Planners and Council Hear From the Public On Affordable Housing The future of affordable housing in Princeton was the topic of a standingroom-only public meeting of Princeton Council and the town’s Planning Board in Monument Hall last week. The lengthy discussion included numerous comments from members of the public as well as questions and suggestions from the governing bodies themselves. The town wants to hear the public’s opinions on the issues covered in a document on housing goals written by a Princeton Community Master Plan subcommittee of the Planning Board, planning director Lee Solow said during his presentation. Mr. Solow stressed that the document is not final. Just how much affordable housing Princeton and other towns in New Jersey must provide is a question to be decided by Mercer County Superior Court Judge Mary Jacobson. The group Fair Share Housing has recommended that Princeton be obligated to build 1,000 new affordable housing units over 10 years under new state Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) rules. Several towns in New Jersey have joined a lawsuit that challenges the COAH rules, which require 200,000 new affordable units across the state. Currently, Princeton works with prospective developers with a goal of setting aside 20 percent of all residential units as affordable housing. Councilwoman Jenny Crumiller suggested at the meeting that the number be raised to 40 percent. In a review of a 2008 affordable housing proposal, it was suggested that a parking lot on Franklin Avenue opposite where the AvalonBay rental complex is being built become a site for affordable housing units. Residents of the surrounding neighborhood have expressed concerns about that proposal, urging instead that the site be turned into a public park. The lot is owned by Princeton University and is being donated to the town. Several residents weighed in on the town’s document outlining proposed goals for affordable housing. “What you’ve written is lovely, but it has no teeth,” said Mary Clurman. Heidi Fichtenbaum suggested that encouraging housing that is sustainable is not enough. “Be specific about what we expect,” she said. “All of this was brought into crystal clarity when Continued on Page 8

Shopping Center Makeover Begins at McCaffrey’s
You might say McCaffrey’s has got you coming and going these days. A sizable renovation of the front of the store, due to be completed in about two weeks, has meant that entrances and exits periodically need to be reassigned to accommodate workers and their stockpiles of wood amid the store’s displays of pumpkins and other seasonal fare. In addition to the work at McCaffrey’s, EDENS, the Shopping Center’s owner, has plans to refurbish the parking lot and other stores during the coming months. The goal, EDENS says, is to update the look of the Center. McCaffrey’s manager Steve Carney has no problem with the ongoing work. Store personnel participated in choosing the design (“it went back and forth a few times”), and widened doorways promise greater convenience. The addition of “massive” planters is both aesthetic and functional; designers hope to deter any more accidents like the one in 2011, when a motorist drove into the building through the exit door, injuring two shoppers. Now, no one seems to be complaining about the adjustments. According to EDENS Communications Manager Claire Propsting in a recent interview, “We will be re-paving the entire parking lot, correcting circulation issues, expanding sidewalks, enhancing landscaping, upgrading furniture and bike
racks, adding energy-efficient lighting throughout the parking field and making the center much more pedestrian friendly.” In addition to the McCaffrey’s renovation, Ms. Propsting said, “we will be retrofitting the vacant service station to accommodate Nomad Pizza, while maintaining the mid-century modern look and feel of that building. This will activate that part of the site and create energy with an outdoor patio and pedestrian connection facing the shops along North Harrison Street.” Asked why McCaffrey’s and Nomad Pizza are particular areas of focus, Ms. Propsting explained that they “presented
two stand-alone opportunities to make an immediate impact and refresh the feel of the center.” Like McCaffrey’s, Nomad was involved “throughout the planning process,” and EDENS says that it will work “closely with other retailers to help refine their storefront displays.” “We are very excited about this renovation,” said Ms. Propsting, who spoke from EDENS’s Bethesda, Maryland office. “It will significantly enhance the visitor experience by creating an even more inviting atmosphere.” Like Mr. Carney, Ms. Propsting isn’t too worried about customer complaints. “We Continued on Page 8
Boychoir Begins New School Year At New Location in Hopewell Despite a financial crisis which has landed the American Boychoir School (ABS) in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, classes at the choral academy began this week at the school’s new location in Hopewell. Some 32 boys are enrolled, including eight new students, at the Rambling Pines camp, according to a September 10 report to supporters of the organization by Rob D’Avanzo, the Chairman of ABS’ Board of Trustees. That fig-
ure is down from 50 students, as reported on the ABS website last spring. “When I last wrote to you on June 11, it was to announce our plans to go forward with the work necessary to open ABS this fall under a ‘homestay’ model,” Mr. D’Avanzo said. “Over the course of the summer, we have completed that work. The staff has moved into our new facilities, the homestay structure is in place, Continued on Page 15

