, ran for justice of the peace in the early 1940’s and convinced her to work for $10 as a “challenger,” checking voter IDs. Ms. Wooten holds the record as the longest-serving poll worker in New Jersey. The League of Women Voters of New Jersey gave her a Lifetime Achievement Award last year. This past September, she was recognized at Twitter headquarters in Washington. “My mother is incredible,” said Ms. Hill, who lives in Florida. “She has a generous spirit. She’s always trying to help everybody. She’s extremely dedicated to something she believes in, and voting is just that.” Born in Goldsboro, North Carolina, Ms. Wooten moved to Princeton when she was four years old. She graduated from Princeton High School in 1939 and married three years later. In addition to her five children, she has 16 grandchildren, 36 greatgrandchildren, and another on the way. Ms. Wooten was a nurse’s aide at the University Medical Center of Princeton for 18 years; then moved across the street to become a teaching assistant at Community Park School. Now in her 25th year checking ID’s in the dining hall of Princeton

University’s Butler College, she has no plans to retire. M e m o r i e s of g r o w i n g up and raising a family in Princeton, when it was a small town, bring a smile to Ms. Wooten’s face. But she doesn’t forget the days of segregation. The hospital had a black section and a white section. “There was one black doctor in town,” she recalled. “He could send patients to the hospital, but he couldn’t go in and see them.” During her many years in Princeton, Ms. Wooten lived at various times on Leigh Avenue, Olden Lane, John Street, Witherspoon Street, and Witherspoon Lane.

Bill Hare for Princeton Board of Education Parent of three kids in Princeton Public Schools (7th, 9th, 11th grade) Patent attorney for Life Sciences companies JD/MBA, MS (Biotechnology), MS (Bioengineering), BS (Chemical Engineering) PHS X-Country Booster Club Board Member

Focusing on academic integrity, student wellness and fiscal balance in a period of rapid growth in student enrollment

We know Bill to be a good man with a desire to serve the community. His good humor, thoughtfulness and willingness to work hard would serve the Board of Education well. Jean and Jon Durbin We’ve known Bill for 10 years and are always impressed by his concern for others, his intelligence and his ability to bring a disparate group of people together for a purpose. Khalid and Seema Anwar We’ve known Bill for many years and agree with his objectives for addressing academic integrity and for utilizing fiscal budgets more efficiently. Dali Tao and Xue Li I strongly support William Hare as a member of the Board of Education of Princeton. Not only does he support academic excellence but as a father of two PHS student athletes he understands the important role extracurricular activities play in the overall educational development of our students. Bob James PHS ‘62 Bill Hare’s energy, enthusiasm and commitment to K-12 education in Princeton make him an outstanding choice for our School Board. Joseph Studholme Bill Hare will bring a fresh perspective and new energy to the Princeton School Board. In the years that I’ve known Bill, he really has impressed me with his deep understanding of the needs of our students combined with an ability to keep the big, complicated picture of the school district in focus. He also has precisely the judicious temperament needed to balance the concerns of all the relevant constituencies— including the taxpayers. Corey Brennan The concerns that I hear Bill raise are exactly those that I have been concerned about: academic integrity in the high school and how to achieve fiscal balance so we have great schools, but with property taxes we can afford. Susanna and Marc Monseau I first met Bill Hare five years ago when I coached his oldest son’s Little League team. We’ve been good friends ever since. In all that time I’ve found Bill to be one of the most thoughtful and caring people I know, especially when it comes to issues that affect young people in our community. He always seems to have something funny and interesting and thought provoking to say and I know he’ll make a great addition to the school board. Tom and Inge Regan Bill Hare understands that over crowded classrooms is a serious issue. He is willing to work for change and not just talk. Andrea Odezynska and Peter Ihnat Bill is open to discussing and understanding all sides of an issue before taking a position. I believe he always keeps the best interests of the kids and the town at the center of his thinking. Anne-Marie Maman

husband, Chester, died in 1990. She moved to Lawrenceville to be near family members after he passed away. “I’m still trying to get used to it,” she said. “There’s no transportation.” Recently, Ms. Wooten’s daughter took her mother to Washington to tour the White House and the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture. They were hoping to run into President Obama, but he was out of the building in a meeting. “I would have loved to meet him,” Ms. Wooten said. “I think he’s been great. I get mad when I hear people say he was the worst president. He tried. It’s not that he didn’t. But nobody worked with him. Hoover was the worst president.” Ms. Wooten is a Republican, but will vote Democratic and is hoping to see Hillary Clinton elected next week. “I’ve seen a black president and I want to see a woman president,” she said. “And that’s because of him — Trump. I don’t trust him. I trust her more than I trust him.” —Anne Levin

Question of the Week:

“What are some of the lighter moments in the presidential campaign?” (Photographs by Emily Reeves)

Diane: “I was going to say the lighter moments are the Saturday Night Live skits. It’s great to be in a democracy where we can laugh and poke fun at the candidates freely. We’re all in need of some levity at this stage.” Joan: “The Saturday Night Live skits have just been so right on and so funny. It allows you to make fun of the candidate you support and the candidate that you don’t support and see them in a totally different way.” —Diane Winder (left) and Joan Wolf-Woolley, Princeton

Princeton Realtors Partner To Help Local Families

Hou s i ng I n it iat ive s of Princeton (HIP) would like to call attention to National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, November 12-20, by tapping into the generosity of local Princeton realtors and real estate professionals. HIP, a tax-exempt, allvolunteer organization that assists low-income working families in avoiding homelessness, is asking realtors to contribute some portion of their ear nings in the month of November to HIP, and thus help families in the Princeton area who are less fortunate than many of the clients served by Princeton’s realtors. Wrapping supportive services like financial counseling, educational encouragement, and counseling into a partnership lasting 12 to 24 months, HIP wants to offer a hand up rather than a hand out. Leading the campaign on behalf of the realtors are: Ira Lackey of Callaway Henderson, Anne Nosnitsky of Gloria Nilson and Company, and Beatrice Bloom, of Weichert Realtors. Carol Golden, who is Interim Chair of HIP, noted that every year the National Coalition for the Homeless and the National Student Campaign against Hunger and Homelessness designate the week prior to Thanksgiving to sponsor the National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week. “I am inspired by the willingness of the realtors to make this very important contribution to the welfare of others who are struggling to keep a roof over the heads of their families,” she said. For more infor mation, call Mr. Lackey at ( 609 ) 203-2099, Ms. Nosnitsky at (609) 468-0501, or Ms. Bloom at (609) 577-2989.

“Most of what Trump has been saying is really not that amusing; it’s actually a little scary. A lighter moment for me is when he says ‘bigly’ instead of ‘big league.’” —Olga Hancock with daughter Emilia, Princeton

Sidra: “It’s mostly just disappointing but I enjoy watching the debates because of Trump’s reactions and his inability to form coherent examples and explanations. That’s pretty amusing. But there really isn’t anything fun about this election. It’s really disappointing that this is how our futures are going to be laid out in the next four years. It brings to light all of the actual problems, that there are so many ignorant people, and so many problems in this country.” Giselle: “The entire election has been interesting from both sides. One candidate is obviously better than the other in my opinion. Because the other doesn’t know what he’s talking about most of the time.” —Sidra Ahmad (left) and Giselle Uribe, both Princeton University Class of 2020

Reetu: “It has just become a reality TV show. It’s amusing but also ironic.” Sunil: “I think the lightest moments were the debates, usually one would expect to see a serious debate. But this was a very unique opportunity. It’s amusing to an extent to see how a reality show plays out. But at the same time it’s a very serious choice.” —Reetu Bun (left) and Sunil Suri, Montgomery

Any leader up for our vote to continue in office should be asked two questions: What did you accomplish on our behalf in the past? What do you want to help us achieve in the years ahead?

and increased recycling, local purchasing and alternative transportation use — making impressive strides towards its ambitious goals in three areas: greenhouse gas emissions reduction; resource conservation; and research, education, and civic engagement. Unsurprisingly, however, there are also many opportunities to move forward, as Sierra Magazine pointed out in its most recent annual rankings, where Princeton ranked 102nd among America’s greenest universities based on sustainability practices. Ms. Weber, in echoing doubts of many colleagues at universities throughout the countr y, questioned the rankings as “inherently counter to the spirit of the field, which is all about positive collective impact,” but she did accept the Sierra Magazine article’s suggestion that at Princeton, and “in all higher education, as in the society at large, there is much room for improvement.” Emphasizing the spirit of teamwork that prevails among universities striving for sustainability, Ms. Weber said, “We’re all basically doing this job for the same reason. We all want to make a difference. Every institution has a different skill set, a different energy, a different climate and social and economic challenges, and we’re all looking to apply what we’re best at to meet the challenges.” The Sierra Club magazine based its rankings on

data submitted from 202 colleges that responded to an extensive questionnaire. “Our scoring system reflects the broader priorities of the Sierra Club,” they wrote. “For example, we award a significant percentage of points in the areas of campus energy use, transportation, and fossil fuel divestment because the Sierra Club believes that progress in these sectors is essential for addressing the climate crisis.” P r i n c e to n U n i v e r s i t y, more accustomed to magazine rankings of #1, 2, or 3, scored a total of 541.14 out of 1000 points on the Sierra “Cool Schools” tally, with the top-rated university scoring 783.41. Among Princeton’s Ivy League rivals, Harvard ranked 19, Cornell 32, Columbia 9, and Brown 160. Yale, Universit y of Pennsylvania, and Dartmouth apparently did not submit data in response to the Sierra Club questionnaire and were not ranked. The Sierra Magazine survey ranked universities on 11 different criteria, but acknowledged that “while our ranking is fair, transparent, and accurate, we make no claim that it is the ultimate arbiter of campus sustainability.” They added that “many schools that care about the environment don’t appear on Sierra’s list. A s Ms. Weber looked back on the past decade and forward to the future at Princeton, she noted a major change in perspective. “How do we shift our ethos, our identities around these issues?” she asked. “We’ve learned a tremendous

amount about changing the way we do things to have less of a negative impact. We’ve encouraged related academic and research interests. There’s been good foundational work and a lot of terrific thinking on campus.” She emphasized the need for shifting attitudes and behaviors, a shifting relationship to the environment, shifting of basic identity, ”shifting to a place that supports the kind of thinking that leads to a healthy environment.” Describing the Princeton campus of the next decade as “a living laboratory,” Ms. Weber called for a blending of the natural and engineering sciences with the humanities and social and behavioral sciences. “We need all these perspectives to move toward a healthy culture in the next decade.” The new focus for Princeton’s sustainability efforts, Ms. Weber said, would be out ward, tak ing on t he broader challenges of the University’s impact on the community and the world. Over the past decade, the University’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have included the construction of a 27-acre solar field and a geothermal heating and cooling system for the Lakeside graduate housing community; improvements in building and energy plant systems; reducing commuter cars; and encouraging conservation among campus energy users. Conser vation of resource initiatives have included decreasing water and paper use; recycling more construction waste;

increasing donation options for students at move-out; and purchasing more food locally and sustainably. Sustainability operational highlights from 2015 included 12 percent fewer commuter cars, 22 percent less water used, 34 percent less waste per person, 44 percent less pesticide used, 63 percent less paper purchased, 70 percent more local food purchased, and 39 percent more commuters using alternative transportation. The University has funded numerous student and faculty research projects as well as student and staff initiatives, complementing the increasing number of sustainability-related courses and programs offered. The High Meadows Foundation Sustainability Fund was established in 2008 and has supported efforts such as water quality research on Lake Carnegie, green roof per formance monitoring, materials studies, installation of a pilot indoor urban farming system, internships, and solar picnic table design. A renewed sustainability plan will be presented in 2017 as part of the 2026 Campus Plan. “The next Sustainability Plan more fully acknowledges and embraces the idea of sustainability as service to local communities and the world,” Ms. Weber said. “It will emphasize the opportunity to link teaching and research in all disciplines with the campus social and operational systems to explore sustainable solutions.” —Donald Gilpin

originally organized a meeting of neighbors before the municipality invited Kean to participate. He asked Mr. Farahi if the University would comply with local land use ordinances. Mr. Farahi responded that the school already operates in eight municipalities and has not gone against any ordinances in those locations. Kean’s board of trustees will have “a no-change option,” he said. “We want to pass a resolution maintaining the beauty of this thing.” Another resident questioned Mr. Farahi about parking and traffic. He responded that no more than 25 students will use the property at one time, and that they will be transported to and from the site by bus. Tim Quinn, who is running for a seat on Princeton Council, asked if Kean’s board of trustees would be willing to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the town. Mr. Farahi responded that it would not, because “the resolution is what becomes the law of the land for us. That resolution is enforceable for us.” Mayor Liz Lempert, who also attended the meeting, said this week that bringing the school to the gathering was an effort to get initial questions answered and establish a relationship. “That’s so that moving forward, there can be d ia lo g ue. A nd it’s a ls o important for Kean to understand the neighborhood they’re moving into and for them to hear directly

from residents,” she said. “One of t he concer ns is that, as a state entity, they’re not often bound by the same rules as everyone else,” she continued. “That’s why it’s important to have a good relationship of com m u n ic at ion w it h them. From everything they said, it was certainly promising and heartening to hear they want to be good neighbors and would honor our local ordinances. It’s important that they do. They are setting up shop right in the middle of a residential neighborhood.” Mr. Sillars said this week, “I thought they came across as sincere, but didn’t allay all of our concerns. Our concern is long-term. The president has a vision that is kind of consistent with what you would hope somebody would have for the property. But he’s not going to be there forever. Kean is a long way away, and it’s kind of difficult to envision how [the property] fits in with a school 50 miles away.” Following land use ordinances remains a concern. “I’m not willing to concede that they don’t have to follow them,” Mr. Sillars continued. “It’s based on case laws. He [Farahi] kind of implied that they don’t have to. But they don’t seem to be intending to do anything contrary to what the ordinance says.” —Anne Levin

Looking to ensure a permanent presence in Princeton, G ood Gr ief, which provides free programs to hundreds of children after the death of a family member, has purchased a home for its expanding operations at 5 Mapleton Road. G ood Gr ief, which branched out to Princeton from Morristown in 2012 and has seen a growth of 29 percent in demand for its programs in the past year, recently par tnered with HiTops to provide support to local students after the suicide of a Princeton teen. The nonprofit organization moved to Mapleton Road in 2015, after out-

growing its rented space at PrincetonAlumniCorps and Tr init y Church, and has launched a $2 million capital campaign to fully f und the newly acquired building that they had been renting.

