Community Swatting Forum Reveals Focus on “Gamers” As Investigations Continue Investigations continue, as local school and police officials work with the FBI and other state and federal authorities to confront the fraudulent bomb threats at area schools. About 50 parents of Princeton school children joined Princeton Police Chief Nicholas Sutter and Schools Superintendent Steve Cochrane in the John Witherspoon School Auditorium last Thursday evening for a Community Forum on Swatting, a discussion of the ongoing investigations of swatting threats and the evolving responses implemented to help mitigate these “acts of terrorism,” as Mr. Sutter described them. The focus of the investigations has narrowed: The threats this fall, unlike those last spring, are “emanating from the electronic gaming community,” where players score points for the amount of havoc they cause, according to Mr. Sutter The Continued on Page 10

Howard and Liverman Win Council Re-Election

Heather Howard and Lance Liverman, both Democrats, were re-elected to Princeton Council in the general election on Tuesday. Ms. Howard received 2665 votes, while Mr. Liverman earned 2517. These are unofficial results. Contesting them were Republicans Kelly Di Tosto, who got 1067 votes, and Lynn Lu Irving, who earned 968. Both Ms. Di Tosto and Ms. Irving were new to the local political scene. Mr. Liverman served on Township Committee and Ms. Howard on Borough Council prior to consolidation in 2013, when both became members of the merged Princeton Council. A native of Princeton, Mr. Liverman is a property manager. He described himself as often a voice of mediation during Council discussions. Ms. Howard is a health policy expert who works at Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School. She has focused on public safety, health and immigration issues during her term on Council. Elected to School Board for Princeton

Public Schools were Elizabeth “Betsy” A. Kalber Baglio, Patrick Sullivan, and Dafna Kendal, who earned 2086, 2010 and 1771 votes respectively. Vying unsuccessfully for a School Board seat was Robert Dodge, who received 1528 votes. While the final numbers for the Mercer County Freeholder race were not in at press time, Ann M. Cannon had received 2792 votes at that point from Princeton, while Pasquale “Pat” Colavita, Jr. had 2730, Samuel T. Frisby, Sr. 2707, Ira Marks 890, Anthony “Tony” Davis 866 and Jason Lee DeFrancesco 836. Princeton residents cast 3085 votes in favor of Democrat Andrew Zwicker and 2949 for Maureen Vella for General Assembly. Incumbents Jack M. Ciattarelli and Donna K. Simon, both Republicans, got 815 and 818 respectively, from Princeton voters. Brian M. Hughes, current Mercer County executive, earned 2828 votes for re-election from Princeton voters, while

Republican Lisa Richford received 833. In the race for County Clerk, Paula Sollami Covello, the current clerk, earned 2661 votes, while Republican Susan Bagley got 848. —Anne Levin —Donald Gilpin

Safety Grades For Local Hospitals Are Made Public A study rating hospitals on safety has kept University Medical Center of Princeton in the “B” category, while Capital Health Medical Center in Hopewell has retained its “C.” Capital Health’s Regional Medical Center in Trenton, however, dropped from an “A” grade to a “B.” Results of the bi-annual Leapfrog Hospital Survey are based on information submitted by hospitals across the country. The survey takes three areas into consideration: how patients fare, Continued on Page 4

PAINTING WITH AUTUMN LIGHT: It’s fitting that a painter helped make Lake Carnegie possible . When Andrew Carnegie was having his portrait painted by Howard Russell Butler, Class of 1876, Butler told him of the Princeton crew’s need for a place to practice and compete . That was in 1902 . On December 5, 1906, the dream became a reality — at a final cost of $450,000 or about $9 .5 million today . (Photo by Emily Reeves)

resources used in caring for patients, and leadership and structures that promote patient safety. All of New Jersey’s hospitals earned a “C” or better, with nearly half graded at “A.” Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in Hamilton was among those that slipped from a “B” to a “C.” Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick kept its previously earned “C” grade. Hospitals participate voluntarily in the survey. According to the Leapfrog Hospital Survey website, the company “is deeply committed to increasing transparency among health care providers in order to achieve its goal of reducing the estimated 440,000 annual deaths from unnecessary hospital errors.” The Leapfrog Group was founded in 2000. The survey is divided into nine sections, including Maternity Care, ICU Physician Staffing, Safe Practices, Managing Serious Errors, and Resource Use for Common Acute Conditions. Barry S. Rabner, president and chief executive officer of Princeton Healthcare System, expects the University Medical Center of Princeton to recoup the highest grade in a future survey. “Since The Leapfrog Group’s Hospital Safety Scores were first released in 2012, we had received all A’s,” he said in an emailed statement. “This year, we received B’s, based on 2014 data. We believe we have made all the changes necessary to return to an A when we receive the next set of grades.” Eileen Horton, senior vice president, Hospital Administration at Capital Health, commented, “Consumers are faced with more information than ever before when it comes to scoring, ranking, and rating hospitals making it incredibly confusing, particularly when those scores

HARNESSING THE POWER OF LITERATURE: Last month, a group of select librarians from around the country came together at Princeton Public Library to learn the techniques of People and Stories/ Gente y Cuentos, which shares literature with those who might otherwise not have access. Funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the participants were led by Pat Andres and Alma Concepcion, fourth and fifth from left, of People and Stories/Gente y Cuentos.

“Reading Deeply in Community” Brings Librarians to Princeton It wasn’t exactly quiet in the Quiet Room at Princeton Public Library. Seated around a table one day last month, nine librarians from around the country were reviewing a short story and how it can be used to get the people they serve excited about literature. While tones were muted — these were librarians, after all — the discussion was animated.

TOPICS Of the Town low literacy. Aida Quinones, from Athens, Georgia, manages a bilingual library that attracts a lot of migrants. These women and their colleagues were being trained as coordinators by the Trenton-based People & Stories/Gente y Cuentos, as part of a grant sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities entitled “Reading Deeply in Community.” The idea is to share the power of literature with underserved people in their hometowns, including Hispanic immigrants, incarcerated adults and youth, battered women, and those who might be barely literate. Founded in 1972 by the l a te S a r a h H i r s c h m a n , People and Stories/Gente y Cuentos was one of five organizations in New Jersey to be included last July in the NEH grants for humanities projects. The $408,378 award is being implemented over a 30-month period in collaboration with public libraries in Colorado, Alabama, California, Georgia, North Carolina, Iowa, and Illinois. “It’s fitting that we’re convening in Princeton, since our organization is located in Trenton and many of our supporters are in Princeton,” said Pat Andres, the executive director of People and Stories. “The Princeton Public Library typically hosts our trainings when we do them for local coordinators, and we have an ongoing Gente y Cuentos program here at the library. So what better place?” Access to literature can change a life. People and Stories goes into prisons, homeles s shelters, resi dential treatment facilities, and other locations to read and discuss short stories in English or Spanish, inviting participants to interpret and question what they have read. “The main mission is access for those who, for whatever reason, whether it is low literacy skills or just lack of exposure, have not had the opportunity to enjoy the beauty and power litera-

ture offers,” said Ms. Andres. “It gives people new understandings of themselves, others, and the world. It invites people to see beyond personal circumstances and move forward in life.” Some of the feedback Ms. Andres receives can be particularly rewarding. “When participants report to us that they are reading the stories we read to them when their families come to visit them in prison, or are reading more frequently with their children and experience the joy it can bring, or say they are discussing it with others in the groups, then we see the positive effect it has,” she said. A coordinator who recently ended a program at a reentry center told Ms. Andres

that one of the participants said it was the best program he had experienced in all of his years of incarceration. “We’ve had prisoners tell us People and Stories is a gym for the mind,” Ms. Andres said. “Because it’s either TV or the gym.” As adult services coordinator of the Zion-Benton Public Library in Zion, Illinois, Elsie Martinez works with the Latino population of her district. “Almost 30 percent is Latino, so we’re trying to find more services to reach them,” she said during the training. “This has been fabulous. It’s really helpful. The group I’m targeting are parents we got connected with through the school district, and the Latino mothers are very interested in growing and learning.” Ms. Welsh, who is with the High Plains Library District in Greeley, Colorado, said she works with people who don’t always use the library or know what resources it offers. “I make sure they k now what’s available,” she said. “I facilitate civics preparation classes, and these people are so focused on getting their citizenship that they don’t always have time to enjoy literature. I’m hoping to use People and Stories to integrate them into using the library in a deeper way. The citizenship program draws them in, but it doesn’t always make them active patrons. We’re using literature as a portal, using the library in a more profound way.” Ms. Andrews, of the Nevada County Library, plans to implement a People and Stories related program in January, partnering with probation officers. In addition to homeless patrons, she works with a lot of senior citizens. Fifty percent of the libraries served by the NEH grant will have programs in Spanish. “We’re thrilled about that,” said Ms. Andres. “I’m also happy with the number of new immigrants and new citizens this will serve, because the seminar style of discussion will increase the likelihood of civic participation, whether or not they are immigrants.” Ms. Andres has been involved with People and Stories/Gente y Cuentos since 1987, when she became a coordinator. In 1993, she co-founded the non-profit organization with Ms. Hirschman. She became executive director in 1996. She has watched the organization grow, and the NEH grant is a definite milestone. “What’s very thrilling about the grant is the enlarged reach to vulnerable participants we will have,” she said. “And it enlarges our geographic scope.” —Anne Levin

Question of the Week:

“What are your thoughts about the World Series and who do you think will win?” (Asked before the Royals’ won the Series)

“I thought the Cubs would go further this year especially when October 21, 2015 rolled around and a lot of the predictions from the movie Back to the Future came true. A lot of people, just like me, thought the Cubs would go further. I’m rooting for the Mets; I think everything has gone over well this year. There have been a lot of unexpected twists. I’m excited to see what happens.” —Tatianna Sims, Princeton

“I would call it even and then eventually, the Mets take it. Like 1986, they are going to do it again. I am really looking forward to them being world champions again.” —Andrew Koontz, Princeton

“So as a Mets fan, I’m obviously hoping they win. I think it is good they are back in New York and have the hometown momentum behind them.” —Emily Gittleman, Princeton

You see them blow ing in the street or beside the road. You’ll see them if you wander into t he woods. You’ll see them in streams, rivers, and the ocean. You probably have a few in your car, maybe a bag full in your garage or under the sink or in the kitchen closet. Each of us brings home hundreds of plastic bags every year — more than 100 billion total in the United States, according to the United States International Trade Commission. There’s widespread agreement that this is a problem for our environment, and widespread disagreement over the best thing to do about it. Can we break our addiction to plastic bags, which didn’t appear in grocery stores until the late 1970s, and embrace reusable non-plastic bags? The Association of New Jersey Environmental Commissions (ANJEC) contends that “Single use disposable items such as plastic bags threaten wildlife when they are mistaken for food and place unneeded strain on the natural resources used to manufacture plastic. ANJEC is supportive of all efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle single-use items and applauds Princeton for their leadership.” Princeton’s leadership in mitigating the plastic bag problem manifests itself in several different areas, but proponents of a local ordinance imposing a plastic bag fee say Princeton can do more. Bainy Suri, co-author of t he proposed ordinance along with Daniel Harris, suppor ts local recycling efforts, but stated that the only long-term solution lies not just in recycling but in reducing use of these bags. A fee is the most effective way to do that, she argued.