Princeton University Freshmen Step Outside the “Orange Bubble” Attending Princeton University and living on its leafy campus could leave students with an insular view of life. But the University’s Community Action program wants them to know that there is another world outside the
“Kitchen as Art”
“orange bubble.” During the week before freshmen orientation, the 11-year-old program offers new students a chance to learn community service skills and put them to work. The students pitch in here in Princeton and travel to urban areas like Trenton, Philadelphia, and Newark to help out with a range of projects focusing on hunger, homelessness, the arts, the environment, health, education, interfaith service, law and justice, and more. Two new group topics, community journalism and local history, were added this year.

and Herzegovina. The two knocked on doors of private homes and businesses, asking people if they were aware of the free taxi service for those who live within a half mile of the old hospital. The University Medical Center of Princeton moved from Witherspoon Street to Plainsboro in May, 2012. “A lot of people hadn’t known about it,” said Ms. Levy. “They were confused about why the old hospital had moved when it used to be right in their neighborhood and within walking distance of their houses.” Added Mr. Vladicic, “Everybody Continued on Next Page

The program is voluntary and attracts more students every year. “This is our largest Community Action yet,” said Elsie Sheidler, associate director of the University’s Pace Center for Civic Engagement, which administers the program. “We have the most freshmen participating, and more groups than we’ve ever had. It signifies the fact that we’ve made more community partnerships. And more freshmen are hearing the good news about meaningful service.” Last week, 200 freshmen and 54 undergraduate student leaders took on 20 initiatives with the nonprofits and faith-based organizations that collaborate with Community Action. Locally, they included Community House, Princeton Nursery School, Princeton Senior Resource Center, the Princeton YWCA, Enable Inc., Lawrence Nature Center, and the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association. On a steamy morning last week, a group of students gathered at Hinds Plaza in front of Princeton Public Library before fanning out across the town to help inform residents of the Witherspoon/Jackson neighborhood, near the former site of Princeton Hospital, that free transportation was available to replace a recently discontinued NJ Transit bus line to the new hospital in Plainsboro. Among them were Sarah Levy, who comes from Brooklyn, and Aleksander Vladicic, from Bosnia

was very grateful to hear what we had to say. They believed that since the transit service was discontinued, there was no way for them to get to the hospital.” Some of the students also helped out at the Princeton Senior Resource Center and the Crisis Ministry at Nassau Presbyterian Church. Those joining the new histor y group focused their energies on Trenton. “They looked at the city as a major manufacturing hub and how it all contributes to the social and political landscape of New Jersey,” said Ms. Sheidler. “They visited The Old Barracks and other sites as part of their experience. The journalism group met with the Planet Princeton and Planet Trenton websites to explore the role in making community leaders accountable to the public.” A d m i n i s t r ator s of t h e program try to match students with groups that fit their interests. Freshmen are sent an email to make them aware of the opportunity with Community Action and Outdoor Action, an additional program. “When they apply, we ask them questions about the types of issues that interest them and go from there,” Ms. Sheidler said. “We do our best to give them their selection. For the most part, everyone is happy.” Community Action fits in with University President Christopher Eisgruber’s efforts to make service a priority in his campus-wide strategic planning efforts. “In fact, his pre-read this summer was Whistling Vivaldi, a book about stereotypes by Claude M. Steel, which we have made the context of a dinner discussion we hold mid-week,” said Ms. Sheidler. “We all read it, and think about what the message is and how that relates to what the students are seeing around the communities, and the service they are doing.” Many of the students who sign up for Community Action have already been involved in helping others. “There are students who in high school have already engaged in service, and they are looking for ways to continue to engage,” Ms. Sheldler said. “They can do that, not just in this first week, but throughout their time here at Princeton.” —Anne Levin