“The Art of Contrasts,” a solo exhibition by Robert M. Baum will be on view from November 1 to December 31 at Gallery 13 North, 13 North Union Street, Lambertville. On Saturday, November 5, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., there will be a live scu lpt ing demonst rat ion where Baum will share his clay sculpting techniques and processes. Artist Robert M. Baum retired from teaching and journalism in order to paint and sculpt full time.

Born in Cross Keys, New Jersey, Baum star ted to draw inspiration from nature while sketching landscapes on his grandfather’s farm. After a tour of duty in the Air Force during the Vietnam War, Baum completed his bachelor’s and master’s degrees at what is today Rowan University and built careers in education and journalism while maintaining a gallery presence. His artworks reflect his studies in art. Baum has studied w ith Skip W hitcomb and Albert Handel, well known for their Western scenes.

Mailbox Lempert Has Been Highly Supportive Of Efforts of to Decrease Gun Violence

To the Editor: I have been actively involved in educating our community regarding the issue of gun violence prevention, a topic of the utmost concern for our children, our community, and the country. Mayor Liz Lempert has been highly supportive of the efforts of those working to decrease gun violence. In addition, she has expressed her support for the gun safety technology initiative. Therefore, I urge you join me in voting for her on November 8, 2016. SaLLy L. STEINbErg-brENT Shady brook Lane

Princeton School Board Election: Huge Tax Increases Pre-Ordained

To the Editor: Locally, the Princeton regional School board Election and Mayor Lempert’s published views on public education pre-ordain huge increases in real estate taxes in Princeton. The most important outcome of Princeton’s increasingly excessive expenditures on education is many millions less being available to support alternative, critical communitywide needs. The following, supporting this conclusion, is based on years of experience in leadership and business/ financial management roles in educational institutions in both public and private sectors, including the Princeton area. First, let’s look at just one financial performance metric “actual Per Pupil cost” for comparable “High Performing Districts.” Without citing years of published data, the basic facts are that New Jersey Top 10 rated West Windsor schools per pupil costs are over 30 percent lower than Princeton regional School District’s costs. This gross disparity between districts performing at the highest level in the same county is unjustified and unacceptable. Just because it’s Princeton? The Princeton board and prior superintendent have been questioned publicly to state what specific STuDENT outcomes justify this large disparity. on an annual budget in the $60 million range, this represents $18 million tax dollars that could be used for other alternative community needs. Second, the real question is not whether we can afford it or do our students receive a first rate education. yes to both without question! However, accountability and fiscal responsibility for the public purse demand cost effectiveness in the delivery of public services. The PrS board has not done the job! The good news is, finally, the electorate has a general election vote. We must each year elect a board with a strong sense of their responsibility to the community at large and the impact of their huge costs on other priority government programs. unfortunately, there was no detailed discussion of costs, but pledges of support for whatever is needed for our highly rated district. only a few general statements were voiced on school budgets and efforts to control growth in costs. Last, important and of serious concern, were assertions from some stating their belief that the Princeton regional Schools are “under-funded”! although not mentioned, this follows the same “Princeton Schools are under-funded” published statement by Mayor Lempert. candidate greg Stankiewicz gave his unequivocal support for increased funding of Princeton Schools plus a wholesale endorsement of SaVE our ScHooLS (SoS) activist notions supporting higher taxes for all schools statewide. His spouse is Professor Sass rubin of rutgers, co-founder of SoS, and a strong advocate for teacher’s unions. given key union negotiations early in the new year, can candidate Stankiewicz participate in negotiations or must he recuse himself as having conflicts of interest? rhetorically, on what basis can a candidate for School board before ever serving in Princeton state unequivocally “Princeton schools are ‘underfunded?’” Seriously? Vote for fiscal responsibility and cost effectiveness in delivery of quality education. JoHN cLEarWaTEr governors Lane

To the Editor: Mayoral candidate Peter Marks’s performance at the League of Women Voters debate was stellar! as a native of Princeton and with his background and experience in finance, Marks demonstrated that he not only understands the financial issues affecting our Princeton community, but has practical solutions to these problems. In responding to a question from the audience on the high cost of financing some of the perhaps unwarranted expenditures for the Princeton Public Schools (such as a new auditorium when there are many available in town), Marks stated that he received a unique and high-quality education while attending a one-room school in the country of Jordan when his father was on a teaching sabbatical. Strategic spending — not extravagance — is the key to resolving our financial challenges. With a mother living out her last days, Marks’s response to a question dealing with seniors “aging in place” hit home. His comments demonstrated that love and commitment to family are more than words. Marks responded to the question of housing for seniors by saying that the fact that his father, who suffered from dementia for several years, was able to stay in the home he loved until his death brought him great joy. Marks aims to keep this option available to Princeton residents. Peter Marks is a man who not only “talks the talk, but walks the walk” when it comes to commitment to family. as mayor, he will demonstrate the same commitment to To the Editor: the well - being of the Princeton community. We are writing this letter as a statement of our strong Peter Marks has my vote on November 8 and I hope he support for Debbie bronfeld; she is running for a position has yours as well. on the Princeton board of Education. barbara brocK MouNT We have been friends with Debbie for over 16 years. We Lucas road met when her youngest and our only child were babies, and we have had the pleasure of watching our children grow and flourish, in their own ways, in the Princeton public schools. running for the board of Education makes sense given what we know about Debbie. She has always been civic minded. Her choices of employment, for example, reveal how she wants to help others. For example, she was the executive director of Dress for Success, a not-for-profit organization that helps women become economically independent by providing professional clothing and the tools needed to succeed. In more recent years she has worked for Mercer Street Friends Food bank as a program associate, first as a volunteer, then as an employee. Her responsibilities there include helping people sign up for food stamps, and providing seniors with needed food supplies. In addition, she runs a program that provides backpacks of child-friendly, non-perishable food that goes home each weekend with children in 18 schools across Mercer county. She also helps her community outside of work, most recently spending each Sunday registering Princeton citizens to vote. Debbie has long been a champion of Princeton schools, and she has great long-term reasons to be involved. both her sons have been in the Princeton Public schools for their entire education, first Littlebrook, then JWMS, and now Princeton High School. Her older son, Harrison, recently graduated from Princeton High and her younger son, Max, is now a junior there. Not content to just enjoy the benefits of the Princeton school system from the sidelines, Debbie has long been involved in being an active school parent. She was a member of the Parent Teacher organization at Littlebrook. She volunteered as a room parent, as a worker in Littlebrook’s library and at JWMS’s book fair. She has frequently attended school board meetings as an interested parent. a

Long a Champion of Princeton Schools, Bronfeld Has Reasons to Be Involved

frequent presence at school functions, Debbie has always been counted on to show her support at concerts, football games, and musicals. Want more evidence of her support? Look across the Princeton High School football field: cups on the fence spell out “go Tigers!” “go blue!” in white and blue. Debbie had a hand in that too. Debbie is running for a spot on the board of Education because she wants to work to ensure that all children in Princeton get the quality education that they deserve. We are writing this letter today because we fully support her candidacy. WENDy HEaTH, STEPHEN KaPLaN benjamin rush Lane

Stankiewicz Is Well-Versed in Complexities Of Educational Policy and Public Finance

To the Editor: Writing for ourselves and not on behalf of the board of Education, we enthusiastically support greg Stankiewicz for election to the Princeton board of Education. Even in a well-credentialed community like ours, greg is a standout; he is brilliant and well-versed in the complexities of educational policy and public finance. His professional experience with the New york city education department, the New Jersey state management and budget office, and nonprofit organizations makes greg superbly qualified. It’s hard to recall there ever being a school board candidate with a stronger record of relevant expertise. Even beyond his credentials, greg is distinguished by his principles. He is passionately committed to providing an excellent individualized education to every child in our community, regardless of their background. He believes our public schools should educate and nurture the “whole child,” and that the arts, athletics, community service, social skills, emotional resilience, and wellness are critical to learning and progress. He knows that engaging teaching can only occur when our educators are well-supported and allowed to develop innovative, student-centered practices. He is dedicated to working with the superintendent and administrators in a transparent partnership towards the community’s shared educational aspirations for our children. greg is also one of the most kind-hearted, energetically optimistic people we know. While we regret that we won’t have the privilege of serving with him, we know that our schools will be in good hands if he is elected. Please vote for greg Stankiewicz (ballot position #2) for school board on November 8. MoLLy cHrEIN, aNDrEa SPaLLa Editor’s Note: Ms. Chrein and Ms. Spalla are current members of the Princeton Board of Education. Their terms expire on January 1, 2017.

Appealing to Mayor, Council to Reinstate Independent Civil Rights Commission

To the Editor: I thank mayor and council for considering the reinstatement of the civil rights commission as an independent agency. I am a former member of the commission directed by Ms. Joan Hill. I’ve also used their services. In 72 years I have experienced a good deal of racial discrimination and/or harassment. one incident stands out. a Sicklerville construction company was hired by the borough to construct/reconstruct griggs corner. While there was a gaping hole, the company parked their trucks in the middle of Witherspoon Street from Hulfish to Paul robeson Place. as I walked home for lunch one afternoon, the workers were sitting around in their trucks and on the steps of the adjacent buildings having lunch. as I passed, one of the truck drivers sitting high in his truck started loudly singing a song about “Jigger boos.” The other workers joined the chorus. I could not believe my ears. Since they were hired by the borough, I called the borough to make a report. Surely someone would assure me they would investigate. My call was transferred to many extensions. Finally, I was able to speak with someone and this is what I was told: “walk another way,” or “just ignore them.” Needless to say, following this exchange I was seething. I called Ms. Hill and told her my experience. She too felt their response was unacceptable. I also called my pastor to alert him that others in the John Witherspoon neighborhood more than likely had been or would be harassed as they passed the site. My concern was that if one of the young men from the neighborhood was approached in this way, there would be bloodshed. My Pastor also contacted Ms. Hill. When I returned to my office I wrote a letter to the mayor of the borough. However before I could mail my letter, Ms. Hill, whom everyone knew was a “no nonsense” director, had taken care of the matter. The next day she checked with me to see if I had problems going to or from work. I had none. She told me that the contractor was put on notice that further incidents would mean they would be off the job. The point is, I had complete confidence in going directly to the civil rights commission with my concern, not through another borough department. While I know times have changed for the better to some degree, many people in the community would prefer going directly to an independent civil rights commission that they know will address all claims in a timely manner and that has their back. I’ve heard that “This is Princeton. We don’t need an independent civil rights commission. Princeton does not have these problems.” We know this is not true. This is why I am appealing to the Mayor and council to reinstate the independent status of the civil rights commission whose sole charge would be matters of civil rights. JacquELINE L. SWaIN Lytle Street

To the Editor: I have known Alex Martin and his wife Maria Sophocles since they moved to Princeton in 2007 from Italy with their four children. For nearly ten years, they have been active members of the community, supporters of the arts and a number of charities, and they have been strong advocates of educational excellence. I was delighted to learn that Alex was seeking a position on the Princeton Board of Education because I believe that he would be a real asset to our school system. From my many discussions with him, I know that he is sympathetic to the needs of a community like ours, which values public education but also understands the challenges of working within a restricted budget. Alex is a good listener and I have witnessed him being tough as well as fair. His four children will all be graduates of Princeton High School in the coming years and therefore he has a vested interest in making improvements where necessary and even changes if appropriate. He has always been approachable and would be receptive to new ideas for approaching old problems. I believe that Princeton is looking for a person who can effect positive change. Alex should be at the top of everyone’s list to help make that happen. I endorse him with enthusiasm and confidence that he will bring commitment and talent to the Princeton School Board.

