Main Street Bistro & Bar Leaves Many Memories For Owners and Patrons When Main Street Bistro in the Princeton Shopping Center closes its doors some time this fall, it will leave many fond memories for its owners, employees, and thousands of patrons over the past 25 years. “I think we left a mark in Princeton,” said original owner Sue Simpkins. “And we had a good time doing it. We had a great Main Street family that stayed with us for many years.” Main Street started in Kingston in 1984 with a catering business, quickly expanded to take-out, then a coffee house, bakery, and lunch restaurant. “It was her brain child,” said Ms. Simpkins’ son John Marshall, who came on board in 1986. They opened Main Street Commissary in Rocky Hill in 1989 to house the catering division, and then looked forward to opening a restaurant in Palmer Square. But a Palmer Square lease agreement fell through and they had to look elsewhere. Mr. Marshall said he got the news on the July 4 weekend in 1991 that Great Tastes, a restaurant which had been in the shopping center, had suddenly packed up and left. In October 1991 Main Street opened the section where the bar is, then, in February 1992, they opened the bistro side. The next major development, delayed by the 2008 recession, was the Clocktower Cabana, which opened in 2010. “That space always looked like a bar to me,” Mr. Marshall commented. “Opening night was August 1 and it was 98 degrees, and my wife and I were the only people there,“ Mr. Marshall recalled. In April of 2016 Fenwick Hospitality Group (FHG) purchased the Main Street Restaurant Group, and last week Jim Nawn, owner of FHG announced that Main Street Bistro will close, probably this fall. “I was a customer and a fan of the bistro long before we purchased it,” Mr. Nawn said. “However, despite attempts to upgrade many aspects of the experience there — the menu, the energy, the wellworn space — we did not see an impact on guest counts and became less optimistic that it would attract new customers. As we approach the end of the lease, we have opted not to renew. Sadly, we have decided to close.” Continued on Page 12

School District Makes Offer for Westminster On the same day last March that Rider University announced it was putting Westminster Choir College and its Walnut Avenue campus up for sale, the Princeton Public Schools (PPS) made known its interest in acquiring the property. But a few weeks later, PPS appeared to put the idea on hold following protests from those intent on keeping the prestigious music college in place. Last week, PPS made an official offer for the property. In an email, Superintendent Steve Cochrane confirmed the offer. “The process with Rider University is a confidential one at this stage, but I can share that we have officially expressed our interest in acquiring the Westminster Choir College property,” he said. “That expression of interest was due to Rider by June 7. If Rider chooses to talk with

us further about our interest, that meeting would likely take place in July.” Rider has owned Westminster Choir College since 1991. Suffering from financial difficulties and declining enrollment, the Lawrence-based University announced the decision to sell Westminster this past spring. At the time, Rider President Gregory Dell’Omo said the goal was

to find another academic institution that would either keep Westminster in place or move the school to its own campus. But in a federal lawsuit filed on behalf of the Coalition to Save Westminster in Princeton, Inc., no such academic institutions are listed. The suit, which says Rider does not have the legal right to sell the Continued on Page 12

Princeton’s Affordable Housing Obligation Is Still Undecided as Talks Break Down This past April, the town of Princeton announced it had reached a “settlement in principle” with the Fair Share Housing Center regarding how many affordable units the town is obligated to provide through 2025. But negotiations appear to

have broken down. Fair Share Housing, which advocates for affordable housing in New Jersey, said in a statement last week that Princeton has “walked away” from the settlement. Continued on Page 7

SOARING MAJESTY: This bald eagle was photographed at Lake Carnegie, one of Princeton’s most open and natural spaces. The lake’s fish, open water, and surrounding trees attract numerous bird species, both seasonally and yearround. Bald eagles have been sighted regularly at the lake in recent years.

GIRL POWER: As part of their five days at appsForGirls computer camp, 21 middle school girls spent a day visiting the Tigerlabs innovation center on East Nassau Street and heard encouraging words about working in coding.

Students at Girls - Only Computer Camp Come Up With Apps by CheCkCreative out new produCts

Girls tend to get short shr if t when it comes to computer science. Just ask Grace Zhang, a Princeton High School rising junior who last week ran a new, five-day tech camp for mid-

dle school girls with an interest in coding. A r med w it h a $ 3,000 grant from the National Center for Women in Technology (NCWIT) AspireIT program, Grace put together a program designed to encourage young girls to pursue computer science. Twenty-one area tweens attended appsForGirls, developing apps in the high school’s computer lab, hearing talks from experts, visiting Princeton’s Tigerlabs innovation center, and, finally, presenting their own apps at a farewell ice cream party.

said. “So we are looking forward to examining the program in the future to reach as many girls as possible. We may hold multiple sessions next year for different age groups since the age range this year, fourth to eighth grade, was a bit big.” Both of Grace’s parents are computer scientists. But she wasn’t anxious to follow in their footsteps. Her parents are “pretty nerdy,” which made her look for something different, she said. “But the truth was, I actually had no idea what computer science was,” she said. “When I was registering for Continued on Next Page

It was all part of the enterprising Ms. Zhang’s effort to give girls an introduction to tech through app development — in a supportive environment. The results of www.princetonmagazinestore.com this first initiative were so positive that a second camp for next summer is already in the works. “When we started final projects on the third day, I really did not go in expecting much,” Grace said in an email. “For some of the girls, the camp was their first coding experience, and it was unreasonable to expect them to produce fullyfunctioning apps after two days of instruction. However, I was fortunately wrong. Although most of the groups had problems at one time or another with code not working, in the end all 10 final projects ran successfully due to hard work from everyone, which is huge.” Among the final products: “Pick up Poop,” teaching users to clean up after their pets; “Just Breathe,” helping people with social anxiety disorder; “Trendy Girl,” help with putting outfits together while encouraging self confidence,” and “Cupcake Go,” a coloring book of cupcakes. It cost $50 to attend the camp. Some scholarships were made available. Next year, Grace hopes to run two sessions to meet the demand. “More than 50 girls signed up this year, but unfortunately we didn’t have enough funding to accommodate all of them,” she

high school classes during eighth grade, there weren’t many elective options. So I was like, oh well, I guess I’ll give coding a try. I was really unconfident about my coding abilities my freshman year, but [teacher] Mrs. [Graciela] Elia was super engaging and passionate. In Java, she gave us some assignments that were pretty tough but also really cool, and I slowly worked at them till I got better and better. I just finished AP Computer Science as a sophomore and grew to love the moment you finally fix the bug you’ve been looking for forever and getting your program to work.” Last November, Grace applied for the NCWIT Aspiration Award for female high school students doing interesting things in technology. She won. “I was added to the Aspiration community, where tons of other girls just like me around the nation shared opportunities, resources, advice, work, and accomplishments,” she said. “So many girls had built robots, developed websites, created apps, and written algorithms that impacted others and saved lives. I was so humbled and inspired. It was then I started realizing that this was something I wanted to go into for the next 50 years of my life.” Wit h t h e h elp of h e r teacher Ms. Elia, Grace won a grant and started the camp. “I can’t imagine how I would have ended up if I hadn’t given coding a shot,” she said. “In middle school, I thought computer science was an intimidating realm for

boys that I had never been really exposed to before. Like many other girls, I was a perfectionist and scared of trying new things and possibly being bad at them. Going into computer science has opened so many doors for me, and I want to do the same for other girls.” —Anne Levin —Donald Gilpin

Home Accents Magazine Honors Farmhouse Store

The Farmhouse Store in Palmer Square has been named one of Home Accents Today’s 50 Retail Stars for 2017 by editors of the trade magazine for the home accents industry. The Retail Stars list, now in its 13th year, recognizes independent brick-and-mortar retailers of home accents — including furniture stores and interior design boutiques — that are creative in their merchandising, have a positive presence in their local communities, and are distinguishing themselves from the competition. T h e Fa r m h ou s e S tor e Princeton is owned by Kristin and Ron Menapace and is located at 34 Hulfish Street. “Home Accents Today’s 2017 Retail Stars represent some of the best independent home decor and home furnishings retailers in the country,” said Susan Dickenson, the magazine’s editor in chief. “They are meeting the challenges of an everchanging retail env ironment with innovation and fortitude, and are true role models for their marketing and merchandising strategies, customer service and community contributions.

This annual honor recognizes their skills, hard work and dedication, and should serve as a reminder to us all to support local businesses.” This year’s list was compiled and narrowed down by research analysts and Thomas Lester, Home Accents Today’s business editor. “Getting to share the stories behind these stores is one of the most satisfying parts of assembling this year’s Retail Stars list,” Lester said. “Each of these retailers truly represents the fabric of their respective communities and we’re glad to have the opportunity to give them the recognition they deserve.” Twenty-seven U.S. states are represented on t his year’s list and The Farmhouse Store Princeton is the only store honored in New Jersey. ———

Didi: “I wouldn’t mind seeing an H&M. Some really great breakfast places would be nice, too.” Laura: “I would love to see a Sephora in downtown Princeton.” —Didi Oosterbean, West Windsor and Laura Leijs, Princeton Junction

Jamie: “I was going to say Sephora, too. I’m with Laura.” Ray: “I’d love to see a Chick-fil-A right here in downtown Princeton. We have one in the Hamilton Marketplace, and it’s very popular. But you’re are not going to find that in this area, so Chick-fil-A would be great.” —Jamie Leijssen, Princeton Junction and Ray Mazzella, Hamilton

“I feel like there’s everything I need here. It’s a great town as is.” —Riley DeMoss, Princeton ’19, St. Charles, Ill., with Kathryn Heeg, Geneva Ill.

