With Police Under Pressure, Training Pays Off
Police officers throughout the country are under unusual pressures on the job these days. Recent police shootings of black men and sniper attacks on police have dominated the news and have created heightened levels of criticism, scrutiny, concern, and fear. The Princeton Police Department — through many different training initiatives — and the community at large have been grappling with this problem, and an incident that took place last week demonstrated some positive results from their efforts. At a special forum two weeks ago, local police, religious leaders, municipal officials, and local residents confronted the challenges facing Princeton and other communities nationwide in this climate of alarm, hostility, and violence. Mayor Liz Lempert and others at the forum talked about the need “to understand a multitude of perspectives,” “to empathize and humanize” on all sides in seeking to move towards reconciliation. She said that on issues of race and community-building “the work in communities like Princeton will set the national model.” The central portion of the program included speeches and a dialogue between a white police officer, Bill Kieffer, and an
African American, former gang member, now a Stone Hill Church elder, Tone Bellamy. The evening ended with vows to keep the dialogue proceeding along the path to understanding, empathy, and “changing the narrative.” Five days later, the words of Princeton’s well intentioned mayor, police officials and citizens were put to the test in a potentially dangerous incident on the streets and in a house in town. As reported in last week’s Police Blotter, as Princeton police officers investigated a suspicious vehicle connected to
burglaries outside the Princeton area in the early morning hours of Monday, August 1, a man emerged from the bushes on Dodds Lane and ran away, disobeying the officers’ orders to stop. Later that morning, in responding to an activated car alarm on Harriet Drive, officers noticed a subject matching the description of the man who had eluded them earlier. He ran again. They pursued. Their search led them to an apparently vacant Ewing Street home, where they heard a loud noise, entered the home through
After hearing from some members of the community and municipal staff, Princeton Council opted Monday evening to extend a public hearing on an ordinance that would alter the rules about cutting down trees in town. The meeting’s light agenda allowed for an extended discussion about the ordinance, which has been reworked by Princeton’s Shade Tree Commission and Code Review Committee. The measure will be taken up again at the Council’s Continued on Page 11 next meeting on September 12.

First Baptist Church of Princeton in partnership with Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (TASK) invites members of the community to share a supper every Tuesday evening from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Church, located at the corner of John Street and Paul Robeson Place. Meals can either be taken home or eaten at the Church.
Liz Lempert asked that the entire ordinance be posted before the September 12 meeting so people will have a better understanding of what it contains. Robert Von Zumbusch, who is a member of the town’s Historic Preservation Commission, asked that the group be given time to review the proposed ordinance before a final vote is taken. Victoria Airgood, a member of the Shade Tree Commission, said that 420 tree removal permits were issued last year, some of which allow for the removal of dozens of trees for development on vacant land. “That represents a loss of 1,260 trees greater than eight inches in diameter at breast height in Princeton. And that’s just during the first ten-and-a-half months of 2015,” she said. At a press meeting earlier in the day, Ms. Lempert said the ordinance is key to maintaining Princeton’s character. The town is among those designated as a “tree city” by the Arbor Day Foundation. “I think that we want to make it so that there’s some consideration of the damage it causes when you take down a healthy tree,” she said. “That’s one of the jobs of the municipal government — to put controls on private property to the extent that it has an impact on everybody else in the community.” —Anne Levin

Police Blotter Pursuit of DWI On John Street Leads to Arrest
On August 6, at 10:24 p.m., a Princeton patrol unit was traveling north on John Street when the officer had reason to believe that the license plates on the vehicle in front of him were stolen. A license plate inquiry confirmed that the license plates were in fact stolen. As a result, a motor vehicle stop was initiated, at which time the suspect vehicle fled north on John Street. Princeton Police followed for approximately one mile,
during which several motor vehicle violations were observed. The suspect vehicle eventually made its way back to the area where the initial stop was made. The officers were able to safely stop the suspect on Leigh Ave. in the area of John St. The driver, a 29-year-old Hispanic male from Princeton, was placed under arrest and transported to police headquarters, where he was charged with numerous motor vehicle offenses including driving while intoxicated. He was also charged with the following criminal offenses: eluding, receiving stolen property, hindering apprehension, and operating a vehicle during a period of license suspension for a previous DWI. After bail was set at $25,000, he was taken to the Mercer County Correctional Center.
Correction A front page story [“Princeton Gets Drenched by Saturday Storm”] in the August 3 issue of Town Topics referred to a house on White Pine Lane that had to be evacuated due to “six or seven feet of water” in the basement. The address given was incorrect, the flooding occurred at another house on that street.

For 32 k ids f rom t he Princeton Family YMCA’s Specialty Camps, the farm was the last stop on a twoweek tour of local eateries, most of which are owned by Raoul and Carlo Momo. Before heading back to the Y, they were treated to a cooking demonstration followed by a lunch of meatball sandwiches with fresh cucumber and dill salad at the Momos’ restaurant Eno Terra. The Y’s Specialty Camps focus on a different topic each week. The idea is to provide intense exposure to children aged 6-11 who have a strong interest in a variety of subjects, from art to animal conservation. Special guests join the children to talk about their areas of expertise. Field trips such as the excursion to the farm are a highlight of most sessions. The ever-popular cooking camp is the only topic that takes up two weeks instead of one. The campers are divided into t wo age groups for some activities. The older ones got a chance to spend time at The Savory Spice Shop. Both groups learned knife skills from chef Terry Strong at Mediterra, and baked bread at Terra Momo Bakery. Other eateries hosting them during the week were Jammin’ Crepes and House of Cupcakes. For the Momos, both of whom were on hand for the farm visit, taking part in cooking camp and providing all of the food at no charge is a way to give back. “It’s part of connecting with the community,” said Raoul Momo. “And once you teach kids about real food, it works. They love it. It’s so cute to hear kids say, ‘We made bread there!’ when they walk past the bakery.” Eno Terra One Acre Farm takes up a small fraction of what was once a vast nursery in Kingston. The school bus carrying the campers
turned off Mapleton Road and rumbled down a rutted dirt road, along the canal, to the clearing where rows of vegetables grow. Ready to welcome them was Alex Martin, a British-born chef/ farmer who once worked with chef Jamie Oliver. “You should care about what you eat,” he told the kids before beginning the tour of the plot. “You need to know where your food comes from.” Explaining about crop rotation and nutrients in the soil, he continued, “All of these plants give something, and take something back.” Carlo Momo also weighed in. “How many of you have been on a farm?” he asked

the campers. Several hands shot up. “There’s nothing better than having food right from the farm and knowing where it came from,” he said. Each of the children was given some vegetables to take home before boarding the bus back to Eno Terra, where sous chef Frank Ca-
poni and executive chef Joseph Voller were waiting to give them a brief demonstration before sending them upstairs for lunch. “You’ve got to be in the community,” Carlo Momo said. “You rely on the community to help support the restaurants, and you want to give back. And it’s not limited to the Y. We also have kids from PDS [Princeton
Day School], Trenton, and elsewhere who we do this for. These memories go with every demographic.” —Anne Levin

Attendees this year are invited to join a Guinness World Record attempt for gathering the most people wearing butterfly wings. Parents and children can attend the butterfly and bug parade, hay rides, nature walks, insect zoo, and crafts for all ages. New this year are juggling demonstrations, an aerial acrobatics show, butterfly stilt walkers, and the Dunkin’ Donuts Cruiser which is giving out free iced coffee samples. There will also be a dog agility show, glitterhoops, spin art, and plenty of local food. Shuttle parking for the Butterfly Festival is provided by Bristol-Myers Squibb across the street from the Watershed Reserve (access from Titus Mill Road). Discount admission to the festival can be found online at thewatershed.org. Entry is free for new members signing up at the festival.

Question of the Week:
“What events are you most looking forward to at the Summer Olympics and which athletes will you be following?” (Asked at Sunday’s Kingston Fest) (Photographs by Emily Reeves)
“I’m looking forward to seeing the 16-year-old gymnast, Simone Biles, who has some exemplary moves that have not been equaled by anyone else in the world.” —Jeremy Pollack, Kingston
“I’m following Katie Ledecky in particular, I would like to see her wind up with as many gold medals as possible. I’m also not going to miss the men’s track and field 100-meter dash — fastest man in the world.” —Carlo Momo and daughter, Anna, Princeton
“We’re both swimmers, so we’ll be watching all the swimming events, following Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, Katie Ledecky, Jack Conger.” —Erin Henricksen and Kristopher Farreny, Kingston
“I’m following my neighbor Grace Latz in U.S. Rowing because they’re based from right here in Princeton. I’m focusing on rowing. And, I love gymnastics and swimming too.” —Amanda Nicol, Kingston
“I follow field hockey because that’s what I love. I really enjoy the game. I’m not following any athlete in particular, except maybe Usain Bolt because of the all the press around him, coming back after his injuries.” —Sachin Kulkarni, South Brunswick
“I’m excited to see Mr. Phelps win another medal or two or three. I am also interested in the sailing events but I’m not sure they will be on television.” —Gerry Jurrens, Kingston
A 1982 Mack 1250 GPM pumper truck set out early this morning from Princeton Fire Department’s Mercer Engine No. 3 on Witherspoon Street on a journey to Nicaragua. At the wheel of the fire truck, a donation to the Benemerito Cuerpo de Bomberos volunteer firefighters of Managua, was former Princeton Fire Chief Ray Wadsworth. In his own car, Jorge Narvaez, a Princeton police patrolman for the past 22 years, accompanied Mr. Wadsworth to McGuire Air Force Base and drove him back to Princeton. The fire truck will continue its journey on a C5 Galaxy Air Force Reserve cargo plane — Thursday to South Carolina and on to Nicaragua on Saturday with three other fire trucks. Mr. Nar vaez, who has been working to acquire and transport this fire truck for over a year, commented on its importance for the Managua fire fighters. “It’s one of the best fire trucks they will have,” he said. “It’s an important asset for them. They just need to fill it with water and gas, and it’ll be ready to go.” Mr. Wadsworth and Mr. Narvaez will be traveling to Managua in October for an official presentation of the fire truck to the Benemerito Cuerpo de Bomberos, which is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year.