Viewing Liz Lempert Through the Lens Of Three Generations Residing in Princeton

To the Editor: In 2025, my son will graduate from Princeton High School, 75 years after his great-grandparents arrived in Princeton to raise a young family. They chose Princeton for the same reasons I moved back to raise mine, as did my mother before me. We cherish and have benefited from the intellectual vibrancy, excellent school system, thriving cultural life, urban proximity, progressive values, and diverse international population. Princeton’s appeal, as evidenced by the increasing demand for real estate, has led to a critical juncture in the town’s history: how can we preserve the essential character and qualities which make it so desirable without retreating to a nostalgia that paralyzes our capacity for action? liz lempert has demonstrated an exceptional ability to actively engage and personally connect with a wide variety of community members. This will equip her in facilitating a coherent planning process that is ethical,

equitable, economically productive, and environmentally sound. In her time as mayor, I’ve had the chance to view liz through the lens of three generations residing in Princeton — each with its own set of distinct needs and concerns — and to witness her competence in finding balanced, innovative solutions that strengthen the social fabric of our community. She understands that an effective leader must create the conditions for greater civic engagement and has worked with Council to make local government more open and accessible. liz is the ultimate antidote to forces that threaten our collective well-being: isolation, entitlement, and indifference. With her as mayor residents are heard, supported, valued, and included in bringing about the changes they envision. Please join me on November 8 in voting to reelect Mayor lempert, and in working with her the next four years to shape the future of Princeton. MIA SACkS Terhune Road

HomeFront Bears Witness to Families Unable to House, Feed, Clothe Their Kids

To the Editor: Over 2,100 homeless or formerly homeless kids went back to school with new clothes, new shoes, and new back packs filled with necessary school supplies because of the wonderful caring community we live in. I am once again deeply gratified to report that HomeFront’s Back to School campaign was met with overwhelming support from Mercer County residents. Many individuals, corporations, congregations, and organizations contributed generously so that HomeFront kids were able to start the new school year with confidence and a feeling of fitting in. HomeFront bears witness daily to families who are unable to house, feed, or clothe their children. While the back to school donations may seem like a small step, they contribute greatly to the children’s self-esteem, which is a critical foundation for their success. The donations also fit into a much bigger picture of getting these children to school and helping them to stay there to finish their educations — and ultimately for them to become productive, self-sufficient adults. Thank you for all you do for these children. It is a delight to see their excitement as they begin their day with a full backpack and a new outfit. With your caring support, we are fighting poverty and have hope that we can end it one day. CONNIE MERCER Executive Director, HomeFront

Urging Everyone to Vote All the Way Down the Ballot on November 8

To the Editor: I write to share a few observations about running for Princeton Council and to urge everyone to vote all the way down the ballot on Nov. 8. The sample ballots released last week list “No Nomination Made” in the Republican column for Princeton Council, but neither Jenny Crumiller nor I saw this as a license to take the fall off. With Mayor liz lempert, we’ve run an active campaign centered on Princeton and recognizing the broader implications of this election. We’ve walked the neighborhoods listening to the concerns of citizens, sharing our knowledge of local resources, and offering our vision for an inclusive, welcoming, and well-run Princeton. Our local campaign will culminate at a Coffee With the Candidates event on Saturday, Nov. 5, 8:30-10 a.m. at the joint Princeton/New Jersey For Hillary Headquarters, 138 Nassau St., second floor. We hope you can join us. What I’ve learned campaigning with them is that liz and Jenny are remarkable leaders with a passion for a Princeton that works for everyone, from those born here to those who are moving in this week. We believe government can be a force for positive change in our town. As Democrats, our fundamental motivation is to do the most good for the most people. Jenny, liz and I were early adaptors of Hillary Clinton’s “Stronger Together” slogan and it proved to be a fitting choice for our joint campaign. We believe the same is true for Princeton: we are stronger together. TIM QuINN Wilton Street

BOOK REVIEW

The Love Song of Emily Brontë, or Halloween With Heathcliff and Cathy

magine a neighborhood dominated by bookish types who costume their children in the garb of their dark favorites every Halloween. Not for them the everyday Draculas, Darth Vaders, Freddy Krugers, and Norman Bateses. No, this is the domain of wee Lady Macbeths and Crookback Richards. Hartley and Derwent, the twin sons of a Coleridge scholar, would go as The Ancient Mariner and the Albatross. The Miltonist down the block would slap a pair of satanic wings on his Johnny, while the Mary Shelley purist next door would send the Creature toddling into the October night, perhaps borrowing some ideas from Showtime’s Penny Dreadful. The married Americanists in the Cape Cod on the corner would answer with a pint-sized Captain Ahab. Imagining Heathcliff This Halloween fantasy came about when I was pondering the challenge of costuming Emily Brontë’s Heathcliff for Halloween, the problem being that most people know him as a brooding romantic hero type played by the likes of Laurence Olivier, Timothy Dalton, and Ralph Fiennes, or they associate the name, worse yet, with the wisecracking cartoon cat whose real-life alter ego wouldn’t last a minute in the company of his brutal literary namesake. To fathom how far from the truth of Brontë’s Heathcliff these filmic adaptations have traveled, it’s necessary to comprehend the character in all his lurid Wuthering Heights glory. For Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the novel and character are one: it’s “a fiend of a book — an incredible monster,” with the action “laid in hell, — only it seems places and people have English names there.” Harold Bloom sees Emily Brontë’s monster of love as “a hero-villain” with “the sublimity of Captain Ahab and some of the darkened splendor of Milton’s Satan,” his passion for Cathy Earnshaw “so monumental and so destructive that it seems inadequate and imprecise to call it love.” But love it is, a mad mystic relentless possessive-to-the-outer-limits passion. And just as Heathcliff is nothing like Olivier or Fiennes, Cathy, that wild woman of the moors “wailing for her demon lover” (a Victorian critic once termed Wuthering Heights “a kind of prose Kubla Khan, a nightmare of the superheated imagination”) has little in common with Merle Oberon or Juliette Binoche. In fact, Cathy is Heathcliff, as she can’t help exulting in the novel’s most quoted line, and her creator is an elemental force, “a raven, not a dove,” according to Emily’s elder sister Charlotte, who considered Heathcliff “a man’s shape inhabited by demon life, a ghoul.” Another piece of Halloween rhetoric comes by way of the appalled American who reviewed the novel when it appeared under Emily’s pen name Ellis Bell: “How a human being could have attempted such a book as the present without committing suicide before he had finished a dozen chapters, is a mystery. It is a compound of vulgar depravity and unnatural horrors.”

Emily Dying While one early biographer painted a pre-Raphaelite picture of the dying 30-year-old Emily “sitting by the hearth and combing her long hair, till the comb falls from her fingers and falls into the grate,” the harrowing truth was delivered by Charlotte in a biographical notice: “Never in all her life had she lingered over any task that lay before her, and she did not linger now. She sank rapidly. She made haste to leave us. Yet, while physically she perished, mentally she grew stronger than we had yet known her. Day by day, when I saw with what a front she met suffering, I looked on her with an anguish of wonder and love. I have seen nothing like it; but, indeed, I have never seen her parallel in anything. Stronger than a man, simpler than a child, her nature stood alone. The awful point was, that while full of ruth for others, on herself she had no pity …. To s t a n d by and witness t h is, and not dare to remons t rate, was a pain no words can render.” Liberty Referring to Emily’s homesick ness as a 16-year-old student boarding at Mrs. Wooler’s school, Charlotte describes her sister’s love of the moors. “Flowers brighter than the rose bloomed in the blackest of the heath for her; — out of a sullen hollow in a livid hill-side, her mind could make an Eden. She found in the bleak solitude many and dear delights; and not the least and best-loved was — liberty. Liberty was the breath of Emily’s nostrils; without it she perished …. She had only been three months at school; and it was some years before the experiment of sending her from home was again ventured on.” That venture came in February 1842 when Emily accompanied Charlotte to school in Brussels for six months, where their teacher saw genius in the younger sister “impaired only by her stubborn tenacity of will, which rendered her obtuse to all reasoning where her own wishes, or her own sense of right, was concerned. She should have been a man — a great navigator. Her powerful reason would have deduced new spheres of discovery from the knowledge of the old; and her strong, imperious will would never have been daunted by opposition or difficulty;

never have given way but with life.” But there was no “should have been a man” in someone who, like her Catherine, was Heathcliff, as she was Linton and Nelly and old Joseph and the animal life and the landscape of her domain. Virginia and Emily Writing of Wuthering Heights in The Common Reader, Virginia Woolf imagines Emily Brontë looking out upon “a world cleft into gigantic disorder” and feeling “within her the power to unite it in a book.” It is the “suggestion of power underlying the apparitions of human nature and lifting them up into the presence of greatness that gives the book its huge stature among other novels.” For Woolf, “no boy in literature has a more vivid existence” than Heathcliff while Catherine and the daughter she gives birth to as she dies “are the most lovable women in English fiction. It is as if she could tear up all that we k now hu man beings by, and fill these unrecognisable transparences with such a gust of life that they transcend reality. Hers, then, is the rarest of all powers. She could free life from its dependence on facts; with a few touches indicate the spirit of a face so that it needs n o b o d y ; by speaking of the moor make the wind blow and the thunder roar.” In Our Time Imagining a healthier incarnation of the Brontë sisters in our time, I can see Anne and Charlotte holding their own in the book chat/book club/book tour universe, but less so Emily. Already a poet of great power, “stronger-than-a-man” Emily would have sought a more dynamic outlet for the residual power enlivening her creations, Cathy, mystic maid of the moors, and love’s monster Heathcliff. Why not turn her poems into songs, performing them herself? Speaking of other media, the perennial challenge of filming Wuthering Heights is that forces as wild and deranged as Cathy and Heathcliff can’t be captured on film. Even the most inspired director and actors would be hard put to sustain the magic for the requisite two hours of image and incident and assorted characters. What is needed is something like a cry from

the beyond, the equivalent of that “prose Kubla Khan,” for in its essence Wuthering Heights is a poem. As Woolf suggests “it was not enough for Emily Brontë to write a few lyrics, to utter a cry, to express a creed. In her poems she did this once and for all, and her poems will perhaps outlast her novel. But she was novelist as well as poet …. And so we reach these summits of emotion not by rant or rhapsody but by hearing a girl sing old songs to herself as she rocks in the branches of a tree.” No wonder then that it took a singer and a song to bring the Cathy-rapping-the-window excitement of Wuthering Heights into the 20th century. Kate Bush’s Cathy Born, like Emily, on July 30, some 140 years later, Catherine “Kate” Bush, age 19, sits down at the piano on a full moon night in 1977 and composes, sings, and eventually records a song sung by Cathy’s passionate spirit. It’s delirious, ghostly music, full of swirling movement, it comes at you with word-clusters “too hot, too greedy,” “hated you, loved you,” “bad dreams in the night,” of “windy moors,” of a voice crying “Heathcliff, it’s me, Cathy, I’m so cold, let me in your window.” “I loved writing it,” says Bush, whose first glimpse of the tale came with the closing minutes of a BBC production of Wuthering Heights. After reading the book, “I thought the story was so strong. This young girl in an era when the female role was so inferior and she was coming out with this passionate, heavy stuff …. It was a real challenge to precis the whole mood of a book into such a short piece of prose. Also when I was a child I was always called Cathy not Kate and I just found myself able to relate to her as a character. It’s so important to put yourself in the role of the person in a song. There’s no half measures. When I sing that song I am Cathy.” Sung by a Ghost The people at EMI didn’t want “Wuthering Heights” to be the unknown singer’s debut single. A song based on a work of literature? A song about possession sung by a demonic spirit? As Lucasta Miller puts it in The Brontë Myth, this “unearthly single” was sung “in a freakishly high soprano.” Some listeners found it terrifying, others found it hard to listen to. The original release date, between All Hallow’s Eve and Guy Fawkes Day 1977, was postponed to January 1978. Go figure. What better timing for a song sung by a ghost than the Halloween season? hatever the release issues were, a few weeks after it came out in January 1978, Kate Bush’s distillation of Emily Brontë topped the U.K. singles chart and remains high in lists of the top British singles of all time.

Poem by C.K. Williams Is Added To the D&R Greenway Poetry Trail A new addition to the Scott and Hella McVay Poetry Trail, “Garden” by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet C.K. Williams (1936-2015), has been dedicated. Published in the collection Vigil (1997), the poem was written from le Parc de Bagatelle, in Neuilly, France, but the place “whose serenity lifts and enfolds me, as a swirl of breeze lifts the leaves and enfolds them” could also describe the trail that begins behind D&R Greenway Land Trust’s Johnson Education Center off Rosedale Road. There are poems posted by, among others, Shakespeare, John Clare, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, and poets associated with Princeton, including W.S. Merwin, Gerald Stern, Paul Muldoon, and Galway Kinnell. A Pr inceton professor emeritus, C.K. Williams and his French-born wife, Catherine Mauger, divided their time between Hopewell and Normandy, France. While in New Jersey, they frequently visited Greenway Meadows and the Poetry Trail with their dog, Bwindi. “Garden” was selected for the trail by Ms. Mauger and her son, Jed. “It was a poem I loved, it was the right length and about the right thing,” said Ms. Mauger. “He wrote many poems about nature, about storms and trees, but this one has such a peace in it. It’s a lot about him and all of us.” According to D&R Greenway President and CEO Linda Mead, the location for this very first addition to the Scott and Hella Poetry Trail was chosen “because of its sweeping view of the lower fields, essentially a natural garden.” Mr. Williams served on the Princeton University faculty from 1995 to 2013, where he taught creative writing, introductory and advanced poetry, dramatic adaptation and literary translation. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 2000 for his book Repair, also a finalist for the National Book Award. The Singing won the National Book Award for 2003; and Flesh and Blood received the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1987. Fall-

Current PSRC Fall Conference on Caregiving, Including Workshops, Is Scheduled for Nov. 12th Caregiving in the U.S. is at an all-time high. According to the AARP report “Caregiving in the U.S.,” an estimated 43.5 million adults in the countr y prov ided unpaid care to an adult or child in the prior 12 months. Eighty-five percent care for a relative, nearly one half of whom are over age 75. 10 percent care for a spouse, and 10 percent of the caregivers are themselves over age 75. 60 percent of the recipients have at least one chronic health condition, and nearly one quarter have dementia. The population of the U.S. is aging. Every day, 10,000 Baby Boomers turn 65, and this will continue for several

years. Caregiving is rapidly becoming a critical issue. “Family caregiving can be an eight to 10-year journey,” explains Susan W. Hoskins, LCSW, director of the Princeton Senior Resource Center (PSRC). “It is both rewarding and taxing, often starting small, but in time, the load gets heavier and more complex. Many families do not have the financial resources to use care outside the family or will need to use a blend of paid and family care. A family caregiver needs to have knowledge of the disease process, physical and emotional care, nutrition, finance, benefit programs, family dynamics, end of life, and how to manage

all the components. “This awareness led us to select family caregiving as the theme of PSRC’s annual fall conference and the title ‘Compassion for Self and Others.’” Care System “Selecting this topic has been very personal for me,” cont i nu e s Ms. Hos k i n s. “This year, my parents began to need more help, and I learned that it is a lot easier to coach other people on how to manage all the aspects of care than to listen to my own counsel. I had to learn about how to navigate the care system where they live, to find my ‘team’ among the many doctors, nurses, social workers, and other staff. I had to figure out when the system worked for us, and when it didn’t. “I had to screw up my courage to advocate for my parents, to ask for meetings and speak up when the ‘plan’ was not good for them. I had to change my schedule to be available more often to add shopping, bill-paying, appointment, and calendar management to my tasks, and to start asking ‘Am I the only one who can do this?’ T he need for creat ive problem-solving is one of the major challenges, points out Ms. Hoskins. For example, “If we can’t garden in

Caregiving OptiOns: “We feel that as part of our mission as a senior center for aging well, we want to educate members of the community about aging, and give them information about resources and opportunities. this is the focus of our annual fall conference, providing topics of interest to seniors and their families.” susan W.