Casey: “I think that if Triumph does move to the old Post Office on Palmer Square, they’d really be able to do a lot with it. Their current location gets a little crowded and it’s a bit dark. Perhaps they’d be able to create some outdoor seating on Palmer Square as well. It’s a really cool building and perfect location. It would be great for the town.” Amy: “In Baltimore and D.C. they have a great public bike share program. I don’t know if that’s here, but I haven’t really seen it while visiting. I’ve noticed the parking has been really challenging here, and this seems like a great area to bike around. I think it would create an easy way for people to move around and would cut down on the traffic substantially.” —Casey Nitsch, Princeton Junction and Amy Berbert, Baltimore, Md.

“Looking Back and Moving Forward” is the theme for this year’s Joint Effort Safe Streets Program, which will focus on the historic role of the black church in the Witherspoon-Jackson (W-J) community and will include a rich array of events over a ten-day period, August 4-13. Sponsored by many Princeton businesses, community leaders, organizations, and citizens, the 2017 program will be held at different locations throughout the Witherspoon- Jackson community, which last year was designated as Princeton’s 20th historic district, and the surrounding area. Highlights will include an ecumenical service and salute to the black church; a time capsule ceremony; a critical issues discussion; awards ceremonies for area youth, elected officials, and community leaders; a golf long ball contest; an art and photography exhibit; a book signing and dialogue with Kathryn Watterson; a walking tour; a community concert; a basketball clinic and games; music and other entertainment; workout and conditioning sessions; and more. “We assemble events and activities that have meaning for the community,” said lead organizer John Bailey. This year’s celebration is the evolution of a program Mr. Bailey originally started more than a decade ago with W-J resident Shirley Satterfield. Principal organizers also include Leighton New-

lin, Lance Liverman, Mildred Trotman, Bob Hillier, and others. “ T h e black chu rch i n Princeton — including Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church, First Baptist Church of Princeton, Mt. Pisgah African Methodist Episcopal Church, and Morning Star Church of God in Christ — has a story of faith, leadership, history, and community service and is a treasure trove of events and personalities of the W-J community,” Mr. Bailey stated. The Joint Effort Princeton Ecumenical Service, to be held at the Miller Chapel of the Princeton Theological Seminary at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, August 6, will recall that story in words and music. Mr. Bailey, who now lives and works as a political consultant in Denver, has not lived in Princeton since 1975 but returns every summer to lead the Safe Streets Program. “I’ve been away a number of years, but I love this town,” he said. “The town was very good to me. I see the challenges that the community is going through. It’s important to give something back.” The time capsule ceremony, at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, August 12, will take place on Maclean Street at the Waxwood Apartments, which were formerly a segregated African American school, then served as a junior high school until 1966 when John Witherspoon Middle School was built. The capsule, a metal box,

will be buried and remain for 50 years, to be opened in 2067 by residents and future generations of W-J community residents and citizens of Princeton. Included in the time capsule will be items submitted by the four churches, as well as pictures and other items from African American families of Princeton. “A Sense of Where We Are and What’s to Come” will be the focus of the critical issues discussions at 1 p.m. on Saturday, August 5 in the Princeton Public Library. Experts, community leaders, educators, and other community residents will be panel leaders for the discussions on the education of black students in Princeton Public Schools, affordable housing, police-community relations, and “Princeton 2037: What Will Our Town Look Like in 20 Years?” The First Annual Joint Effort Pete Young Sr. Memorial Golf Long Ball Contest, starting at 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 5, will be a benefit fundraiser for the Education Outweighs Them All Foundation and other area community and youth programs. A youth basketball clinic is scheduled for Friday, August 11 from 9 a.m. to noon on the Community Park courts, and the Pete Young Sr. Memorial Safe Streets Basketball Games will take place all day on Sunday, August 13, also on the CP basketball courts. —Donald Gilpin

Affordable Housing continued from page one

“ We are d is app oi nte d that Princeton is attempting to find a way to build fewer homes that working families, seniors, and people with disabilities can afford, by refusing to proceed with the settlement we reached with them in principle two months ago,” the statement reads. “These homes are desperately needed. Despite our willingness to abide by the terms both sides had ag reed to, we w ill now have to resolve this matter through litigation.” The town, which has been in court on the matter for the past two years, responded to the statement via municipal administrator Marc D. Dashield. “The court case has recently concluded and we are awaiting the judge’s decision, as well as maintaining ongoing settlement discussions with the Fair Share Housing Center,” he wrote in a press release last week. “Princeton’s mayor and Council are united in their desire to achieve a resolution and resume the important business of planning for future affordable housing that strengthens the community’s diversity, sus-

tainability, and economy.” T h e i s s u e d ate s f rom March 2015, when the New Jersey Supreme Court found that the Council on Affordable Housing had failed to ensure that municipal affordable housing obligations throughout the state were set for the period from 1999 to 2025. Municipalities went to court to have their affordable housing obligations determined. Four months later, Princeton filed a declaratory judgment with the court saying the town would provide 445 units. Fair Share Housing had determined the town’s obligation to be 1,495, according to Mr. Dashield’s statement. The final estimate from the court experts was 501. One hundred twenty towns across the state have currently signed settlement agreements establishing obligations totaling more than 36,000 homes. According to Fair Share Housing’s executive director Kevin Walsh, Ewing, Hamilton, and Robbinsville reached pre-trial settlements, all of which are being implemented. In Ewing, the former General Motors site on Parkway Avenue is being redeveloped for affordable housing. Homes

built by such local nonprofits as HomeFront are building in Hamilton, and Robbinsville’s Town Center will have affordable options. Fair Share Housing also reports that Lawrence Township signed a settlement agreement establishing a 1,110-unit obligation. “That settlement provided for an innovative mix of development and redevelopment, including allowing for the redevelopment of some of the parking lots of Quakerbridge Mall and outmoded office parks in the Township, while preserving more rural areas of Lawrence,” the organization said in a statement. East Windsor has approved a settlement establishing an obligation for 736 units, which will include designating several sites in the township for inclusionary development. “The municipality has also agreed to support a 100-percent affordable development and new supportive housing for people with disabilities while providing a special focus on very-low income families and people with disabilities — two populations that have been hardest hit by New Jersey’s ongoing housing affordability crisis,” Mr. Walsh said. —Anne Levin

Princeton Progressive Action Group Expresses Concern About Lack of Middle Income Housing

To the Editor: We, members of the Princeton Progressive Action Group, in common with many other local residents, are alarmed at the increasingly pressing lack of housing that is available at middle income levels at Princeton. The municipality has begun taking steps to change zoning to reduce the size and control the look of new houses/additions. making more stringent setbacks, height and coverage requirements could possibly make houses smaller and better-fitting into the streetscape, but these changes alone have not and will not make them more affordable. We encourage the municipality to concentrate the next round of zoning changes on allowing and encouraging the “missing middle homes” described in the Progress report of the neighborhood Character Initiative and thus fulfilling the goal of our master Plan to encourage diversity in our housing stock. Below are three specific suggestions for short-term actions that are easy to implement, have low or no impact, and will make a substantial difference: 1. Allow “flats” or secondary units that could be rented out by the primary homeowner in the former Borough, similarly to the former Township. The income from these flats can help residents stay in their homes longer by offsetting rising taxes or providing money for property maintenance and improvement. 2. Allow residents to convert existing houses with “flats” to two-family dwellings/duplexes or to build new duplexes. This will not increase the size of houses over what is currently allowed, or increase density since two families are already allowed to occupy these properties. The only difference is that instead of a $1.3 million house with a potential

rental unit, there could be two separate units. Since the flat ordinance for larger lots requires one unit to be larger and one to be smaller, there will likely be a unit for sale at $950k and a smaller unit for $350k. We could finally get our desperately-needed homes for middle-income families and empty-nesters. 3. reduce parking requirements: Current zoning requires 1.5 cars per dwelling unit. This means 2 cars for a singlefamily residence and 3 cars for a house with a flat. Often flats are not feasible because the property cannot accommodate the additional parking. Eliminating the parking requirement for a unit that is designed to accommodate aging-in-place could be a win-win for all. In summary, we affirm that the neighborhood character we should protect comprises not just the buildings but the people who live in those buildings. We can start with these simple changes in the short term, while working on the long-term items of form-based zoning and neighborhood character guidelines.