fore coming to the U.S. in 1981, was visiting Managua in 2014 he stopped in at the fire company, where he knows the chairman of the board of trustees. They were in dire need of vehicles and equipment. On his return to Princeton, Mr. Narvaez contacted Mr. Wadsworth for help, and they were able to obtain and send used boots, helmets, and coats to the Managua fire company. Then in 2015 Mr.Narvaez and Mr. Wadsworth found an opportunity when the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ruled that the open cab of Princeton’s 1982 Mack 1250 GPM was a safety hazard and the fire truck had to be replaced. Mr. Wadsworth was able to purchase the truck for a dollar at auction, along with helmets, 13 pairs of boots, six jackets and 1200 feet of hose. Mr. Narvaez made a video on how to operate the truck, and everything was set — except for transporting the 33,000-pound fire truck. Carrying it on a flat-bed truck to Baltimore harbor, then on a ship would have cost too much, $9500, so Mr. Narvaez, a master sergeant in the Air National Guard, began an extensive investigation and application process that finally led to this week’s journey. Key in this process was the Denton Program — operated by the State Depart1 7/12/16 1:08 PM ment, the U.S. Agency for
International Development, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, and the Defense Department — which allows U.S. citizens and organizations to use space available on military cargo aircraft to transport humanitarian goods to countries in need. Much communication back and forth between Mr. Narvaez and the U.S. embassy in Managua and government officials followed, then extensive for ms, measure ments, and description to apply for certification to airlift the fire truck in a military aircraft. This spring Mr. Narvaez’s application was approved, the Air Force sent an inspector to examine the fire truck, and on June 3 Mr. Narvaez received the airlift certification letter that made successful completion of the project a near certainty. With only the official presentation ceremony in Managua in October to look forward to after today, will Mr. Narvaez be happy to settle back quietly onto his police beat? Not likely. “I’m looking for an ambulance and another fire truck to donate,” he said. “Let me know, (609) 510-4222.” —Donald Gilpin

an unsecured door, and inside found a pull-down set of stairs leading to a crawl space in the attic. Officers Chris King and James Martinez there “encountered a male subject kneeling alongside the attic opening and holding an 8-inch object in his hand. The manner in which the object was held was threatening in nature,” according to the police report. Mr. King repeatedly ordered the man, 20-year-old Somerset resident Anthony Eason, to drop the object. The two officers “used verbal commands and de-escalation skills to gain control of the situation and place Eason under arrest,” the police blotter stated. The object he had been holding was determined to be a piece of plastic, and he was also in possession of a screwdriver. Mr. Eason is also suspected of burglarizing an unlocked vehicle on Ewing Street on July 31. He was arrested and transported to police headquarters. Police Chief nick Sutter discussed the importance of police training and praised his officers in using their training to handle this challenging situation. “The benefit of high level training is clearly illustrated in the way our officers responded to the Eason arrest,” he said. “Our officers were able to methodically contain and search for the suspect. Once located, they used their training to apprehend him without the use of deadly force or any force at all. “This was clearly a situation that could have resulted in serious consequences but did not because of our officers’ correct tactical applications to the situation.” Officer Kieffer, in his comments to the July 27 community forum, had also emphasized the proactive training he and his colleagues had received. He ment ioned sensitivity training, profiling training, cultural diversity training, and de-escalation training — all important factors in the Eason case and in ongoing police work in Princeton and throughout the country. Mr. S ut ter share d h is thoughts on some of the key issues that emerged in the community forum and continue to be a part of the ongoing dialogue. “Clearly the community forum illustrated that there are many different perceptions and feelings with regard to recent national events,” he said. “Many of our training initiatives are targeted at providing our officers with the opportunities to empathize with these different perceptions specifically as they relate to various cultures within our community. We believe strongly that in empathizing with various cultural differences our officers are better equipped to relate to residents they come in contact with and better de-fuse situations that could otherwise escalate.” —Donald Gilpin
the American political system. That is the reason I became n.J. state director for the campaign — to put my efforts toward increasing youth participation in our political system.” The Council’s goal is to give young people a say in policies that affect them, to give them a voice and a seat at the table. “All too often our federal government makes critical decisions affecting the lives of young Americans without any direct input from them,” according to the Campaign for a Presidential Youth Council website. “This failure to engage young Americans in the decision-making process unintentionally leads to the underrepresentation of roughly 104 million people under the age of 24.” The presidential council would bring together 24 young people four times a year to make recommendations concerning federal youth programs. In between meetings, council members would crowdsource ideas from listening sessions with peers and bring the best ideas back to Washington. The Council would be bipartisan, with members appointed by the leadership of both parties; privately funded, with no impact on the federal budget; and diverse, reflecting “the geographic, racial, socioeconomic, and philosophical diversity of America.” The campaign lobbies members of Congress to co-sponsor a bill promoting the establishment of the Council, and promotes similar legislation on the state and local levels. They also seek endorsements from youth organizations. They currently have the support of more than 50 members of Congress. “new Jersey is a critical state for us, and we have made a lot of progress here,” Mr. Wellemeyer said. ”recently we passed a resolution in the new Jersey General Assembly that supported the establishment of the Youth Council, the fifth state-wide resolution to support the Council.” They are now working on the state senate, with the idea being to get as much pressure as possible from Congress and state governments to encourage the president to sign an executive order establishing the youth council. In his role as state director of the campaign, Mr. Wellemeyer
serves as spokesman for the organization and meets with local and national legislators. “The idea for the council comes from the fact that one must be 25 to run for a position in Congress, yet U.S. laws have an effect on young people every day,” Mr. Wellemeyer explained. “Essentially, youth deserve a voice in democracy, but they don’t currently have one. That is a problem, and I want to be part of the solution.” At lawrenceville, Mr. Wellemeyer is president of Speech and Debate and the Young Democrats; senior vice president of redefy, a social justice organization striving to defeat hate and embrace acceptance; a team member of the school’s Model United nations; and a writer for the school newspaper, the lawrence. He originally found out about the Campaign for a Presidential Youth Council through Facebook, then decided to look
further into it because of his interest in politics and ended up applying for and getting the job of new Jersey state director. “I believe that youth can have a large impact in politics,” Mr. Widdemeyer concluded, “though many young people themselves do not agree, which creates a problem as fewer and fewer vote under the false assumption their voice won’t be heard in our political system.” A presidential youth council, he maintained, could be an important step in attacking this problem. Mr. Widdemeyer looks forward to majoring in political science in college, but is not sure what he will do after that — “though I’m certainly open to a career in politics,” he said. looks like he already has one. —Donald Gilpin
Mailbox State’s Imposed Affordable Housing Standard Will Determine Princeton’s Future Character
To the Editor: According to the town’s records, Princeton has 7,089 residential structures on its tax rolls: 6,797 single family, 230 two family, 41 three family, and 21 four family. Those buildings together house a total of 7,464 families. Princeton has an additional 111 structures on its tax rolls that are categorized as apartment buildings, each of which contain 5 or more dwelling units. The majority are owned by Princeton University. Interestingly, the town was not able to tell me how many dwelling units those 111 structures represent. Our subsidized housing complexes are tax-exempt and are therefore excluded from the totals listed above. Dormitory rooms at tax-exempt institutions are also excluded. I relate these figures because they seem to me to give a necessary context to the discussion of Princeton’s affordable housing “obligation.” The numbers presented above suggest that, including AvalonBay’s 280 soon-to-be-completed apartments, Princeton has a taxable housing stock of perhaps 8,500 units, of which approximately 6,800 are single family homes. Estimates of Princeton’s affordable housing obligation range from 400 to 1,400 units. If created by private developers and co-mingled with market rate units using a 20 percent set aside, those estimates would require the construction of between 2,000 and 7,000 apartments. 2,000 units would be the equivalent of 7 new AvalonBays. 7,000 units would represent a staggering 82 percent of our existing taxable housing stock. Alternatively, we could dedicate our dwindling inventory of public lands to the creation of between 400 and 1,400 subsidized housing units — the equivalent of creating between 1.4 and 5.0 new AvalonBay complexes, but with lesser materials and more spartan architecture. Here the cost of serving the new population would be borne exclusively by current residents, many of whom are already
struggling with bloated tax bills. The numbers suggest questions for which there are no good answers. Where would we find the necessary land? How high would we be required to build? How would we adapt our narrow streets to the increased traffic? What would be the effect on our existing neighborhoods? What would be the spillover costs — for new schools, new sewer lines, additional police officers, or a paid fire department? And how many current residents would be displaced? It should be obvious that our response to the State’s imposition of a transformative affordable housing standard will determine the future character of our town. My strong preference is to resist the pressure to uproot our leafy, predominantly single family neighborhoods. I consider that our affordable housing obligation, as defined by the State, is zero – and that it becomes positive only to the extent that we permit our lovely town to be transmuted into the “regional hub” envisioned by our planners. I suggest that it is unreasonable — grossly discriminatory even — to expect lower income taxpayers to subsidize non-residents who aspire to a Princeton lifestyle at somebody else’s expense. We need not apologize for our comfortable little town. And we need not meekly accept such destructive edicts. PETEr MArKS Moore Street
Washington Oaks Homeowner Thinks Housing Is “Affordable Today … Unaffordable Tomorrow”
To the Editor: This is in response to the July 27 article in Town Topics regarding the municipality of Princeton approving loans for the inspection/replacement of fire sprinkler heads for affordable housing units in the Washington Oaks development. As an affordable housing homeowner in this development for 22 years, I was completely shocked to learn that an inspection was going to occur. I checked with many of my neighbors who also knew nothing about it. I would think that sometime during the past 22 years, I would have heard something about it prior to reading it in Town Topics. Between $1,300 and $4,600 is a huge expense for affordable homeowners. Why was this not included in our monthly maintenance fee? Why were we not informed by the municipality of Princeton, who voted on this loan approval on July 12, or the Washington Oaks Homeowners Association? On August 3, we received a one paragraph letter from the Princeton Department of Emergency and Safety Services advising us that a meeting to discuss/ review the fire sprinkler system testing requirements will be held on August 10 at 7 p.m. at the courtroom at One Monument Drive. The residents I spoke to thought it was just a review of the annual fire sprinkler backflow testing that we already have done. Why wasn’t more information shared in this letter? Affordable homeowners had to qualify to purchase these condominiums based on their housing costs (including maintenance fees, homeowner’s insurance, etc) not exceeding 28 percent of their income. Within one year of purchase, maintenance fees doubled. Subsequently, maintenance fees continued to soar. In addition, some expenses were removed from being covered by the maintenance fees and we had to pay for them out-of-pocket (e.g. annual fire sprinkler inspections and dryer vent inspections). A large group of us met with a lawyer at that time but most residents could not afford the fees for the lawyer so our hands were tied. Most of us used everything we had to purchase our home. We live in very small units but we pay the same association fee as the large market rate units. The affordable housing units are actually subsidizing the market rate units. Princeton should be ashamed to call it “affordable” housing. Perhaps a better name would be “affordable today … unaffordable tomorrow” housing.