Affordable Housing continued from page one
you were trying to work with AvalonBay.” Toby Israel said the current process “represents an opportunity to really think about affordable housing in a holistic way.” Michael Floyd said he was leery of the “walkability” factor and putting affordable housing units where there is already a lot of density. Leighton Newlin of the Princeton Housing Authority said, “The reason government steps in to level the playing field is that municipal government does not. Keep a balanced and equitable effort as you move forward.” Next steps include developing an affordable housing obligation between now and the end of this month, review and revision of the plan’s housing goals by the end of October, drafting the Housing Element and Fair Share Plan by the end of November, and adopting those two initiatives by the end of the year. The town plans to schedule another meeting on the subject before any final decisions are made. —Anne Levin

A year after Princeton was designated an Age-Friendly Community (AFC ) by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American A s s o ciat ion for Re t ire d People (AARP), Princeton S enior Resource Center Executive Director Susan Hoskins says it’s time for each sector-- business, civic, academic, health services, non-profit – to insure that the “age friendly� description is meaningful and lasting. Ms. Hoskins is also looking forward to PSRC’s annual gala dinner on Sunday, October 18, where Mayor Liz Lempert and Princeton Council, along with Rush Holt and Margaret Lancefield, Heidi Joseph and Dave Saltzman, and McCaffrey’s Food Markets, will be honored as “people who have done so much for supporting older adults in this community.� Features of an Age-Friendly Communit y include a “walkable� downtown, access to cultural activities, safe and affordable transportation, and a range of housing options. Princeton fits the bill nicely in some of these areas, but needs to do some work in others. While Ms. Hoskins credits Princeton for passing ordinances that permit options like “mother-in-law� apartments, “more thought needs to be given other creative housing solutions.� She also points out that the features associated with AFCs make a town “livable� for others as well. Sidewalks that are user friendly to senior adults with walkers also make it easier for kids to walk to school and for parents and caretakers pushing strollers to get out and about. Parks with benches and good lighting are a boon for everyone. A recent conference of representatives from AFC designees reporting on their progress to date was an eyeopener for Ms. Hoskins. She was pleased, she says, to see that their numbers have grown, from just several major cities to over 60 places representing a variety of urban and suburban sizes and concerns. Shar ing their respective experiences in designing and implementing AFC initiatives was, she says, invaluable: “Other communities are doing some amazing things.� The conference and a shared website are evidence of AARP and WHO’s interest in having communities collaborate and keep each other informed. Montclair for example, has a fulltime coordinator overseeing how that New Jersey township fulfills its AFC mandate. Other communities, like Portland, Oregon, have university-based research centers guiding the process. Princeton University does not have a formal gerontology department, though students from area colleges and universities are more than welcome to help with “creative problem-solving,� says Ms. Hoskins. For the most part, though, Princeton, “relies heavily on volunteers,� and so Ms. Hoskins is hoping for lots of people with good ideas to turn out for the two focus groups at the Suzanne Patterson Building on September 24 at 10
a.m. and September 29 at 7 p.m. “People want to be a part of a community, and that’s a big part of our success here in Princeton,� Ms. Hoskins observed. “People could take an online course, but they choose to come in for Evergreen Forum courses,� she said, referring to the d ay t i m e s t u d y pro g r a m based at PSRC. Observing regulars who par ticipate in the center’s lively ping pong games each day and bringing each other gifts for special occasions reinforces her sense that “people need contact.� “PSRC is about building communit y,� she added. “We fit in perfectly with a national and global community that shares ideas and is committed to being agefriendly with good transportation, good housing, good health care, and sustained attention to the day-to-day needs of its aging citizens.� For details on the Gala, v i s i t p r i n c e t o n s e n i o r. ejoinme.org/gala2015. —Ellen Gilbert
Randy Cohen Interviews Peter Singer At Princeton Public Library Event
Randy Cohen will interview philosopher, author and Princeton University bioethics professor Peter Singer for his public radio program, “Person, Place, Thing,� Wednesday, September 30, at 7 p.m., at Princeton Public Library. During the program, guests are asked to speak about a person, a place and a thing they find meaningful rather than about themselves. Mr. Singer has been called the world’s most influential living philosopher and, in 2014, was third on the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute’s ranking of Global Thought Leaders. He is known for his work on the ethics of our treatment of animals, for his controversial critique of the sanctity of life ethics in bioethics, and for his writing on the obligations of the affluent to aid those living in extreme poverty. Mr. Singer has written, co-authored, edited or co-edited more than 40 books, most recently, “The Most Good You Can Do.� His works have appeared in more than 30 languages. Mr. Cohen won multiple Emmy awards as a writer for “Late Night With David Letterman� and for 12 years wrote “The Ethicist� column for The New York Times Magazine. The library is at 65 Witherspoon Street. Visit www. princetonlibrary.org or call (609) 924-9529 for information. ———