Friends of the Princeton Public Library Sale Helped By PPL Staff, Volunteers, Community

To the Editor: The Friends of the Princeton Public Library held their Annual Book Sale June 23-24 and we were delighted to have so many book lovers from near and far join us on the first weekend of summer. The Book Sale is the culmination of months of work by dedicated volunteers, and depends on the generous donations of books from library supporters throughout the year. We would like to thank the wonderful staff at Princeton Public Library, who guided and supported us at every turn with knowledge, commitment, and enthusiasm. We are especially grateful to our friends in the buildings, publicity, and development departments. In addition, the Library Summer Teen Volunteers were a tremendous asset and helped us set up for the sale in record time. We would also like to acknowledge the generous support of our friends at Witherspoon Grill. The many volunteers who so graciously gave their time and shared their love of books made this event a pleasure for all, and we enjoyed the opportunity to work alongside such a devoted team. And last but not least, we are deeply appreciative of our generous Princeton community who once again came out to support our library.

Three months after its opening in dow ntow n Hopewell, Basilico Trattoria is going strong. In an area rich with Italian restaurants of all stripes, co-owners Kari LaSpisa and Joe Trani have aimed to carve out a niche for themselves as purveyors of authentic Neapolitan cuisine. “The concept we have here is fresh food, made to order, by an Italian chef,” Ms. LaSpisa explains, “not several people in the kitchen — like a line cook set-up — it’s one chef cooking your food for you, to order.” T hat one chef is Mr. Trani. Five nights a week, with only ten burners at his disposal, he takes on an ambitious culinary balancing act in the kitchen of their 46-seat restaurant — searing pork chops, boiling fresh potato gnocchi, assembling all manner of antipasti. The kitchen is so small that there’s no room for anyone else, but even if space were not a factor, Mr. Trani prefers the degree of control and consistency his situation affords him. “The hands are different,” he says. Even when closely following a recipe, any chef will cook with his own idiosyncrasies and to his own taste. At Basilico, diners get only his taste.

Mr. Trani was born in Princeton into a family of restaurateurs. When he was 6 years old, they moved back to Ischia, in the Bay of Naples, where he soaked up local traditions, and eventually at tended culinary school, worked in kitchens, and opened two restaurants. Ultimately, the beguiling siren song of the Garden State worked its charms on Mr. Trani and, after nearly three decades away, he returned to New Jersey. Basilico Trattoria is the third restaurant he and Ms. LaSpisa have opened together since then. The other two — Al Dente, in Hillsborough, and Taste, in Warren — they have since sold. Basilico features casual dining, with an emphasis on local ingredients. The main dining space is a single open room with a high, barrel-vaulted ceiling. Ample natural light filters in through the floor-to-ceiling windows lining the room’s length. In fair weather, there is also outdoor seating on the patio, adjacent to the two raised garden beds where Ms. LaSpisa and Mr. Trani grow some of their own herbs. Popular dishes include the grilled calamari, the bruschetta siciliana, the gnocchi fr ut ti di mare,

and the shrimp ravioli. In the future, Mr. Trani hopes to push customers beyond their usual Italian dining experiences with coniglio all’Ischitana: a cacciatorelike rabbit dish from his family’s native Ischia. But the couple’s ambition extends farther than additions to their menu. Buoyed by the positive response to Basilico Trattoria, they plan to open Basilico Paninoteca — a high-end Italian sandwich shop serving lunch — on Main Street in Pennington late this summer. Running a restaurant as they do, with a core staff of two, is far from easy. The cost of quality ingre- CROWD PLEASER: Bruschetta is a popular dish at Basilico Trattoria, located at 9 East Broad dients is high, and the work Street in Hopewell. is high-stress. Still, Ms. LaSpisa says she is happy with the result so far. “It feels good that we’re doing We now carry SOLAR WINDOW something no one else is FILM to protect your furniture. 908.359.8388 doing,” she says. 45 Spring St • Downtown Princeton • 924-2880 —Doug Wallack Route 206 • Belle Mead

BOOK REVIEW

“Gotta Light?” — “Twin Peaks” Meets “The Scarlet Letter” on Hawthorne’s Birthday … the minister, looking upward to the zenith, beheld there the appearance of an immense letter, — the letter A, — marked out in lines of dull red light. —Nathaniel Hawthorne, from The Scarlet Letter ike Nathaniel Hawthorne, who was born on July 4, 1804, David Lynch knows how to sear his brand into the brains of his audience. Some viewers are still trying to shake the surreal image of the thing that slithers into the first-kiss sanctity of sleeping innocence at the end of Episode 8 of Twin Peaks: The Return. Those of us who have survived the first eight weeks of this most unsettled and unsettling series were given a July 4 holiday break on Sunday. Who knows why? Maybe Lynch is allowing us a week off to ponder the feast of excesses in “Gotta Light?,” his latest serving of killer coffee and spiked cherry pie. Or maybe this is his subtle way of marking the birthday of his predecessor in the never-ending investigation of the American mystery. Probably some version of “gotta light?” was in play in the summer of 1851, when Hawthorne and Herman Melville were smoking cigars and talking through the night in the early days of the brief embattled friendship that changed the course of American literature. I can see it: the creator of Hester Prynne holding his stogie steady while the creator of Captain Ahab extends a flaming lucifer. Flash forward a hundred years and “gotta light?” is a cinematic staple leading to close-ups of faces lit by the flare of a match or the flame of a lighter, the tip of the cigarette glowing, the smoker exhaling the hazy essence of film noir. In Twin Peaks, however, “gotta light?” is the Open Sesame to annihilation, since the fireworks of Episode 8 are launched in the dawn hours of July 16, 1945, born of the mushroom cloud rising over White Sands New Mexico. “A Divine Mystery”? When Henry James proclaims Hawthorne “the most beautiful and most eminent representative” of American literature, “beautiful” refers both to his looks and his works, as can be seen in the portrait reproduced on the cover of Brenda Wineapple’s biography. The likeness was painted in May 1850, when Hawthorne was 46, two months after the publication of The Scarlet Letter. The face in the painting brings to mind D. H. Lawrence’s claim in Studies in Classic American Literature that Hawthorne “knew disagreeable things in his inner soul” and “was careful to send them out in disguise.” For Lawrence, the surface of American art disguises “the inner diabolism of the symbolic meaning. Otherwise it is all mere childishness.” According to Wineapple’s biography, Hawthorne’s wife Sophia saw “a sad sweetness” in the portrait that made her catch her breath: “No one has ever drawn or painted anything of Mr. Hawthorne comparable to this.” An unnamed source in the biography has Sophia admitting after her husband’s death: “I never dared gaze at him, even I, unless his lids were down. It seemed an invasion into a holy place. To the last he was in a measure to me a divine Mystery, for he was so to himself.” Setting the Town on Fire When Lawrence, in his jousting jesting confrontational style, refers to that “blue-eyed

darling Nathaniel,” he’s probably thinking of the Charles Osgood portrait painted ten years earlier from the same angle, in which the smiling 36-year-old author is all unshadowed sweetness — except Lawrence would say, “so fair and smooth-spoken, and the under-consciousness so devilish.” As it happens, the smiling man in the earlier portrait had already explored diabolism in tales like “Young Goodman Brown” (1835), “Rappaccini’s Daughter” (1844), and “The Hollow of the Three Hills,” which begins with reference to “those strange old times, when fantastic dreams and madmen’s reveries were realized

many people in 2017 ever gave a thought to James’s “beautiful” and “eminent” American author, I noticed that a film with the title of one of Hawthorne’s tales was playing at the Garden Theatre. It seems that in 2008 the novelist E.L. Doctorow had reimagined Hawthorne’s “Wakefield,” and that his extended, updated version has been adapted by Robin Swicord for a film starring Bryan Cranston. Presumably Cranston was drawn to the part because the double-life aspect of the story resonated with his career-defining role as a high school science teacher turned crystalmeth overlord.

among the actual circumstances of life.” Then there’s “The Devil in Manuscript” (1835), published under a pseudonym, wherein a young writer burns all his manuscripts, convinced that “the fiend” has infected the writing (“Oh! I have a horror of what was created in my own brain!”). After discovering that the sparks from his personal conflagration have “sent forth the fiend” by causing the whole community to catch fire, the writer is delighted: “Huzza! Huzza! my brain has set the town on fire!” According to Brian Harding’s introduction to Young Goodman Brown and Other Tales” (Oxford World Classics 1987), Hawthorne frequently spoke of how he’d burned his own manuscripts, his way of adding a darker edge to his legend. The Wakefield Factor Last week, even as I was asking myself how

What Hawthorne calls Wakefield’s “unprecedented fate” is to leave his wife and family behind, moving into a house on a nearby street, disguising himself, and then returning 20 years later. In her biography, Wineapple suggests that Hawthorne is “relishing an ordinary man’s extraordinary caprice.” As if to distance himself from any identification with the character, Hawthorne sets the story in London and keeps Wakefield at arm’s length (calling hin “a crafty nincompoop” and his scheme “a long whimwham”). The notion of total withdrawal from the “business of life” had always intrigued him, as he confesses in a letter quoted by Brian Harding: “By some witchcraft or other — for I really cannot assign any reasonable why and wherefore — I have been carried apart from the main current of life, and find it impossible to get back again.”