BACK TO SCHOOL International Baccalaureate Program (IB) Presents Rigorous Academic Challenges Founded in 1968, the International Baccalaureate (IB) is a non-profit educational foundation, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. It offers four highly respected programs of international education. Schools, including primary and high schools, must be authorized by the IB organization to offer the programs, which are designed “to develop the intellectual, personal, emotional, and social skills to live, learn, and work in a rapidly changing world.” Today, the IB Program includes 2,399 schools in 129 countries. The program has a well-earned reputation for high standards of teaching, pedagogical leadership, and student achievement. From the time of its founding, IB has emphasized a focus on world understanding. It is designed with the hope of helping students improve the world through knowledge and respect. Students who participate in the IB Program are challenged by its rigorous academic standards, and they are often rewarded by receiving advanced placement in college as well as having
experienced the opportunity to deepen their understanding and broaden their horizons. Forum for Educators Princeton Junior School (PJS) in Lawrence Township is the first independent school in New Jersey to receive the IB Primary Years Program (PYP) World School Authorization. The school serves students from pre-school through fifth grade, and all students from age three can participate in the program, says Susan Weintraub, Princeton Junior School IB PYP Coordinator. As she explains, “Our IB PYP ‘journey’ began in the spring of 2013 when we applied for candidacy. Just last month, Silvana Clark, Head of School, and I attended our first IB Conference of the Americas. The conference provided a forum for educators from all four programs in the IB continuum to discuss pedagogical leadership, educational quality, and international-mindedness. It was a powerful experience to see how the IB Primary Years Program philosophy and curricular framework connected our small New Jersey school
to a larger, global network.” The curriculum at PJS is closely tied to the 5 Essential Elements of the PYP, adds Ms. Weintraub. “These are Knowledge, Concepts, Skills, Attitudes, and Action. Students explore the following subjects: language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, spanish, performing arts (music and drama), visual arts, learning through landscapes, and PSPE (personal, social and physical education). “An important point to note is that these subject areas are not presented as isolated subjects. The IB PYP framework emphasizes concept-based learning, with focus on big ideas that are relevant within and across subject areas. “Having a shared philosophy and framework allows individual PYP schools worldwide to create curriculum designed to meet the needs of their students in different local and global contexts as they explore central ideas through the six overarching transdisciplinary themes (Who we are, Where we are in place and time, How we express ourselves, How the World works, How we
organize ourselves and Sharing the planet) that are universal, significant, timeless, and relevant to learners everywhere,” she continues. “While IB schools do not work from one identical curriculum, they operate from a shared curricular framework and approach to teaching and learning. These commonalities allow for collaboration across cultures and contexts.” Life-long Learning Ms. Weintraub explains that all IB World Schools are required to participate in an ongoing process of review and development guided by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) standards and practices. “This ensures that as educators, we are also committed to life-long learning, self-reflection, and growth in our professional lives” In addition, she notes, “The IB PYP emphasizes inquiry across disciplines and from multiple perspectives while providing learners with opportunities for collaboration and student-initiated investigations. IB PYP is committed to purposeful inquiry-based learning that actively engages children in their own learning by challenging students to pose questions, solve Continued on Next Page

health; human relationships, including families, friends, communities, and cultures; rights and responsibilities; what it means to be human.’” The central idea presented to the students was: People create and adapt space to establish community, continues Ms. Weintraub. “The key concepts addressed in this unit are form, function, and connection.” The lines of inquiry: • How people design space to build community. • How our environment helps us learn. • Democratic decision-making and positive communication. • Expressing and celebrating who we are individually and as a community. “This unit of study resulted in the K/1 students creating a design (to scale) of a natural playscape that they proposed to our Head of School. This shows how all of the IB Essential Elements (knowledge, concepts, attitudes, skills, and action) were integrated in an engaging and purposeful way.” Around the World George School in Newtown, Pa. is an independent boarding school for grades nine through 12. It is one of a few U.S. boarding schools offering the IB Diploma Program, a challenging curriculum for juniors and seniors. The school received its initial charter as an International Baccalaureate Diploma school in 1985. As the school’s information statement explains,
“The Diploma Program structures and balances rigorous academic work with additional requirements that place students in community service and creative and physical activities. Standardized internationally, the program prepares graduates for college in the U.S. or at universities around the world.” The school also offers the IB Certificate Program in more than 20 different areas of study. Certificate candidates take one or several courses in their area of academic interest and upon completion of these classes, they may take higher level or standard tests. They receive IB Certificates for each course successfully completed. All IB Diploma candidates are required to take courses leading to examinations in six subjects, explains Ralph Lelii, George School IB Program Coordinator. The subjects include: Group 1, native language; Group 2, acquired language; Group 3, history or economics or world religions or global politics; Group 4, chemistry, physics, biology, or environmental systems; Group 5, mathematics; and Group 6, art. “We began with two students from Italy in our first class, and we have grown steadily to our current group of 110 juniors and seniors pursuing this second high school diploma,” says Mr. Lelii. “It is important to remember that if a student is doing the entire IB Diploma, they are enrolled in two high schools; this is not a metaphor. They graduate with two diplomas, one of which, the IB, is internationally recognized.” In addition to the classes
for the IB Diploma, students must complete several other assignments, he adds. “These include a philosophy class in epistemology, a 4,000-word research essay, and a 65hour service project. They must also participate in a team sport and artistic endeavor during their time. Shared Goals “The IB assessments are largely essay-based, and they cross many different modalities. Students must submit journals, labs, essays, and creative projects, and take intensive written examinations. The emphasis is on diversity, honoring differences, and recognition of shared goals.” Over the past two years, George School IB Diploma students have worked in service programs in South Africa, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Cuba, and France as well as in domestic programs in Pennsylvania; Washington, D.C.; Mississippi; and Georgia, says Mr. Lelii, adding that George School has been a pioneer in international service work. Participation in the IB Program can be enormously helpful in the college application process, he reports. “Over 300 schools grant an entire year of college credit at the school for the IB Diploma, depending on scores. The simple proof of its influence might be seen like this: Harvard accepts five percent of their applicants. If they will give sophomore standing to an IB Diploma holder, it must weigh powerfully in their perception of the applicant.” Another significant benefit of the IB Program is international standing, adds Mr. Lelii. “IB Diploma graduates Continued on Next Page

are citizens of the world. The IB Diploma is the only high school diploma accepted throughout the world. Over 800,000 students are studying the IB in over 200 languages. It is an attempt by educators to say that in this fractious and diverse world, we can come together across the seven continents and establish a common framework of what we believe students should know when they graduate from high school. There is no such shared program anywhere in the U.S. secondary system of education.” In addition, he points out that “When a school, any school, makes a claim that they have a great math department or language department, if there are no externally correlated assessments,
what does it mean in reality? The benefit of the IB Program is that an 18-year-old is saying that in addition to earning my high school’s diploma, I will also swim in this much larger pond, and take the same exams as students in China, India, Russia, Germany, etc. There is great power in that, I believe; and strong performance on these exams provides evidence to support the claim that a department is strong.” Among George School students who have participated in the IB Program, many point out its benefits during their college careers. Here are some of their comments. Priceless Experience “Because of my IB scores, I received an entire year off at NYU,” says Emily W. “In my free year, I will begin my master’s program. This will
enable me to earn my MA by the time I turn 22!” Adds Cori S., “IB was amazing preparation for the competition I would encounter at Wellesley for college and Harvard for graduate school. IB was tough, and we all competed for the most insightful papers and the coolest art projects. You couldn’t be best every time. You learned that you were still a smart person even when you failed sometimes, and there was more to you than just a grade or paper. It was a priceless experience — to learn that early on — and in a safe environment.” Whether one pursues an IB Certificate or the IB Diploma, the benefits of participating and successfully completing these challenging areas of study can be incalculable. The mastery of critical thinking, careful preparation and research, and succinct writing is invaluable, of course. But moreover, as the IB Program mission statement makes clear: “The International Baccalaureate is more than its educational programs and certificates. At our heart, we are motivated by a mission to create a better world through education.” —Jean Stratton