I am grateful to my husband who accompanies my parents to medical appointments when I can’t get away from work and for the nurses who come every morning to administer medications and check in; and to the staff and friends who call with reminders of events to attend. I am grateful to my caregiver groups

Debbie Bronfeld for Board of Education

We are writing to urge our friends and neighbors to vote for Debbie Bronfeld for Board of Education on November 8th. Debbie is the mother of two children, Harrison a freshman in college and Max in 11th grade. Both boys attended Princeton Public Schools, starting at Littlebrook Elementary, then John Witherspoon Middle School and finally Princeton High School. She has an MBA and currently serves in the non-profit sector with previous work experience in corporate inventory and operations. Debbie has a history of service in our community, volunteering for the PTO at Littlebrook and JW, and currently as a member of the PHS Band PTO. Debbie understands the issues affecting all families throughout the community. One of Debbie’s key initiatives is a multi-year capacity plan to manage district growth proactively. We believe this is a wise proposal that will match the district’s resources with our needs to ensure taxpayers’ investments in our schools are well managed. As a Board member, Debbie will also work to close the opportunity gap by building community alliances to address the needs that affect learning on and off campus. Finally, Debbie plans to build bridges between the school board and the teachers before the next contract negotiation. Debbie believes that if we build alliances and relationships during the good times, we, as a community, will get through the tough times together, more easily with care for each other. We trust Debbie to work on behalf of all our children. We strongly endorse Debbie Bronfeld for the Board of Education and urge you to join us in voting for her on November 8.

and friends who have listened and made suggestions when I was at a loss. It can truly take a village to help people to age with dignity and self-determination.” Telford J. Taylor, Director of Pastoral Care and Training, Robert Wood Johnson University, Hamilton, will deliver the keynote address for this year’s conference, and it will be followed by five workshops. Mr. Taylor holds a diplomate in pastoral supervision, and is board certified as a clinical chaplain at the College of Pastoral Supervision and Psychotherapy, with a clinical Fellowhship in hospice and palliative care. His keynote address will emphasize the importance of support groups for spouses and children of aging parents, sharing the challenges of caregiving, and being kind to yourself. As Ms. Hoskins points out, “This year, we want to put the emphasis on the need to be compassionate both for ourselves as caregivers and for those we care for. We need to interrupt the voice that says, ‘If only I was a better person, I could … ’; ‘if only I had … ’; or ‘why can’t she do that anymore …?’; ‘why is he so angry?’ After all, the caregiver can

be dealing with the demands of aging parents, working at an outside job, having kids at home, who need help with homework, and still be trying to get dinner ready on time. This is a lot to handle. Continental Breakfast “As caregivers, we need to take care of ourselves so that we don’t become overwhelmed, depressed, isolated, and sick ourselves. When these things happen, we can’t provide the care that is needed, and we don’t have the resources to respond as care needs increase. Sometimes, the best care we can give is to know and accept our limitations and ask for help.” The conference, at the Suzanne Patterson Building located on 1 Monument Drive, begins at 8:30 a.m. with registration and a continental breakfast provided by Bear Creek Assisted Living in West Windsor, followed by the keynote address and a question and answer session. At 9:45, the resource fair, featuring a table with information from local caregiving services and other resources, will be available for those wishing to obtain additional information. Workshops begin at 10 a.m. and include the following: “Practical Strategies for Family Caregivers” with Liz Charbonneau, certified senior advisor and owner of Homewatch Caregivers in Princeton. This workshop will provide an overview of strategies, including safety precautions, an understanding of assessing care needs, and identifying supplemental outside care resources, and medication management. The second workshop is “Residential Care Options,” led by Connie Pizarro, a certified senior advisor and owner of Oasis Senior Advisors, a franchise which provides a free service helping families locate an appropriate assisted living or memory care community. She will describe the various services, features, and amenities to look for and where to find them, in order to discover a good fit for the family’s and senior’s needs. “Activities for People with Dementia” will be led by Helen Bowerman, RN, MSN, Director of Nursing at Buckingham Place Adult Medical Continued on Next Page

Day Care and Home Care. She is a geriatric clinical and managerial nurse, geriatric mental health nurse in dementia and Alzheimer’s care, and performs psychosocial care and education and wellness programs. The focus in this workshop is on ways to help someone be physically active and cognitively engaged; meaningful activities to help with late afternoon restlessness and agitated behaviors. Long Term Care Planning Fiona Van Dyck, founding partner of Van Dyck Law, LLC, with offices in Princeton and Newtown, Pa., is focused exclusively on estate planning, eldercare law, and estate administration. Her workshop will answer questions such as when should one plan for long term care? The aim of the workshop is to assist individuals and families in creating the estate or long term care plan that will provide peace of mind. “Staying Organized (and Sane)” is the theme of the last workshop. Soni Pahade, Director of Admission and Marketing for Morris Hall Meadows in Lawrenceville, has a Master of Science in Gerontology and more than 20 years experience working with elders and their families. This workshop will discuss how to keep track of important information, including medical history, medication list, medical appointments, financial and other key paperwork. Lunch, provided by Brandywine Senior Living, will be served after the workshops. Ms. Hoskins wants people to know that individuals of all ages can be engaged in caregiving. “We help people understand that whatever age you are, you could be involved in caring for someone — grandparents, for example. People might have been brought up by their grandparents, and are now caring for them. “The caregiver can be a care coordinator, arranging help from the neighborhood and community. Various individuals can come together to help with shopping, paperwork, and provide care and companionship. “I want people to hold onto the idea that they are doing the best they can. Caregiving is a reality and a constant. Even when you are not actively involved in providing care at a given time, it is still on your mind. I meet once a month with caregivers of aging parents or spouses, and we all have a hard time being kind to ourselves. It’s the pressure and build up of stress. Caregivers need to recognize that they can become exhausted. “I call it ‘Caregiver Creep’. It’s a continuum. For example, you start out just dropping off the person at the grocery store, and then later go back to pick them up. But then, you find you need to walk through the store with them in case they become lost or confused. So, you don’t have time to go for coffee or tend to your own errands. Next, you may need to put the groceries away, and now, perhaps you need to do the cooking. 10-Minute Walk “So, now, what started as an hour of helping out has

become much more timeconsuming, and you don’t have time for yourself that can be helpful, such as yoga, exercise, or lunch with a friend. “Also, caregivers tend to put off doctors’ appointments, get ting mammo grams, etc. You don’t want to put your own health at risk. It is really important to do things for yourself. You can start small: take a 10-minute walk, try some kind of meditation, or just something enjoyable you can do for yourself. Be in the moment, and try not to think about that ‘To Do’ list.” It is also difficult to recognize and accept the role reversal, notes Ms. Hoskins. “Parents used to be in charge and now that falls to you. You may have to say, ‘Dad. maybe you shouldn’t be driving anymore,’ and he may resist and possibly become resentful.” Also, she adds, all situations are different, and the personalities are different. Some people accept the new conditions as best they can, but others can be upset and irritable. “At PSRC, we want to offer all the information to help people find the

resources they need. Our conference is a way for individuals to realize there are many services and resources out there that can guide them as they serve as caregivers. It can be lonely for a caregiver, and this is an opportunity to connect with each other and share concerns and information. “For me, t he moment that makes it all wor thwhile is when people leave and say ‘Thank you, thank you. I learned so much.’ They are so grateful. They can be overwhelmed when they come in. We’re all juggling a lot of pieces. It’s a big puzzle to put together, and the puzzle pieces keep changing. You need to have a lot of flexibility, and try to make each moment count for the one you are caring for and for yourself.” The conference, at the Suzanne Patterson Building at 1 Monument Drive, will take place on November 12, from 8 :30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Online registration is available at prince tonsenior.org. Suggested donation is $5 at the door. 150 people are expected to attend. —Jean Stratton

MUSIC REVIEW

Princeton Pro Musica Opens Season With Haydn’s Classic “Missa in Augustiis”

n its season opener at Richardson Auditorium this past weekend, Princeton Pro Musica returned to its roots in the great choral masses of music history. Pro Musica Artistic Director Ryan James Brandau centered Sunday afternoon’s concert on one of the more dramatic masses of Franz Joseph Haydn, combined with smaller choral works similarly grounded with Classical melodies and clear-cut structures. Dr. Brandau combined the 100-voice Pro Musica with a Classicallysized orchestra and the established Polydora Ensemble, whose members doubled as soloists for the Haydn mass. Although it might seem the concert’s opening Arvo Pärt’s Fratres for solo violin and orchestra would not fit with 18th and 19th-century choral music, Dr. Brandau found a connection between this work and Haydn’s Missa in Angustiis in musical drama conveyed through agitated and tempestuous orchestration. Pärt’s 1977 one-movement work was composed in his signature style of tintinnabuli, a style reflecting Pärt’s use of mystical and chant music. Violinist Johanna Novom, who also served as concertmaster of the accompanying orchestra for the concert, began Fratres with a feathery solo violin part, showing the work’s tintinnabuli belllike character and icy feeling. The solo violin line was joined by a rich rolling lower string melody, and woodblock percussion (played by William Trigg) which gauged dramatic intensity as the work moved along. Throughout the piece, Dr. Brandau kept his conducting precise, and both percussion and strings were right with him. The four short choral works presented were from the 19th century, but were based in a Classical structure and style which can be traced back to Haydn. The four-voice Polydora Ensemble performed two selections from Johannes Brahms’ Opus 112 vocal quartets, expertly accompanied by pianist Yuri Kim. From the outset of “Sehnsucht,” it was clear that soprano Margaret Dudley and mezzo-soprano Helen Karloski were perfectly matched, with equal vibrato and timbre. This perfect blend continued through “Nächtens,” complemented by baritone Jesse Blumberg’s precise text declamation. The full Pro Musica chorus continued this approach to 19th-century choral music with a rich and flowing performance of Felix Mendelssohn’s Verleih uns Frieden,

one of the most mellifluous works in the repertoire. Mendelssohn’s shorter choral works have often been under performed, and this short strophic musical prayer is a good reason why more choruses should look at this repertory. Following the opening rich melody from the celli of the orchestra, the singers of Pro Musica demonstrated a well-blended sound saving their fullest volume for the closing assurance that God alone fights for us. Chorus, orchestra and quartet came together for Haydn’s Missa in Angustiis, subtitled the “Lord Nelson” Mass. Composed roughly a decade before Haydn’s death, Missa in Angustiis came at the height of Haydn’s career but from a dark place in world history as Austria struggled with continual assaults by Napoleon. The news that Admiral Nelson had defeated Napoleon coincided with early performances of this work, and Haydn’s “mass for troubled times” acquired a new moniker which has remained to this day. Conductor Brandau and the chorus began the opening “Kyrie” with sufficient drama, especially aided by a trio of crisp trumpets in the orchestra. Much of the tension in this work is carried by the soprano soloist, who is required to shift on a dime between high-speed coloratura and expressive lyricism. Ms. Dudley was solidly up to the task, both effortlessly spinning off the melismatic passages and conveying the more poignant sections. When joined by Ms. Karloski, especially in the more expressive sections of the “Credo,” the two voices were well matched. Ms. Dudley also commanded well the “Benedictus,” which unlike the more reflective “Benedictus” vocal quartets of Mozart masses, was a clear dramatic cry to God, becoming more plaintive with the closing text. hroughout the mass, the choral sound of Pro Musica was clean and precise, bringing out dynamic swells and solid control of the fugal sections. Works of this type are the bread and butter of Pro Musica’s performance history, and the ensemble held up its vocal tone throughout the mass with good diction and solid transitions to quicker movements. The orchestra compiled for this concert was responsive to Dr. Brandau’s conducting gestures, and solid in subtle accompaniment in music which is always enjoyable for the orchestra to play and for choruses to sing. —Nancy Plum

Princeton Pro Musica’s next concert will be on Sunday, December 11 at 4 p.m. in the Patriots Theater in Trenton. Joined by the Trenton Children’s Chorus, music for the holiday season will be featured. For information call (609) 6935122 or visit www.princetonpromusica.org.