“This is a national and international movement that is picking up momentum,” Ms. Suri explained, “and Princeton could be a part of/leader of it.” Many cities throughout the country have either banned plastic bags or imposed a fee. with favorable results in reducing plastic bag use. Ireland instituted a plastic bag use fee in March 2002 and saw a 90 percent drop in bag consumption. San Jose, California saw similar results when its plastic bag fee was enacted, and Washington, D.C.’s five centsper-bag fee resulted in a reported 86 percent drop in use of plastic bags. England, following the lead of Wales, S c ot l a n d a n d N or t h e r n Ireland, imposed a plastic bag fee just last month and hopes to see an 80 percent reduction in supermarket use of the bags. New York City, along with Princeton and many other cities and countries, is currently considering measures to reduce plastic bag use. There are no local ordinances in New Jersey imposing plastic bag fees, though such ordinances have been proposed several times on the state level. Princeton Mayor Liz Lempert points out that there are legal issues that must be resolved before the city council can consider passing an ordinance. Ms. Suri described those issues as “nothing that can’t be worked out with a working group.” In a nonbinding referendum a year ago, Mercer County voters turned down imposition of a plastic bag fee, but Princeton voters supported the measure by a 3-1 margin. Meanwhile Sustainable Princeton and the Princeton Merchants Association are carrying on a voluntary recycling program called Re-

duce, Reuse & Recycle. Also known as the ABC campaign, this program urges businesses to “Ask” first if customers need a bag, for customers to “Bring” their own reusable bags and for everyone to “Collect” and recycle plastic bags. “One of the advantages of the recycling program is that it addresses not just shopping bags but the great volume of additional plastic that comes into our homes including newspaper delivery bags, dry cleaning bags, and food packaging,” Ms. Lempert pointed out. James J. McCaffrey, president of McCaffrey’s Market, stated that, in support of the recycling program, McCaffrey’s has accepted plastic bags from other merchants’ collection points and from the township collection site, collecting over 800,000 bags, about 200 pounds, since August 1. In a May letter to Town Topics, Mr. McCaffrey affirmed his commitment to work closely with Princeton environmental groups but said that the proposed [plastic bag fee] ordinance “would place McCaffrey’s at a significant competitive disadvantage. None of our competitors operate within Princeton, which means that none of them would be subject to the mandatory bag fee.” Ms. Lempert praised McCaffrey’s recycling efforts and described the store as “a terrific partner in helping manage the program.” Ms. Suri too, despite her commitment to bringing her ordinance before the council, described McCaffrey’s as “a good green community partner” and “a very convenient store with many loyal, local shoppers.” Ms. Suri stated that many merchants Continued on Next Page

support the bag fee and that she did not think shoppers would turn away from McCaffrey’s or other local businesses to avoid a ten cent plastic bag fee. Ms. Suri pointed out some of the drawbacks to recycling. McCaffrey’s recycled bags go to the Trex Company where they are recycled into material for decks and other building products, but most plastic bags go straight to a landfill, and they are not biodegradable. Even the Trex decking eventually ends up in the landfill, Ms. Suri added. She also cited a problem with many recycling stations not accepting plastic bags, even though ten new containers for recycling plastic bags are now in place around town. “At Princeton University,” Ms. Suri pointed out, “every single recycling bin is taking these bags.” Ms. Suri urged Princeton to carefully assess its recycling program and measure the results, which she feels will justify the implementation of her proposed ordinance. Mayor Lempert, described the enormity of the prob-

lem and the challenges for Princeton in moving ahead on the proposed plastic bag ordinance without support on the state and federal levels: “Plastic bags are a huge environmental problem because so many of them end up in our waterways. Giant floating trash islands pollute our oceans. The largest ‘landfills’ in the world are not on land but in our oceans. The Eastern Pacific Garbage Patch floats between Hawaii and California, and is estimated to be twice as big as the state of Texas. In a perfect world, there would be a national or international effort to combat the problem, or at the very least, state legislation. However, like many other important issues of our day, inaction at the federal and state level has pushed the problem down to municipalities to address.” —Donald Gilpin

Swatting Forum continued from page one

“swatting” has disrupted Princeton Public Schools a total of ten times since it started last spring, most recently on October 20 at Johnson Park. “It’s the highest priority event that you’ll see us respond to. It’s our children, our most precious possession,” Mr. Sutter stated. “We’ve made very very good progress,” he added, emphasizing that this is a nationwide phenomenon — from Alaska to Arizona, Washington, Oregon, New York, and, just last week, Fairfield, Connecticut, where every school in the district was simultaneously targeted. “It’s an epidemic,” he said. Mr. Cochrane described the perpetrators as v ideo game players scoring points for the threatening calls they’re making, for the schools they’re disrupting, and for the evacuations they’re causing. “It’s a game for them,” Mr. Cochrane said, “but it’s not a game to us.” M r. S u t te r e x p l a i n e d , “There have been many arrests nationwide. That’s the good news. We are working to link these incidents to our incidents. The unfortunate news is that these incidents continue.” Though unable to reveal specif ics, Mr. Cochrane stated that a next step in pursuing these investigations involves technological enhancements to the phone system that w ill help in tracing the sources of these threats.

Along with the focus on investigation, the police and schools are working together to refine their responses. There’s been confusion, Mr. Sutter said, “about why we respond certain ways one time, and certain different ways other times.” He explained that these threats are often detailed and complicated. “Threat assessment is more difficult than it used to be.” For example, evacuation would sometimes be the most prudent response, but obviously not if the phone call threat involved a bomb in the parking lot. “We always err on the side of caution,” Mr. Sutter reiterated. Based on the details in the threat, “we do the safest, most prudent response,” which may be evacuation, sheltering, or locking down. “We’re refining our response and hopefully as we go forward, we’ll be able to mitigate these situations.” Both Mr. Sutter and Mr. Cochrane repeatedly emphasized their understanding and concern for the students, parents, teachers, and administrators involved in these incidents. “Every time I hear these calls go out, my heart sinks into my stomach,” Mr. Sutter stated. “We’re parents too. We’re sympathetic — let’s put it that way.” After speaking for a total of about 30 minutes, Mr. Sutter and Mr. Cochrane invited questions from community members. T h e q u e s t ion s r a nge d widely. Many parents were curious about the behavior

of the “gaming community” perpetrators — “What are the rules of the game? ” “How organized are they?” “As organized as people playing video games,” Mr. Sutter replied, and he assured the gathering that federal investigators are exploring those same questions in their ongoing investigations throughout the country and beyond. Other questions concerned the dilemma of responding to threats that are most probably fraudulent — no active device has been found in any of the ten recent swatting cases in Princeton schools, Mr. Sutter answered. “We’re forced to react to these incidents as if they’re real. We always err on the side of caution, but we’re trying to mitigate the response.” Several parents sought f ur t her infor mation and expressed some concerns about how these situations are communicated to students, and Mr. Cochrane explained procedures in place at the different grade levels, with middle school and high school students being directly informed of the situation, while often certain information is withheld from elementary students. The overall tone of the forum was highly supportive of school and police efforts in addressing the swatting incidents. T he audience applauded at one point in response to a father’s appreciative “you’re doing a great job.” —Donald Gilpin You can now purchase a copy of

Alerting Princeton to Ordinance Mandating That Private Sector Employers Offer Paid Sick Leave

To the Editor: I took particular notice when I heard that a group called, “Working Families’ Alliance” had descended on Princeton (ever notice how every special interest advocacy group has a puppy-friendly name?) This group — headquartered in Brooklyn — has decided that they know best how we should govern our unique town, a relative oasis of prosperity in the bleak landscape of New Jersey’s limp economy. So, according to press reports, they have delivered a piece of legislation to Princeton’s Mayor and Council and are now agitating for quick approval. The ordinance in question mandates that all private sector employers provide paid sick leave to both full and part-time employees in order to “reduce the spread of communicable disease and contagion.” It seems strange that a law focused on public health would specifically exclude workers employed in government or in the school district. Do we not believe that all workers in our schools or government buildings should be similarly protected against contagion? The inescapable conclusion is that this new ordinance is not really about public health at all, but rather an attempt to exact another tax on private employers. Most reasonable people would agree that it would be great if all employers, including municipal government, were able to offer paid time off to all employees. But it is a different question to ponder whether it is reasonable or fair or even good policy for government to demand that employers offer this benefit. My informal survey of the larger employers in town suggests that the most successful and established businesses already give full-time workers paid time off. It is simply good business for them to retain their best workers. But is it fair for government to coerce a small, “mom-andpop” shop that is struggling to afford Princeton’s sky-high taxes and rents to pay a wage that it cannot support? Do we want to destroy the cultural diversity and special character of our town by driving out all the small businesses in favor of a Disneyesque streetscape where only Starbucks and J. Crew can afford to pay? Another insidious element of the proposed ordinance is that it discriminates against the unskilled workers who typically enter the workforce through part-time work. Think of the worker with limited educational achievement who proves his worth and value to an employer by starting in a part-time role before earning his or her full-time position. Or think of your children who gladly accept inferior benefits in order to land that coveted part-time summer work. Why would an employer take a risk on new or untested or seasonal part-time workers if the law dictates a cost that exceeds the value of their input? What will you tell your kids when they cannot find any summer jobs available in Princeton? Our elected officials talk about the need to protect affordability and the character and diversity of the town while keeping taxes low and the economy strong. These are goals on which we all agree. But actions speak louder than words. SCOTT SIPPrEllE Chambers Street

BOOK REVIEW

When Baseball Is Stranger Than Fiction: If Shoeless Joe Is Here, Can J.D. Salinger Be Far Behind?