16th District Voters Should Know Ciattarelli, Simon Have Backed Christie 100 Percent
To the editor: As the election season gets under way, I want to remind Princeton voters that this year we have the opportunity to unseat our two Republican state assembly representatives by voting for Democratic candidates Maureen Vella and Andrew Zwicker. Princeton and the rest of the 16th legislative district deser ve rep resentation that ref lects our values, not those of a right-wing governor. Jack Ciattarelli and Donna Simon have a 100 percent voting record with Chris Christie. They have supported Christie in cutting women’s health funding, blocking corruption reform at the Port Authority, and preventing property tax relief for struggling homeowners after Hurricane Sandy. Andrew Zwicker, as a Princeton University scientist, brings his experience of relying on evidence, not political ideology or rhetoric, in making decisions. Maureen Vella as a former judge looks at all sides of an issue before making a decision. Princeton deserves representatives who are independent thinkers. I urge residents to mark their calendars for November 3 and to vote for Zwicker and Vella for Assembly. DAN PReSToN Moore Street
Jack Ciattarelli and Donna Simon Have Worked Hard to Represent Newly Aligned District 16
To the editor: Unfortunately, over my years of public service, politics has grown more partisan. Nowhere was this more evident than a recent letter-to-the-editor submitted by Scotia W. MacRae [Town Topics, Sept. 2, “Did You Know That Three Republicans Represent Princeton in N.J. Legislature? ”] The letter underscores the unwillingness by some to open their hearts and minds to others simply because they don’t share the same party affiliation. Clearly demonstrating disrespect and intolerance, Ms. MacRae would seemingly lead one to believe that my fellow District 16 legislators and I have some type of hideous, deadly and contagious disease. Yes, it is true that for the past three and one-half years, Princeton has been represented by state legislators who are Republicans, me being one of them. Republicans, mind you, who have received endorsements from organized labor unions and pro-environment groups, as well as from business and taxpayer watchdog groups. The delegation, which includes Jack Ciattarelli and Donna Simon, has worked extremely hard to effectively represent the newly aligned District 16, including Princeton. We’ve been more than accessible and responsive to Princeton, putting progress before party in working closely with its local elected leadership on various issues important to the community. I can honestly say that, on issues specific to the environment, transportation, infrastructure, affordable housing and fiscal matters, we have worked to improve the quality of life in Princeton. each election cycle provides an opportunity for candidates and their supporters to distinguish themselves for integrity. Let us assertively compete, but let us also conduct campaigns that encourage, not discourage, fellow citizens. Most importantly, let us conduct ourselves in a way that demonstrates respect and tolerance. The alternative only serves to intensify the hyper-partisanship and polarization that gridlocks Washington and Trenton. SeNAToR CHRISToPHeR ‘KIP’ BATeMAN Somerville
To the editor: New Jersey Assemblypersons Donna Simon and Jack Ciattarelli have represented Legislative District 16 since 2012. I have been impressed with how they handle their legislative responsibilities. Their sincere interest in constituents’ concerns and achievements is more than impressive. There are few politicians – Assembly or otherwise – that take such pride in their district and the people who make up their constituency. Given that Legislative District 16 is highly diverse and there are varying opinions coming from all sides, Assemblypersons Simon and Ciattarelli handle complicated issues with tact, always seeking a logical, reasonable, middle ground approach. In a short period, they have proven time and again that they are absolutely qualified to represent the district and Princeton. Having Assemblypersons Donna Simon and Jack Ciattarelli re-elected on November 4 can only benefit our Princeton community. GeoRGe Fox Cedar Lane
Suggesting That Zones Could Be Established For Lawn Service Leaf Blowing and Mowing
To the editor: Regarding the problem of leaf blowing noise, I wonder if zones could be established as we have for leaf pick-up? A zone could have two designated days when lawn service blowing and mowing would be allowed. The rest of the week would be quiet. Residents who do their own yard work would be encouraged to do so on the designated days. CARoL RoTHBeRG Winant Road
early this year, the Princeton government began work on a Bicycle Master Plan. That is commendable, given our future of declining fossil fuel supplies. on the Princeton website, there is even a questionnaire for Princeton residents to print out and complete. But the questionnaire has no instructions for where and when to submit it! I have not found any other related web pages with such instructions. Indeed, the work done on the Master Plan appears to have had no public input. Is this another example of our local government discouraging or ignoring input from its constituents? Furthermore, there is a timeline graphic web page with a meeting scheduled for this month, but the date is not given. With this month almost half over, is the meeting announcement going to be on such short notice so that when nobody shows up, our leaders can claim a lack of public interest in developing a bicycle plan? There is now a NJDoT grant to Princeton of which a portion was allocated to bicycle planning. If the government can claim there is no interest, can the grant funds be shifted from bicycle plans to other items the government deems more important? I think it is important for local government to affirmative-