Going to Extremes On a day of sun and shadow, wind and rain, I read my way into the heart of The Scarlet Letter, feeling something like awe for the character of Hester Prynne; the force and scope of Hawthorne’s creation; the meeting in the woods when she saves the minister’s soul, casts off the letter A and unbinds her hair, “dark and rich, with at once a shadow and a light in its abundance.” In the same passage you have the Shakespearean glory of wild little Pearl, the product of their sinful union, the elf-child, the sprite. It was Henry James’s description of a particular scene in The Scarlet Letter that sent me back to the novel. As much as he admires the book, James thinks “the symbolism” is overdone. He cites the otherwise “masterly episode” in which “Mr Dimmesdale, in the stillness of the night, in the middle of the sleeping town, feels impelled to go and stand upon the scaffold where his mistress had formerly enacted her dreadful penance.” As the minister, Hester, and Pearl stand there together, “a light gleamed far and wide over all the muffled sky. It was doubtless caused by one of those meteors which the night-watcher may so often observe burning out to waste in the vacant regions of the atmosphere. So powerful was its radiance that it thoroughly illuminated the dense medium of cloud, betwixt the sky and earth. The great vault brightened, like the dome of an immense lamp.” What troubles James is that “almost immediately afterwards” Hawthorne has the minister beholding an immense letter A in the sky “marked out in lines of dull red light.” It’s here, he claims, that Hawthorne “is in danger of crossing the line that separates the sublime from its intimate neighbour,” which tempts the thought “that this is not moral tragedy, but physical comedy.” James neglects to mention, however, that Hawthorne prefaces the vision with a long paragraph about “revelations from a supernatural source” and then says straight out, “We impute it, therefore, solely to the disease in his own eye and heart” that the minister beheld it. Taking Liberties All that celestial excitement brings me back to Episode 8 of Twin Peaks, a series that rarely fails to cross the line between the ridiculous and the sublime, moral tragedy, physical comedy, and sheer mayhem. If he were filming The Scarlet Letter, David Lynch wouldn’t hesitate to put a giant letter A in the sky over his creation (in a recent episode we saw the flame of a child’s soul shooting heavenward), and he might do the same with the face of Hester Prynne, as he does, in effect, when we see Laura Palmer’s face in the golden sphere spinning free of the cosmic eruption set off by the White Sands nuclear mushroom. hile it was the convergence of Twin Peaks and Hawthorne’s July 4 birthday that reminded me of the connection, Lynch hints as much back in the first season when Audrey Horne passes as Hester Prynne during her fling as a prostitute at One Eyed Jacks. —Stuart Mitchner

Library Live at Labyrinth Hosts Reading by Akhil Sharma

Akhil Sharma L ibr ar y L ive at L aby rinth will host Akhil Sharma reading from his new book, A Life of Adventure and Delight (W.W. Norton $24.95) at Labyrinth Books on Wednesday, July 12 at 6 p.m. Hailed as a stor y teller whose fiction is “a glowing work of art” (Wall Street Journal), Akhil Sharma is possessed of a narrative voice “as hypnotic as those found in the pages of Dostoyevsky” (The Nation). A Life of Adventure and Delight contains eight stories that focus on Indian protagonists at home and abroad. Labyrinth Books and the Princeton Public Librar y have joined forces to host a reading and conversation with the author. A young woman in an arranged marriage awakens one day surprised to find herself in love w ith her

husband. A retired divorcée tries to become the perfect partner by reading women’s magazines. A man’s longstanding contempt for his cousin suddenly shifts inward when he witnesses his cousin caring for a sick woman. Says David Sedaris, “There’s a great duality to these stories: simple but complex, funny enough to laugh out loud at but emotionally devastating, foreign yet familiar. What an exciting and original writer this is, and what a knockout collection.” Akhil Sharma is the author of Family Life, a New York Times Best Book of the Year and the winner of the International DUBLIN Literary Award and the Folio Prize. His writing has appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Best American Short Stories, and O. Henry Award Stories. A native of Delhi, he lives in New York City and teaches English at Rutgers University–Newark. ———

Main Street Bistro continued from page one

There is a plan to retain staff by placing them in the group’s other restaurants, and, according to a press release, FHG remains committed to Main Street Catering and Events, which continues to be a thriving business. FHG also announced that it has signed a lease at 277 Witherspoon Street to create a new 5,000-squarefoot restaurant called Two Sevens in the rebuilt former medical professional build-

ing next to the Avalon apartment complex. FHG will also be opening the Cargot brasserie later this month next to the Dinky Bar and Kitchen in the new Arts and Transit neighborhood. As Mr. Marshall reflected back on his ownership of the Main Street Bistro, he noted, “We had something for everyone. We always felt we were delivering food for food’s sake. We didn’t want to be just a special occasion place. We did an excellent job of doing what we intended to do.”

But he added that it was time to pass the baton. “Main Street was too big to be a small business but too small to be a big business,” he said. “The opportunities are still there, but it was time to move ahead.” Ms. Simpkins, who has retired and now lives in Point Pleasant, concluded, “We miss it. We made good friends through the business, and I don’t regret a minute of it.” —Donald Gilpin

choir college, cites several real estate developers as among those who have expressed interest in the sale. Asked Monday about the prospect of PPS taking over the property, the Coalition’s attorney Bruce Afran said that it was unacceptable. “It is, frankly, incredible to think that the board of education of Princeton, of all places, would participate in the destruction of such an institution of higher education,” he said. “It really is a shameful thing that our school district would seek to join in the dismemberment of a college, one that is actually older than our public school district.” While plans for what the school district would do with the property are not public, it has been suggested that some buildings might be kept in place for Westminster’s continued use. “I don’t know what they’re planning, but you can’t just take a college and say we’ll give you two buildings and you can continue to operate there,” Mr. Afran said. “It would destroy Westminster Choir College. The district wants to get more buildings, but that can’t come about at the expense of this college. If it continues this way, the board of education will simply be drawn into litigation.” —Anne Levin

Hunterdon Land Trust History Day on July 9

Celebrate local history at the Hunterdon Land Trust (HLT) Farmers’ Market on Sunday, July 9 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Dvoor Farm, 111 Mine Street in Raritan Township. HLT’s Histor y Day will feature tours, a presentation about life in Hunterdon County in the 1870s, and a visit by several local historical organizations. The event begins w ith a tour of the barns on the Dvoor Farm at 9:30 a.m. with Chris Pickell, the principal architect at Pickell Architecture in Flemington. He will lead a walking tour and discuss the farm’s bank barn, north and east barns, horse barn (with the iconic Dvoor Bros. advertisement painted on the roof) and wagon house. Pickell specializes in upgrading antique buildings, historic design, and timber and stone barns. He’s also a trustee of the Hunterdon County Historical Society. At 10:30 a.m., John Allen shares the findings of his research using the 1870 Federal Census alongside the 1873 Beers map to create a fascinating snapshot of a late 19th century farming community in Hunterdon County. Using East Amwell Township as a model, Allen discusses the lives of rich and poor farmers and farm laborers, telling several fascinating stories along the way. The presentation, which includes maps and intriguing images, also covers such topics as the 1872 equine influenza epidemic and population trends in the county. At 11:30 a.m., tour the historic stone farm house with Dave Harding, HLT’s director of outreach. He’ll take you through 279 years of local history, covering Johan Philip Case’s arrival to the Flemington area, his friendship with the Delaware Chief Tuccamirgan, to the preservation of the Dvoor Farm in 1999. Visitors can check out

the 18th-century graffiti in the attic and learn about the 1803 murder in the basement. Harding serves on the board of trustees of the Hunterdon County Historical Society and is a member of the East Amwell Historical Society. Also participating in the house tour is Ariel Dvoor Hylton, who created a podcast of a self-guided walking tour of the Dvoor farm and house for her Girl Scout Gold Award. The tour will be available from HLT’s website and YouTube channel. Hylton is the great-granddaughter of Jacob Dvoor, who purchased the property in 1920 and ran a stock farm until his death in 1972. Jacob’s son, Herb Dvoor, continued to run the family cattle business well into the 1990s. All events are free, and no registration is required. ———

BONNIE AND CLYDE: Mary Pomykacz and Noah Barson star as Bonnie and Clyde in the Washington Crossing Open Air Theatre’s latest production, set to run July 7 through July 16 with performances on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7:30 p.m. “Bonnie and Clyde” is sponsored in part by the Trenton Thunder baseball team.

“Bonnie and Clyde” At Open Air Theatre

At the height of the Great Depression, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow went from two small-town nobodies in West Texas to America’s most renowned folk heroes and Texas law enforcement’s worst nightmares. Bonnie and Clyde is an electrifying musical story of love, adventure, and crime that takes to the Open Air Theatre stage from July 7 through July 16 with performances on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7:30 p.m. The production is sponsored in part by the Trenton Thunder baseball team. With music by Frank Wildhorn, of Jekyll and Hyde fame, lyrics by Don Black and book by Ivan Menchell, the musical score is described by composer Wildhorn as “nontraditional, combining rockabilly, blues, and gospel.” When Bonnie and Clyde meet, their mutual cravings for excitement and fame immediately set them on a mission to chase their dreams. Their bold and reckless behavior turns the young lovers’ thrilling adventure into a downward spiral, putting themselves and their loved ones in trouble with the law. Forced to stay on the run, the lovers resort to robbery and murder to survive. As the infamous duo’s fame grows bigger, their inevitable end draws nearer.