Schools Institute Policies and Programs To Work Positively With LGBT Students As schools get ready to open this fall, many are finding ways to work with LGBT (an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) individuals. At times Q is added to refer to Questioning. Estimates of the number of students in schools nationwide who self-identify as gay, lesbian, or bisexual are thought to be five percent, according to Massachusetts Youth Risk Behavior Surveys. Students who do not identify traditionally on the binary spectrum but somewhere on the gender spectrum (though not necessarily transgender) may number from two percent to five percent, some sources report. Not only are schools striving to afford these students a safe environment, but also one that is affirming and respectful. Michael Sadowski, professor of education in the Bard College Master of Arts in Teaching program, works with pre-service teachers (those preparing to teach middle or high school) about youth identity and how it is affected by issues related to race, gender, sexuality, immigration, ability/disability, and other factors. His book Safe Is Not Enough: Better Schools for LGBTQ Students was published this month, and during its preparation, he talked with educators to find out how they are introducing and implementing LGBT-inclusive policies in their schools. He also interviewed students for their views.
Agents of Change As the title of his book indicates, he finds that providing a safe environment is a start, but not sufficient. “At best, most schools take a stance of safety with regard to LGBT students. They provide ‘safe space’, have antibullying campaigns, and the like. But it is important for students not only to feel safe but also affirmed, respected, and celebrated in their schools. Some of the examples in the book of how schools do this include LGBTpositive curriculum, schools where the entire community and building demonstrate LGBT-friendliness, teaching students about LGBT rights, how to be agents of change, and teaching about specific issues affecting LGBT people of color. These kinds of wideranging approaches are necessary to help students feel that their schools truly represent them and value their identities.’ Professor Sadowski points out that some schools have established programs for teachers to learn how best to approach these complex issues. “A middle school and high school I have profiled in the book have a point person in the building who is an expert on LGBT issues. She teaches not only an ‘LGBT 101’ class for teachers, but also works with teachers in their classrooms to understand how to incorporate LGBT-positive content in their curricula.” The professor adds that the earlier these programs
can be introduced, the better. “They need to be addressed in age-appropriate ways at all levels of schooling. In the book, I profile the work of an organization called Welcoming Schools. Their curriculum materials include lessons for elementary school students in three areas: understanding gender stereotypes, prevention of bullying, and family diversity. There is no discussion of sexuality. The students learn respect for others that can carry over into more advanced work in middle and high schools. School Community “It is important for all students to have access to the kinds of curriculum and programs I’m talking about here, not just LGBT students,” continues Professor Sadowski. “Moreover, at a basic level, it is important to have full school assemblies when students enter a new school (say, for sixth graders entering middle school) to establish behaviors and language students are expected to use and not use — and to explain why. Educators in this should not skirt the issues, but address slurs directly with students so that there is unambiguous direction about what is expected in the school community. More often than not, when there is clarity around expectations, students will rise to it.” Mr. Sadowski adds that increasing numbers of schools nationwide are becoming aware of the need for this focus on the LGBT community,

but as he points out, “This varies a lot by ZIP code. Schools in the south and the midwest are still behind those in the northeast and on the west coast in terms of implementing LGBT-positive programming. And just about everywhere, there is still reluctance around curricula and the kinds of interventions that can really make a school not just safe but affirming to all students.” Princeton public schools have been in the forefront of implementing such policies, reports Andrea Spalla, president of the Board of Education of the Princeton Public Schools. “In December 2015, our district was one of the first in New Jersey to approve a progressive policy making explicit the rights of transgender and gendernonconforming students. The policy did not break new ground in our operations, it merely codified the inclusive, child-centered practices that our faculty and administrators have had in place for a while. It was very gratifying
to me, as a board member, that our board approved this transgender policy with broad community support.” The Princeton Board of Education policy code specifically states that “Princeton Public Schools are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environment for all students, including transgender students, and to ensuring that every student has equal educational opportunities and equal access to the District’s educational programs and activities …. In all cases, the goal of all PPS staff shall be to ensure the safety, comfort, privacy, and healthy development of all students, including transgender students.” Full Inclusion In addition, the policy code states that “The Board of Education directs that all pupils enrolled in the schools of this district shall be afforded equal educational opportunities in strict accordance with the law. No pupil shall be denied access to or benefit from any educational program or activity or from a co-curricu-
lar or athletic activity on the basis of the pupil’s race, color, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, affectional or sexual orientation or sex, social or economic status, or disability. The Board shall assure that all pupils are free from harassment, sexual or otherwise.” “I am proud to say that the Princeton Public Schools district supports the full inclusion of LGBT students and families in our school community,” emphasizes Ms. Spalla. “In both formal policy and daily practice, our educators strive to ensure that all of our LGBT students of any age are not merely accepted but welcomed and supported through their educational journey. “It is my impression that in general, our middle and high school students are accepting of their LGBT classmates,” she continues. “Our health curriculum includes resources that provide students the chance to discuss these issues, and our high school Teen Pep curriculum is structured to provide
students a space to learn and talk about sexual health and identity.” Gary Snyder, Princeton High School principal, is pleased to report on the steps Princeton High has taken to work positively with LGBT students. “Princeton High School supports, celebrates, and honors a diverse student body that regularly engages in discourse and action on a

myriad of issues. For several years now, we have had an active and highly informed student group who have advocated for more recognition, dialogue, and policy around LGBTQ and gender issues. “One significant outcome of their efforts was the adoption of the district policy in 2015 which sought to codify practices that have been
implemented on a case-bycase basis. The response of the student body, faculty, parents, and community has been positive and supportive. That being said, we know our work with social issues in a diverse and complex world is on-going. We look forward to the upcoming school year and continuing the discourse and good work.” —Jean Stratton

Eden Autism Appoints Chief Program Officer
LEARNING ABOUT THE PAST: Trenton’s 1719 William Trent House Museum recently hosted its annual Colonial Kids Day. Children made lavender sachets with lavender from the Museum’s garden, learned to write with a quill pen, made yarn dolls, played Colonial children’s games, and dressed up in Colonial clothing. Kids and their families also toured the Trent House Museum and Garden, topping off the day with free ice cream. The next children’s event at the Trent House Museum is Camp Trent on Saturday, August 27 from 1-3 p.m. Admission is $3 per child and free for accompanying adults. Visit www.williamtrenthouse.org.

nor McElwee), arrives about two-thirds of the way through the play to take May on a date to the movies. Martin, a local maintenance man, is an incongruity in the strange, tension-fraught world of Eddie and May, an intruder from the real world, where people have regular jobs, responsibilities, families, and lives in the community. Mr. McElwee’s Martin effectively shares the audience’s perplexed perspective as the outsider, the detached observer, placed suddenly and awkwardly in the midst of this bizarre relationship. Ms. Ude has directed with intelligence and sensitivity to the idiosyncratic characters and their interconnectedness. The original script calls for the play “to be performed relentlessly without a break,” and Ms. Ude faithfully follows that stage direction with this high energy, rapidly paced show, lasting only 70 minutes. What this production could use, however, to convey more fully the weight of these proceedings, is a slower pace at key junctures, a bit more time spent highlighting the moments, lingering over the images of May and Eddie and the Old Man that — more than words, ideas, themes, or even the particular characters — should remain in the memory, define this play, and communicate its depths of emotion. The 1984 Obie winner and finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, Fool for Love was first performed at the Magic Theater in San Francisco before moving to the Circle Rep OffBroadway. Mr. Shepard himself played the role of Eddie in a 1985 film version with Kim Basinger and Harry Dean Stanton, and the play was successfully revived again last year on Broadway. ool for Love may be narrower, less rich in scope than other Shepard “family” plays, like Curse of the Starving Class (1977), Pulitzer-Prizewinning Buried Child (1979), True West (1980) and A Lie of the Mind (1985), but nowhere in Mr. Shepard’s work is there greater intensity of emotion and passion or a more fascinating male-female relationship. Princeton Summer Theater, in its finale to an exciting, richly rewarding season, proves eminently capable of capturing and communicating the essential, most important elements of Shepard’s genius. —Donald Gilpin

rumor is all wrong. In truth, the food gets taken home and is eaten by the humans. So, Frank sounds the alarm and warns that “The Gods are evil and they will kill us!” Unfortunately, the news falls on deaf ears, since the majority of his friends are simply too brainwashed to believe him. However, he and a few intrepid souls make a break for it. They include Brenda, Sammy Bagel, Jr. (Edward Norton), Teresa the Taco (Salma Hayek), Lavash the Pita bread (David Krumholtz), Grits (Craig Robinson), Twinkies (Scott Underwood), and fellow sausages Barry (Michael Cera), Carl (Jonah Hill), and Troy (Anders Holm). What ensues is a rollicking exploration of religion, sex, and political issues from the perspective of these anthropomorphized grocery items. For example, Middle East concerns are reflected in the bitter discussion about aisle space between the bagel and the pita bread — a thinly-veiled reference to Jewish and Palestinian tensions. Race in America is touched upon when Grits complains about “Crackers” in a tirade during which he bellows “They call me Mr. Grits!” C o - d ire c te d by G re g Tiernan and Conrad Vernon, Sausage Party is an adult oriented car toon. It’s a coarse and crude movie that deserves its Rrating. Reminiscent of of other equally outrageous animated adventures — Team America (2004) and South Park (1997) — this comedy will resonate with fans of politically-incorrect shock-fare. Very Good (HHH).