To the editor: New Jersey is such a partisan state. It is considered “blue” outside the state, but it’s a checker-board in-state with very red areas and very blue areas and darn few “swing” districts. It has been this way for a long time. Bipartisan cooperation, compromise and collaboration by politicians make progress possible. Not really as rare as most cynical voters think. New Jersey needs reasonable policies addressing real solutions to real problems. AARP supported helping family caregivers with the CARe Act signed into law by Gov. Christie last year. over the years, AARP supported new laws providing protections against unwanted telemarketing calls and predatory lending, identity theft, reforming the long-term care system, defending property tax relief programs from budget cuts… We win some, we lose some but we never stop advocating. Legislators need to work together to send reasonable bills to Gov. Christie’s desk before the end of the year. Pass the Secure Choice Savings Act which has strong bipartisan sponsorship to help small businesses help their employees save for retirement. Pass legislation to address the health insurance out-of-network issue. establish a rational, reasonable earned paid sick leave state-wide benefit and maybe even address property taxes.

Work That Thrives on Fire: Philip Levine, Painting and Power, Poetry and Jazz
O
n drives from Indiana to New York City before the Interstate, my parents took U.S. 40 east, which brought us into the hilly outskirts of Pittsburgh at night. It was the most vivid moment of the trip: the red-orange glow of steel mills against the dark sky, the smoke-hazed aura around the glow, the balmy summer air, the excitement of seeing that vision lighting up the sky. The moment was marked by the metallic scent of industry, like the aroma of pure power, which is what I seemed to be breathing again in “Iron and Coal, Petroleum and Steel: Industrial Art from the Steidle Collection” at the James A. Michener Art Museum. Of all the shows I’ve seen since the Paton|Smith|Della Penna-Fernberger Galleries opened in November 2009, this exhibit makes the most impressive use of the space, thanks in part to curator Kirsten Jensen’s decision to surround the art with walls of a deep dark blue. No wonder I felt so responsive: the effect is like seeing these works at night, the walls bringing out the dominant fireburst-in-darkness visual experience that recalled the Pittsburgh moment on the drive to New York. As it happens, the city of jazz is only a few steps away in the Pfundt Gallery, where the photographs of Herman Leonard bring the mid-20thcentury night club ambience of Manhattan to Doylestown. The Necessity of Art Another effective curatorial touch is the placement of Rockwell Kent’s Power... for the Wheels of Progress (1945) at the show’s entrance. The images that lie ahead of you, however inventive and pictorial and impressionistic, are essentially representative. They suggest visions. Kent’s creation of coal-driven Power is a vision. Painted it in 1945 for the Coal Institute, the giant beaming a path through the night with a magic lantern of coal harks back to the Art Deco style of the architectural and sculptural imagery embellishing Rockefeller Center. As suggested by the human-scale replica of the Promethean figure pictured in the cab of the engine it dwarfs, Kent’s giant is a glorified embodiment of workers like those in the coal mines and steel mills of “Industrial Art.” The image would have caught the eye of readers browsing magazines like The Saturday Evening Post, where it appeared as part of an ad campaign celebrating the coal industry. A post-war convergence of art and politics is implicit in Kent, an avowed Communist who said that “to be a true American a man must have the will to right our social wrongs” while calling for the unionization of artists on the model of the United Mine Workers: “Coal is to be sure a first necessity. Yet it is hardly realized what a necessity art is.” Blasting from Heaven Like the industrial glow I saw in the Pittsburgh sky, the works in an exhibit that covers both the active and passive meanings of “work” intrigued and intimidated me. As happened on that trip in my late teens, what I saw defied imagination. What could be said? I found a guide in the poetry of U.S. Poet Laureate Philip Levine (1933-2015), who lived and worked in industry, man-