In the leading roles are Mary Pomykacz as Bonnie and Noah Barson as Clyde. Both have been involved with the Downtown Performing Arts Center for years and performed in numerous productions at the Open Air Theatre. This production is directed by Jordan Brennan, co-artistic director of the outdoor venue. For complete information about the 2017 Summer Season of mainstage shows, directions, and more, visit the website at www.downtownpac.com. The Washington Crossing Open Air Theatre is located inside Washington Crossing State Park at 455 Washington Crossing-Pennington Road in Titusville. Box office phone is (267) 885-9857. ———

the distance. The fighting is in sharp contrast to the serenity of the campus where we see Amy (Oona Laurence) foraging in the forest for wild mushrooms. She stumbles upon a wounded Union soldier who is hiding in the woods. Corporal John McBurney (Colin Farrell) had been wounded by a bullet in his leg. Instinctively, Amy brings him back to the school where she is criticized by an older classmate (Angourie Rice) for rescuing a “dangerous enemy.” After telling John that “You are a most unwelcome visitor,” the ordinarily icy headmistress inexplicably allows the wounded soldier to remain on the premises and does not inform the Confederate army of his presence. Martha takes charge of nursing their guest back to health, and soon finds herself developing feelings for John. However, the corporal proves to be quite the Casanova, knowing just the right words to charm each of the females at the school in turn. Of course, eventually everyone finds out about his duplicity, and the spell is broken. And after the heartbroken women decided what to do, the corporal probably wished that he had surrendered to the Rebels. Excellent (HHHH). Rated R for sexuality. Running time: 93 minutes.

he Beguiled is a Civil War story based on the bestseller of the same name by the late novelist/playwright Thomas Cullinan (1919-1995). The book was first adapted to the screen in 1971 as a melodramatic film that starred Clint Eastwood. This year’s remake was directed by Sofia Coppola whose effort was rewarded at Cannes when she became the second woman in the history of the festival to be chosen Best Director. The story is set in 1864 at a Virginia boarding school for girls run by Martha Farnsworth (Nicole Kidman) with the help of Edwina Dabney (Kirsten Dunst). They have five students under their care, ranging from preteens to the late teens. As the movie opens, the sounds of battle are heard in

Many Makes and Models — Even Tractors — Are Available From Area’s Automobile Dealers

ummer is here for sure, and what better time to zip down the open road in a new convertible, mini van, SUV, or special sedan? Whether it’s a brand new model just off the assembly line or a carefully-tended, preowned choice, area dealers have a full range of vehicles in all styles, sizes, colors, and price ranges. Perhaps a Mercedes-Benz is in your future. Have you always wished to have one of these high-end expertly designed and manufactured automobiles in your driveway? Now you can! Mercedes-Benz of Princeton offers a complete selection of new and previously-owned choices. Located on Route One in Lawrenceville, this family-owned and operated exclusive Mercedes dealership opened in 1982. Providing clients with quality customer service in all areas, including sales, service, and customer relations, has been a priority from the beginning, notes Owner and President Bob Greces. “The person we sold our very first Mercedes-Benz to is still a customer today,” said Mr. Greces. “The degree of repeat business has been tremendous. In some cases, we have sold to the children, even grand-children, of original customers, representing three generations of owners. I am very grateful for this loyalty.” Exceptional Service “We have earned a strong reputation for exceptional service, value, and competitive pricing, which has led to

a very high level of customer loyalty,” continues Mr. Greces. “We are very proud of our relationship with our customers. It is very meaningful for me to have earned their trust.” After three decades in business, Mercedes-Benz of Princeton has sold more than 30,000 new and pre-owned vehicles, and has received numerous awards from Mercedes-Benz. In addition, reports Mercedes-Benz of Princeton Marketing Manager Joseph F. Hobbs, Jr., “We have again earned the Edmunds.com Five Star Dealer Award for meeting the needs and providing excellent service to today’s car shoppers. We are proud to have received this honor four years in a row. Also, the GLC, our hottest SUV model, won the Motor Trend SUV of the Year for 2017.” Today’s drivers are interested in the latest technology, he adds, and Mercedes-Benz offers the most up-to-date high tech features, including safety options, whether in lane detection, rear view cameras, impending collision sensing, radar sensors, etc. Mr. Hobbs notes that the Mercedes EClass includes the most technological advances. In another aspect of the business, Mercedes-Benz of Princeton is now a MercedesBenz commercial van dealer, says Mr. Hobbs. “We have a large inventory of Sprinter and Metris vans, and we also have the ability to build these vans to your specs.” Pre-owned vehicles are a large part of the business,

he adds. “Our pre-owned department is well-stocked with low-mileage, one-owner Mercedes-Benz certified vehicles. Most of them are lease returns from our own customers, and in most cases, we have sold these vehicles new and serviced them throughout their previous ownership.” Tip-top Condition The dealership’s service department is outstanding, continued Mr. Hobbs. With 25 bays and MBUSA-trained technicians, keeping customers’ cars in tip-top condition is a high priority. Also, he notes, “We comprise one of the most competitive lease and purchase options available for customers.” Mercedes-Benz of Princeton’s longevity is appropriate to Mercedes-Benz’s long history and tradition, points out Mr. Hobbs, referring to the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft’s Mercedes and Karl Benz’s 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen, widely reported to be the first gasoline-powered automobile. Henry Ford’s famous Model T was not introduced until 1908! Indeed, Mercedes-Benz of Princeton is proud of its history of growth and customer satisfaction, and Mr. Greces is grateful for the company’s success. He has worked hard to give back to the community, which has included contributing to charitable organizations, such as Birdies for the Brave, benefiting wounded veterans and families of deceased veterans; also Big Brothers Big Sisters, the Trenton Area

a vehicle. It’s experience. “We must give the consumer a fun, transparent experience to differentiate ourselves from the competition, and then, in addition, provide a great service experience for many years to come.” Faithful Clients An unexpected new addition has materialized at Belle Mead Garage on Route 206 in Belle Mead. In addition to its inventory of pre-owned vehicles, rentals, as well as its service department, this longstanding automobile company, and former Chrysler dealership, now offers a complete selection of Massey Ferguson tractors. A family-owned business since 1927, Belle Mead Garage has a long history of quality products and superb customer service. “The folks at Belle Mead Garage are outstanding people,” says a longtime customer from Princeton. Their word is their bond, and their dealings are honorable throughout.” It’s common to hear such remarks among the faithful clients of this 90-year-old family business. Father and son owners Roy (“Murph”) and Christopher (“Kip”) Higgins understand the bond between people and their automobiles. And now, a new partner, Chris Carnevale, has joined the team, coming on board in January. Originally from New Jersey, Mr. Carnevale had been working in the automobile industry in the midwest. He also has experience in the tractor business, and sees its potential sales possibilities in New Jersey.

A longtime friend of the Higgins, he contacted them when he returned to his home state, and suggested adding tractors to the Belle Mead Garage as a supplement to the car business. “More tractors are sold today in New Jersey than were sold in the state 30 years ago,” he explains. “Our forecast was to sell 25 tractors the first year. As it turned out, we sold 45 in the first five months! If this continues to progress, it will be a very big part of the business. Also, often, a lot of people come in for a tractor, and then get a car and vice versa.” Tractors are being sold to a variety of customers, he adds. Homeowners with large properties, those with horse farms, and small farmers can all use tractors. They are available in so many styles and sizes, there can be one for almost any need and for any season. Multi-taskers, they can be utilized for landscaping, reshaping driveways, tending pastures, shredding, rotary tilling, clearing snow, and more. Swiss Army Knife “Our best seller is the GC 1710,” says Mr. Carnevale. “It’s like a Swiss Army knife, it can do so much. It’s just so versatile, and it can easily get into small spaces.” Customers, including women, are all ages and backgrounds, he adds, and a new customer recently came by to trade in a motorcycle for a tractor. The tractors typically last 20 years, and cover a wide price range, from $7,500 to $140,000. Belle Mead generally sells many in the $15,000 range, and it is the only Massey Ferguson dealer in New Jersey. Many customers

are pleased to find that the tractors come in only one color — red! If a tractor is not in your current plans, however, Belle Mead can supply you with a variety of automobiles — from convertibles to vans to SUVs, Jeeps, and trucks. The selection of pre-owned vehicles includes all makes and models, with Hondas, Jeeps, and SUVs especially in demand right now, reports Kip Higgins. “We tend to have cars with higher mileage, and they are popular, he adds. “We also have some with lower mileage, and then, customers like to have the latest technology. The more high tech, the better! They especially like plug-ins for their phones and other apps. The newer cars also have safety features like lane detectors and back-up cameras.” Belle Mead’s pre-owned vehicles are carefully tested, he adds. “We do a full test on the car. If it’s almost new, there can still be a factory warranty left on it.” Belle Mead also has a complete service department ( ever y thing except body work) which services all cars, whether or not they have been purchased at Belle Mead. The rental business includes mini vans, SUVs, and sedans. “Service is our specialty,” notes Mr. Higgins. “We have different generation customers from the same family who appreciate our personal attention, which includes service reminders and free loaner cars, when needed. We have stayed small so that we can do everything ourselves, and our customers know they can depend on us.” —Jean Stratton