n the course of checking to see whether the 2015 World Series is the first to begin and end in extra innings, I found that the longest game ever played without being called a tie or suspended was between the New York Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals on September 11, 1974. The game lasted 7 hours and 45 minutes, and when the Cardinals won it 4-3 in the 25th inning, it was 3:13 a.m. and only a thousand fans were still at Shea Stadium. Writing a few weeks ago when post-season play had just begun, I quoted catcher Bengie Molina’s father telling Bengie that it was possible for a baseball game to last forever if no team scored. The idea that baseball could defy space and time sounded to Bengie “more like God than anything I heard in church.” If I’m thinking of extra innings in cosmic terms — baseball’s version of the afterlife — it’s because I’ve been reading W.P. Kinsella’s novel Shoeless Joe (1982), the basis for the 1989 film Field of Dreams. Among the novel’s numerous challenges to the “suspension of disbelief” are two formidable fantasies: the return of baseball legend Shoeless Joe Jackson to a ball field laid out for him (“If you build it, he will come”) and the forced return of literary legend J.D. Salinger from self-imposed exile in New Hampshire. An even more improbable leap of the imagination for Kinsella than the resurrection of Jackson was the notion of a fictional baseball-loving Salinger ultimately going along with the field-of-dreams fantasy. Still more improbable was that the real-life Salinger would allow himself to be written into someone else’s novel. Said Kinsella in an interview given shortly after Salinger’s death in January 2010, “His lawyers wrote my publisher’s lawyers saying he was outraged and offended to be portrayed in the novel and they would be very unhappy if it were transferred to other media.” Being “too chicken,” given the clear hint of a lawsuit, the “movie people” replaced Salinger with the character played by James Earl Jones. This major concession aside, it still beggars belief that the “outraged and offended” author permitted the full-scale liberties taken by Kinsella, who consigned his version of Salinger to a crucial, fully developed role in the novel culminating in a long rhapsodic speech that most likely would have had the real-life Salinger fuming if he’d ever read it. To top it off, Kinsella titled the concluding chapter of Shoeless Joe, “The Rapture of J.D. Salinger,” wherein Holden Caulfield’s creator is content to join the team of the living dead (“publishing is such a pale horse compared to this”), disappearing with teammates Shoeless Joe and Happy Felsch and the others into the “retreating mirage like a boat sailing into a fog bank.” Allie’s Mitt So why did an author so famously and sometimes litigiously protective of his privacy and his work allow Shoeless Joe to see the light? If he was truly “outraged and offended,” wouldn’t Salinger’s lawyers have leaned on Kinsella to do what the filmmakers did and rename and revise the Salinger char-

acter? On the other hand, it’s entirely possible that the author of The Catcher in the Rye appreciated the transcendent as well as the everyday virtues of the national pastime. “We loved baseball,” Margaret Salinger says in her memoir Dream Catcher, after describing how her father taught her to play — “He came out almost every afternoon and pitched to me, played catch with me, and a game we called ball-on-the-roof, which was a variation of a city kid’s game played against an apartment building wall.” Then of course there’s The Catcher in the Rye itself, the title taken from Holden Caulfield’s claim that the only thing he’d

communist-true-believer named Theodore watching the Brooklyn Dodgers “murder” the Cincinnati Reds. It was a treat to transition instantly from that to the game-tying home run by Kansas City’s Alex Gordon that extended the action into the extra-inning afterlife where Chris Young, the tallest player in major league baseball, shut down the Mets for the last three innings. What makes baseball stranger than fiction? For Princetonians, Game One had a Hollywood ending, given the fact that Chris Young graduated from the University in 2002 with a degree in politics after writing a senior thesis about racial stereotypes in baseball while pitching for the Hickory N.C.

really like to be is the catcher standing on the edge of some “crazy cliff” where thousands of little kids are playing in a big field of rye and he’s there to catch anybody who starts to go over the edge. And then there’s Holden’s dead brother Allie’s mitt, which has poems written in green ink “all over the fingers and the pocket and everywhere” so “he’d have something to read when he was on the field.” If you look online, you can even find a baseball card showing Salinger as catcher on the Quirk Books All-Stars. Princeton’s Chris Young The night of the first game of the World Series my wife and I enjoyed a piece of vintage Hollywood from 1940 called Comrade X that ends with Clark Gable as a reporter for the Topeka Whatzit and Hedy Lamarr as Moscow street car conductor and ex-

Crawdads the summer before his senior year. A hundred years ago, September 29, 1915, another Princeton man, Charles Bernard “King” Lear of the Cincinnati Reds, threw the last pitch of his brief Major League career against the Chicago Cubs. If you think I’m fantasizing, you can look up King Lear of Princeton online, and then check out the Poe Brothers. What other university on the planet can claim two athletes named Edgar Allan Poe and King Lear? And how about Moe Berg, the guy Casey Stengel called “the strangest man ever to play baseball” who graduated magna cum laude from Princeton in modern languages and after 15 seasons in the majors became a spy for the O.S.S. during World War II. Here’s Hemingway You get a midwesterner’s perspective on

What Will You Find During Medicare Open Enrollment?

World Series baseball in Ernest Hemingway’s short, posthumously published piece, “Crossing the Mississippi,” which begins on “the Kansas City train” with Nick Adams thinking about the World Series in New York and “of Happy Felsch’s home run in the first game … the white dot of the ball on its far trajectory toward the green fence at center field … and the exulting roar from the spectators as the ball landed in a knot of scrambling fans in the open bleachers.” That’s the same Happy Felsch who is walking beside J.D. Salinger and Joe Jackson in Shoeless Joe’s final field-of-dreams mirage. Baseball surfaces again in the conversation between Nick and Bill in “The Three Day Blow,” from Hemingway’s first collection, In Our Time (1925). It’s October, “the best time of year” and Nick is saying he’d like to see the World Series and wondering if “the Cards will ever win a pennant …. Gee, they’d go crazy’” — which happened a year later when the Cards beat the Murderers Row Yankees in the 1926 World Series, thanks to the Game 7 heroics of Grover Cleveland Alexander. Speaking of Hollywood endings, “Old Pete” was played by Ronald Reagan in 1952’s The Winning Team. Flash forward to 1985, three years after Shoeless Joe was published, Reagan was president and the Kansas City Royals were world champions at the Cardinals’ expense in a Series that turned on the most infamous blown call in baseball history. Now here they are again. As Curly sings in Oklahoma, “Everything’s like a dream in Kansas City/It’s better than a magic lantern show.” And the Royals “have gone about as fer as they could go.” And Where’s Salinger? With only two months left in 2015, the year that was to mark the end of the fivedecades-and-counting wait for new work by J.D. Salinger, the time is right for some lateinning literary heroics. Here on the darkling plain of literature’s field of dreams, it’s the bottom of the ninth, the game’s on the line, we need a pitcher with magic stuff or a hitter with a magic bat, or both in one as in the stoopball feats of Seymour Glass, the character at the heart of Salinger’s later work. As described in Seymour: An Introduction, a stoopball home run was scored “only when the ball sailed just high and hard enough to strike the wall of the building across the street without being caught on the bounce-off.” Seymour “scored a home run nearly every time he was up,” for instead of letting fly “with a hard sidearm motion” like everyone else, he “faced the crucial area and threw straight down at it … and the ball zoomed back over his head … straight for the bleachers as it were.” ut where is Salinger? Who’s blocking his way to the field that his many readers have built for him? With the ever-patient, ever-expectant crowd waiting for an announcement explaining the delay, why is the PA system silent? Why in all this time, five years and counting, have we had no word from his heirs about the unpublished work? We’re into extra innings. When will we finally get the promised long relief we need? Where’s the closer of our dreams? —Stuart Mitchner

Author and NFTE Founder In Labyrinth Conversation

Author of An Entrepreneur’s Manife sto S teve Mariotti will lead a panel with Rising Tide Capital’s Michael Caslin, Empact CoFounder Sheena Lindahl, Forbes columnist Michael Simmons, and Kiante “The Sneaker Man” Young at Labyrinth Books on Saturday, November 7 at 3 p.m. Mr. Mariotti, the founder of NFTE [Network For Teaching Entrepreneurship], makes a case for the power of entrepreneurship to combat poverty, terrorism, and totalitarianisms around the globe, and explains how we can support and encourage the world’s entrepreneurs. “There is no more revolutionary act,” he writes, “than starting a business.” Mariotti left a successful business career in 1982 to become a Special Ed teacher in such New York City neighborhoods as East New York, Brooklyn, and Fort Apache in the South Bronx. Frustrated by his rowdy classrooms, Mariotti discovered he could reach and motivate his students by teaching them to run small businesses. This exper ience inspired him to create NFTE in 1987 to bring entrepreneurship education to low-income youth, and empower them to create their own pathways out of poverty. Over 600,000 young people worldw ide have graduated from NFTE programs since. Mr. Mariotti is a regular contributor to the Huffington Post and the author of The Yo u n g E n t r e p r e n e u r ’s Guide to Starting and Running a Business, Entrepreneurship: Owning Your Future, Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management, and Entrepreneurs In Profile.

MUSIC REVIEW

Princeton Pro Musica Presents Mendelssohn’s Immortal “Elijah”

elix Mendelssohn did very little in the field of opera, however, his sacred oratorios are as theatrical as any 19th-century operatic work. In particular, the oratorio Elijah, premiered in 1846, musically depicts a dramatic Biblical story through arias, recitatives, and choruses, infused with the composer’s gift for melodic writing. The more than 100-voice Princeton Pro Musica, conducted by Ryan James Brandau, presented a well-informed performance of this work to a very appreciative audience on Sunday afternoon in Richardson Auditorium, showing off the capabilities of the chorus as well as four seasoned vocal soloists. Dr. Brandau used the full forces of Pro Musica, combined with a smaller orchestra than symphonic choruses usually use in performances of this piece. Although Mendelssohn originally scored Elijah to include a full complement of instruments as well as an ophicleide (part of the family of keyed bugles) and organ, the orchestra in Sunday afternoon’s performance had chamber-sized stringed sections with pairs of winds and brass. Keeping the orchestra on the small side kept the performance true to Mendelssohn’s ties to the Baroque era, and removed pressure from the singers to work to be heard over the players, serving both chorus and soloists well. Elijah is nothing without a compelling title character, and bass-baritone Dashon Burton easily fit the bill. Imposing from the first aria and able to find operatic characters in the music, Mr. Burton made it clear that when Elijah spoke, people needed to listen. One could especially hear the supplication in Mr. Burton’s recitatives from the fourth scene of the oratorio. Mr. Burton’s best operatic counterpart in the performance was soprano Laquita Mitchell, also a seasoned performer of 19th-century opera. Ms. Mitchell changed vocal style easily among the different moods and emotions of the music. In her keynote aria “Hear Ye, Israel,” Ms. Mitchell’s plaintive interpretation was perfectly matched by pairs of clarinets, oboes, and flutes. The vocal quartet was rounded out by mezzo-soprano Sarah Nelson Craft and tenor Rexford Tester. Ms. Craft provided a solid vocal base to her opening duet with Ms. Mitchell, and came into her own in Part II as an “Angel” guiding Elijah. Mr. Tester was lyrical in his approach to conveying the text, not as operatic as the other three singers, but nevertheless effective.