ning a punch press at Chevrolet Gear and Axle and a jackhammer at Detroit Transmission. In “Coming Close,” after describing “shift after shift/hauling off the metal trays of stock,/bowing first, knees bent for a purchase,/then lifting with a gasp, the first word/of tenderness between the two of you,” he concludes, “You must feed her,/as they say in the language of the place./Make no mistake, the place has a language.” Word-pictures are certain to fall short of the originals in “Industrial Art,” so, in line with the idea that the place has a language, it may be wiser to stand back and let the title say it. My reaction to George Pearse Ennis’s Blowing Steel was typical. That crazed almost cartoonish emission of firey orange and pale blue spouting from the mouth of an oven as from the mouth of some fairytale ogre was steel? Gazing into Pierre Birckner’s Beehive Coke Ovens at Night, where the rich dark blue of the sky (picked up by the blue of the gallery walls) makes stun-
“glowed/as though a new sun rose there,/ but it was midnight and another shift/tooled the rolling mills.” Smoke as Poetry Of all the components that hold you as you go from work to work, smoke is the most suggestive. It’s a bit strange to be admiring all this hazy visual poetry that is in reality polluting and quite possibly destroying the planet. Levine writes, “Why is the air filled with smoke? Simple. We had work./ Work was something that thrived on fire, that without/fire couldn’t catch its breath or hang on for life.” Only a poet who’s been there could come up with the notion of work hanging on “for life.” Levine’s smoke is a world unto itself, where “the city was vanishing before noon” and “the light came from nowhere and went nowhere,” where the stories children tell of their parents are like “objects turned one way and then another/to catch the light, the light overflowing with smoke.”
ning contrast with the snowclad hills and the deep deep black of the sinister central structure, it’s possible to imagine an elaborate Blakean vision of the satanic mills over the simple fact of a real scene being painted by a long-lived artist (1878-1977) who chose to make that blue as blue can be, the black as black. For firey effects, you have Alfred H. Bennet’s Cinder Dump and Howard L. Warner’s Big Steel, among numerous others. There’s a German Expressionist quality to the faces in Henry Varnam Poor’s Miners on a Lift; the sheer storybook wonder of Molly Wheeler Wood Pitz’s magnificent Lime Kiln at Night; and the spirit of Monet haunting George Sotter’s Untitled (Steel Mills in Blast). But, in the end, I come back to Philip Levine, who experienced such sites and scenes first-hand and can give us lines like “the 8 o’clock whistles blasting from heaven,” or “the lights of Bessemer” that
Smoke and Jazz It seems Philip Levine is stealing the show. What can you do when a poet who lived the subject turns up in the middle of an art exhibit about steel and coal?—not to mention one about jazz. Although he was remembered in the New York Times after his death on Valentine’s Day 2015 as “A Poet of Grit, Sweat and Labor,” a “Whitman of the industrial heartland,” Levine also loved, lived, and wrote about jazz, recording poetry with a Fresno combo the year before he died. Anyone with knowledge of the night club life has to be aware that smoke is as essential to jazz as it is to “Industrial Art.” You can almost see the haze drifting from the smokestacks, trains, and blast furnaces of the big gallery into the nearby, smaller, more night-club-intimate one featuring the jazz photography of Herman Leonard (19232010), who has a weakness for the imagery