Princeton Ballet School, the official school of American Repertory Ballet, New Jersey’s premier profes sional ballet company, has opened its doors to students from across the country and the world this past week for its renowned Summer Intensive. After conducting an

international audition tour, select students, from as far as England and Italy, were invited to attend the fiveweek program where they would have the opportunity to train with the artistic staff of Princeton Ballet School and American Reper tor y Ballet.

school’s director, Pamela Levy, and the artistic director of the company, Douglas Martin. Over the course of the next five weeks, students will be able to expand their vocabulary and skill in the technique of ballet, character, jazz, modern, and musical theater. Students are able to grasp these concepts

not only from the instruction of the artistic staff of Princeton Ballet School but also by the impressive list of guest teachers who will be sharing their knowledge with students. The students are eager to learn and are already getting excited to begin rehearsals next week. Not only will the students be challenged

in technique classes, they will also have the chance to rehearse and close the program with a performance of new and classical works. T he culminating per formance of Princeton Ballet School’s Summer Intensive, An Evening of Dance, will take place on July, 28, 2017, at 6:30 p.m. at the Berlind Theatre in the McCarter Theatre Center; tickets ($27 in advance and $30 at the door) go on sale Monday, July 17 at arballet.org.

Latin American Band Holocaust Survivor Stars Sotomayor in Trenton Sotomayor is the Latin In New Documentary American electronic music

On Thursday, July 6 at 7 p.m., the Lawrence Headquarters Branch of the Mercer County Library System will show the documentary Fascination: Helena’s Story followed by a discussion with filmmaker Karen Goldfarb. In the film, Holocaust survivor Helena Weinrauch proclaims the resilience of the human spirit saying, “I survived by sheer willpower. I was beaten. I was tortured. I was starved. The will to live — no matter how difficult the instances were, the circumstances — I did not give up.” Ms. Weinrauch, who grew up in Drohobycz, Poland, survived three concentration camps and endured the 500-mile death march from Auschwitz to Bergen Belsen. Miraculously, her life was saved at the last second twice as she stood before two firing squads. A few years ago, at the age of 88, Ms. Weinrauch decided that she wanted to pursue a lifelong dream of becoming a ballroom danc-

project of siblings Raul and Paulina Sotomayor who fuse together a collection of Andean rhythms, cumbia and Peruvian “chichi,” and cutting edge beats. Hailing from Mexico City, the duo will take the stage at Mill Hill Park in Trenton on Thursday, July 6 at 5 p.m. as part of the Levitt AMP Trenton Music Series. This is a free concert. Guests are invited to bring blankets and lawn chairs. Free parking will be offered by the Trenton Parking Authority in the Liberty Commons Parking Garage located on East Front Street. Information on schedules, parking, guidelines, and directions can be found at www.levittamp.org/Trenton. The Levitt AMP Trenton Music Series will continue through August 31. Future performers include Jeff Bradshaw (July 13), Lawrence (July 20 ), Viva La Hop (July 27), The Steppin Stones, Bad Rabbits, Big Mean Sound Machine, The Weeklings, and New Jersey Capital Philharmonic Orchestra.

he new Santé Integrative Pharmacy at 200 Nassau Street has created a stir of interest among increasing numbers of curious customers. While many people are familiar with the integrative concept, it is a new idea for many others.

IT’S NEW To Us

“The idea of an integrative pharmacy began about 10 years ago,” explains JoAnn Issenman, owner with Barry Perzow and pharmacist Chris Castagna. “It offers choices of different modalities, including traditional, homeopathic, and herbal solutions. We are a full-service prescription and compounding pharmacy, offering traditional and natural healthy living solutions.” Opened in May at the former location of the Morris Maple paint store, this unique pharmacy also features a staff of experts in varied fields, points out Ms. Issenman. “We have herbalists, wellness exper ts, nutritionists, naturopaths, homeopaths, and skincare specialists all working together to help you make informed decisions about your health. It is very unusual to have a staff who are experts in so many different fields. “We also offer carefullyedited skincare, herbal, homeopathic formulas, vitamins, supplements, natural foods, and products for the home that are perfect for today’s proactive healthcare consumer.” Drug Interaction A New Jersey native, Ms. Issenman adds that she and Mr. Perzow also have longtime previous experience in the natural food industry and integrative pharmacies in Colorado and Vancouver, Canada. I n a d d it i on to S a nté, pharmacist Chris Castagna owns the Pennington Apothecary in Pennington and the Quakerbridge Pharmacy in Hamilton, both traditional pharmacies. “I can advise people on medicines and the interaction of drugs and also medication and supplement interaction,” he explains. “We are also fully contracted with Medicare Part D and the insurance companies. Clients’ co-pays will be the same. “We differentiate ourselves with the selection of prod-

ucts and our staff. We have a great group of professionals, and we look forward to a lot of years here. Come and see what we have to offer.” The wide range of products at Santé includes traditional choices as well as a large selection of natural items. The conveniently arranged categories include pharmacy, compounding, otc, wellness area, health and skincare, natural vitamins, mom and baby, skincare and cosmetics, health, food and beverages, aroma therapy, nailcare, suncare, and so on. Chemical- and Cruelty-Free The natural products offered are chemical- and cruelty-free, reports Ms. Issenman. Also available is a selection of detox cleanses, probiotics, protein food products, and such items as yoga mats, non-toxic chemical-free household detergents, herbal teas, soap, organic cotton products, assorted nutritional supplements, energy drinks, etc. The Beauty Bar section offers various moisturizers, chemical- and cruelty-free cosmetics, including the very popular Dr. Hauschka line. “We also offer CBD, a non-toxic cannabinoid product from hemp,” notes Ms. Issenman. “It is available in topical and oral forms, and can be a helpful remedy for arthritis and other conditions, including digestive problems.” M s. I s s e n m a n i s ve r y pleased about the enthusi-

astic response of Princeton residents to Santé. “Princeton feels exactly right. It feels like home, and we are very happy to be here. Santé means health in French, and we have heard that there are 800 French-speaking families in Princeton. Also, the integrative concept is well-known in Europe, and there are a lot of Europeans in Princeton. It’s a very international community. Interestingly, in both Europe

and America, the pharmacist is the most trusted professional.” Ms. Issenman and the other owners are proud to bring their unique concept to Princeton, and look forward to introducing their wide range of products and pharmacy service to many more people.

HEALTHY CHOICES: “We spent a lot of time looking for the right place, and we felt at home in Princeton. There is diversity here, and well-educated people, who are intelligent about self-care.

After Taking 6th in NCAAs in PU Track Finale, Ratcliffe Aiming to Continue International Career

ulia Ratcliffe took a hiatus from her Princeton University track career, heading to her native New Zealand for a year to train for a shot at the 2016 Summer Olympics. While Ratcliffe won the New Zealand championship, she fell just short of the Olympic qualifying standard of 71 meters, or 232’11, missing out on a trip to Rio de Janeiro. “It was pretty tough at the time,” said Ratcliffe, noting that she was 23 centimeters, or nine inches away, from hitting the standard. “At the end of all the competition of summer with the deadlines and the qualifying, I was really ready for a break. I was mentally burned out.” By last September, Ratcliffe was ready to return for her senior year at Princeton. “It was so much fun coming back,” said Ratcliffe, who hails from Hamilton, New Zealand. “Some of my classmates had graduated so I thought it would be hard coming back and being on the team and making the transition.” But Ratcliffe made a smooth transition back to the world of college track, picking up where she left off as the dominant woman hammer thrower in Princeton history. She started her senior season by winning the weight throw at the Ivy League Indoor Heptagonal Championships. This spring, she won the hammer throw at the Penn Relays, becoming the only hammer thrower in the 123-year history of the storied competition to win the event four times. Ratcliffe took first in the hammer throw at the Outdoor Heps, making her the only thrower in Ivy history to win four hammer throw titles. Ending her Princeton career in style, Ratcliffe finished sixth at the NCAA Championships last month with a throw of 214’1 to earn first-team All-America honors. She is the first Tiger in program history to earn three first-team All-America honors in the same event during her career. Ratcliffe was 11th as a freshman, the national champion as a sophomore, and the national runner-up as a junior. While Ratcliffe hoped to throw farther this spring, she was glad to keep piling up the wins. “The distance results have not been that great,” said Ratcliffe, noting that two meets this spring took place in pouring rain and freezing cold. “The placings are

still there so I maintained those wins throughout the season.” Getting a win at her final Ivy championship meet was a big highlight for Ratcliffe. “The Heps was probably my favorite meet of the season just because I go in with the mentality that the throw is for the team,” said Ratcliffe. “It is getting the win for the team and the rest of it. I had a great throw there.” Coming into the NCAAs, Ratcliffe knew she was facing a big challenge in Arizona State’s Maggie Ewen, who uncorked a throw of 240’7 to win the competition. “I really hadn’t had any competition this season,” said Ratcliffe, who graduated from Princeton with the school and Ivy League record of 70.28 m. (230’7) and is the New Zealand national record holder with a 70.75 m. (232’1.50). “I was excited to see what I can do, coming in knowing that there is big fish coming out there.” In reflecting on her Princeton career, Ratcliffe views her success as a product of doing her best for the team. “I have loved my time here,” said Ratcliffe, who was one of 10 finalists for the 2017 C. Otto von Kienbusch Award given to Princeton’s top senior female athlete. “If you are competing for yourself, it is hard to motivate yourself but as soon as you are competing for your country or your school, it is like you are competing for somebody else. I have always felt that like I can go out there wearing the ‘P’ on my chest and really just give everything.” Having come so far for college, Ratcliffe has certainly gotten a lot in return. “You get so many opportunities here that universities in New Zealand don’t afford you,” said Ratcliffe, an economics major and Academic All-Ivy honoree who is interested in pursuing graduate work after she moves on from track. “It is lot harder to get in but I feel these great opportunities are given to anybody who is willing to go out and look for them. I felt that was really incredible. I have certainly been humbled by my classmates and teammates. I am surrounded by people I am constantly inspired by because the students and the athletes you come across at