Much of Mendelssohn’s best melodic writing in this work belonged to the chorus, which Dr. Brandau had prepared to be precise and crisp in numerous a cappella sections. Pro Musica excelled in the homophonic and chordal choruses (such as the closing choruses to each half of the concert), and the men’s sections were especially well blended throughout the concert. Dr. Brandau had spaced out the chorus on the stage in slightly mixed formation, enabling sections to hear one another. The women’s sections were cleaner in the gentler choruses, but the ensemble as a whole maintained good control over the music throughout this long dramatic work. Mendelssohn wrote a small solo part specifically for a child, often cast as a boy soprano. For this role, Dr. Brandau selected a member of the Princeton Girlchoir Cantores, the ensemble under the Girlchoir umbrella for high school girls. Accompanied by single flute in her solo lines, soprano Isabella Kopits was lovely, matching the flute perfectly, and showed an innocence which did not detract from her insistence that there was no response to Elijah’s calls to God. Dr. Brandau also assigned an “angel’s trio” to the Cantores — a perfect choice in vocal tone and weight. The Cantores sang with well-tuned chords and nicely tapered phrases. Accompanying the chorus and soloists in this performance was a well-balanced orchestra which always maintained a subtle backdrop to the chorus and soloists. The trumpets and trombones were effective in introducing Elijah, and especially in the opening orchestral introduction, one could hear that something catastrophic was to come. Oboist Carl Oswald, clarinetist Pascal Archer, and flutist Mary Schmidt provided elegant solo lines, often echoes to a vocal soloist. lijah is a long oratorio, and Dr. Brandau evidently felt the necessity to cut a number of small numbers (including two of the most well-known choruses in the work), but it may not really have been necessary. Dr. Brandau kept a good flow to the performance, maintaining drama which held the audience’s attention. With Pro Musica providing its customary solid work and Mr. Burton clearly a star in the making, Sunday afternoon’s performance went by in a well-performed flash. —Nancy Plum

Princeton Pro Musica’s next performance will be on Saturday, December 19 at 8 p.m. in the Kendall Theater at The College of New Jersey. Featured in this concert will be J.S. Bach’s “Christmas Oratorio.” For information call (609) 6835122 or visit www.princetonpromusica.org.

The Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Dance will present “Choreographers in Residence and in Conversation,” featuring three choreographers associated with the Princeton Dance Program on Tuesday, November 10 at 6:30 p.m. in the Patricia and Ward Hagan ’48 Dance Studio, 185 Nassau Street. Choreographers Beth Gill, a 2015-16 Hodder Fellow; Dean Moss, a current guest artist; and Pavel Zustiak, a 2015-17 Princeton Arts Fellow, will present works-in-progress, as well as discuss the doubts, difficulties, and revelations they’ve encountered in the course of their current artistic undertakings. This event is free and open to the public. “Choreographers in Residence and in Conversation,” an initiative begun in 2012, is designed to provide professional artists working in the University’s Program in Dance with additional support to further their work on a current artistic project. The initiative seeks to provide space and funds to these artists, and to facilitate their connections with other artists on campus, with students, and with the

artistic conversation providing a platform for these artists to share their choreographic process with each other and with the Princeton community. Gill, Moss, and Zustiak will present some excerpts of their work and describe how they have approached their projects in terms of their choreographic tools and processes. The choreographers will answer questions from each other and the audience. The emphasis in this initiative is on the artistic process. “Choreographers rarely have opportunities to share their processes with each other and to learn just how their peers approach this business of dance-making,” notes Susan Marshall, director of the Program in Dance. “I am happy we can provide an opportunity for these highly regarded professional choreographers on our campus to share their work and thinking with each other and our students.” To learn more about this event, the Program in Dance, and the more than 100 events offered annually by the Lewis Center, visit arts.princeton. edu. ———

Movie Recounts British Females’ Fight for the Right to Vote

graduates, or married to a politician. However, a decade later, it was extended to all British citizens over 21 on an equal basis. Directed by Sarah Gavron (Brick Lane), Suffragette is a moving documentary drama set in London during the critical period leading up to the Parliament’s passage of the Representation of the People Act of 1918. The film is a substantially fictionalized version of events, since only two of the characters here were real life heroines, namely, Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928) and Emily Wilding Davison (1872-1913), portrayed by Meryl Streep and Natalie Press, respectively. Streep merely makes a cameo appearance as Pankhurst, a pioneer who plays an inspirational role in the movement. Still, she may earn her 20th Oscar nomination because she delivers yet another sterling performance. The picture’s other historical figure, Davison, was a fiery activist who was periodically imprisoned for advocating arson, stone throwing, and other violent tactics in her zealous pursuit of the right to vote. The movie is about Maud Watts (Carey Mulligan), a protagonist who is a creation of scriptwriter Abi Morgan’s (The Iron Lady) imagination. Initially, she’s portrayed as a fed up steam laundry employee who desires to improve women’s lot in the workplace in the areas of wages, sexual harassment, and safe working conditions. In many respects, Maud’s persona is reminiscent of Norma Rae (1979), the feisty union organizer played by Sally Field. Suffragette is a poignant reminder of just how far women have come over the past century. Oh, and yes, the very capable Carey Mulligan is likely to be remembered come awards season, too. Excellent (HHHH). Rated PG-13 for intense violence, mature themes, brief profanity, and partial nudity. Running time: 106 minutes.

owadays, most women take for granted the fact that they can vote. Nevertheless, they owe a big debt of gratitude to the mostly unsung suffragettes who made great sacrifices for decades before securing that hard-fought right. In the United States, women got the vote in 1919 when the 19th amendment to the constitution was adopted. The year before, England granted the franchise to females over 30 who were either landowners, college

Dr. Aly Cohen, Director of The Smart Human, Educates People About Health Risks of Chemicals

r. Aly Cohen is on a mission. Board-certified rheumatologist, integrative medicine physician, and environmental health specialist, she is the founder and medical director of The Smart Human. Dr. Cohen is recognized as one of the leading authorities on the harmful effects of exposure to everyday chemicals in the U.S. Helping people to make smart choices in a world in which they are constantly bombarded by chemicals is her goal.

IT’S NEW To Us

“The Smart Human seeks to educate, coach, and empower everyday people to make safer, smarter choices for human health,” explains Dr. Cohen. “We help hospitals, schools, and manufacturers make changes to reduce unsafe chemical exposure to the children and adults whom they serve.” A graduate of Princeton Day School and the University of Pennsylvania, she received her medical training at Hahnemann University Hospital of Medicine in Philadelphia, and completed her internship and residency in internal medicine at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. She continued her specialist training in rheumatology and auto-immune diseases at Montefiore Hospital/Albert Einstein Hospital in the Bronx, N.Y.

Integrative Options Dr. Cohen has practiced for 12 years, and in 2012, opened her own office in integrative rheumatology at 312 Applegarth Road, Monroe Township. Her practice focuses on both traditional western medical management of rheumatological ailments, as well as integrative options for total wellness, such as bio-feed back, acupuncture, cognitive therapy, diet and exercise counseling, environmental toxin counseling, smoking cessation, stress management, and sleep evaluation. Dr. Cohen also received training in medical acupuncture from the Helms Institute at UCLA and in Environmental Medicine from Dr. Andrew Weil and the Arizona Center for Internal Medicine. She has studied and worked with Dr. Weil and his colleagues in the field of integrative medicine during the past five years. In 2012, she was honored as the recipient of the Jones / Lovell Rheumatology Scholarship at the Center for Integrative Medicine in Tucson, Arizona, and in 2015, she was awarded the New Jersey Heroes Award in Education. Dr. Cohen explains that her focus on The Smar t Human is an outgrowth of her interest in human evolution. “I was an anthropology minor at the University of Pennsylvania, and I believe we must look back at human health and biology to move forward. The human body

is truly amazing. Our bodies have evolved over 2.5 million years to fight off infection, think, feel, break down food, detoxify harmful substances, and create life — a series of evolutionary miracles, built on our everchanging environment. “ Wit h i n t he pas t 20 0 years, human creativity has brought forth more change than ever before in history. The industrial and technological revolutions have transformed the human experience and life-style into a fast-paced world of technology, chemical production, and greater convenience. “With all of the chemical influx and immersion, the human body has not been able to appropriately evolve on the evolutionary timeline as fast as our surroundings have changed. The polluted air, food additives, toxins, and emotional stressors, to name a few, have had a negative effect on our bodies.” 87,000 Chemicals More than 87,000 chemicals are commercially available in the U.S., points out Dr. Cohen. They are used in plastics, cosmetics, food additives and preservatives, computers, fabrics, toys, furniture, cars, and other products. “Most chemicals are not tested for toxicit y,” she adds, “and only five chemicals have been banned in the U.S. since 1976. Asbestos is still prevalent, and is a known carcinogen. “The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency does not

review chemicals for how they affect growing fetuses, infants, and teens. Our bodies are sponges. Everything that goes in, on, or around them is absorbed. Babies today are born with more than 200 chemicals in their bloodstream. They are actually born polluted.” Dr. Cohen especially wants to reach out to and inform younger people of the risks of chemicals to their health. As she explains, “Regarding personal care products today, including shampoo, hair conditioner, cosmetics, deodorant, etc., studies show that women typically use 12 a day, men six, and teens 16. The chemicals in these products get into the body and can be passed onto the next generation. “Health is a combination of environment and genetics, and the environment has much more impact on our diseases today. For example, studies show that breast cancer is 90 percent environmental and 10 percent genetic.” A number of illnesses can be traced to chemicals, continues Dr. Cohen. “The endocrine system is affected by chemicals that can cause changes in the thyroid, inclu d i ng t hy roi d c a n cer, breast cancer, gynecological problems, obesity, and diabetes.” Reasonable Choices When people make different choices and changes in diet and lifestyle, Dr. Cohen has seen improvement. “I’ve had patients with auto-immune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, who have significantly improved with changes in lifestyle, diet, and stress

SMART CHOICES: “I enjoy educating people. This is the heart of what I do. I truly want people to learn and think about their choices, and make themselves healthier. The Smart Human is about living healthier in a chemical world.” Dr. Aly Cohen, M.D., FACR, FABOIM, board-certified rheumatologist, integrative medicine physician, and environmental health specialist, is founder and medical director of The Smart Human. management. “We have to live in the world we are given, and so it is about making reasonable choices. The choices can be for fewer chemicals and less harmful chemicals. For example, try to buy a product with ingredients that are familiar, that you understand and recognize. “My goal is to have The Smart Human as a resource for people, including a website and a book. It’s not judgmental, but offers helpful, practical, usable, and costeffective information. The Smart Human uses all available medical and toxicology texts, research articles, data bases, and experts to create real life recommendations for healthy living in a chemical-filled world.” Dr. Cohen is also writing a book, The Smart Human: Essential Guide to Liv ing Healthy in a Chemical World, and is co-editing another book Integrative Environmental Health, which is part of Dr. Andrew Weil’s academic book series. Chemical Exposure In her desire to make more people aware of the risks of chemicals to health, Dr. Cohen lectures nationally and locally in schools, healthcare facilities, medical schools, and other organizations and institutions. She has been a consultant for major corporations such as Knowledge Universe to help reduce the chemical exposure of infants and toddlers in more than 2,000 KinderCare Daycares across the U.S. Her strong interest in environmental chemical ex-

posure has also led to her current collaboration with the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org) to create a CME accredited presentation on endocrine disrupting chemicals and their relationship to human health, designed specifically for physicians, nurses, and other health professionals. In addition, she has extended her message to Princeton High School, where she is piloting a program to integrate environmental health information into the current health curriculum. “My goal is to help as many people as I can,” she explains. “The challenge is to reach the largest audience possible, to make people aware that even if there is no cough or no rash, there can still be possible long-term health implications due to chemical exposure. “We see the emphasis on ‘going green’ in the environment; I want to ‘green’ our bodies. The relationship with the environment is critical. There is only so much that can be controlled. I want to help you with what you CAN control. “Everybody can become a ‘smart human’ if the appropr iate infor mation is presented to them. Knowing the potential threats in your environment will give you the option to make better choices.” Dr. Cohen can be reached at (609) 662-5212.