Work by Princeton-Bred Choreographer Is on the Program of Pennsylvania Ballet Growing up in Princeton, Brian Sanders was captivated by two things: ballet and gymnastics. The 1984 graduate of Princeton High School divided his time between Princeton Ballet School and Alt’s Gym. Initially, ballet won out. Mr. Sanders spent several years studying at Princeton Ballet with the late Alexei Yudenich, who was a principal dancer with T h e Pen ns ylva n ia B a l let. So there is something gratifying about the fact that a piece by Mr. Sanders, now a choreographer with his own company, is being performed by the Pennsylvania Ballet next weekend. Chicken Bone Brain shares a program with works by George Balanchine and British choreographer David Dawson at Philadelphia’s Merriam Theatre November 10-13. “The fact that it’s The Pennsylvania Ballet is one of the things that has been wonderful about this experience,” said Mr. Sanders during a telephone conversation. His own style, honed by a decade dancing with the inventive company MOMIX, makes use of gymnastic movement, giant props, found objects, and an element of daring — not exactly what ballet dancers are used to. Chicken Bone Brain has been a challenge

“Some want to do it, some don’t,” he said. The music is a mix of electronics and soundscape. “I tried to get the orchestra to play the song, but it didn’t work out,” he continued. “The piece has a little bit to do with my struggle as a creative artist. I feel like I have a chicken bone brain, and it’s about how I deal with that in this world.” Mr. Sanders, who lives in Philadelphia, still has fam ily members in t he Princeton area. “My father founded The Institute of Philosophy in Princeton many years ago,” he said. “My sister is in Trenton and my mother is in Lawrenceville. My father had six kids between my mom and stepmom. There’s a 20-year span between my oldest brother and youngest sister.” Back when he was first studying dance, Mr. Sanders was inspired by the choreography of showman Bob Fosse. He also became enamored of Pilobolus, the unusual dance company that was the forerunner of MOMIX. He joined MOMIX after college and worked closely with one of its founders, Moses Pendleton. Brian Sanders “It was a unique and The dancers climb up on dynamic fit,” Mr. Sandgiant, 12-foot bones that ers said. “I was athletic are suspended in the air. and acrobatic and loved for them, he admits. “The dancers have been great. The first day or two of rehearsal they all loved it, but the next day they were covered in bruises,” Mr. Sanders said. “It’s all ver y new for them. But they defy logic dancing on their toes all day, so the idea of figuring out how to make something physically challenging look weightless transfers, no matter what.” Chicke n B one Bra in was inspired by “L ook W hat T hey’ve Done To My Song, Ma,” a song Mr. Sanders knew as a child.

performing in nightclubs when I was younger. I’d be hanging over the dance floor, suspending myself in any way that I could. It became one of my creative expressions.” Pennsylvania Ballet’s artistic director Angel Corella is looking forward to seeing how audiences react to Mr. Topics Sanders’ work. “I met him less than a year ago,” Mr.

Corella recently recalled. “I went to see his company and when I walked in, I was shocked. There were boxes of hay everywhere. Dancers were doing the most incredible things, flying, on ropes. I had never seen anything like it. This will be something very different for us.” —Anne Levin

The company is based in Philadelphia and has become a favorite of the annual FringeArts Festival mounted each fall. The troupe’s name reflects its focus on found objects that are turned into props. “After living in New York, I had become a kind of dumpster diver,” Mr. Sanders said. “Part of it is my practical nature. In one of my first shows, I used a lot of found objects. I decided to do a show called ‘JUNK,’ and I ended up keeping the name and making it the name of my company. It’s been known as JUNK ever since. Mr. Sanders recently finished a show called Urban Scuba, which “encapsulates all of my found junk,” he said. “It’s basically 20 years of JUNK. Inside all of this stuff, although it has a sort of grungy, urban feel, there is an aesthetic grace and beauty. I still maintain this found object aesthetic but I try not to think of it as stuff somebody would find in a dumpster.” Grav it y- def ying aer ial work of ten figures into Mr. Sanders’ work. “That c o m e s f r o m m y b a c kground with gymnastics and MOM I X ,” he s aid. “I also did some work with a circus and a lot of

Tony Award-Winning Musical at McCarter

“ONCE”: Seniors Sam Gravitte and Maddie Meyers in rehearsal for the Lewis Center for the Arts’s production of the musical “Once.” The show runs November 11, 12, 17, 18, and 19 at 8 p.m. in the Berlind Theatre at McCarter Theatre Center. Tickets are available at (609) 258-2787 and online at arts.prince ton.edu/once. (Photo Credit: Graham Phillips)

The Lewis Center for the Arts at Princeton University presents the Tony Award-winning musical Once, directed by senior Graham Phillips and featuring seniors Sam Gravitte and Maddie Meyers, on November 11, 12, 17, 18 and 19 at 8 p.m. in the Berlind Theatre at McCarter Theatre Center. Once tells the gripping tale of a Dublin street musician who is on the verge of giving up on his dreams, when he unexpectedly meets a girl who is fascinated by his haunting love songs. Performed in the show’s characteristic actor-musicianship style — in which the characters play the accompanying instruments as the show’s band — Once is subtle and sincere in both its themes and aesthetic, breaking from the traditional Broadway boy-meets-girl romance, and is a testament to

the power of music bringing people together. The play is a musical stage adaptation of the 2007 film by John Carney, with the new book written by Irish playwright Enda Walsh. Music and lyrics are by the same team who wrote the film’s original music — Academy Awardwinning duo Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová. Hansard and Irglová won the Oscar for the Best Original Song “Falling Slowly” written for the film. The musical premiered on Broadway in 2012, won eight Tony awards including Best Musical, Best Actor, and Best Book for Walsh and only recently closed in 2015. The show also toured nationally from 2013 through May of 2016. Tickets for Once are $12 general admission and $11 for students and seniors when purchased in advance, and $17 general admission and $15 for students and seniors

purchased the day of performances at the McCarter box office. Tickets are available through McCarter ticketing, which offers online ordering and print-at-home tickets. To purchase tickets over the phone, call (609) 258-ARTS (2787). To purchase tickets online visit: arts.princeton. edu/once ———

According to VOICES Founder/Music Director Dr. Lyn Ransom, “VOICES has been performing works by Guilmartin since 2001 and always finds the experience rewarding. Ken’s rhythms are alive, energizing even lyrical pieces (and sometimes challenging us!); his melodies are hauntingly beautiful at times, at other times dramatic and stark. The drama, melody, and rhythm work together to draw singers and audiences in. We are honored to help Ken celebrate his first 50 years of composing this November!” Advance tickets are $25 ($30 at door) for Thursday evening’s concert and $50 ($60 at door) for Sunday afternoon’s concert and reception.

World War II Biopic Portrays Battlefield Heroism of Army Medic

ell (Vince Vaughn) that a unit was no stronger than its weakest link. Nevertheless, Desmond was commissioned as a medic with the 307th Infantry with whom he would more than prove his mettle on the island of Okinawa in the bloodiest battle of World War II. He exhibited extraordinary courage during a month spent dodging bullets and bombs in order to attend to the wounded during the siege of Hacksaw Ridge. Desmond would save the lives of 75 soldiers and his selfless exploits were ultimately appreciated by both his fellow unit members and the Pentagon. The heroic medic eventually became the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. All of the above is recounted in riveting fashion in Hacksaw Ridge, a biopic directed by Mel Gibson. Fair warning: the film features graphic battlefield scenes similar to the gory D-Day reenactments seen in Saving Private Ryan (1998). I n a d d i t i o n to t h e gruesome war scenes, the film has flashbacks that describe Desmond’s formative years, including his romance w ith Dorothy Schutte (Teresa Palmer), the pretty nurse he fell in love with and married shortly before shipping out for the Pacific Theater. The film closes with archival newsreels and stills of the real-life Desmond and Dorothy. The movie is a moving portrait of a war hero who made a significant contribution to the war effort without ever using a weapon. E x c e l l e n t ( HHHH ) .

esmond Doss (Andrew Garfield) was born in the Blue Ridge Mountains where he was raised as a Seventh-day Adventist. Devoutly religious, he followed his faith’s literal interpretation of the Ten Commandments, including the Fifth one’s dictate that “Thou shalt not kill.” So, when he rushed to enlist in the Army right after the Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, he did so as a conscientious objector. However, because he was unwilling to touch, let alone carry a weapon, Desmond was teased mercilessly by other members of his platoon. In fact, he was not only beaten by a bully (Luke Bracey), but was also courtmartialed for failing to complete the weapons part of basic training. However, the military tribunal ruled in Desmond’s favor after his World War I veteran father (Hugo Weaving) testified on his behalf. Still, his fellow G.I.s were reluctant to accept a comrade whom they thought was a coward, since they had just been taught by their Sergeant How-

PU Football Explodes for 56-7 Win at Cornell, Primed for Pivotal Ivy Clash Against Penn

n the wake of the Princeton University football team’s painful overtime loss to Harvard on October 22, Bob Surace admonished his players to move on. “I told them the worst thing, the biggest disappointment we would have would be if we didn’t come out of this and play our best football,” said Princeton head coach Surace. “It is life, sometimes you don’t get a break in a close game and other times you do. We didn’t take advantage of opportunities where it didn’t become a one play game and that is the key.” Last Saturday at Cornell,

Princeton took advantage of its opportunities early and often, jumping out to a 35-0 lead over the Big Red by halftime. Closing the deal as it displayed some of its best football in years, Princeton cruised to a 56-7 victory, improving to 5-2 overall and 3-1 Ivy League. “I thought we showed a real good finish, we didn’t allow it to come down to OT or a call,” said Surace in a bit of an understatement as his team outgained Cornell 645 yards to 263 and built a 32-13 edge in first downs. “We are not going to allow this victory to linger. You have got to make corrections

and work on improvement and everything else.” Junior quarterback John Lovett produced an historically good performance against Cornell, throwing for four touchdowns, rushing for two, and catching another. “We have some really talented players and John is as talented as anybody we have had here,” said Surace of Lovett, who passed for 194 yards, rushed for 47, and had 19 yards receiving on the way to being named the Ivy Offensive Player of the Week for the third time this season. “We are going to have specific things designed for

him in specific situations. He does a great job of executing and playing hard. When he and Chad Kanoff are on, we really seem to be explosive on offense. We really rely on them a lot.” The Tiger pass receivers enjoyed an explosive day as senior Isaiah Barnes made seven catches for 170 yards, including a 95-yard TD reception, while senior Trevor Osborne had three catches for 55 yards and a touchdown and sophomore Jesper Horsted ended with four receptions for 79 yards. “I thought we were really fast on routes,” said Surace, noting that the offensive line blocked well throughout the contest and that senior quarterback Kanoff was sharp in hitting 17-of-23 passes for 198 yards. “Trevor Osborne’s and Isaiah’s touchdowns were things of beauty, we got separation.” Freshman running back Ryan Quigley continued to separate himself from the crowd, rushing for a careerhigh 102 yards, highlighted by a 50-yard TD run. “He is just a football player, from the first time I saw his video I fell in love with him,” said Surace. “You want this guy on your side, he just keeps getting better. He must have rushed for over 600 yards in our JV season. He is still learning, it takes a while as we saw with Charlie Volker last year. There is a progression at running back where they need to learn the protections, the routes, and all that. As he has been learning that, he has continued to run with a lot of effort.” Princeton’s defense turned in another solid effort. “They have been a good offense throughout the year,” said Surace of the Big Red. “I thought for the most part we tackled well. We are getting really good pressure on the quarterback and we are covering tighter. That has got to continue because we saw what we can look

TOUGH TO STOP: Princeton University football player Isaiah Barnes fights for extra yardage in recent action. Last Saturday at Cornell, senior receiver Barnes enjoyed a career game, making seven catches for 170 yards, including a 95-yard TD reception, as Princeton rolled to a 56-7 win over the Big Red. It was the second-longest touchdown pass in Princeton history, trailing only a 99-yard connection between Matt Verbit and Clinton Wu in a 2003 win at Brown. Princeton, now 5-2 overall and 3-1 Ivy League, hosts Penn (5-2 overall, 4-0 Ivy) in a crucial league contest on November 5. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) like in the first two games when we didn’t get as much pressure on the quarterback and we were just a little bit off in our coverage.” The Tigers will be under pressure this Saturday when they a host high-powered Penn (5-2 overall, 4-0 Ivy) squad, whose offense features a trio of stars in quarterback Alek Torgerson, running back Tre Solomon, and wide receiver Justin Watson. “They are just rolling through teams; they are just picking teams apart, going up and down the field,” said Surace. “They are always exceptional physically and they have utilized every bit of the field, vertically, horizontally. Watson, Torgerson, and Solomon, not just this year but over history, are elite players in this league. They are

surrounded with just tremendous players.” The Quakers are also formidable on the other side of the ball. “Defensively, they get after it,” added Surace. “In the games I have seen, they have played really well on defense. This is truly a complete team and it is shown week in, week out in how they are playing.” While Princeton has proven that it is a complete team with the routs over Cornell, Brown (31-7), and Columbia (48-13), Surace knows the Tigers will have to be at their best to compete with Penn. “We need to have a day where we play very well,” asserted Surace. “You expect that they are going to play very well, it is all they have done all year. It has the makings of a really good game but not if we don’t play well.” —Bill Alden

MFG., CO.