rank (Seth Rogen) is frustrated sitting on a shelf in a Shopwells supermarket where he’s cooped up in a shrink-wrapped package with seven other sausages. They pass their time speculating about what awaits them in “The Great Beyond,” meaning the vast unknown that is past the cash register and on the other side of the door. They’re all very eager to be bought because they believe in the rumor that the store’s customers transport their groceries to a heavenly utopia where they enjoy lives of never ending bliss. Also, Frank has another reason he wants to leave, because he has a crush on Brenda (Kristen Wiig), the curviest of the Glamour Buns girls. However, when they’re all about to be purchased during the blowout 4th of July sale, Frank learns from a returned jar of honey mustard (Danny McBride) that the

BOOK REVIEW
“She Said She Said”: 30 Years Before the Beatles, Gertrude Stein Rocks America Do your thing and I shall know you. —Emerson, “Self-Reliance” hen Gertrude Stein arrived in New York in October of 1934 after 30 years abroad, “her eminence on the American scene,” according to her biographer John Malcolm Brinnin, “was shared only by gangsters, baseball players, and movie stars.” And, in time, rock stars. Like the Beatles 30 years later, Stein was greeted by a mob of reporters asking leading, sometimes silly questions. She was interviewed on the radio, filmed for newsreels, swamped by autograph seekers, and invited to the White House along with her partner Alice B. Toklas. “Gertrude Stein Arrives and Baffles Reporters by Making Herself Clear” was the headline in the next day’s New York Times. The news appeared writ large on the electric news feed moving around the top of the Times Building on Times Square: GERTRUDE STEIN HAS ARRIVED IN AMERICA. The subhead of the Times story was typical of the prevailing attitude: “Expatriate Declines To Be Abstruse in Explaining Why Most of Her Writings Are.” Again like the Beatles in February 1964, she charmed and disarmed a cynical, eager-to-ridicule press corps. She was funny, she bantered, she was lucid and engaging. To the obvious overriding question — “Why don’t you write as you talk?” — she replied, “Oh, but I do. After all, it’s learning how to read it. It’s a matter of perception. Youngsters with the least education get it quicker than those not set in their ways.” And just as the mop-topped rock band from Liverpool was at first deemed too bizarre to be taken seriously, the coverage of Gertrude Stein played up details like her headwear, “a Stein hat, a hat as persistent as the repetitions which are a feature of her abstruse writings.” The November 3, 1934 New York Times report of her first lecture to an audience she’d requested not to exceed 500 ( “Gertrude Stein Speaks to Bewildered 500”) borrowed the phrasing of Tennyson’s “Charge of the Light Brigade”: “Half a league, half a league, half a league more or less behind the distinguished lecturer from Paris, with a splitting headache and holding their breath, sat the five hundred. Forward the picked brigade; oh, the wild charge they made just because Miss Stein had said she wouldn’t address more than five hundred. Held fast by Gertrude’s spell, while verbs, nouns, periods and commas fell, straight on their ballroom chairs, bewildered but feeling swell, sat the five hundred.” With the Beatles it was “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!” With Stein, it was “A rose is a rose is a rose.” But while the Fab Four had come to the States out of nowhere, an overnight sensation, Stein arrived after decades of “word of mouth,” not to mention a book on the best-seller list and the cover of the September 11, 1933 issue of Time, where she was described as “a huge
W
squat mountain on a distant border of the literary kingdom.” To Be “Historical” “I always wanted to be historical, from almost a baby on.” So begins “A Message from Gertrude Stein” in Carl Van Vechten’s edition of her Selected Writings (Random House/Modern Library). Taken from a letter to Van Vechten written a little over a month before she died, 70 years ago on July 27, 1946, it is, according to the publisher, “probably the last word from her pen.” Right away she’s in character, choosing “historical” over “famous” and going on to mention how when she was “about fourteen” she used to say to herself “those awful lines of George Eliot. May I be one of those immortal something or other.” She’s referring to the lines about joining “the choir invisible. Of those immortal dead who live again.” By making “immor tal dead ” into “immortal something or other,” she avoids direct reference to death. For someone who took words as seriously as she did, someone with only a little more than a month to live, this was not an uncalculated move. Words were tangible things. They didn’t lie still on the page: they happened, they moved, they lived. Even her last message’s seemingly casual offhand “thanks and thanks again” is a Stein creation, an example of what F.W. Dupee defines as “Steinese” in his introductory essay to Selected Writings: “the peculiar literary idiom made familiar to a large American public by her admirers and nonadmirers alike. Gnomic, repetitive, illogical, sparsely punctuated, this idiom became a scandal and a delight” that had “a formidable currency throughout the teens, twenties, and thirties.” Ten years into the 21st century, a producer who reportedly doubted the box office potential of Woody Allen’s fantasy Midnight in Paris (2011) was under the impression that “nobody had heard of Gertrude Stein.” That anyone could be that out of touch with the Starbucks Cafe pantheon of literary celebrity is difficult to fathom and all the harder with Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas having become icons of the Gay Rights Movement and with same-sex marriage, transgender, and transexuality issues very much in the media mainstream. Gertrude Makes Alice While readers of Ernest Hemingway’s 1926 breakthrough novel The Sun Also Rises knew Stein from the epigraph (“You
are all a lost generation”), another reason for her rock-star-level celebrity in 193334 was The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (1933), which was written in six weeks, she says, “for money.” When it became a best-seller (“I had never made any money before in my life and I was most excited”), she bought “a new eightcylinder Ford car” and an “expensive coat made to order by Hermes” for her white poodle, Basket, “fitted by the man who makes horse covers for race horses.” While The Autobiography is Stein’s most accessible work, it’s also sometimes as gossipy-shallow as the diaries of Andy Warhol. Ernest Hemingway posthumously confronted it three decades later in A Moveable Feast, where he describes the demise of his relationship with Stein (“A Strange Enough Ending”), which happens when he overhears a bout of rough sex between Gertrude and Alice. By “becoming” Toklas, Stein performs a sexual tour de force, effectively possesses her lover, uses her, makes a book of her, for her, all the while publicizing herself, her brand, with incessant full-name references to Gertrude Stein Gertrude Stein Gertrude Stein. Stein Makes Matisse In addition to the numerous inaccuracies and distortions Matisse found in The Autobiography, not the least the description of his wife with her “long face” and “firm large loosely hung mouth like a horse,” he might also have taken exception to the way Stein uses one of his paintings to define herself and her work. Referring to Woman With a Hat (La femme au chapeau), which was regarded as “an object of ridicule” by visitors to the 1905 Salon d’Automne, she writes: “People were roaring with laughter at the picture and scratching at it. Gertrude Stein could not understand why, the picture seemed to her perfectly natural. She could not understand why it infuriated everybody … it upset her to see them all mocking at it. It bothered her and angered her because she did not understand why because to her it was so alright, just as later she did not understand why since the writing was all so clear and natural they mocked at and were enraged by her work.” The Word’s the Thing One of the lectures Stein gave during her American tour is reprinted in Selected Writings for anyone curious about what the “Bewildered 500” experienced at the New York reading. The subject is “The Gradual Making of The Making of Americans,” Stein’s 900-plus-page “widely
feared and neglected” novel, which, as she puts it in the lecture, “was to me an enormously long thing to do to describe everyone and slowly it was not an enormously long thing to do to describe every one. Because after all as I say civilization is not a very long thing, twenty-five years roll around so quickly and four times twenty-five years make a hundred years and that makes a grandfather to a granddaughter.” As the passage above shows, Stein’s appreciation for words as tangible objects is highlighted by her stress on the word thing. The lecture’s last paragraph begins “I felt this thing. I am an American and I felt this thing, and I made a continuous effort to create this thing in every paragraph that I made in The Making of Americans.” The closing sentence begins, “Think of anything, of cowboys, of movies, of detective stories,” and ends with “my first real effort to express this thing which is an American thing began in writing The Making of Americans.” So a thing is a thing is a thing. It’s a word made for everyone from George H.W. Bush (“the vision thing”) to Dr. Seuss, who does it amusing justice when he names the Cat in the Hat’s crazy helpers Thing One and Thing Two. And like all good things, it can be traced back to Shakespeare, in Hamlet’s “The play’s the thing.” A Thing Called Genius Twenty years after Gertrude Stein’s death and 50 years ago this week, the Beatles attained what was arguably the pinnacle of their incredible career with the release of Revolver, where words and music, production values and mystique coalesce into, for lack of a better word, a thing called genius. In The Autobiography, Stein says that she only cared for music in her adolescence: “She finds it difficult to listen to it, it does not hold her attention.” But that was written decades before rock and roll put words and music and rhythm into alignment in a way that emphasized something like the repetitive force of style Stein defined in her own work as insistence. Quoted in Carl Van Vechten’s preface (“A Stein Song”), she explains, “Once started expressing this thing, expressing anything there can be no repetition because the essence of that expression is insistence.” he Said She Said,” from Revolver, is one of the most insistent songs John Lennon ever wrote, from the Steinese of the title to the emphasis on the word of words when he sings “who put all those things in your head/Things that make me feel that I’m mad.” In George Harrison’s “I Want to Tell You,” another powerfully insistent song, “My head is filled with things to say.” And surely Stein and her readers through the years could relate to the line, “It’s only me, it’s not my mind, that is confusing things.” But for the last word, for Gertrude Stein, there’s Paul McCartney’s “For No One,” also from Revolver, “There will be times when all the things she said will fill your head — you won’t forget her.” —Stuart Mitchner