Sparked By Junior Star Lussi’s Finishing Touch, Surging Tiger Women’s Soccer Wins Ivy Title

osting a stingy Cornell team last Saturday that had yielded only six goals in its first 15 games, the Princeton University women’s soccer team didn’t want to get mired in a defensive battle with the Big Red. Princeton junior star Tyler Lussi didn’t waste any time getting the Cornell defense on its heels, arching a shot into the back of the net to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead 7:51 into the contest. “I think it settled us down,” said Lussi. “I think we could have had a couple more early goals and we were going after them.” With Princeton clinging to a 1-0 early in the second half, Lussi helped manufacture another Tiger goal as she lofted a cross into the box that junior Jesse McDonough headed into the back of the net. “I saw Jesse and Mimi in the box and I just tried to nice and easy chip it over and Jesse was right there and all she had to do was place it in the corner and she did that and we were up 2-0 so it was great,” said Lussi. The Tigers never looked back, going on to win by that 2-0 margin as they won their 11th straight game and clinched the Ivy League’s automatic bid to the upcoming NCAA tournament, improving to 13-3 overall and 6-0 Ivy. “I think we controlled things throughout the entire game and I think we were just able to play it around them,” said Lussi. “Once we played it wide, it worked to our benefit. That is our style. I think it was just an amazing game, it worked well for us.” Princeton was playing with some extra emotion on Saturday as its three members of the Class of 2016, Emily Sura, Stephanie Paloscio, and Catherine Hartigan, were honored before the game in the program’s annual Senior Day ceremony. “We wanted to win it for them, we knew coming into this game that we had to win and it was just a special day,” said Lussi. “It was special for them.” It has been a special season for Princeton, which clinched the outright Ivy title later in the day when second place Harvard played to a 1-1 draw with Dartmouth. “It means everything to all of us, to the coaches Sean (Driscoll), Kelly (Boudreau), Mike (Poller), and Ron (Celestin) and the entire team to be back in the tournament,” said Lussi, reflecting on the program’s first Ivy title since 2012. “For some of us, it is the first time and

we are going to take every single moment and run with it. Lussi is on a great run this year as she leads the league with 13 goals. “I think that working with new players has definitely helped,” said Lussi, a native of Lutherville, Md., who now has 41 goals in her Princeton career, tying her for second with Linda DeBoer ’86 with 41, behind the 47 piled up by program record holder Esmeralda Negron ’05. “I think in the first few games we had to figure each other out, what our strengths are. As the season went on and we have won so many games in a row, we have all improved. It starts from the back line to the midfield, getting it to the forwards and the connecting throughout the entire field has helped everyone be successful.” Connecting with freshman forward Mimi Asom, who has 10 goals in her debut campaign, has helped make Princeton particularly dangerous. “Mimi and I have really worked well off of each other,” said Lussi. “We understand what type of balls we like to play and I think it has been amazing and we are going to keep this going.” In Lussi’s view, first-year head coach Sean Driscoll has helped get things going in the right direction this season. “Coming in, his positive attitude and energy and his desire to win has gone throughout the entire team,” said Lussi. “I think everybody over the summer and in preseason and during the season has stepped up because we have so few players. Everybody has had to play such a pivotal role on the team and it has been incredible with him and the entire coaching staff. Every single player on this team and the coaching staff has a part of this and it has just been amazing.” It was an amazing feeling for Driscoll to clinch his first-ever trip to the NCAA tourney. “It is what you are trying for, I have been coaching 12 years in different colleges,” said Driscoll, who previously coached at Fairfield University and Manhattan College on the Division I level. “The last two years I was on the doorstep. We lost on PKs last year and lost in the final the year before that. I was devastated. As I told the kids, I never understood why and now I know, it was meant to be here with this team. It is a great experience for the first year and they are a great group

CHAMPIONSHIP MOMENT: Members of the Princeton University women’s soccer team celebrate after they defeated Cornell 2-0 last Saturday, a win which gave the Tigers at least a tie for the Ivy League title and the league’s automatic bid to the upcoming NCAA tournament. Later in the day, Princeton earned the outright Ivy title as second place Harvard tied 1-1 with Dartmouth.

They deserve everything they get. They put in a lot of time and effort and they work exceptionally hard and their spirit is very high. I think they earned this opportunity to be an NCAA representative.” Driscoll liked the way his team broke down the Cornell defense. “The goals we scored were great,” asserted Driscoll. “Jess’s goal was fantastic; Tyler’s goal was tremendous and well taken. It took a lot of pressure off of us. We had trouble solving them. In the first half, we tried to serve the ball into the box too much. In the second half, we tried to pass the ball a lot more and I think we were a bit more dangerous overall.” Lussi has emerged as one of the most dangerous players in Princeton history. “Tyler’s numbers are staggering,” said Driscoll. “The numbers are adding up and she is only a junior; it is pretty impressive.” The Princeton defense produced an impressive effort as it posted its third shutout in the last five games. “The defending was great, Hannah (Winner) did a good job in goal,” added Driscoll. “The back four has been really, really good all season. I was really impressed with what they did.” In reflecting on his squad’s superb sea-

son, Driscoll credited a special chemistry with sparking its surge. “There is a lot of belief, there is a lot of confidence in the team and each other,” said Driscoll. “The spirit is very high. They are just so excited about playing together. They just enjoy each other’s company and they don’t want the season to end. When you have that kind of balance within the team you are going to do really well.” After wrapping up regular season play with a game at Penn on November 7, Princeton will look to keep rolling in the NCAA tournament. “I wouldn’t put anything past them; we have a lot of good weapons and we defend well so anything is possible,” said Driscoll, assessing his team’s NCAA prospects. “I don’t want to speak out of turn. We are very happy to be the league representative and we look forward to playing whoever we wind up facing.” In Lussi’s view, the Tigers will be a tough out. “I think we have played some incredible teams so far and we have proven we can beat them,” she said. “I think if we just keep up our mentality and our positive energy and urgency, we are going to do great things.” —Bill Alden

Gersoff Enjoys Big Senior Day for PU Field Hockey As Tigers Top Cornell, Clinch 11th Straight Ivy Crown

Anya Gersoff and the other members of the Class of 2016 on the Princeton University field hockey team were showered with affection in the program’s annual Senior Day ceremony last Saturday. As the Tigers took the field to host Cornell, star goalie Gersoff was looking to return the favor. “I am very appreciative of the opportunities I have been given because of being part of Princeton field hockey,” said Gersoff, who was honored along with classmates Maddie Copeland, Kate Ferrara, Debi-Michelle Jantzen, Teresa Benvenuti, and Saskia de Quant. “All I wanted to do was to allow my play to reflect that appreciation.” With 20th-ranked Princeton clinging to a 2-0 lead late in the first half against the Big Red in a critical Ivy L eague contest, G ersoff showed her appreciation by making a terrific save to keep that cushion going into intermission. “Games like this are tough because you never know when you are going to have to do something but I was happy that I was able to come through when my team needed me,” said Gersoff. Princeton came through in the second half as senior star Copeland scored two goals and the defense held the fort as the Tigers earned a 4-0 victory and earned at least a tie for the Ivy League title. Princeton, now 9-6 overall and 6-0 Ivy, plays at Penn,

13-2 overall and 5-1 Ivy, on November 7 with the winner to get the league’s automatic bid to the NCA A tournament. It marked Princeton’s 21st league crown in the last 22 seasons and 11th in a row. “I do think we took control of the game; I think it just came down to the fact that we had more energy and team spirit than them towards the end,” said Gersoff, who recorded five saves in the win. “It really showed in our play there.” Gersoff was thrilled with the energy the Tigers displayed on defense. “It is amazing, we have so many talented kids up here and everybody gave so much heart today,” said Gersoff, reflecting on the team’s defensive unit. “You can’t ask for better than that.” Princeton showed heart late in the contest when it survived three straight penalty corners to preserve the shutout. “I was a little nervous because their corner unit is very good but we practiced hard all week and I knew we would be able to handle it,” said Gersoff, who has a goals against average of 2.30 this season with three shutouts. In reflecting on her progress over her career, Gersoff cited the influence of the Tiger coaching staff. “I have had a lot of experience and I owe it all to coach Dave Williamson (assistant coach in charge of goalkeeping),” said Gersoff. “Without

him I would never be where I am today, he has taught me everything.” G ersoff has enjoyed a rich athletic experience at Princeton as she also stars as a midfielder for the Tiger women’s lacrosse team. “It is a little tough, I am really lucky to have two coaching staffs that support me and are always there for me,” added Gersoff, who has 61 goals and 13 assists in her college lax career. “Coach (Chris) Sailer was here today. Kristen comes out to lacrosse games. I have to stay in lacrosse shape during field hockey season so that is a little tough. I make it work and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” P r i nce ton h e ad coach Kristen Holmes-Winn was pleased with the way things went on Senior Day. “We just want to make sure that we honor them by playing our best hockey,” said Holmes-Winn. “The focus for today was the details of the game and the tactics. It was to make sure that we were controlling our emotion. We wanted it to be to our advantage and I thought it was clear today that ever yone wanted to make sure that the memory of the seniors’ last game on Bedford Field was a win.” Holmes-Winn wasn’t surprised that Gersoff controlled things in the cage. “Anya had just an unbelievable warmup, I was thinking wow this girl was dialed in,” said Holmes-Winn.