Princeton are just insane.” Looking ahead, Ratcliffe is inspired to keep competing on the international level. “The 2020 Olympics is still in the cards; my next solid goal is the Commonwealth Games in 2018,” said Ratcliffe. “Over the summer, I will be aiming for the World Championships in London and the World University Games in Taipei, Taiwan. They are both in August. I will take off September and go back to New Zealand to keep training and start my campaign for the Commonwealth Games.” —Bill Alden

Princeton AD Marcoux Samaan Named to Football Committee

With the 150th birthday of college football on the horizon, a group of college football leaders announced plans to launch a nationwide celebration to commemorate the milestone and Princeton Director of Athletics Mollie Marcoux Samaan will be part of the effort. M a r c ou x S a m aa n w i l l serve on the 13-member commit tee, a move that makes sense as the football game between Princeton and Rutgers on November 6, 1869 is considered to have been the first American game ever played. “I am honored to represent Princeton University, one of the founding fathers of college football, on this national committee,” said Marcoux Samaan, who will be joined on the committee by Rutgers AD Pat Hobbs. “I am very proud of Princeton’s important role in the legacy and development of

college football throughout the game’s history and am particularly proud of Princeton Football’s consistent and passionate commitment to excellence on the field, in the classroom and in the community.” Longtime college athletics administrator Kevin Weiberg, former Big 12 Conference commissioner, has been selected to run the effort, beginning August 1, 2017. He will work out of the National Football Foundation’s office in Dallas, Texas. It is anticipated that the commemoration will be celebrated at all divisions of college football during the 2019 season, with a focus on November 6, and culminating with the College Football Playoff championship game in January 2020. Weiberg will report to a committee made up of representatives from Rutgers University, Princeton University, the NCAA, American Football Coaches Association, the Division I conferences, National Football Foundation, National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and others.

One of the traditional spoils of victor y when a Little League team wins a district title involves the players brandish ing t he championship banner collectively in the post-game celebration. For the Princeton Little League squad, that image provided motivation as it faced West End last Wednesday at Farmview Fields in a winner-take-all game in the double-elimination District 12 Intermediate 50/70 tournament. “A couple of minutes before the game started, we said ‘Close your eyes and imagine you are standing up in front of home plate two hours from now, and see yourselves holding the traditional Little League banner,’” said Princeton manager Jon Durbin, whose team had lost 11-2 to West End a day earlier when it had a chance to wrap up the title. “We said, just envision that; you have got to want it more than West End. If you want that more than they want it, then we are going to be out there holding the banner. So every half inning in the dugout, I would just yell out to them, see the banner.” Princeton didn’t waste any time showing how much it wanted it, jumping out to a 5-0 lead over West End. “We came out smoking, we put five runs on the board in the top of the first inning,” said Durbin. “It was two-out rally for the most part. We had the bases loaded with two outs and the bottom half of our order up. The guys came up and hit three singles in a row and plated five runs. Scoring the five runs in the first inning set the tone.” With PLL extending the lead to 7-2, it put the game out of reach with a threerun outburst in the top of the seventh, highlighted by a two-run homer by Dhillon Choudhri to win 10-3. While the Princeton offensive fireworks were impressive, Durbin tipped his hat to the mound effort of starting pitcher Jaxon Petrone.

“Ja xon pitched si x in nings and threw 94 pitches; it was his longest outing of the whole spring/summer by far,” said Durbin. “I can tell you from watching a ton of PLL district games over the last decade that his performance was one of the all-time great performances. He just had them baff led the entire game. They just couldn’t figure him out so he got the game ball. He had a great offensive performance throughout the tournament but that pitching effort was key.” Having finished second in the District 12 tourney after winning the title in 2014 and 2015, PLL was thrilled to be holding the championship banner again. “For the 11 returning players on the team, they felt like it was vindication for them,” said Durbin. “They really came through and nailed it. They felt like they had let one get away last year. For them, the big thing was to come back and really get it done this time.” In coming through, PLL focused on being gritty. “A huge point that we have made to them is that when you get to this level, most of the teams are pretty good,” said Durbin. “So if everyone has a lot of baseball ability, the team that is usually going to come out and win it is almost always the team that wants it the most. It is the team that is willing to play the hardest, get the little things right all of the time, and work really well together.” On Friday evening, PLL applied that lesson in Section 3 play as it overcame a 9-7 sixth inning deficit to edge Sayerwood South 11-9 in Middletown. “It looked like it was slipping away from us at that point,” recalled Durbin, who got another big game from Choudhri in the win as he went 2-for-3 with a homer, two runs, and three RBIs. “I laid it on the line. I said, ‘If you want to be sectional champs, you have got pull it together now and bring

the hammer down on these guys.’ We put four runs on the board and we got them 1-2-3 in the top of the seventh.” After suffering a 20-0 loss to a powerful Freehold team on Saturday in a winner’s bracket contest, Princeton bounced back with a 6-4 win over Barnegat in an elimination game a day later. “Coming into today, that 20-0 game could have really devastated them but they got back up today and they came at them,” said Durbin, who got two homers from Andrew Lambert in the win, including one to lead off the game. “They got after this team. They stayed in front, they played really good defense, and the pitching was tremendous.” In defeating Barnegat and advancing to the final round of the sectional against Freehold, PLL got a tremendous effort from starting pitcher Bobby Kuczynski. “Bobby pitched today 5 2/3 innings today with 65 pitches.” said Durbin. “He is more of a classic pitcher. He can put zip on the ball, he changes speeds, and he elevates the ball. He is a complete pitcher with a package of pitches.” With Princeton playing Freehold on July 5 needing a win to force winner-take-all finale the next day, Durbin believes his players will rise to the occasion. “We told them after the game that you guys are extraordinary, you are only the second team in the history of PLL to reach a sectional championship round,” said Durbin, noting that the 2015 PLL team had made it to the sectional final round. “We said that if you are willing to go one step farther and not just settle for making the championship round and do all the things we have been talking about to win it, you are going to have a chance to win.” —Bill Alden

Girouard Provides Aggressive Play As Post 218 Baseball Falls to Trenton John Girouard and his teammates on the Princeton Post 218 American Legion baseball team didn’t hang their heads when they fell behind visiting Trenton Post 93/182 in the top of the first inning last Wednesday evening. Despite having won only two of its first 12 games this summer, Post 218 wasn’t fazed by the slow start. “It has been a long season for us but one thing I would say about this team is that we keep fighting no matter what,” said Girouard. Girouard helped Post 218 fight back against Trenton, drawing a walk and scoring a run in the bottom of the first and then grounding a two-run single into right field an inning later to give Post 218 a 4-3 lead. He added two more singles and a run scored as Princeton built a 9-7 lead. “The way the game was going, I thought I had to be aggressive as possible and really push it to them,” said Girouard. “That is how we want to play, it is OK we have nothing to lose out here.” Post 218, though, squandered that lead as Trenton pushed across three runs in the top of the sixth and final inning to pull out a 10-9 win. “At the end of the day, a lot of us were playing out of position,” said Girouard. “I was playing third base for the first time out of position. It was our first game for a while so maybe we were a little cold. It was a one run game and that is what cost us.” Playing in his second year with Post 218, Girouard has emerged as a team leader. “I have started both years,” said Girouard, a rising senior at Princeton High who was a key reserve this spring for the Little Tigers. “I love the coaches, I love the team. It is a great atmosphere.” For G irouard, play i ng for Post 218 gives him the chance to build on the progress he made in his junior season with PHS. “It is almost an extension of the high school season in a way, the teams we play are pretty much the exact teams we play during the season,” said Girouard. “It is good baseball out here. As a player it just helps improvement. The only way

to get better is game experience. You can do all you want in a cage and getting reps in the outfield but the best thing to get better is just playing the game.” While Princeton didn’t get the win against Trenton, Girouard savored the experience. “It was fun, it was a beautiful night,” said Girouard. “The result wasn’t what we wanted but it was a great day of baseball.” Post 218 manager Tommy Parker had fun watching Girouard compete against Trenton. “John was in the action all night,” said Parker. “He was playing out of position, he is usually in left field. Just the fact that he was able to adjust and do that defensively and then be on base four times isn’t bad.” Although Parker is proud that Post 218 forced the action in making its comeback, h e ack nowle dge d that the team needs to play sharper. “They do battle, where we get beat a lot of time, we beat ourselves,” noted Parker. “They have got to stop making mental mistakes, that is really what it is. It is tough to always have to fight back and battle back. It is good instinct but you have got to stop putting yourself in that position too.”