With Methodical Approach Yielding Dividends, PU Alum Cabral Primed for Olympic Steeplechase
D
onn Cabral is methodical when it comes to preparing for competition. As a senior at Princeton University in 2012, the distance running star was known for training like a metronome on the track, flying through one repeat after another. He also slept in an oxygen tent to help replicate the advantages of being at a higher altitude. That disciplined approach paid dividends as Cabral won the men’s steeplechase at the NCAA championship meet and then went on to make the U.S. team in the event for the 2012 London Summer Olympics. Cabral, a 5’9, 145-pound native of Glastonbury, Conn., advanced to the Olympic finals and took eighth. Becoming a professional runner that year, Cabral eventually joined the NJ-NY Track Club. As he turned his eye to making the 2016 Rio Summer Games, Cabral applied his characteristic attention to detail. He started getting weekly massages and physical therapy this year to help prevent injury. Before the Olympic Trials, Cabral headed to Flagstaff, Ariz. to train for a month at altitude. In his spare time, he studied Portuguese to prepare for his
potential trip to Brazil. In his opening round race at the Trials at Eugene, Ore. on July 4, things went according to plan as Cabral cruised to victory in his heat, clocking a time of 8:26.96. Coming into the final, Cabral formulated a straightforward approach. “The race plan in the final was to be on the leaders and stay in contact when the move was made,” said Cabral. “Then it was to make my own move and leave everything I have got on the track in the last half lap or so.” But chaos reigned in the final four days later as Cabral found himself trailing the leaders midway through the race and stood in fifth place coming into the final laps of the race, in real danger of not achieving the top-3 finish needed to make the U.S. team, and barely sidestepping a fallen foe on the last water jump, Cabral surged into third down the homestretch to book his spot for Rio. “I didn’t execute it as I would have liked to have,” said Cabral, 26, reflecting on his roller-coaster ride which saw him post a time of 8:26.37 with Evan Jager finishing first in 8:22.48 and Hillary Bor taking second in 8:24.10.

“I got passed by a few people in that middle 1,000 and when Evan took the lead. I didn’t cover it as well as I would have liked to. I kind of got gapped. I was freaking out; it was crazy. I knew that trials this year had a lot of falls and contact and that was something to be looking out for. The more people’s nerves are on edge, the more they run agitated, the more things happen, and the more shocking the moves are. People were really running out of gas at that point and some of their moves seemed a little bit reckless and that combination caused some people to go down. I did a good job staying on it and keeping my composure.” This week, Cabral will be looking to do a good job at the Rio Summer Games as his first round race is scheduled for August 15 with the final race slated for August 17. For Cabral, earning a return trip to the Olympics was more a matter of taking a weight off of his shoulders than a cause for joy. “The biggest thing that I think Olympians will experience the day after qualifying is a sense of relief,” said Cabral. “I have heard that from a lot of us. There is so much pressure; some of it is good pressure, some of it is bad pressure, and a lot of it is internal. Oh my god this is important to me. A lot of it is I really want to do this for my family, for my friends, and for my sponsors. Nike has put a lot of money into me and given me a way of life.” After the trials, Cabral headed back to Flagstaff for some final fine-tuning before traveling to Rio. “I just need to take a couple of days before I start working out again and let my body catch up,” said Cabral, who placed first in the steeplechase in a time of 8:20.72 at the Track Town Summer Series meet in Eugene on July 29 in his final tune-up before the Olympics.
“The next step will be getting a little bit more training in and fine-tuning so starting to work on my speed a little bit more, getting some faster workouts in because I have a lot of really good 5-kilometer steeple training. Now I want to get a little more specific and train a little more like a miler in the coming weeks.” True to character, Cabral is analytical as he assesses his prospects to make it to the podium in Rio. “If everything goes perfectly, and that includes some things going wrong for other people, there is definitely a chance,” said Cabral. “I need to really be performing at a different level than I performed at the Olympic Trials before I can reasonably say I have a chance at a medal. I am dreaming of it of course and it is in my mind, that is what I am visualizing. For the practical person, I need to have some indications of better fitness before I can say that it is reasonable.” Drawing on his experience in London, Cabral feels more
MEDAL CHASE: Donn Cabral clears a hurdle in the steeplechase at a recent meet. Former Princeton University track star Cabral ’12 will be competing for the U.S. in the men’s 3,000-meter steeplechase in the 2016 Summer Games. His first round race in Rio is scheduled for August 15 with final slated for August 17. This is Cabral’s second trip to the Olympics as he placed eighth in the steeplechase at the 2012 London Summer Games. (Photo Courtesy of USA Track) at ease about competing at the Olympic level. “I don’t think it matters for the race as much but I think I will be better at being calm at the Olympics,” said Cabral. “In 2012, I had just graduated from Princeton and everywhere I was, at the Olympics and that summer competing professionally, I felt like a freshman in the
cafeteria, trying to find his way socially. I am just so much more comfortable with myself and with other elite athletes and big names. I have been around them long enough now where I see past their accomplishments, enough to keep my cool, at least.” —Bill Alden

After Getting Edged at Individual Epee at Rio Games, Tiger Fencing Star Holmes Focused on Team Medal
AD
As Katharine Holmes looked ahead to making her Olympic debut in the women’s epee last week at the Rio Summer Games, she was bringing a peace of mind into the competition rather than nerves. “I have seen my path, I am prepared; I feel like I have never gone into an event so prepared,” said Holmes, 23, a rising Princeton University seFOOD • GROCER • SERVICES • HEALTH • FITNESS GIFTS • JEWELRY • SPECIALTY SHOPS • HOME INTERIORS nior who took a two-year hiatus from school to train for her shot at making the U.S. fencing team for the Olympics. “I don’t feel like there is anything else I could be or should be doing. I am so singularly focused that I know I will be putting my best self out there. Whatever comes may come but I will have done everySAVE thing within my power to be NOW. WEAR as ready as possible.” NOW. While the path didn’t lead to a medal in the individual epee competition last Saturday as Holmes rallied three times and pushed her higher-seeded opponent, Erika Kurpu of Estonia, to overtime before www.oneofakindconsignment.com falling in a 5-4 thriller in the oneofakindconsignment@gmail.com Round of 32, Holmes has anOpen Mon-Sat: 10-5 • 609-924-1227 other shot at Olympic glory as she will be competing in the FRESHNESS • QUALITY • SELECTION team epee finals on August 11 along with the Hurley sisters, We take pride in all of Courtney and Kelley, both forthe fine products we offer to you. mer Notre Dame standouts.

ration. All of June we were conditioning really, really hard. We did a lot of running, a lot of plyometrics and explosive stuff. It is not building new skills. It is really focusing on the actions that we do best and fine-tuning them.” In Holmes’ view, keeping focus will be key as she chases a medal in the team event. “Everybody has the skills but at the Olympics, everybody is going to be nervous because it is such a big stage and it is the competition,” said Holmes. “Whoever keeps it together and is cool and focused, they are going to win. I think that is the strongest part of my game. I have always been super focused. Even in a stressful situation, I maintain my ability to be very analytical and so I think the Olympics is a tournament that will really play to that strength.” Having worked out at both Princeton and New York City during her leave of absence from school, Holmes is looking forward to her final season with the Tigers. “I am excited to come back to the team,” said Holmes, who earned All-American and All-Ivy League honors in each of her first three seasons at Princeton. “I have been training with the team the last two years. I did miss actually being on the team and competing with the team so that will be really fun to go back and compete with them next year.” Holmes, a psychology major who aspires to attend medical school, plans to keep competing internationally after graduating from Princeton. “I am going to go for 2020 in Tokyo, if it works out well,” said Holmes “During my time off I worked in the Princeton Neuroscience Institute and a lot of the research that I am doing won’t be publishable for another three or four years so the timing of my research works out really well with the timing of the next Olympics. My current plan is to matriculate to med school in the fall of 2020 right after Tokyo.” —Bill Alden