“S he was ver y shar p. Anya’s save before halftime was just a world class save. That was a huge moment, it gave us a two-goal cushion going into the half.” The Princeton defense kept dialed in as Cornell furiously tried to mount a rally in the second half. “In the second half, they came out having to score two goals so they were really pressing us,” said HolmesWinn. “They were putting their fullback in the midfield to try to overload zones. I think we weathered that storm really well. The corner defense was just awesome.” Copeland continued her awesome senior season, scoring two goals in a threeminute span to put the game out of reach. “It is not just finishing the goals, it is the mentality she brings to the group,” said Holmes-Winn of the former Stuart Country Day and Peddie star who has a team-high and career-best 15 goals this fall. “She is super competitive and she just loves to connect, she loves to score. Her defense has been so much better, what she does on the press is really, really smart. She knows when to stay high, she knows when to help. All of those little things just help contribute to what has been an upward tick in her whole play this season.” With Princeton heading into a vital clash at Penn, 13-2 overall and 5-1 Ivy, on November 7, that will determine who gets the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA tournament, Holmes-Winn

GOING OFF: Princeton University field hockey goalie Anya Gersoff, right, enjoys the moment after a 2014 win. Last Saturday against visiting Cornell, senior star Gersoff made five saves in earning the shutout as 20th-ranked Princeton defeated the Big Red 4-0 and earned at least a tie for the Ivy League title. The win marked Princeton’s 21st league crown in the last 22 seasons and 11th in a row.

believes her team is primed to compete hard. “I think it was really good for the girls, having a lot of confidence,” said HolmesWinn. “They train really, really hard. These last four weeks we have been pushing them really hard so we are in a nice taper phase right now. We are going to be fresh as daisies come Saturday.” Gersoff, for her part, is confident that the Tigers will

Dre Nelson has distinguished himself as a top sprinter for the Princeton University men’s Ivy League champion track team, starring in the 60 and 4x100 relay. Last Saturday, Nelson’s track experience came in handy on the football field early in the fourth quarter as the senior star took a Cornell kickoff three yards deep in the end zone and proceeded to zigzag through and past the Big Red for a scintillating touchdown return. “I told the guys on the sideline it felt like a 200 in track; it was a long way,” said Nelson, who was credited with 100 yards on the return as yards inside the end zone aren’t recorded in the college game. “Just knowing how to run from track helped. We all have a plan and coach Aurich (special teams coordinator Andrew Aurich) draws it up and everybody trusts that it is going to work. I trusted that the guys were going to make their blocks; when it works out it is great. When I cut it back, I was thinking I have just got to run, I can’t get caught. On every return, we have the mindset that we want to score or give the offense very good field position. When I see a hole or a lane open, I just try to run and hope we can get into the end zone.” Leading 17-7 coming into the second half, Princeton opened things up down the stretch of the contest, pulling away to a 47-21 victory before a crowd of 4,528 at Princeton Stadium, snapping a t wo - game losing streak and improving to 5-2 overall and 2-2 Ivy. In the early stages of the contest, though, Princeton’s offense sputtered and the teams headed into the second quarter in a 0-0 tie. The Tigers scored on an eight-yard touchdown pass from Chad Kanoff to Scott

Carpenter with 14:01 left in the half and then added another score on a John Lovett three-yard TD run to make it a 14-0 game. The Big Red drew with 10 in the third quarter as they made it 24-14 but the Tigers cruised from there, outscoring Cornell 23-7 over the last 25 minutes of the contest. “We def in itely star ted slow,” said Nelson, who also scored a rushing touchdown in the third quarter and piled up 174 all-purpose yards in the win. “I think it was very encouraging to see that we can still fight back and we didn’t sit on or dwell on it,” said the 5’5, 180-pound Nelson, a native of Stone Mountain, Ga. “We kept eying the prize. They are a very tough team and we just wanted to come in and play Princeton football and hopefully impose our will and we think it worked.” Princeton head coach Bob Surace credited Princeton’s bend-but-not-break defensive effort in the first quarter with keeping the Tigers from getting into a hole. The Big Red outgained Princeton 146 yards to 65 in the first 15 minutes of the game. Cornell spent much of the quarter in Princeton territory but came away with nothing as it had one field goal blocked, missed another three-point attempt, threw an interception, and was stopped on downs. “It is not ideal, we are not telling them to do that,” said Surace, reflecting on the defense’s ability to hold the fort. “Cornell made some really good plays. We are very resilient, we kept fighting. We have a very good field goal block team; we have blocked four this year and we have been doing a great job. Even the ones we have missed, it has hurried the kicker and things like that. We know

FULL NELSON: Princeton University running back Dre Nelson eludes a foe in action this fall. Last Saturday against visiting Cornell, senior star Nelson returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown and was credited with 174 all purpose yards to help Princeton prevail 47-21 over the Big Red and snap a two-game losing streak. The Tigers, now 5-2 overall and 2-2 Ivy League, play at Penn, 4-3 overall and 3-1 Ivy, on November 7. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski)

if we can just keep tightening down at some point and make a couple of plays, we have a chance to keep points off the board. I thought our defense did a really good job of that.” While the Princeton offense didn’t do a good job early on, it started clicking when Kanoff found tight end Carpenter on a 16-yard pass for its initial first down late in the first quarter. “I think it was three or four outs in a row; we just needed to get a first down,” said Surace, whose team ended up with 464 yards total offense and 20 first dow ns, highlighted by a career-high 127 yards rushing from junior running back Joe Rhattigan. “It wasn’t even scoring

touchdowns, it was let’s get a first down, let’s get moving, let’s get some tempo and once we got the first first down, it was like we can play football. We started executing really well. I was really happy with that. I don’t know if we really got stopped that much after the first first down, it seemed like we had one punt the rest of the game. I think with our offense and our tempo, you get a first down and we are right back on the ball and you are going and you are going. You don’t get that first down, you are not right back on the ball, the punter is coming in and we are not happy and we have to make adjustments. I thought that was really good; it meant a lot.” Bringing a two-game losing streak into the contest, it meant a lot for Princeton to get back into the win column.

“I thought we practiced really well this week,” said Surace. “I said it to the team yesterday, let’s translate that into the game.” Surace saw Nelson’s heroics as key in helping to change the course of the game. “Dre’s return and other returns got us good field position,” added Surace. “They were really, really good; I thought that ended up being a big factor.” Another factor in Princeton’s success against Cornell was the players’ businesslike approach as they juggled game preparation with academic pressure. “This was midterms week and typically midterms week has been a tough week,” said Surace. “Charlie Thompson, our t rainer, g rabbed me on Thursday and said I have been here doing this a long

time and not one guy missed an appointment. It made me, think, alright man, this is a mature team. Our guys get it because we are coming off two losses and they understand the importance of commitment, accountability, and those things.” With Princeton heading to Philadelphia this Saturday for a clash at Penn, 4-3 overall and 3-1 Ivy, Nelson believes that things are heading in the right direction for the Tigers. “Football is a momentum game at times and when you can get a win under your belt at home, it definitely can carry into the next week,” said Nelson. “We are focused on Penn now. It is one week at a time; have a great week of practice and hopefully we can get a win next week too.” —Bill Alden

Nelson’s Heroics Help PU Football Get Back on Track As Tigers Pull Away to 47-21 Victory Over Cornell

TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, NOvEmbER 4, 2015 • 30

Showing Plenty of Positives on Opening Weekend, PU Men’s Hockey Goes 1-1 in Capital City Classic Opening its season at the Capital City Classic in Trenton last weekend, the Princeton University men’s hockey team was looking to score early and come away with at least one win. Mission accomplished on both counts as Princeton got a first period goal from Eric Robinson against Yale in the opener on Friday and battled the Bulldogs toothand-nail before succumbing 3-1. A day later, the Tigers jumped out to 2-0 lead on the way to a 3-1 win over Maine. Princeton head coach Ron Fogarty liked what he saw from his team right from the opening face-off of the weekend at the Sun Bank Center. “Our energy was great at the start of the period,” said Fogarty, who is in his second year guiding the Tigers. “We had scoring opportunities, we transitioned extremely well from defense to offense. In the second period, we had to grind it out with the onslaught of opportunities that Yale had. We only gave up four grade A scoring chances during all of that time in our zone. In the third period, we had scoring chances. Unfortunately, we gave up a goal there late in the third period.” Against Maine, Princeton sharpened things up as it broke through into the win column. “In the Maine game, we made a small change to our defensive zone structure where the guys improved upon things so we didn’t see as much time in our zone,” explained Fogarty, who got goals from senior forward Kyle Rankin, sophomore defenseman Joe Grabowski, and junior forward Ben Foster in the victory. “That helped keep the puck out of our defensive zone for longer per iods of time. Colton ( Phinney) played great in goal in the five-minute penalty kill to start the third period and

that gave us momentum back and carried us to the win.” Junior goalie Phinney carried much of the load for the Tigers, making 41 saves against Yale and then coming up with 38 stops in the win over the Black Bears. “He made two to three great saves in both games when called upon,” said Fogarty. “He played solid, that is what we expect from him as the team’s best player. We expect nothing but greatness game in, game out and he provided us the opportunities to win both games.” Based on the first weekend of action, it appears that sophomore for ward Robinson will be generating a lot of opportunities this winter. “Eric Robinson has matured greatly into a stronger defensive player which is giving him the opportunity in the offensive zone,” said Fogarty. “He had a couple of endto-end rushes that resulted in scoring chances. He is on the penalty kill now. He is seeing 4-on-4 time, he has been double shifted. He is someone who has transformed his body over the summer to allow him to play more impactful minutes. He is a fluid and great skater, who gets around the ice quick.” Star defenseman Grabowski made an impact as his second period goal against Maine turned out to be the game winner. “There was great traffic in front of the net which provided the screen for Joe’s goal,” added Fogarty. “Both years now he has started off the first weekend with goals, hopefully that will continue throughout the rest of the season.” In Fogarty’s view, starting the season with a split was a confidence builder for the program. “You get a win, it gives

tangible evidence that what you have worked on produces results,” said Fogarty. “You go four or five games in without a positive result, you start asking yourself questions and there is a lot of second guessing that goes on. But to see the results occur during the first weekend is great mentally for everyone to realize you are on the same page to move forward to acquire more wins. To win early is great.” The Tigers will look to get more wins this weekend as they begin ECAC Hockey action with games at Cornell on November 6 and at Colgate on November 7. “We just need to continue to play with pace, moving the puck quicker and skating quicker to support,” said Fogarty. “It took time for the systems and the philosophies to be learned amongst the entire team last year, where a lot of time in practice was positioning people. Now our practices are about moving and being quicker, we didn’t have the opportunities to stress that last year. We have to keep pushing the pace.” —Bill Alden

PU Sports Roundup Princeton Alum Young Earns World Series Ring

Princeton University alum Chris Young ’02, who was the Ivy League’s Rookie of the Year in 1999 and had the league’s lowest ERA in both of his years with the program, became a World Series champion last Sunday night when the Kansas City Royals rallied past the New York Mets 7-2 in 12 innings in Game 5 of the World Series to take the title, four games to one. Yo u n g, a 6’10 r i g h thanded pitcher, got the win in Game 1 while throwing three scoreless innings before the Royals got a run in the bottom of the 14th to

take the opener. Young also started Game 4 on Saturday night in Citi Field and got a no-decision. Young left after four innings with the Royals trailing 2-0, but Kansas City rallied to win 5-3 and take the 3-1 series lead. ———