In addition to Girouard, several other players on Post 218 are enjoying good seasons. “Aidan Duffy is hitting the ball, Chris Sumners had a streak going on,” said Parker. “He is playing first base primarily but was the first left-handed catcher I have s e e n i n y e a r s. H e h a s stepped up as a team leader. Zach Yoelson is another one who has stepped up.” With Princeton dropping to 2-13 with a 10-1 loss to Hightstown Post 148 last Friday, Parker is looking for his players to step up over the homestretch of the season. “It is a matter of getting it all to mesh at the same time,” said Parker, whose team plays at Ewing Post 314 on July 5, hosts Hopewell Post 339 on July 6 and South Brunswick on July 7, plays at Hamilton Post 31 on July 9 and at Hopewell on July 10, and then hosts Allentown on July 11 in its regular season finale. “I am always optimistic; there is always tomorrow. We have a lot of games left.” Girouard, for his part, is confident that Princeton will keep giving its all to the final out of the season. “We are not going to give up, this team is a fighter,” asserted Girouard. “No matter what happens, we will fight to the end, to the last strike. We are just going to keep on going.” —Bill Alden

PHS Star Hawes Ends Football Career With a Bang, Helping West Squad to 24-7 Win In Sunshine Game Matt Hawes will never forget the last play of his high school football career. Playing for the West squad in the Sunshine Football Classic last Thursday evening at The College of New Jersey, recently graduated Princeton High star Hawes carried the ball in the waning seconds of the contest. Hav ing done the dir t y work of blocking from his fullback position as the West team rolled to a 24-7 win, Hawes lobbied PHS head coach Charlie Gallagher, the West offensive coordinator, for the chance to get the ball in his hands. “It was getting toward the end of the game and since I am a fullback, I was making a lot of blocks,” said Hawes. “I went up to coach Gallagher and said I haven’t carried the ball once yet so he gave me the ball and I had a nice little run.” With that, Hawes went off into the sunset. “It was kind of surreal,” recalled Hawes. “We shook hands and walked to the end zone. I knew this was the end of my high school career so it was different.” Ending his football career by playing in the all-star contest was special for Hawes. “I was really grateful to be

able to play in this game,” said Hawes. “I had two of my teammates [ Ethan Guerra and Alex Solopenkov] here. I had coach Gallagher, who was my head coach and he was the offensive coordinator. I was working closely with him and also the running backs coach at PHS, coach [Dave] Filson, was the running back coach here.” The West squad methodically wore down the East, marching 80 yards in 16 plays on its first possession of the game, taking a 7-0 lead on a four-yard run by Mitchell Finnegan of North Hunterdon. Adding a field goal in the second quarter, the West led 10-0 at halftime. In the third quarter the West outscored the East 147, with nether team scoring in the final period. “The defense was set off pretty well from the beginning but the offense took a little while to get going,” said Hawes. “Once the offense got going, we put up some points.” While Hawes did double duty during his career for PHS, playing both defensive end and running back, he enjoyed focusing on one side of the ball for the Sunshine game. “I was very happy to play fullback, getting to make

blocks, carry the ball, and play offense,” said Hawes. Having injured both of his knees and enduring four surgeries over his high school years, Hawes savored the chance to end his football career with a bang. “I wasn’t able to play sophomore year and then I came back and played junior and senior year,” said Hawes. “It was nice being able to be captain my senior year and come back and do a lot.” In a few months, Hawes will be heading into a very nice situation as he starts his studies at Harvard. “It came down to the best fit for me,” said Hawes, who is looking into playing club sports in college and is considering taking up rugby. “It was Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford. Princeton is pretty much in my back yard and Stanford was the opposite. It was really far away. I like the feel at Harvard, they made me feel like I was at home.” —Bill Alden

Sparked by Coolahan’s Offensive Outburst, PA Blue Devils Top King’s in Summer Hoops Last winter, Jack Coolahan assumed a supporting role for the Babson College men’s basketball team when it won the NCAA Division III national championship. As a freshman guard for the Beavers, the 6’4, 185-pound Coolahan, a native of Newtown, Pa., averaged 1.8 points a game in nine appearances. This past Friday in the Princeton Men’s Summer Hoops League, Coolahan stepped into a leading role for the PA Blue Devils, scoring a team-high 21 points to help them pull away to a 70-60 win over King’s Pizzarama at the Community Park courts. With the Blue Devils coming off a tough 62-60 loss to Majeski Foundation a night earlier, Coolahan and his teammates were primed to get back into the winning column. “Last night was a hardfo u g h t g a m e , t h e y a r e obv iously t he defending champions,” said Coolahan, reflecting on the setback. “We were motivated tonight to definitely not go

1-3. We started out a little slow but eventually started shooting better.” Coolahan’s hot shooting from the perimeter was a major factor as the Blue Devils went on a 25-11 run midway through the second half to break open a tight contes t t hat s aw K ing’s trailing just 42-38 at one point. “I didn’t shoot as well in the first couple of games,” said Coolahan. “I started to really find it tonight. That was a good development for me.” With the Blue Devils featuring a number of Division III performers, Coolahan believes he must bring intensity every night to make an impact. “There are a lot of good college players here,” said Coolahan, who started playing with the squad last summer. “I try to be as aggressive as I can and play hard defense.” In Coolahan’s view, the aggressiveness displayed by the Blue Devils down the stretch Friday night will make it hard to beat when

the playoffs start later this month. “We are better than 2-2, we could definitely string together some wins and get a good playoff seed,” said Coolahan. “It definitely helps to get stops, get rebounds, and start pushing in transition. I think we can get a lot of points off of that.” —Bill Alden

1926, he attended Junior 3 in that city, graduated from The Lawrenceville School in 1945, and received a bachelor of science degree from Yale University in 1949. His military service was with the New Jersey National Guard after World War II. He was a champion swimmer at both Lawrenceville and Yale, affectionately referred to by his teammates as “Shoulders.” Going to the gym three times a week was routine throughout his life, maintaining a 32” waist and a 44” chest until his 70s. Peter’s career and passion for the stock market began in New York with the brokerage firm of A.C. Allen. Over 60 years later, in Princeton, he retired reluctantly from Oppenheimer and Co. at age 88. His heart was at the Jersey Shore, spending summers at the family home in Mantoloking, where he and his wife, Patty, moved permanently in 2015. Over the years, the beach house was a gathering spot for family and friends where cherished memories were made. A long-time member of the Bay Head Yacht Club, Peter enjoyed dinner on the deck at sunset, relaxing on the

beach, catching the waves, and riding his bike. In recent years, he was happy sitting on the porch and chatting with both “doggies” and dog walkers as they strolled by. His affection for animals was second only to his devotion to family. A lt houg h i n de cl i n i ng health for several years, Peter had rebounded from serious medical conditions and was called a miracle man. He was mentally sharp, determined to move around with his cane, and was still driving the day before the fall. He was predeceased by his mother, Evelyn W. Henry; father, Peter D. Thropp, Jr.; step-father Edward A. Henry; and sister Susan C. Henry. Surviving are his beloved wife of 60 years, Patty (née Duvall); and his brother Clifford W. Henry (Michele) of Vero B each, F la. He also leaves behind his devoted sons, Brooks (Betsy); grandsons Peter and Davis, all of Monkton, Md; Christopher (Jill); grandchildren Kelsey, Christian, and Will of Mechanicsburg, Pa; and numerous loving nieces and nephews. A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held

at 11 a.m., Friday, August 4 in Bay Head, N.J. at All Saints Episcopal Church, 500 Lake Avenue. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to: SAVE — A Friend to Homeless Animals, 1010 Route 601, Skillman, NJ 08558.

JUST WHAT IS NEUTRAL?

1 BEDRooM APTs NEAR NAssAU sT. FoR RENT:

If you've ever moved - or if you're planning to move - you've probably heard it dozens of time: Keep your home as neutral as possible to attract the most buyers. But what does neutral mean? Should you strip your home of all signs of personality? How much "individual expression" is OK? The fact is, there's no cut-and-dry answer; certainly, a few personal items like tasteful family photos or trophies are fine, and you can even expand your color choices beyond the standard white and cream without causing too many ripples. The key is to avoid bright or hard-to-match shades and instead stick with pastels for bedrooms and, yes, browns, creams and grays for main living areas. Pale yellow or pale blue can also be safe choices, especially in kitchens.

Available starting 7/1/2017 located in Princeton Borough “tree” streets. Wooden floors. Abundant light.