DUELING IN RIO: Princeton University fencing star Katharine Holmes ’17 takes a break from a workout in the Tiger fencing room at Jadwin Gym. Holmes is competing in the epee for the U.S. at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Last Saturday, she fell 5-4 in overtime to Erika Kurpu of Estonia in the Round of 32 in the individual epee competition. Holmes has another shot at Olympic glory as she will be competing in the team epee finals on August 11 along with the Hurley sisters, Courtney and Kelley, both former Notre Dame standouts.
As Rowers, Field Hockey Players Produce Good Starts
As the competition heated up on the first full day of action at the 2016 Summer Olympics last Saturday, Princeton University athletes rose to the occasion. In the water, Gevvie Stone ’07 won her heat in the women’s single sculls, deftly handling a choppy race course. Drawing on her years of training on the Charles River in Boston, Stone jumped out to a big lead and then held off two hard charging opponents to secure the win. Stone clocked a time of 8:29.67 over the 2,000-meter course with Fie Udby Erichsen of Denmark second in 8:30.07, and Lina Saltyte of Lithuania taking third in 8:35.932. On Tuesday, Stone won her quarterfinal heat to book a spot in the semis, which are slated for August 11 with the finals one day later. Stone clocked a time of 7:27.04 to win the race by more than two seconds over Jannine Gmemlin of Sw itzerland (7:29.66). Tyler Nase ’13 and Robin Prendes ’11 helped the men’s lightweight four place second in their heat on Saturday, trailing only strong medal contender New Zealand, to advance to the semifinal. Three days later, the boat took fourth in its semifinal heat to miss a spot in the sixboat grand final by one place.
The pair will now compete in the B final on August 11. A victory in that final would give the U.S. lightweight four boat its best Olympic finish since 2000; with Prendes aboard, the boat took eighth overall at the 2012 Summer Olympics. A third former Princeton men’s standout, Glenn Ochal ’08, who picked up a bronze medal in the M4- at the 2012 London Games, competed for the men’s eight on Monday. The U.S. fell to Germany in its heat by just under two seconds, coming in at 5:40.16 with the Germans winning in 5:38.22. The Americans will now race on August 10 in a five-boat repechage (second chance) race to determine the final four qualifiers for the Olympic final. Kate Bertko ’06, competed in the women’s lightweight double sculls heat with Devery Karz on Monday but fell one spot short of advancing directly to the semifinals as the pair took third behind winner China and runner-up Denmark. In the repechage races on Tuesday, Bertko and Karz placed first to earn a berth in the semifinals on August 10. The pair clocked a time of 7:58.90 in winning the race with Japan next in 8:00.90. Another former Tiger women’s star, Lauren Wilkinson
’11, who stroked the Canadian women’s eight to a silver medal at the 2012 London Games, was back in the Canadian W8+ for Monday’s opening heats. Canada took third behind winner Great Britain and runner-up New Zealand. Great Britain joined the U.S. eight, which rolled to a win in the opening heat, to advance to the final. Canada will now join four other boats in a repechage race on August 10. The top four will also advance to the grand final on August 13. Over at field hockey, Katie Reinprecht ’13 fired the opening salvo for the U.S. against Argentina in its opener on Saturday, scoring a third quarter goal to give it a 1-0 lead. The U.S. squad added another tally and held off Argentina to win a 2-1 nail-biter over the second-ranked team in the world. Fellow Princeton alums, Julia Reinprecht ’14 and Kat Sharkey ’13, also played well in the victory. Two days later, the U.S. came up with another dramatic win, edging thirdranked Australia 2-1. The fifth-ranked Americans got a penalty-corner goal from Michelle Vitesse in the 25th minute and a Caitlin Van Sickle goal, with the U.S. up a player, in the 41st minute. The 2-0 lead, though, didn’t last long as the Australians, despite being down two players at that point, scored two minutes later to cut the deficit to 2-1. The U.S. held off the potential Australian equalizer the rest of the way to win by that 2-1 margin. The U.S. has three more group-stage games, and none against higher-ranked teams. A matchup with 10th-ranked Japan is first on August 10 followed by a game against 13th-ranked India on August 11 and finally a matchup with seventh-ranked Great Britain on August 13. The top four teams in each of the two sixteam groups will advance to the knockout stage, which will begin on August 15. In the pool, women’s water
SHINING LIGHT: Robin Prendes competes for the U.S. lightweight men’s four in recent action. Former Princeton University standout Prendes ’11 and another former Tiger, Tyler Nase ’13, helped the U.S. take fourth in the semifinals of its competition at the 2016 Summer Olympics on August 9. Prendes and Nase will compete in the B final on August 11. A victory in that final would give the U.S. lightweight four boat its best Olympic finish since 2000; with Prendes aboard, the boat took eighth overall at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Feeling at Home With Michigan Women’s Lacrosse, Former PHS Star Shane Enjoys Solid Debut Season
NET GAIN: Mira Shane guards the net this spring during her freshman season with University of Michigan women’s lacrosse team. The former Princeton High standout produced a solid debut campaign, playing in 17 games with four starts and posting a goals against average of 8.99 with 67 saves.
I n i t i a l l y, M i r a S h a n e fo c u s e d on Iv y L e ag u e schools as she looked at college women’s lacrosse programs. The Princeton High standout goalie sensed that an Ivy League environment would be a natural extension of her upbringing. B ut as t h e re c r u it i ng process unfolded, she concluded that the University of Michigan was the right place for her. “It was really important for me to find the place that was almost like a doppelgänger or a clone of Princeton in the sense that there was a real town; that it wasn’t necessarily this large city where I would feel uncomfortable walking at night or in the middle of nowhere,” said Shane, a 2015 PHS grad who earned All-Conference and All-American honors during her career with the Little Tigers. “I went out there for four visits. I went twice in the summer time, I went to a camp, and I went there in the winter as well. You need to experience a Michigan winter so I had to trudge on out there. I really just fell in
love with the place where my dad had lived for 10 years. My grandfather went there, I had a legacy.” But in deciding to commit to Michigan, Shane realized she was also embracing discomfort in joining the fledgling program which didn’t start varsity action until 2014. “The coach (Jennifer Ulehla) was somebody who really drew me in, she said one of the main points was to get comfortable here being in your un-comfort zone,” said Shane. “She said I am recruiting people who are willing to do that and to buy into a program where you are going to take some beatings. We are in a really, really challenging conference (the Big Ten) with one of the top power rankings in the nation so to hang with that is something really special.” While Shane took some lumps as she competed with three other goalies for playing time, she ended up enjoying a solid campaign, playing in 17 games with four starts and posting a goals against average of 8.99 with 67 saves.

“I try to be practical as much as possible; it was really nice to experience that as a freshman,” said the 5’5” Shane. “The day that I committed I thought I am not going to play right away; I am going to work hard for two years because there is a junior ahead of me. The playing time was something I am honestly very thankful for because I never had imagined doing that. I still can’t even believe that it happened. The hard work really paid off.” Shane started paying her dues during the team’s fall ball sessions. “I knew it was going to be hard because I am a homebody,” said Shane, noting that the Michigan took part in three tournaments in the fall to get as much experience as possible before starting regular season play in the spring. “To separate from home, coming from a great place, a great family, great friends and a great high school, it was going to be a transition. I just kind of put my head down and put my heart up. It is just grinding.” Making progress, Shane ear ned t he star t in t he op e n er aga i n s t C e nt r a l Michigan in early February and proceeded to make history, coming up with seven saves and not allowing a goal in 53 minutes of action in a 14-1 win on the way to being named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and Freshman of the Week. “The starters weren’t announced until five minutes before the game in the team room in our indoor facility,” recalled Shane. “I am just blessed to play the beautiful game of lacrosse and that day was really great for me. I am this little freshman and had no idea that they gave weekly awards or any thing and then to get two of them for the first time in program history was something that was really special for me to experience. I am so thankful for my teammates and everyone that has supported me along the way.” Over the rest of the season, Shane split time with junior Allison Silber, making a career-best nine saves against No. 7 Florida on February 13 and No. 13 Northwestern on April 7. Reflecting on her development, Shane felt she got up to speed at the college level. “Our head coach worked with me a lot on watching the ball, that is the main transition I would say going from a high school goalie to a collegiate goalie, the speed is crazy fast,” noted Shane. “You have a lot of talented shooters. It is just seeing it, first of all. Fall ball was more finding the ball and envisioning it. Coach would say envision the ball as this beach ball, something big. When the season started rolling around six months or so later, then it is getting your hand speed quicker.” Having been a four-year starter at PHS, not playing every minute was a character builder for Shane. “I had to make a transi-
tion of just being patient as a person and as a player,” said Shane. “And then waiting for that explosion when it is your turn to shine and make that big save and come with a big one for your team, that is the least you can do.” While the Michigan team struggled, going 6-12 overall and 0-5 Big Ten, Shane believes it is laying the foundation for something special. “It is a little challenging to keep on trucking but we did it and got through it,” said Shane. “All we have to do is keep buying in, keep the energy and the positivity up. I really believe we can do that.” Off the field, Shane thrived in the high-energy atmosphere at Michigan, which has more that 28,000 undergraduates and offers a slew of activities. “I would say overall my Michigan experience was really, really just solid,” said Shane, who is planning to be a psychology major with a music minor. “Academically and so cially, it went pretty well for me. I am in an a cappella singing group just like I was in high school, 58 Green. It is Michigan’s multi cultural a cappella group. I am doing a lot of vocal percussion for the group. The classes are really amazing. It is a big school but you make it small. It is what you make of it; so if you open up to people and really just try to find where your niches are, your strengths and your passions, you will be set.” This summer, Shane is working hard to become stronger and faster for her sophomore season. “It alternates, it is a lot of snatches and barbell lifting so it is Olympic strength training in the weight room, which is really cool, and a lot of sprint training,” said Shane, who is coaching a team this summer with the Ultimate Lacrosse club program where she cut her teeth as a high schooler. “Right now it is about getting faster and then bulking up and toning that muscle so you can be ready for fall ball.” While Shane is proud of her roots, she is looking forward to continuing her growth process in Ann Arbor. “I a m a lways m is s i ng Princeton but it is good for me to be out there and I am definitely very, very excited to get back to my grind and and spend time with my teammates, coaches, singing, lacrosse, and working towards a championship,” said Shane. “It was an awesome year. I am thankful about where I came from and now I am looking at what to do with the rest of my life in lacrosse and beyond.” —Bill Alden