Coming into its game last week against visiting Bucknell, the Princeton University women’s soccer team was a frustrated bunch. After Mimi Asom scored a goal early in the second half in a 2-1 loss to Brown on October 8, the Tigers were held scoreless in their next two games, falling 2-0 at Columbia and 1-0 to Harvard despite outshooting the Lions 16-9 and the Crimson 16-5. As Tiger sophomore star Asom and her teammates took the field for their October 25 contest against a Bucknell team that had lost only one game all season, they were determined to get back on the right track. “We were just looking to turn our luck around a little bit, we have had a couple of rough games and we were just trying to get back into it,” said Asom. “We have to be more efficient in front of goal. We have had games where we are taking 16 shots and not scoring any. That is just not good enough.” Finding itself trailing the Bison 1-0 at halftime, the frustration mounted for Tigers at halftime. “We were talking to each other, we were sick of it,” recalled Asom. “We have gone down 1-0 quite a few times

in the last couple of weeks and it was just the idea of turning it around.” Asom got things turned around for the Tigers, finding the back of the net at the 70:59 mark as she fired a shot just inside the post, a goal that gave the Tigers a 1-1 tie with the Bison as neither team scored again through regulation and 20 minutes of overtime. “I am normally a center forward, but I played wide today,” said Asom, a native of Dallas, Texas. “The message was to come in and take care of opportunities so that is what I did.” Last Saturday at Cornell, Asom took advantage of her opportunities, scoring three goals as the Tigers routed the Big Red 6-1 win over Cornell, earning her Iv y League Player of the Week honors in the process. In the view of Princeton head coach Sean Driscoll, it was critical for the Tigers to find the back of the net against Bucknell. “The mindset was to try to get back on track in terms of s cor i n g g o a l s,” s a i d Driscoll. “We have been struggling to do so. I think we have played very well in the last several games, which sounds crazy.”

Dr iscoll was happy to see that struggle end with Asom’s tally against Bucknell. “We certainly deserved a goal after all of the work that we put in in that second half,” said Driscoll. “You hope that starts to propel us.” Wit h A s om prop elling Princeton in the rout of Cornell, Driscoll is looking for his team to keep working hard as it hosts Penn in its regular season finale on November 5. “We need to continue the best we can, we have to play for pride,” said Driscoll, whose squad improved to 10-4-2 overall and 2-3-1 Ivy with the win over Cornell. “We are still trying to compete for some sort of standing in the Ivy League and try to finish as high as we can. That is the goal, to end on a high.” With Princeton clinging to hopes of getting at an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, Asom and her teammates are going to keep firing away. “It is not over until it is over so we are are going to do our best and try to keep winning,” said Asom, who now has nine goals for the season. —Bill Alden

ATTACKING POSITION: Princeton University women’s soccer player Mimi Asom establishes position in a game earlier this season. Sophomore Asom came up big last week, scoring the lone goal for Princeton in a 1-1 tie against Bucknell on October 25 and then notching three tallies in a 6-1 win at Cornell last Saturday.

Fueled by Scoring Outburst From Asom, PU Women’s Soccer Gets Back on Track

TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, NOvEmbER 2, 2016 • 34

After Falling 6-2 to Michigan State in Opener, PU Men’s Hockey Progresses in Win over U.S.-U18s For Ron Fogarty, it was a homecoming when the Princeton University men’s hockey team opened its season by heading to Michigan last weekend. P r i nce ton h e ad coach Fogarty, who coached at Adrian College in Michigan for seven seasons before taking the helm of the Tigers in 2014, enjoyed seeing his old stomping grounds as P r i n c e ton playe d at

Michigan State in the season opener on Friday and faced the USA Under-18 team in an exhibition the next day in Plymouth, Mich. “It was a great trip for me personally, it was great for me to see some friendly faces at the rinks,” said Fogarty. Michigan State wasn’t a friendly host to the Tigers, however, riding a 4-1 outburst in the second period

to a 6-2 win. “I think it was a combination of our first game versus their fifth game,” said Fogarty, who got two goals from sophomore Alex Riche in the loss. “Once we got behind, our guys started taking the easier way out and not supporting the puck down deep. We addressed that going into Saturday’s game.” Against the U.S. squad,

Princeton fell behind 3-0 but came roaring back, pulling out a 5-4 win in overtime. “Even though we were down, we were playing a lot better,” said Fogarty. “They had a couple of good goals against us but our structures and systems were a lot better. It was like day and night from the Michigan State. We just stayed with it and the results were tangible in what we were doing throughout the game.” Riche was a bright spot of the weekend, along with fe l low s op h om or e s a n d linemates Ryan Kuffner and

Max Veronneau, who each totaled two assists. “We knew last year how good he could be,” said Fogarty of Riche, who chipped in a goal on Saturday. “He didn’t get his first one until the new year so to have him on the scoreboard early is good. That is a product of that line with Kuffner and Veronneau.” Princeton got good production from its freshmen in the win over the U.S. as Liam Grande had three assists in the contest with Jackson Cresse scoring two goals and Derek Topatigh picking up two assists. “They put their better line on Kuffner, Veronneau, and Riche so that gave space to the Grande, Cresse, and junior David Hallisey,” said Fogarty. “Now we have some secondary scoring and even tertiary scoring. It opened u p s o m e p l ay e r s w h e n they focused on the other line. Topatigh played well,

all the freshmen did well.” As usual, senior star goalie Colton Phinney did well, making 30 saves against the U.S. squad. “Colton played very strong, he bounced back from the Michigan State game,” said Fogarty. “He made big stops to allow us to come back against the USA. It was a bounce back game for us after a bad systems, bad structure game on Friday.” The Tigers will need to play some very good games to keep on the winning track as they start ECAC Hockey play with games at St. Lawrence on November 4 and at Clarkson on November 5. “The focus is to play like we did in the second and third period in the U.S. game,” said Fogarty. “We need to keep working on what we do well and not focusing on what teams do that forces us to change our system.” —Bill Alden

It was a number that Will Hare couldn’t get out of his head since the 2015 Mercer County Cross Country Championships. “Last year we lost by three points,” said Princeton High boys’ cross country junior star Hare, recalling the team’s narrow second place finish to Robbinsville. “I still know the score, 77-74.” Last Friday in the boys’ varsity race at this year’s cou nt y m eet, Hare a nd his teammates settled that score in resounding fashion as PHS cruised to its first team crown since 1992, taking first with 31 points, well ahead of WW/P-S, the runner-up at 60. PHS senior star Alex Roth took the individual title, covering the 5,000-meter course at Thompson Park in Jamesburg in 15:48.87. Hare took second in 15:57.96 with sophomore Acasio Pinheiro coming in third at 16:18.74. Junior Nick Delaney took 12th in 16:43.70 with classmate Alex Ackerman right behind in 13th at 16:59.71 to round up the top five for the Little Tigers. For Hare, being a part of that breakthrough for the program was a cause for joy. “To be so close last year and to know that it has been 20 some odd years since we have come here and taken the title, that says something,” said a smiling Hare. “That means we are special; it means something special has happened here.” Getting the chance for Roth to be at the front of the pack is special for Hare. “It was all Alex, I kind of let him do all the work today; it was windy and he went out fast and then settled down nicely and strung out,” said Hare. “He set a great pace for the race; he really picks up the team. He feels he can run with anybody in the state and he is right. I am so happy for him, I am so happy for everybody on our team today.”

Noting that he ran a time of 18:55 at Thompson Park in 2014 as a freshman, Hare credited working with Roth on a daily basis as a key factor in his progress. “Training with Roth every day, you can’t slide,” said Hare. “You always have to make sure that you are running your best and bringing the mentality that you have to do your best every day. That helps in the long run, if you are not here to crank it out, why even show up.” PHS head coach Jim Smirk believes that the connection between Hare and Roth sets the tone for the Little Tigers. “Will and Alex are great training partners, they trust each other on an incredibly deep level and they work really well together,” said Smirk. “Will knows that when A lex makes a move, he can go with him. It is really nice.” It was nice for the Little Tigers to add sophomore transfer Pinheiro. “Acasio coming over and is starting to integrate with our program and work hard, those are things that help our program get better,” said Smirk, noting that Delaney and Ackerman stepped up with outstanding performances. In Smirk’s view, the PHS program made a statement with its win. “We fell a little short last year and we came with a new attitude,” said Smirk. “I think what we wanted to do here was say here we are, this is our program, this is who we are.” With PHS returning to Thompson Park to compete in the state sectional meet on November 5, Smirk wants his runners to keep showing that attitude. “We have the same goals, we want to bring the same kind of performance,” said Smirk. “We want to run better at sectional and set ourselves

up for a good opportunity at groups. We are looking ahead to the Meet of Champions. We are going to see great teams there so we want to race well against them, that doesn’t change.” Hare, for his part, is confident that PHS will make a great final run this fall. “With everybody running well, that will really carry us through the sectionals and give us a lot of confidence that this process is working,” said Hare. “I think we are prett y good. If we run our best, I don’t think anybody in the state can beat us, that is how confident I am in my team.

Sparked by Walker’s Breakout Race at County Meet, PHS Girls’ Cross Country Finishes 2nd Overall Annie Walker has endured a star-crossed career for the Princeton High girls’ cross country team. “I had an issue with my calf for a good part of a year,” said senior Walker. “Injuries carried from my sophomore year into my junior year. It was last year in spring track when I was finally at full speed.” Last Friday at the Mercer County Cross Country Championships at Thompson Park in Jamesburg, Walker emerged as a star for the Little Tigers, taking third individually to help PHS place second in the team standings behind winner WW/P-S. In taking third, Walker posted a time of 19:10.08 over the 5,000-meter course with junior Chloe Taylor taking fifth in 19:29.99 and senior Izzy Trenholm placing eighth in 19:40.47. Walker was thrilled with her performance, seeing it as a testament to her perseverance.

“I have been working really hard this entire season, getting ready for a race like this where I can really show some of the hard work that I have been putting in with my team,” said Walker. In making it to the front of the pack at the counties, Walker worked with teammate Taylor, the team’s consistent frontrunner this fall. “I was hoping to stick with my teammate Chloe, she is usually a huge part of my races,” explained Walker. “I passed her after the second mile mark going on the downhill. I have been working on the downhills a really long time so I know when I get to that point in a course, that is my shot to open up and let my stride take me.” In reflecting on her breakthrough race, Walker credited her teammates with helping her getting to that point. “My team is my support system,” said Walker. “If someone isn’t doing well or racing well, we bring them

along with us. It is all about the team and the workouts.” PHS head coach Jim Smirk was proud to see Walker run so well at the county meet. “Annie is a kid who just couldn’t get healthy; we knew she was talented,” said Smirk. “She has been such a part of our team in terms of our culture and drive for success. She has always been there, practicing hard every day.” While noting that Taylor had a hard day, Smirk believes she has better races ahead. “The hills got Chloe today a little bit,” said Smirk. “She has been racing great, she will put it together. It was working on 150 meters. If that is the downside to your county race that you have 150 meters to work on, that is fine.” S e n ior Tre n hol m pro duced a great effort. “Izzy Trenholm did well, she had a hard time earlier this season,” added Smirk. “She had a tough race here in the Fall Classic and really improved upon that. She showed who she is and what a competitor she is.” Smirk is looking forward to seeing his runners compete at the sectional meet this Saturday at Thompson Park. “We have room to grow, we are going to get better,” said Smirk “That is not as good as we are going to get. We are going to work to get better and that is what we are looking for.” Walker, for her part, believes she and the team can build on the effort at the county meet. “I am just really happy and I am really happy with my team, we have been working so hard this season,” said Walker. “We are excited to see what the rest of the season holds. We are looking toward sectionals, we won it a couple of years ago and we are just going to keep trying.” —Bill Alden