Trish Reilly brought a special sense of urgency as the Princeton High field hockey team hosted East Brunswick in the North 2 Group 4 sectional quarterfinals last Thursday. “Today was my last time playing on this turf so there was a lot of emotion on on the line, a lot of nostalgia,” said PHS senior midfielder Reilly. Coming from a tough 1-0 loss to Allentown in the Mercer County Tournament semifinals a week earlier during which it fought the Redbirds tooth and nail, PHS was looking to build on that effort. “We had the best game of our lives against Allentown so we are planning to

take that energy and channel it into every game,” said Reilly. With the third-seeded Little Tigers locked in a scoreless tie with sixth-seeded East Brunswick in the early going, Reilly provided PHS with a jolt of energy as she rocketed a ball throughout the circle into the cage for the first score of the game. “I was just sending it in, I trusted my teammates from there to get it in,” recalled Reilly. “It just happened to go in on its own.” After Reilly’s tally with 23 :17 remain ing in t he half, PHS scored three unanswered goals in the next 12:39 to take a 4-0 lead. “That is kind of how it

always is, we struggle for the first few minutes on getting a finish and then as we get it, the floodgates open and everyone takes a turn,” said Reilly who got an assist on one of the three goals, two of which were tallied by junior star Avery Peterson with the other coming from Jordyn Cane. PHS never looked back, pulling away to a 6-1 win as Anna Cincotta and Kennedy Corrado added second-half goals. The win improved PHS to 13-5-2 and set up a sectional semifinals matchup at second-seeded Hunterdon Central slated for November 3. “It was a confidence builder and it was also nice because we got everyone playing time today,” said Reilly, reflecting on the victory. “That is always awesome and preferable.” While Reilly has worked hard to hone her shot, she prefers to set others up. “I like dishing it out and making my team look good getting points,” said Reilly, who has committed to Lehigh University where she

will play for its field hockey program. In Reilly’s view, PHS is a team that will be tough to beat in the states. “We have a lot more high-level experience,” said Reilly. “A lot of our girls are playing in clubs so we are not scared, we are not intimidated. Last year we came out strong in our final state game but ended up losing in literally the last minute so we are just going to have that one extra minute of training to keep it going.” PHS head coach Heather Serverson liked her squad’s strong execution in the win against East Brunswick. “I think it was just everyone doing the little things well and connecting well,” said Serverson. “It wasn’t like we had one person that really stood out, everyone was able to contribute and that is the way we play best. We don’t really have superstars that we rely on, we rely on everyone to support each other.” PHS does rely on Reilly to provide a spark. “Trish tends to be the catalyst, energy-wise for the team,” said Serverson. “When she starts to get things going, other girls

fall into place and everyone starts to move in the direction with her.” While PHS faces a big challenge in Hunterdon Central (16-5), Serverson likes her team’s chance to make a big run. “I think we just need to play like we did against Allentown, when we had our best game,” said Serverson. “I think if we play our best game, we can hang with

anybody. We can get a title but in order to do that, we have to have the same energy when we come out on the field each day.” Reilly, for her part, wants to spend a lot more time on the field with her teammates. “I want this to last as long as I can because it is my last year and I don’t want to stop playing with these girls,” said Reilly. —Bill Alden

Fueled by Senior Star Bodden’s Tenacity in Midfield, PHS Girls’ Soccer Routs Sayreville 8-2 in State Opener Haley Bodden was ready to leave it all on the field as the Princeton High girls’ soccer team faced Sayreville in the first round of the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional last Monday. “Definitely as a senior I wanted to put my all into this game,” said Bodden. “We didn’t know much about Sayreville; we knew what seed they were and we knew their record but we didn’t know what types of teams they were playing before. Coming into this game, we just had a strong mindset. We knew not to underestimate them and not to overestimate them and come in strong. Technically that could have been our last game and if it was, we definitely wanted to play our hearts out.” Bodden showed heart early in the first half, blasting a shot that hit the post and

spinned away agonizingly only to head in a Devon Lis feed into the back of the net moments later to give PHS a 1-0 lead. “Devon sent me a ball over the top and I didn’t know if I could take a touch around the goalie; I didn’t and it hit the post,” recalled Bodden. “I was so upset with myself. I was thinking I need to score, I need to do this. Devon sent a perfect ball and she got the assist and I got a great header on it. It felt great.” Leading just 2-1 at halftime, the Little Tigers got on a great run in the second half, scoring five unanswered goals in the first 20 minutes as they pulled away to an 8-2 triumph. “We definitely could have been up way more in the first half so we had to put the gas on in the second half,” said Bodden.

“I think we were determined to win so that set us up for the sequences that we made and the plays. We could play a lot of through balls because they played a high line. There were some offsides but we figured out how to make diagonal runs instead of vertical runs. We had a lot of good shots, it was one of our best shooting games.” PHS, now 10-4-1, is slated to play at fourth-seeded Monroe in the sectional quarterfinals on November 5. “We definitely want to go into Monroe with the confidence that we came with into this game,” said Bodden. “We need to have the right mindset, we can’t overestimate them because that will set us back. We need to stay strong and stay as a team. Sometimes we get

scrambled so we definitely need to stay together for the game on Thursday because it is going to be a tougher matchup.” PHS head coach Val Rodriguez was pleased with her team’s second half outburst. “We talked about some of the keys things we really want to do; we talked about end line crosses, you can get the corner off of it so it is the best of both worlds situation,” said Rodriguez, who got two goals apiece from seniors Taylor Lis and Serena DiBianco with sophomore Devon Lis, sophomore Colette Marciano, and senior Sasha Ryder adding one each and senior Gabrielle Deitch triggering the attack with three assists. “We were looking to see how we could attack on our corners a little better. I am very happy that we got corner goals today. We started right away in the second half. I said to them before the game, build that momentum and don’t let the train stop. Let the train roll.” Rodriguez credited her senior players with helping the team roll to the rout. “All of our seniors absolutely had a great game, they put together some great passes, great finishes, and great followup goals,” said Rodriguez. “That is just hard work and heart.”

In Rodriguez’s view, Bodden’s goal exemplified the team’s work ethic around goal. “That is the type of attitude, that is the type of leadership that we need during this tournament,” said Rodriguez. “They have had it all year; it just shows in spurts.” As PHS heads into its sectional quarterfinal clash at Monroe, Rodriguez is looking for her team to build on the effort against Sayreville. “We have got the belief behind us again, it is one game at a time,” said Rodriguez. “It is just play our game. We are certainly not looking to go in with a different mentality or a different structure. We keep to our system, we keep to our plan and stay disciplined on marking, stay disciplined on finishing. We have watched

games on film and it was like why are we only going to the left, why are we not switching the field, why are we not playing feet? We have got to do those things. You have to play with 11 people on the field, not six. That is the theme that has to continue for the tournament.” B odden, for her par t, wants her senior season to continue for a while. “It was scary thinking that this could be our last game and not knowing how they were going to play,” said Bodden, who will be playing at the next level as she has committed to The College of New Jersey and will be competing for its women’s soccer program. “I am really excited for Thursday; we need to come in with the same mentality and put it away soon and early.” —Bill Alden

David Cedeno could have given up on his junior season with the Princeton Day School boys’ soccer team when he injured his right knee earlier this fall. Cedeno was sidelined for nearly two months with a torn ligament but gamely returned to action in time to play for PDS in its Mercer County Tournament quarterfinal clash at Princeton High. “My first game back was against Pr inceton and I scored,” said Cedeno, whose tally was the lone score for the Panthers in a 2-1 defeat. “I wanted it for a while. I fight for these boys and they fought for me. It is all about unity.” Bouncing back from that setback, third-seeded PDS fought its way to the Prep B championship game, edging second-seeded Newark Academy 2-1 in the semifinals to earn a shot at topseeded Gill St. Bernard’s for the crown last Sunday. “We came in with a mindset that we are going to win

it,” said Cedeno. “We were going to fight and no matter what, we were going to keep our heads high. We deserve to be here. We fought throughout the whole season and we deserved to be in the final so we came in with a high spirit.” The Panthers produced a spirited effort against Gill. They fell behind 1-0 in the first half on a penalty kick but responded with several flurries, hitting the crossbar with one attempt. In the second half, the Knights extended their lead to 2-0 with 28:28 left in regulation. Less that two minutes later, PDS hit another crossbar and Cedeno helped convert the rebound into a goal as he fed sophomore midfielder C.J. Uche, who banged it home to make to a 2-1 game. “ We ke e p g e n e r a t i n g cha n ce s a n d e ve nt u a l ly one is going to go in,” said Cedeno. “I just thought get it back in there and get another chance. There was no need to sulk on what we missed. We have to keep trying and trying. In the end we did get the goal. It lifted our spirits very much.” Over the last few minutes of the contest, PDS kept the pressure on, dominating possession and generating four corner kicks down the stretch. “T hat’s what we were pushing for, we put three up top with Kevin Hagan, Connor Fletcher, and me,” said Cedeno.

“We said we are going to go for this game. We are not going to let it end like that.” While things didn’t end in PDS’s favor, Cedeno was proud of the squad’s effort and resolve. “We got to give it to them, they played a great game as well, it is not like it was a fluke or anything,” said Cedeno. “They played their game and we played our game. We just pushed and kept trying to score.” Over the last month of the season, PDS has lifted its game, going 7-2 in its last nine games leading into the title contest as the team has come together. “We have became a lot closer, it is like a family; we talk about that a lot,” said Cedeno. “We have become closer and in that sense we have become stronger as a team, both playing soccer and outside the field as well.” PDS head coach Malcolm Murphy sensed that his team was primed for a strong effort on Sunday. “I think we were well prepared for today and as the game showed, it was a pretty even game,” said Murphy. “It could have gone either way from start to finish. I thought the seniors led the way very well, they are taking a lot of pride in driving the team forward. They have done very well in the last three or four games.” That pride resulted in a show of resilience as PDS

kept pushing forward to the last whistle. “I thought today when it was 2-1 and we hit the bar, we were going to get the second opportunity,” lamented Murphy. “It is a matter of inches in this game and that crossbar is four inches and twice it hit that and it kept them in the lead. The last 10 minutes, we pursued the result with a lot of venom, and I was thinking we were going to snatch it back. But it was not to be, it was just the time running out. We were applying the pressure and we were getting opportunities. At the end of the day, that is what you live and die by, making sure they are going in.” Murphy credited Cedeno with helping PDS to generate opportunities down the stretch. “He gave us the options at the end there, we went to a 4-3-3 for the last 15 and it gave us a lot more movement up top,” said Murphy. “I think David played well, he is going to get better and better because he is a good player. Once he is completely over the injury, he will do well again.” Flashy sophomore Uche did very well against Gill, looking like the most dangerous player on the field for stretches. “C.J. wanted it bad, he was driving the midfield on,” said Murphy. “Sometimes it is hard to keep his discipline and keep his shape but he was giving us the advantage and getting the numbers attacking through the middle. He did very well.” In Murphy’s view, PDS

With Goalie Barbara Coming Up Big, PDS Girls’ Soccer Makes Prep B Finals After suffering a disappointing 3-0 loss to Notre Dame in the Mercer County Tournament semifinals, the Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team got another shot to make a title game as it hosted Wardlaw Hartridge in the state Prep B semis last Thursday. Bringing a 15-2-1 record into the contest, Grace Barbara and her PDS teammates were determined to make the most of the opportunity. “We came into Prep Bs feeling really good about our season but after our semifinal loss in the counties, we were really disappointed,” said sophomore goalie Barbara. “We couldn’t walk away from this momentous season without a trophy. We have a really good record right now and so we all knew this had to be a tournament win for us.” W hile t he teams were locked in a scoreless draw at halftime, the Panthers felt they could eventually break through.