Having emerged as one of the top goalkeepers in the area during her freshman season for the Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team in 2014, Grace Barbara faced a critical decision the following spring. Taking up the game as a five-year-old through her local club, Yardley Makefield Soccer (YMS), Barbara had moved up the ranks in its program. But with the YMS team in her age group going through transition in 2015, Barbara was offered the opportunity to play for the Players Development Academy (PDA) Gunners. Although the PDA program was based in Zarephath in Somerset County, nearly an hour and a half away from Yardley, Barbara decided to make the move. “I just felt like that opportunity might be the best for where I was going in my soccer career college wise so I made the executive decision to go with PDA,” said Barbara. “It is a ride but it has been a change for the best.” Sw itching to PDA put Barbara on the road to a national title as she helped its Gunners team win the Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) U16 national champion s h ip las t m ont h i n Oceanside, Calif. The Gunners, who ended the 2015-16 campaign with a 41-0-4 record, featured a stingy defense. “In our 45 games, we let in only seven goals; it was the best defensive record in the ECNL in the past few years, let alone our age group,” said Barbara. “I have a great back line and our other keeper, Meg McClelland, is great. We work really, really well together. My joining the Gunners was great for them because Meg and I have similar styles of play.” The years that Barbara spent at YMS helped her develop into a top goalie. “Through the YMS program we had a couple of keeper t rainers, one of whom is Brad Malone,” said Barbara, noting that she played at striker until she was converted to goalie as a 12-year-old when her team had nobody to play goal. “He is really influential in my life, he helped me build the fundamentals of the position. They say the most improvement in skills happens early and that is what really helped me retain the position and work my way up to be one of the better keepers in my age group and in turn make the regional team and have the opportunity to play on PDA, one of the top clubs in the nation. He really helped me build my skills at a young age in order to help me take the next leaps as a teenager.” In 2015, the Gunners came within an eyelash of making the ECNL Final 4, qualifying for the national playoffs and posting a record good enough in pool play to advance but ended up getting eliminated on tiebreakers. “We had felt the emotion of being knocked out on goal differential, which is the worst way to get knocked out,” said Barbara. “It went down to a couple of different tiebreakers. It
turns out we had let up one more goal than the other team and they ended up moving on. We feel that we could have carried the team through.” Coming into the 2015-16 campaign, Barbara and her teammates were primed to take the next step. “We had a lot of new kids, new blood on the team,” added Barbara. “We felt even though it hadn’t worked out in Seattle for us, that in the next season if we would coordinate all of our skill sets together and it we were an attacking team and went at them, we would be more successful. While the Gunners had high hopes, they were taken aback by their success as they reeled off win after win. “In the middle of the season, our coach got us a cake when we reached 20 wins,” said Barbara. “We were saying how long is this going to last. We knew we were a really good team but everyone is kind of shaking their heads, is this luck, what is this, what is happening.” Qualifying again for the national playoff, the Gunners were determined to make things happen. “We had three very tough teams that we were going to play against,” said Barbara, who helped the Gunners go 2-0-1 in Group C play as they topped the Dallas Texans 1-0 and beat the Vardar (Mich.) ECNL club 4-1 before tying Tophat Soccer Club (Ga.) 0-0. “In the third game, we knew that all we needed was a tie to move on. They were coming at us with some intense pressure and we sat back and played defensively. We said let’s save our energy because if and when we do move on, the competitor that we are going to be playing, Solar Chelsea (Texas), is a very, very good team.” Advancing out of group play, the Gunners defeated Solar Chelsea 2-1 and then topped the FC Stars of Massachusetts 1-0 in the national semifinals to earn a spot in the title game against Real Colorado. “We went into the final saying we have gotten this far and we can’t have our one loss in the season be in the national final,” said Barbara. “We worked so hard. We had gone to practices five days a week. We were playing when our parents had to turn their cars headlights on because the lights went out on the field. We have been busting our butts trying to get to this position and now we are here and we can’t just let it all go. Everyone pointed at everyone and said you need to work your hardest today and leave it all out there on the field and that is what we did for sure.” In the final, the Gunners pulled out a dramatic win, scoring a goal late in overtime to prevail 1-0. “The emotions were crazy, we scored in the last 25 seconds of double overtime to win it,” said Barbara. “We all dropped to the ground, bawling our eyes out. It was totally crazy, an emotional roller coaster for sure. We were still bawling
our eyes out at the awards ceremony.” For Barbara, playing in the PDA program has helped make her a sharper goalie. “The program is probably the highest level soccer I have ever played, not only the players in front of me but the teams that we are playing are just very high level teams,” said Barbara. Having recently committed to attend Princeton University and play for its women’s soccer program, Barbara is primed for the challenges at the college level, on and off the field. “I have been pushing myself academically and athletically all of my life, so why not continue that in my college career,” said Barbara. “I would rather push myself in college and have very good opportunities career wise instead of having it take a back seat and focusing more on soccer in college.” In the meantime, Barbara is focused on helping her PDS squad enjoy another big season as it has won two straight state Prep B titles coming into 2016. “I am very excited for this upcoming season; it is going to be a good season,” said Barbara, noting that preseason practices start on August 22. “ We o n l y l o s t I s a b e l (Meyercord), which is a big gap to fill but we are getting a lot of freshmen in. I am pretty excited to see what the team produces.” —Bill Alden

Obituaries
Jordan M. Young Jordan M. Young, born September 25, 1920, died peacefully in his apartment in Middlebury, Vermont on July 21, 2016. His most recent trip to Brazil, in May and June of this year, capped his 75-year career in the study of Brazilian politics and history. Born in New York City, he first visited Brazil in 1941, arriving just before the U.S. entry into World War II. Unable to return to the U.S. because of war travel restrictions, he continued his studies at the University of São Paulo, worked as a rural sociologist
in the Amazon, and helped organize Brazilian rubber workers to support the war effort. While in Belem at the mouth of the Amazon he met Dionir de Souza Gomes. After a stint as a civilian in the Armed Services Forces Language Unit he served in the U.S. Army from 1943-45. He completed his undergraduate studies through the G.I. bill at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1946. He was the first recipient of the Dougherty Fellowship for the study of Chile, and did research there in 1947 and 1948. On the way there, he once again ran into Dionir, this time in Rio de Janeiro. In 1949 he received a U.S. State Department research fellowship in Brazil. Upon his return to the U.S. in 1950 he was invited to study for his PhD at the Graduate School at Princeton University. It was in Princeton in 1952 that he and Dionir were married — a partnership that lasted 62 years, until her death in 2014. After a brief period in investment banking in Brazil and as a chemical plant manager in Venezuela in 1956, Jordan settled into his life-long role as “Professor Young” at Pace University in New York, where he taught
courses on U.S. history, Caribbean history and culture, and Brazilian history, culture, and politics. He and Dionir lived in Princeton for 55 years, where they were hosts and surrogate parents to generations of Brazilians who passed through Princeton University. Fr e q u e nt ly d u r i n g h i s teaching career he invited political leaders to address his classes via long-distance telephone, leading to longrunning associations with Prime Minister Michael Manley of Jamaica and Governor Carlos Lacerda in Rio de Janeiro. The latter led to the naming of an elementary school in Rio de Janeiro as the “Escola Pace.” In the 1980’s, in an effort to create links between Brazilian entrepreneurs and the financial markets in New York, he founded the Brazilian-American Business Institute, affiliated with Pace University. Later in the 1980’s he cohosted a series of seminars around Brazil on environmental law, in conjunction with the Pace University Environmental Law program. In 2014 he was the recipient of the Rodolfo Lima Martensen Medal of Honor from the Escola Superior Propaganda e Marketing in São Paulo, Brazil.
He was the author of three books on Brazil, including Brazil 1954-1964: End of a Civilian Cycle, which was widely read in Brazil as one of the first books to provide historical perspective on the rise of the military government in 1964. His memoir, Lost in the Stars of the Southern Cross: The Making of a Brazilianist, was published in 2014. His interest in travel never abated. In the last years of his life he traveled to Hawaii, Cuba, Italy, Switzerland, Portugal, and Brazil (several times), as well as the Canadian Maritimes, the Canadian Rockies, and Alaska. Whether speaking Portuguese or English, he had an extraordinary ability to connect with people. It was the unusual person with whom he could not find something in common after a few minutes of conversation, and he formed life-long friendships in places as unlikely as the Princeton-toNew York commuter train. After moving to Middlebury in 2013 he created a place for himself as the senior member of the small community of those with ties to Brazil in his area, as well as creating a network of relationships at the Champlain Valley Unitarian Universal-
ist Society and Eastview at Middlebury. Jordan is survived by his son Jordan M. Young II, daughter-in-law Margaret Levine Young, grandchildren Margaret V. Young and Christopher Isaac Young, and many nieces and nephews in Brazil. He was predeceased by his sister Annette Young Regal and wife Dionir. Donations may be made in his memory to the Jordan M. Young Sr. Trust, which will provide educational opportunities for those in Brazil or studying about Brazil (1042 Ridge Rd, Middlebury VT 05753). A memorial service will be held in the fall at the Champlain Valley Unitarian Universalist Society in Middlebury, Vermont. Interment will be in Princeton, also in the fall. ———
Gloria Lerner Tener
Gloria Lerner Tener, 78, passed away on Aug ust 7, 2016 at Stonebridge at Montgomery in Skillman, after struggling with dementia for several years. Gloria was born in Buffalo, N.Y. and graduated from the Elmwood Franklin School before graduating from the Buffalo Seminary in 1955 and Vassar College in 1959. She married Barry Korman shortly after gradu-
ation and they lived in Buffalo; West Hartford, Conn.; Dallas, Tex.; Winnetka, Ill; and Rochester, N.Y. before moving to Maplewood, N.J. in 1975. She had two children, Heidi Beth Sloss and Tracy Korman. She was active in the League of Women Voters and equal housing efforts when her children were young. G lor ia, who moved to Princeton in 1985, began working as a labor mediator with the New Jersey Public Employment Relations Commission in 1976 and retired as the director of conciliation after 25 years of State service in 2000. In retirement, she participated in several volunteer activities including being a docent at Grounds for Sculpture. She is sur vived by her husband, Jeffrey B. Tener, of 25 years as well as her two children and four grandchildren, Dakin Sloss and Kamala Sloss, and Milo Korman and Sylvie Korman. A private celebration of her life will be held at a later date. ———

Many of us have probably seen some of the physical damage caused by lightning, including broken limbs, split-open trunks, stripped bark and even trees literally blown apart. The danger is not alone to the tree. Persons or animals seeking shelter, as well as homes and buildings under or near a large tree, are always in danger. However, most people are not aware that trees can be protected from lightning until after they have been damaged or destroyed. Trees are attractive lightning targets because they provide a better conducting path than air. Lightning protection systems work by neutralizing opposing cloud and ground charges well above the tree, so that it is never struck, thus, protecting your home and family as well. Several factors, too numerous for this column space to accommodate, go into assessing the potential risk of an individual tree being struck. With the prevailance of Summer storms the risk of lightning strikes increases significantly.