PHS Boys’ Soccer Rallies to Share MCT Crown But Falls in State Tourney Opener on Penalty Kicks Playing in his first Mercer Cou nt y Tour nament boys’ soccer championship game last Thursday evening, Drew Beamer was focused on keeping a cool head as Princeton High faced Pennington. “Going into it, I really just tried to stay calm,” said PHS junior star Beamer. “I know what our team’s strengths and weaknesses were; we worked to the strengths and away from the weaknesses. We had a really good week of preparation in practice. We knew the game strategy.” That calmness was severely tested as high-powered and undefeated top-seeded Pennington jumped out to a 1-0 lead three minutes into the game and seemed poised about to run secondseeded PHS off the field at The College of New Jersey with a downpour pelting the players. “We huddled up real quick and talked it out, we were like boys it is nothing we haven’t come back from before. It was like HoVal in the first game of our season, when we came back from 1-0. We just kept working at it and our play got better and better throughout the game.” Although the Red Raiders dominated possession for much of the half, the Little Tigers held the fort and went into halftime still down 1-0. “We just got into the huddle and said who has the will to win more and we decided that we wanted it more,” said Beamer. Showing that will to win, Beamer helped PHS knot the game at 1-1, assisting on a goal by Dean Patel with 12:04 remaining in regulation. “I saw Sammy throwing it in and I tried to flick it on to goal and then Dean intercepted it and scored,” recalled Beamer. “That is fine too, I don’t mind, kudos to him.” B eamer lef t t he game briefly in the second half w it h a bloody nose but rushed back in after being treated to help the PHS defense keep its shape. “We just tried to keep it more compact back there,” said Beamer. “We have been doing really well as a defense the whole time. We tried to keep five guys back there and we tried to work as a unit more.” PH S c ar r ie d t h e play through the remainder of the second half and the teams went into overtime. In the extra session, the Little Tigers generated some good chances off of set pieces but neither side scored through two 10-minute overtime periods and the heavyweight battle ended up a 1-1 tie with the teams sharing the title. “They are a really good team, they fought the whole time,” said Beamer. “In overtime, we just tried to do the best that we could so that is all we could ask for.” Over the season, Beamer has done his best to hold things together for the Little Tigers. “The coaches want me to play like a lower center mid and kind of quarterback the

situation and tell guys where they need to be,” said Beamer. PHS head coach Wayne Sutcliffe credited Beamer with being where PHS needed all over the field against Pennington. “He gave everything,” said Sutcliffe. “What can you say, he won so many battles. He settled in as it went along, he was finding feet, he was absolutely fantastic.” After weathering the Pennington storm in the first half, PHS changed things up strategically. “We made a couple of tactical adjustments, with just one striker up high and three center mids to try to get a hold of the ball a little more, to pressure the ball a little more and to just settle in a little bit more and find feet,” said Sutcliffe. “I think once the rain stopped and the game settled in, the players started to get a little more fatigued and we had a little more time on the ball. We found our comfort zone.” Although the Little Tigers couldn’t get the ball into the back of the net again, Sutcliffe was proud to see

his program earn a seventh MCT crown even if it had to settle for a tie. “That was the story, it was two halves, it could have gone either way,” said Sutcliffe, whose team’s storybook season ended in disappointment last Monday as second-seeded PHS fell to 15th-seeded Manalapan on penalty kicks in the opening round of the Central Jersey Group 4 tourney after the teams played to a 2-2 draw through regulation and two overtimes. “I think more than anything, this is the way it should be. T he top t wo teams, the one and the two, should meet in the final. I thought we persevered and we gained a little bit of a psychological edge. You want to win it outright, we have won it outright six times. I view this as every bit as valuable as the other six that we have won.” Beamer, for his part, has enjoyed the ride this fall with his teammates as the Little Tigers posted a record of 17-1-2. “I think the team’s chemistry is really good,” said Beamer. “You see the boys cheering on the bus. We just all mesh really well together.” —Bill Alden

Val Radvany was determined to make her mark this fall in her sophomore season for the Princeton Day School field hockey team. “Last year as a freshman I really wanted to prove myself and this year I wanted to show that I am a strong player,” said Radvany. “On the field I am able to concentrate on the game.” As top-seeded PDS hosted seventh-seeded Stuart Country Day in the state Prep B title game last Sunday, Radvany didn’t think twice when the ball came her way on a penalty corner 1:30 into the game, knocking it into the cage to give the Panthers an early 1-0 lead. “I just really wanted to win the game so I just hit it,” said Radvany. After that opening salvo, neither team scored until Radvany tallied with 4:06 left in regulation. “I think we had control and possession the whole game. That really boosted our confidence,” said Radvany. “We were playing so hard and there were so many chances and we couldn’t

get the ball in so it was kind of nerve-wracking so it was nice to get the second goal.” That second goal sealed the deal as PDS posted a 2-0 win to earn its first state title since taking the Prep A crown in 1998. The triumph gave the Panthers a final record of 16-4 and marked a stunning reversal of fortune as they went 6-13-1 in 2015. “It is really exciting because we worked so hard last year,” said Radvany. “We didn’t get the season that we wanted to get exactly and this year we were able to show how we are a really good team. I think our ball movement is much better and we are able to see each other on the field.” T h e Pa nt h e r s s h owe d resilience bouncing back from a tough 3-0 defeat to Lawrenceville in the Mercer County Tournament championship game a week earlier. “It is really great especially because we lost in Mercer County finals so it is nice to end this season with a title,”

said Radvany. “We hadn’t won in a very long time so it is nice to win it. This team is very special so I am happy that we were able to do that.” PDS head coach Heather Farlow was happy to see her team get a shot at another title as it edged fourth-seeded Pennington 2-1 in the Prep B semis on Saturday. “I think we played one of our strongest games in the county semifinals (a 3-2 overtime win against Allentown) and I know we played tough against Lawrenceville but we didn’t play our best game,” said Farlow. “You need your best game against them. We were really looking forward to taking care of Pennington and having another chance today.” Farlow acknowledged that she was getting nervous as the Panthers controlled possession for long stretches of the title game but struggled to get that second tally. “I actually feel relieved, I felt like we couldn’t buy a goal,” said Farlow. “We controlled possession for most of the game but we couldn’t put it away. A 1-0 game is tough because if a team gets a fast break and a goal, it could change the whole complexion of the game. I was glad that we were able to score that second one.” In reflecting on the PDS title run, Farlow noted that she saw a big change early this fall which gave her the idea that the team could do big things.

“At the beginning of the season, we saw how we were performing against the teams we really struggled against last year.” “I was thinking you know what, we can totally do this. K now ing how t he ot her teams in the Prep B were performing, I was pretty confident. I told the girls last year that they had a ton of potential and we were winners and they had to get out of that mindset where you try not to lose. You play to win, that was the difference from the start this year.” Coming into the title game with familiar foe Stuart, the Panthers knew they would have to play hard to earn the win. “We have a great deal of respect for Stuart,” said Farlow. “It is a cross street rival and so the girls knew that they haven’t had the most wins this season but it is a school looking to make their season based off of today’s game. We didn’t overlook them at all and the girls knew they had to come in hard.” Radvany, for her part, believed that PDS is poised to be good for years to come. “We have a really young team so that is really hopeful,” said Radvany. “I know that everyone will just get better and better as the years go on so it is really exciting.” —Bill Alden

Senior Amaral Ends Career on a High Note, Helping PDS Boys’ Soccer to Prep B Crown J ac k A m a r a l a n d t h e Princeton Day School boys’ soccer team brought a sense of urgency to the field as they hosted Morristown-Beard in the state Prep B semifinals last Wednesday. Senior defender Amaral and classmate David Cedeno assisted on a Ricardo Martinez goal 1:30 into the contest, triggering a torrent of goals that saw secondseeded PDS leading sixthseeded Crimson 5-0 midway through the first half. “It was something we were trying to do, start off fast paced and get a goal early,” said Amaral. “I think breaking the ice and getting a goal right off the bat really helps and sets the pace for the rest of the game. It is our job to keep going off of that and not be content with a 1-0 lead. We kept going.” In the second half, the Panthers kept rolling, adding three more unanswered goals to post an 8-0 victor y and ear n a second straight trip to the Prep B

championship game. For Amaral, going back to the championship game was special. “It means a lot, especially as a senior,” said Amaral, who helped the PDS boys’ lacrosse team win a Prep B title last spring. “I am in the position of a lot of my senior friends last year. This is my last soccer game that I will play so it is nostalgia.” A mara l made h is las t game meaningful, helping the Panthers to a 1-0 win over fifth-seeded Newark Academy as the program won its first Prep B crown since 2010. Coming into the title contest, Amaral had the feeling the Panthers could break through after falling 2-1 to Gill St. Bernard’s in last year’s Prep B finals. “I think we have a great defense, we have a great goalie, our forwards are able to finish the ball, and we do a good job controlling the ball in the midfield,” said Amaral. “Everyone seems to be jelling together nicely,

there is a good chemistry.” PDS head coach Ollie Hilliker believed that his squad had steeled itself for a championship run by facing some formidable foes in regular season play. “We played a very strong schedule,” said Hilliker. “At the end of the day you’re record doesn’t really matter. It matters that it helped us finish strong. We played Pennington, Peddie, and Hill. A lot of strong schools.” In the title game, a first half goal by sophomore Martinez helped propel PDS to its big day against Newark Academy. “I think they played nervous a lot,” said Hilliker. “That goal did help and in the end it was the decisive moment in the game.” Another decisive sequence came early in the second half when PDS senior goalie Ryan Sparks made a save on a penalty kick. “I think that helped push us to the end,” said Hilliker, reflecting on Sparks’ critical stop. “We’ve been working on penalties the last few practices just to make sure we’re comfortable and calm with them. Luckily that paid off and Ryan made a big save.” Over the waning moments of the game, the Panthers had to hold off a surge by Newark. “T hey s t ar te d put t i ng more players forward and put a lot of pressure on us,” said Hilliker. “Defensively, the boys stayed organized and that made the difference in the end and they couldn’t get to us.” In the final analysis, PDS proved it could handle playoff pressure. “We’ve had a good season; it’s had its ups and downs, but we have persevered and gotten stronger every game through that,” said Hilliker. “I always believed we had a chance. Our aim was to be here in this game. Obviously, the last two weeks we have really concentrated and focused on what we’ve been doing. We worked hard and played our game today.” In A maral ’s v iew, t he Panthers saved their best for last. “We talked about it in the beginning of the season, hitting our stride as we worked up to the playoffs,” said Amaral. “We played some tough competition so I think we were ready for this and knew what we had to do.” —Bill Alden

Rebounding From Defeat in MCT Title Game, PDS Girls’ Soccer Wins 3rd Straight Prep B Crown It was the third straight state Prep B championship game for Princeton Day School girls’ soccer star goalie Grace Barbara and she knew that visiting Montclair Kimberley Academy would put her under fire. “I was a little bit under the gun but that has been every prep championship game for me,” said Barbara. “Since freshman year I have always had to come up big and that is the expectation. The team believes in me and I believe in the team. When it comes down to that, I have to make the saves and they try to minimize them.” Tr ue to form, Barbara m ade s om e p oi nt- bla n k stops for top-seeded PDS against sixth-seeded MKA as the teams played to a 0-0 tie in a contest called with six minutes remaining in the second half due to thunderstorms that rumbled through the area last Sunday afternoon, leaving the foes as co-champions. “We worked harder in the second half,” said Barbara, who made five saves in the title contest. “The first half was not our best soccer for sure, we turned it around 180 degrees.” Although sharing the title wasn’t ideal, it marked the third straight Prep B title for the Panthers. “It is bittersweet, I feel like with six minutes to go, there would have been an outcome either way,” lamented Barbara. “They are a great team. U n for t u n ate l y w i t h t h e weather, we couldn’t finish it.” The rain-shortened game marked the finish to an action-packed week that saw the Panthers advance to the Mercer County Tournament title game on Thursday where they fell to Hopewell Valley 2-1 in a wind-swept downpour. “We had a really tough go in the MCTs, we are given a really tough way to get into the final,” said Barbara. “I am so proud of the group. We worked really, really hard, beating Hun in the first round, and then PHS, and finally marching up with Pennington. We knew that was going to be a physical game, we knew that it was going to be a mentally draining game, and it obviously was. Getting into two overtimes and penalty kicks and finally winning that was unbelievable.” While Barbara was disappointed by the outcome in the MCT final, she had no qualms with the effort displayed by the Panthers as the players fought through a driving rainstorm. “We were prepared for that HoVal game just as much as we were prepared for any game but we weren’t prepared for the conditions obviously,” said Barbara. “Unfor tunately, that is what it came down to. I think on a different surface and in different weather, it could have been a different outcome. I am proud of our effort and I am not disappointed. We worked our hardest from the first whistle to the last whistle.” In reflecting on her progress as a goalie, Barbara believes that developing a deep connection with her

teammates has spurred her to new heights. “I have been with this team for three years now,” said the Princeton University-bound Barbara. “Working with this team has helped my experience and that has helped me make some better saves and come up big in some situations. I know that this team relies on me and I rely on them so it is a symbiotic relationship.” PDS head coach Pat Trombet ta credited Barbara’s clutch play with securing the Prep B title for the Panthers. “Grace kept us in the game today, she had a couple of unbelievable saves,” said Trombetta. “She came up huge for us today on a couple of breakaways. We could be looking at something else right now if it wasn’t for her.” Trombetta acknowledged that his players were less than thrilled to be looking at a shared championship. “It is tough, obviously you are going to be on an emotional high winning it outright,” said Trombetta. “It did sink in. If you look at the girls’ expressions, there is a sense of acceptance and that is probably it.” In assessing the team’s run to the finals in concurrent tour naments, Trombet ta credited his girls with displaying mental toughness. “Overall we knew it was a tough week, playing five games on eight days with the emotional highs and lows,” said Trombetta. “The emotional high with the win over Pennington, the tough loss on Thursday night in the county finals, just getting by with enough energy

on Friday (a 1-0 win in double overtime against fourthseeded Newark Academy in the Prep B semis), and then coming into today looking at hopefully getting the championship outright. There is an asterisk next to it as far as co-champs but, all in all, if you look at the season, we finished the regular season undefeated. The girls have a lot to be proud of.” The title earned Sunday meant that the squad’s senior group of Abby Atkeson, Allison Klei, Alexi Davis, Emily Simons, and Katie Simons earned a championship in each year of their career as PDS won the MCT championship in 2013 to go with its three consecutive Prep B crowns. “Overall, if I look at the senior corps, they are probably one of the most positive, enthusiastic groups I have ever coached,” said Trombetta. “They are great mentors for the younger players. It is a selfless group, they always put the team first and that is what you want. It sets a tone. Everyone likes playing with those seniors, they wanted to send them out with another championship this year. We will be knocking on the door down the road.” In Barbara’s view, the program is poised to build on the legacy of those seniors. “It was a great season, for sure; we made it to the Mercer County finals, that is something the program has only done twice,” said Barbara. “We didn’t win it obviously but we have next year. We still have a young team. We are losing five seniors who are really, really important to us. I believe we will be able to come back next year and have a strong season.” —Bill Alden

LEAP OF FAITH: Princeton Day School girls’ soccer goalie Grace Barbara leaps to make a save against Montclair Kimberly Academy last Sunday in the state Prep B title game.