“They were definitely putting pressure on us; our defense definitely held them off,” said Barbara. “We hit the post a couple of times, there is nothing you can do about that. It was keep working hard and putting them on frame.” Midway through the second half, PDS put one in the back of the net as sophomore Damali Simon-Ponte banged in a feed from freshman Madison McCaw. Barbara helped set the play in motion as she made a sprawling save and then booted the ball up the right sideline. “All I was thinking about was that we were completely open down the right side so the transition was what I was looking for,” recalled Barbara. “I wasn’t looking for that to turn into a goal but I am so glad it did. I played it to Izzy (Meyercord) and Izzy dribbled up the field; she played it to Maddie McCaw and it went up into the box and Damali put her foot on it.” The PDS defense held

the fort from there as the Panthers held on for a 1-0 win and their 12th shutout of the season. PDS, which improved to 16-2-1 with the victory, was slated to host No. 2 Montclair Kimberly on November 3 in the Prep B championship game. “We play as a team back there and ever yone only looks to the benefit of the team,” added Barbara, who made five saves in the win as the Panthers took a big step in its bid to repeat as Prep B champs. “We are not selfish back t here, ta k ing too many touches because they know when to get rid of it and they know when pressure is coming on. We have really good communication and the combination between us is great. We have great chemistry so it is a really good mix.” In Barbara’s view, the team has benefitted collectively from a nice mix of veterans and newcomers. “ We los t arou nd n i ne seniors last year and we brought in some really, really solid freshmen that have been coming off the bench and giving us great things, “ said Barbara. “It is great that we have that to fall back on, they have definitely been a huge asset for us.” Barbara is unquestionably a huge asset for the Panthers, having started from day one freshman year. “Growing as a player is all about experience because high school and club soccer are really different,” said Barbara. “You could play one formation in club soccer and you are really acclimated with your team but throughout high school soccer, the team is constantly changing. Over the years, you gain more experience. You gain physical attributes that will definitely help you. I think I have improved as a player.” —Bill Alden

Trampling Peddie in Key MAPL Showdown, Hun Football Rolls to 40-13 Win, Moves to 7-0 For the Hun School football team, the formula was simple as it looked to beat visiting Peddie last Saturday in a showdown for first place in the Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL). “We wanted to come out and set the tone by running the ball, just establishing that we were going to own t he line of scr immage,” said Hun head coach Todd Smith. Hun accomplished that goal, steamrollering through Peddie for three touchdowns in its first four possessions to build a 22-7 halftime lead. “We did a good job with that, the kids came out running the ball,” said Smith. “They were big, we were big but I think our big guys ow ned the trenches the majority of the game, right from the start. It opened up the play action pass for us later.” Hun built on that opening surge and pulled away to a 40-13 triumph, improving to 7-0 overall and 4-0 MAPL as Peddie fell to 5-2 overall and 3-1 MAPL. Pos t- g raduate r u n n ing back Imamu Mayfield took advantage of the line’s dominance, rushing for 160 yards and a touchdown and making two catches for 71 yards and another touchdown. “He is like an extra blocker and runner at the same time,” noted Smith, referring to the 5’9, 210-pound Mayfield. “If there is somebody not blocked, he usually does a good job of making them miss on his own. He gets his shoulder pads level down low; it is hard to tackle him. He just doesn’t go down on the first tackle. He had a fantastic day.” Once the Raiders got the running game going, they mixed in some sharp passing to further bedevil the Falcons. “We took our shots when we wanted, Simon (Vadas) was really accurate,” said Smith of his senior quarterback. “He was 7-for-8 for 163 yards and four TDs so it was a really impressive day on his end. He also did a great job of managing the game. We changed the play on the line of scrimmage around 85 percent of the time in the game and he did a good job of getting us in and out of the huddle and getting us where we needed to be.” As usual, the stingy Hun defense did a great job. “They were lights out, they played with a chip on their shoulder,” asserted Smith. “They really wanted to show that no matter who we played against they were a quality defense. They came out and they did a great job. I think we had close to 15 plays where we tackled the ball carrier behind the line of scrimmage. At the end of the day, they really didn’t gain that many yards in the game, less than 100 yards of total offense. Kyle Horihan had 18 tackles, nine solo and nine assists and Owen

Black played phenomenal; he had the scoop and score for a touchdown. He was all over the place, he had about 10 tackles as well.” The win over Peddie gave Hun at least a tie for the M A PL title as the Raiders clinched their second straight league crown. “I think it is definitely the byproduct of all the hard work we put in,” said Smith, reflecting on the title repeat in his second year at the helm of the program. “We are fortunate to get some really great players here at Hun but the bottom line is we just don’t rely on the natural talent. We truly want to coach the kids up, week in and week out and make them better football

players. We make sure that they have great character and integrity; that leads to hard work and that hard work pays off in the wins.” The Raiders will be looking for one last win this fall as they play at Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) on November 8 in their season finale, seeking a perfect campaign and the outright MAPL title. “We gave the kids a couple of days off and we will bring them back in on Wednesday,” said Smith. “We will get the kinks out; we will get back into the routine. Against Peddie we kept it pretty vanilla on offense. We just ran the ball and stayed in the two-back sets. We will get back to what we were doing pretty much ever y game before that, spreading it out and being a little more wide open.” —Bill Alden

Obituaries

MaryAnn Closterman MaryAnn Closterman, 87, formerly of Princeton died Wednesday October 28, 2015 at Stonebridge at Montgomery in Skillman. She was born May 20, 1928 in Newark, the daughter of the late Whitney Joseph Coleman and Sarah Thornley Coleman, and later moved to Clark Township, N.J. She graduated from Jonathan Dayton Regional High School in Springfield, N.J. in 1946 and embarked on a successful career as a legal secretary. She married Malcolm John Closterman in 1948 and they enjoyed setting up residences in Massachusetts and California as he made his way through the corporate ranks of Ernest & Ernest, RCA, and Gulf + Western. They settled in Princeton in 1960 and MaryAnn remained in their home after her husband’s death in 1992, until her relocation to Stonebridge earlier this year. She is survived by her daughter Elizabeth Anne and son-in-law Reid James Murray of Hopewell, and beloved granddaughter Charlotte of New York City. She also leaves a sister Sarah and brother-in-law Reginald Wayton of Linwood, N.J., as well as loving nieces and nephews. She will be truly missed and held dear in our memories.

MaryAnn is remembered and treasured for her commitment to family and community. In her daily life she dedicated herself to others. She made a difference to, and a lasting impression on, individuals and organizations. She served as a volunteer for Princeton Hospital (and all of its succeeding incarnations) for over 50 years. She delivered meals for Meals on Wheels until last year and greatly enjoyed visiting with the clients she served. She also devoted time to the Princeton Public Library and Recording for the Blind. MaryAnn was active for years in Princeton schools as her daughter, Elizabeth, progressed from Riverside, to Valley Road, to Stuart Country Day. She enjoyed traveling internationally and domestically and some of her favorite destinations were London, Edinburgh, Dublin, San Diego, Palm Beach, and Nantucket. She also enjoyed needlepoint, reading, and caring for her pets (all of whom were rescue animals). MaryAnn was a proud graduate of Rutgers University, receiving her BA with honors (in recognition of outstanding character and scholarship) in 1978. The family would like to thank her caregivers at Stonebridge. They helped to make this inevitably difficult journey gentler. A funeral mass will be celebrated at St. Paul Catholic Church, 214 Nassau Street, Princeton on Friday, November 6 at 10:45 a.m. followed by burial at Princeton Cemetery. Friends are invited to a gathering at the Kimble Funeral Home, 1 Hamilton Avenue, Princeton on Thursday, November 5 from 3 to 6 p.m. Memorial contributions in memory of MaryAnn Closterman can be made to PHCS Foundation, 3626 US Hwy 1, Princeton, NJ 08540 or online at www.princetonhcs.org/giving; or Meals on Wheels, 707 Alexander Rd.

Charles Coulston Gillispie Old Regime, and the Sarton in Carnegie Hall. She was Born in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on August 6, 1918, Charles Coulston Gillispie, the Dayton-Stockton Professor of History and professor emeritus of the history of science at Princeton University, was the son of Robert L Gillispie and Virginia L. Coulston. He grew up in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, was a member of the class of 1935 at the South Kent School in South Kent, Connecticut, and graduated from Wesleyan University in 1940 with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry. After graduation, he remained at Wesleyan for his master’s degree in history. From 1942 until 1946, Gillispie served with the Third Army in Europe in a heavy mortar battalion, reaching the rank of captain. Following the war, he returned to the study of history, joining Princeton University’s faculty in 1947 and earning a PhD in history from Harvard University in 1949. He married Emily Ramsdell Clapp in 1949, whom he met in the summer of 1938 when they were members of a student group that travelled to Britain and the Continent under the auspices of the Experiment in International Living. He is predeceased by his beloved wife and helpmate of 64 years, and by his younger brother, Robert L., Jr. Gillispie was a leading figure in the establishment of the history and philosophy of science as an academic discipline, having founded the Program in History of Science at Princeton in the 1960s. He is the author of many books that have become classics in the field, including Genesis and Geology: A Study in the Relations of Scientific Thought, Natural Theology, and Social Opinion in Great Britain, 1790-1850; The Edge of Objectivity: An Essay in the History of Scientific Ideas; and Pierre-Simon Laplace, 1749-1827: A Life in Exact Science. He was also the editor-in-chief of the Dictionary of Scientific Biography, a monumental reference work in 16 volumes with more than 4,500 essays on scientists and mathematicians of all periods and nationalities, for which he received the Dartmouth Medal from the American Library Association in 1981. His final work, Lazare and Sadi Carnot: A Scientific and Filial Relationship, a book of over 500 pages co-authored with Raffaele Pisano, was published last year. Gillispie’s many awards and distinctions include the 1997 Balzan Prize for History and Philosophy of Science for “the extraordinary contribution he has made to the history and philosophy of science by his intellectually vigorous and exacting works.” Gillispie received the Pfizer Prize in 1981 from the History of Science Society for his book, Science and Polity in France at the End of the

Gillispie was founding adviser for Princeton’s Sachs Scholarship, one of the University’s most prestigious fellowships awarded to two graduating seniors: one for two years of study at Oxford University’s Worcester College, and the second for one year of study or travel abroad on a program of the student’s own design. A service of remembrance will be held on November 13 at 2 p.m. in the Princeton University Chapel. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Princeton University’s Daniel M.

FIRST TIME BUYERS WILL BE DELIGHTED

RENOVATING? DON'T GET CAUGHT WITHOUT A PERMIT If you're planning to sell when spring rolls around – or if you're updating a home you recently moved into – you probably have a list of upgrades to make your home more livable and appealing, to buyers or to your own family. But before you start tearing down walls or replacing old plumbing or wiring, take heed: If you don't have the requisite permits, you can wind up being fined and, in some cases, undoing the work you've done. New Jersey towns, cities and townships require permits for all sorts of work – not just brand new construction, but additions and “alterations” as well. Upgrading electrical and plumbing lines and adding a new roof are examples of alterations – changes to an existing structure without adding new space. And you might be surprised by how many projects fall into that category. Before you spend hundreds or thousands outfitting your home with upgraded features, ask your building construction official if permits are required. The cost of the permit will be based on the scope of your project – but no matter how much it is, it's still far cheaper than having to tear out the work and start over again.