of “light overflowing with smoke.” In what may be his most famous work, he pictures 25-year-old Dexter Gordon, his tenor sax in his lap and a cigarette in his hand that has just produced a prodigious quantity of smoke (think Moby Dick at full spout, or a factory going full blast). Though the iconic shot of Gordon is not among those on view at the Michener, saxophonist James Moody and trumpeter Fats Navarro come bearing their own stylish smoke signals, the Moody Mood man smiling through the delicate haze while Navarro, eyes squeezed shut, is playing so hard, blowing steel, as it were, that the smoke seems to be rising from the valves of his instrument. There are two contrasting shots of Charlie Parker, one pensive and Buddha-like with the Metronome All-Stars, one beaming delightedly with “the other half of his heartbeat,” Dizzy Gillespie. “Call It Music,” Levine’s poem about Parker “going out forever on the breath of genius” shows the poet in both environments, industry and jazz, working at 19 “on the loading docks at Railway Express/coming day by day into the damaged body/of a man” while “Some days I catch a rhythm, almost a song/in my own breath,” the radio playing ‘Bird Flight,’ Parker in his California tragic voice fifty years ago, his faltering ‘Lover Man’ just before he crashed into chaos.” Billie Holiday appears with a backdrop of vinous shapes that suggest smoke while Bud Powell is shown smiling, not playing just sitting, with a sheaf of music on the piano. He’s also just sitting in Levine’s “On 52nd Street”: “Down sat Bud, raised his hands,/the Deuces silenced, the lights/ lowered, and breath gathered/for the coming storm. Then nothing,/not a single note.... The night’s/still there, just where it was, just/where it’ll always be without/its music. You’re still there too/holding your breath. Bud walked out.” To the City of Night So you go from that Pittsburgh moment, across Pennsylvania and through New Jersey to the Big Apple, where the music is waiting back in the day, at Birdland and Basin Street East, at the Royal Roost and the Open Door, The Five Spot and the Village Vanguard, and the Jazz Gallery. The Michener itself becomes a jazz venue of sorts at 3 p.m. on Sunday, September 20, when singer Beverly Owens and pianist Diane Goldsmith present “The Art of Sarah Vaughan.” “Herman Leonard: Jazz Portraits” will run through October 11. An event related to “Iron and Coal, Petroleum and Steel: Industrial Art from the Steidle Collection,” which ends October 25, is a guest lecture by Julianne Snider, the assistant director of the Earth and Mineral Sciences Museum & Art Gallery at Penn State, permanent home of the Collection, at 1 p.m. September 29. newly opened show is “Veils of Color: Juxtaposityions and Recent Work by Elizabeth Osborne,” which runs through November 15. —Stuart Mitchner

scheduling of the tours is well underway, and classes will start on September 14.” The 19 students who are not from the Princeton area are living with local families, but the long range goal is to return to a boarding school model. Founded in Columbus, Ohio in 1937 and moved to Princeton in 1950, the school for boys in grades four to eight was located on Lambert Drive until relocating to Plainsboro in 2013. The ABS choirs have performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the New York Philharmonic, among others. Boys spend a year in the Training Choir before being considered for the Concert Choir. ABS filed for bankruptcy last April following several years of financial struggles. After announcing that $350,000 was needed to keep the school going until the end of a shortened school year, the choral academy exceeded its fundraising goal by some $9,000. Mr. D’Avanzo thanked local organizations for providing space in recent months so that activities could continue. The annual summer camp was held at The Hun School, and rehearsals took place at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Princeton in preparation for a performance at the Tanglewood Music Festival on August 8. M r. D ’ Av a n z o ’s l e t t e r emphasizes that further fundraising is necessary to keep the school going. In order to reorganize under Chapter 11, ABS needs to demonstrate to the Court that the organization can operate successfully under a new plan. “That brings me to a critical appeal,” he said, adding that the 20152016 budget includes raising $950,000 of revenue from its Annual Fund. Many students require scholarship assistance, requiring over half a million dollars.
“You can be assured that the Board and the ABS staff have considered every possible cost-saving strategy consistent with prudent operation and the School’s mission: to succeed, achieving our $950,000 goal for the Annual Fund is essential.” More than $350,000 was raised “in a few short weeks” after the April filing for bankruptcy protection. “Simply put, to stay solvent on a month-by-month basis, we need to raise a significant portion of the $950,000 in the next three months — preferably sooner! We need to show the Court that we can operate our first semester without running a deficit. When we do that, we can start to put forward a formal plan for ABS’s reorganization and eventual emergence from Chapter 11.” The school has four tours scheduled along with annual concerts and a series of performances with the Philadelphia Orchestra next March. The Annual Fund appeal will start later this moneh, but Mr. D’Avanzo urges supporters to dig into their pockets as soon as they can. “Please give, and give generously, so that we can report to all of you (and to the Court) about more fundraising successes and build momentum for our reorganization.” —Anne Levin