Patrick Holly got off to a rough start for the Hun School football team as it played at Peddie last Saturday in a Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) showdown. The junior quarterback misfired on several passes as the Raiders found themselves down 7-0. Then late in the second quarter, Holly was driven into the turf on a sack, landing awkwardly on his shoulder and neck. Getting helped off the field, Holly sat on the bench, appearing dazed and confused and possibly done for the day. But after consulting with trainers and playing some catch during halftime, Holly returned to the fray in the third quarter. “I went through some tests at half, started throwing the ball, felt pretty good,” said the 6’3, 197-pound Holly. “I knew I had to get back in there with my guys.” A f ter Hu n fell beh ind 14-0 midway through the third quarter, Holly helped the team get back into the game, engineering an 80yard scoring march, aided by two passes that bounced off Peddie defenders into the hands of Raider receivers. Josh Henderson scored on a one-yard run and added three two-point conversions to make it a 14-8 game. “We had those two lucky plays, sometimes you just need luck in football and we got it,” said Holly, reflecting on the drive. “The momentum shifted after that.” Later Holly led Hun on another march, which culminated when he pitched a lateral to lineman Fred Hansard on a fourth down play and the 304-pound behemoth rumbled 15 yards into the end zone as Hun went ahead 15-14. “We just put it in this

week,” said Holly. “The situation came up, fourth and medium and we just said hey why not do it. It is our last really big game and we just ran it.” Hun sealed the deal with a 97-yard drive, ramming the ball down Peddie’s throat with Malcolm Brunson scoring on a two-yard run and Tucker Strycharz bulling in for a two-point conversion to make the final margin 23-14. The win improved the Raiders to 7-0 as they posted the team’s 21st straight win with Peddie dropping to 5-2. In assessing the Hun rally, Holly said it was triggered by an intense will to win. “They have a lot of really good players, getting down 14-0 was tough,” said Holly. “We came back in the second half and we just wanted it more than them.” Holly, the son of former Princeton University star quarterback and NFL player Bob Holly, is having a really good time at Hun in his first year at the school, having transferred there from Bergen Catholic. “I have been here all the time over the years,” said Holly. “My dad knows the area really well. It was a natural fit.” Hun head coach Todd Smith was proud of the way Holly overcame adversity in the win. “Patrick is a warrior, we followed the protocol and kept him out of the rest of the second quarter,” said Smith. “We brought him back in and he came back in the second half and he took some lumps for us. It’s just a great way to finish the game.” Battling back against a talented Peddie squad required some great execution and resilience on the part of the Raiders.

DOWN PAT: Hun School quarterback Patrick Holly prepares to throw a pass in a game earlier this season. Last Saturday at Peddie, junior star Holly shook off a second quarter injury to hit on 9-of-16 passes for 143 yards, helping Hun rally from a 14-0 third quarter deficit to pull out a 23-14 win. The victory improved Hun to 7-0 and extended its winning streak to 21. The Raiders wrap up the season by hosting Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) on November 6. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski)

“The kids made plays, we capitalized off of some mistakes they made,” said Smith. “At the end of the day, our kids just kept making plays. We can’t ask for more than that. They never gave up on each other, we just kept playing.” One of the plays of the day, if not the year, was the throwback to Hansard. “It is something we put in this week for him, we were so happy it worked,” said a grinning Smith. “Ru nning it on four t h down was gutsy, we were excited about it. We practiced it a lot this week and it worked. It was the perfect time to call the play.” Coming down the stretch of the contest, Hun outworked the Falcons in the trenches. “I thought we took over in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter, “ said Smith. “There is no better way to end a drive than to go up an extra score when you are running the ball every down, going 97 yards for a TD.” In Smith’s view, the defining quality of this year’s squad is its refusal to quit. “I think we are a system; each team I have had here in my three years at Hun has been much different,” added Smith. “This team is not like the team I had two years ago or the team I had last year. They just grind, we found a way. We were down 14-0 to Friendship Collegiate in Washington D.C. (a 20-14 win on October 1). We were down 14-0 today and the kids just kept responding.” Holly, for his part, believes the Raiders can grind out one more win this fall when they host the Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) on November 6 in the season finale. “It will be alright, we are expecting to win,” said Holly. “We are going to enjoy this one because it was a taxing win. It took a 100 percent effort from everyone. It was really tough.” —Bill Alden

Stuart Field Hockey Edged in Prep B Title Game But Stirring Playoff Run Bodes Well for the Future In early September, the Stuart Country Day field hockey team opened the season with a disappointing 7-0 loss at Princeton Day School. Last Sunday, the Great Road rivals met in the state Prep B finals and it was a much different game. Battling top-seeded PDS tooth and nail, upset-minded and seventh-seeded Stuart dropped a tight 2-0 decision. Afterward, Stuart head coach Missy Bruvik appreciated how far her team had come since that rough outing in September. “We played the first game of the season right here on this field and we were just trying to figure out who we were and what we had,” said Bruvik. “To see the team chemistry and the improvement in every one of those kids was great. We even had kids join the team after that first game, which helped our program, so we are getting there.” Getting to the title game required underdog Tartans, who had one-two wins all season before the tourney, to make an unlikely run through the Prep B brack-

et. “We took two steps this year, we knocked off that No. 2 seed Newark Academy and the No. 3 seed Montclair Kimberley and had a chance to play the second best team in the county,” said Bruvik, whose team ended up with a final record of 5-11-2. “To have that score today, I am really, really proud of them because I know what caliber that team is.” In making those steps, the Tartans displayed a work ethic and adaptability. “I think it is getting kids to really understand the amount of time and effort it is going to take to get there and I think they bought in,” said Bruvik. “These kids worked hard positionally where we needed them. They were flexible enough to say I might have to play here. It is all about the team.”

The Stuart defense worked hard all day in the title game as PDS built a 12-0 edge in shots. “We were holding t he fort, I thought Alexxa Newman, our senior goalie, did a tremendous job in her last game in cage,” said Bruvik, whose goalie Newman had 10 saves on the day. “We knew they had powerhouses on the attack line and in the middle. We had to be ready defensively. I think we did a pretty good job marking them high. They had a lot of corners.” In Bruvik’s view, the Stuart program may have turned a corner with its stirring postseason run. “Clearly going into next year, we need to build an attack,” said Bruvik. “We just said to those seniors, they have left us in a great place. There were a lot of fans here today so we hope the excitement is back for Stuart hockey.” —Bill Alden

30 Years of Experience!

D r. E mers on Power y, professor of biblical studies and coordinator of ethnic and area studies at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, Pa., will deliver Princeton T heolog ical S em inar y’s Biblical Studies depar tment lecture on Monday, November 7 at 7 p.m. in the Daniel J. Theron assembly room, 25 Library Place in Princeton. The title of his lecture is, “Biblical Interpretation in an Age of Protest.” Parking is available in the lot behind the library. Powery will discuss how contemporary events impact the interpretation of the Bible, the way pro tests are affected by the way sacred texts are read, how theological education should engage its wider culture, and the function of biblical interpretation d u r i ng t h e ab ol it ion is t movement in antebellum America. He is a 1992 graduate of Pr inceton S eminar y. How Scripture functions — in ancient and presentday communities — has become his passion, as most of his research, writing, and editing relates to how the New Testament, in particular, and the Bible, more broadly, performs hermeneutically in under represented communities.

Sally Jane Schoch, 69, formerly of Princeton, died on November 19, 2015 of complications from multiple sclerosis. Born on November 20, 1945, in San Francisco, Calif., Sally spent her formative years in Princeton, attending Valley Road School and for a time, Princeton High School. An avid lover of sports and blessed with a sturdy frame, Sally played basketball and field hockey with abandon and enjoyed ski trips to Vermont. As a teen, she became a lover of animals, which led her to keep a particularly stubborn horse by the name of “Nosey.” Stabled in a barn near-by to her house on Ridgeview Road, Sally would call out each evening to bid the equine a pleasant good night and always received throaty confirmation. Following high school, Sally’s love of open spaces took her to her beloved Colorado where she attended Adams State University and began her career in elementary education. Sally later spent many years on the Western Slope and also made a stop in Fort Collins to earn an MA in early education. Known for her warmth and good cheer, Sal was the unfortunate victim of multiple sclerosis beginning at the early age of 19. A fighter by nature, Sally dealt with her condition with resolve and dignity for many decades before being institutionalized near her brother, Fred Schoch, in the Boston, Mass. area. Her nephews Willard S choch of Charlestow n, Mass. and Henry Schoch of Providence, R.I. also survive Sally; as well as her constant friend, caregiver, and former sister-in-law Beatrice Billings Schoch. A service will be held on November 12, 2016 at the Princeton Cemetery at 10 a.m. All are welcome to attend.

Nancy Scott Amick, 85, passed away on October 31 at home after a courageous battle with metastatic kidney cancer. She was surrounded by her loving husband, James, and her daughter, D’Maris. Nancy was born to Madeline and Ronald Scott on April 4, 1931, in Greece, N.Y., a suburb of Rochester. Her family moved twice more in the Rochester area, eventually settling in the town of Brighton where she attended Brighton High School. At Smith College, she majored in physics, graduating Magna Cum Laude in 1953. She continued her studies at Cornell University where she earned a Masters of Science in experimental physics in 1958. Upon returning to Rochester, Nancy was employed by Eastman Kodak. In 1959, she relocated to Princeton to carry out research on thin films at the RCA Laboratories. Her work there focused on measuring the thickness of thin evaporated films, as well as assessing their structure and electrical resistance. During the interview process, Nancy met the love of her life, James Albert Amick. They were married on September 9, 1961. After settling in their home in Princeton, Nancy became a volunteer at Recording for the Blind. Drawing on her analy tical and scientific background, Nancy began creating raised-line drawings to accompany science texts for blind students. Over time, she developed novel techniques for generating these tactile drawings, becoming a leading expert in the field. Nancy and her colleague, Ruth Bogia, subsequently revived a nonprofit organization known as The Princeton Braillists, with a focus on the creation

of low-cost, raised line (tactile) maps. Their first effort, a four volume set entitled Maps of North and South America, became available in 1994. Since then, The Princeton Braillists have created and made available to the visually challenged some 35 different volumes of international and U.S. state maps. In 2009, their service to the blind community was recognized by the National Federation of the Blind, which presented them with a Jacob Bolotin Award at their annual meeting. In her spare time, Nancy was an avid gardener, very adept in needlework of all kinds, and interested in artisanal crafts. She and her husband annually designed and produced their own Christmas cards by silk screening. They also enjoyed travel, the theater and the opera. Nancy is survived by her husband, James; her daughter and son-law, D’Maris and Joseph Dempsey; and two grandsons, Connor and Brian, currently engineering students at Cornell University. A memorial service will be held at Nassau Presbyterian Church, Princeton at a future date. ———

9 SIMPLE WAYS TO BOOST YOUR HOME'S VALUE AND APPEAL Forget poring over Pinterest for the simplest ways to improve your home’s value. Here are 9 easy ideas you can implement this weekend: - Add curb appeal with planters and keep the plants watered and tended. - Add a new mailbox and kick plate to your front door. Consider a bold color of paint to transform your door into a focal point. - Paint your walls and touch up trim. - Update switchplates. Stick with the same style throughout your entire home. - Change out your cabinet hardware. Pick a classic finish and simple design. - Update your backsplash. Self-stick tiles make it easy. - Have your carpets cleaned and wood floors buffed. - Replace tired light fixtures or at least consider adding brighter bulbs in dark or enclosed areas. - Curate your tchotchkes. Clear your cabinets, shelves and tabletops, then replace only a few items. Pack the rest in boxes and rotate items for a less cluttered look. Improving your home’s value is important if you’re planning to sell, but it can also make your home a nicer place to live if you’re staying put. Set aside a little time for the next few weekends and boost your home’s value as well as its appeal.

You can’t buy this coat at a local department store, but it will shield your valuable evergreens from fierce and frosty winter winds. Azalea, Rhododendron, Holly, Southern Magnolia, Andromeda, Laurel, Leyland Cypress and similar species are especially susceptible. Frozen ground inhibits the intake of water through the roots, while icy winds accelerate the process of transpiration (the passage of water out of a plant in the form of vapor) through leaves and stems, resulting in a wilting and browning condition known as “Winter Kill”. Roots. A strong root system is vital to happy, health, sustainable plants. Fall bio-fertilization for your key trees will encourage root growth and give them additional protection and a “head start” for spring.

Water. Be sure your most prized trees and shrubs go into winter with ample moisture. Winter-proofing (antidesiccant spray) to evergreen leaves and stems, forms a colorless, waxlike film, reducing excessive water loss but does not cut off oxygen and sunshine, therefore, there is no inhibition of plant growth. Ideally, plantings should be sprayed with an anti-desiccant material once in early to mid winter. Naturally, anti–desiccant spraying is environmentally friendly and safe for your garden and community. Call WOODWINDS (609-924-3500) now to protect your prize evergreens this winter.