The backpack initiative is Children’s Home Society, Jean and John, to found the Christine’s Hope for Kids an annual undertaking for Homefront, WomanSpace, organization in her honor. Celebrates Operation Backpack
The Christine’s Hope for Kids Foundation ( CHFK, founded on the principle that every child deserves t he cha nce to b e a k id regardless of the circumstances, has just completed its latest campaign in a string of events to celebrate its five-year anniversar y: Operation Backpack. The program was inspired by the reality that many children do not have the supplies or resources needed for the upcoming school year. The Foundation’s goal was to fill hundreds of backpacks w ith pencils, paper, notebooks, and additional supplies to distribute to local kids in need t hroughout Mercer County.
CHFK, but this year’s Operation Back Pack exceeded all expectations with a goal of 1,005 backpacks, almost double of last year. In conjunction w ith New Jersey Women in Banking, The JM Group of Princeton and Noto Insurance Agency, this was the Foundation’s largest backpack donation to date. E ach backpack contained not only basic supplies, but also rulers, calculators, binders, pencil cases, and a host of items in order to make each child feel special in addition to feeling prepared. At the close of this summer’s Operation Backpack, the 1,005 backpacks were shared w ith 10 different agencies for distribution to indiv idual children :
One Simple Wish, Mill Hill Child Development Center, Trenton Soup Kitchen, Princeton Human Services, Pennrose Social Services, Princeton YMCA Child Resources, and Resource Family Advisory Board — Child and Family Services. Christine’s Hope for Kids was founded to continue the legacy of the late Christine Gianacaci, a 22-yearold Lynn University student from Hopewell. Christine had a passion for help ing children in need and was fulfilling that passion on a Januar y 2010 mis sion to Haiti when her life was tragically taken by a catastrophic ear thquake. Her determined pursuit of spreading hope to children worldwide led her parents,
The Foundation looks to further Christine’s legacy and maintain momentum in the years to come. CHFK continues to celebrate its five-year anniversary through charitable giving, and the next event will be The Sixth Annual CHFK Golf Event, a tournament to be held on September 28, at the Springdale Golf Club. The Five for Five campaign is also still in effect; with a $100 donation, donors will receive five celebratory notecards, each of which represents a child in need. For more information on upcoming events and other ways to support Christine’s Hope for Kids, visit the Foundation’s website, www.christineshope. org.

CUSP Presents Edna St. Vincent Millay Song Cycle
CUSP (The Contemporary Undercurrent of Song Project) begins its inaugural season on Saturday, September 19 at 7:30 p.m. at All Saints’ Episcopal Church with the Princeton premiere of Renascence, a 40-minute song cycle for four voices and piano, based on a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay. The piece, composed by Martin Hennessy, is a journey through self, death, rebirth, and spiritual awareness. The soprano serves as central narrator and the other singers voice the aspect of her imagination. Renascence will be performed by local musicians: Alexandra Porter (soprano), Meagan Lee Hodson (mezzo), Christopher Hodson (tenor), Scott Purcell (baritone) and JJ Penna (piano). Each singer will also present a contemporary set to open the concert including works by Andrew David, John Bucchino, Samuel Barber, and a selection from Jeremy Howard Beck’s new opera, The Long Walk. All Saints’ Episcopal Church is located at 16 All Saints’ Road in Princeton. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students. For more information, visit www.contemporaryunder current.com.

90 Minutes in Heaven
CINEMA REVIEW
Film of Bestselling Memoir Recounts Pastor’s Near-Death Experience
T
raveling Pastor Don Piper was thinking about having his own congregation on his way home from a Christian convention when fate intervened. His car was crushed so badly by a tractor trailer that he was declared dead on the spot by first responders who couldn’t find a pulse. Since there was no hurry to extract him from the twisted wreckage, he was still lying there over an hour later when a minister (Michael Harding), who was passing by the accident scene, decided to stop and pray for the repose of his soul. But upon approaching the auto, instead of a corpse, he found the supposedly deceased pastor to be very much alive. In fact, despite his considerable loss of blood, Pastor Piper was faintly singing a Gospel spiritual. A rescue team with the jaws of life was immediately summoned and he was soon extracted and rushed to the hospital. Although he fought to survive for the sake of his wife (Kate Bosworth) and their three children (Hudson Meek, Bobby Batson, and Elizabeth Hunter), Don was actually undecided about whether he wanted to live or die. It seems that during his near-death experience on the
side of the road, he’d briefly entered heaven. There, he not only experienced an unparalleled feeling of unending bliss, but also had reunions with a number of dead loved ones, including his great-grandmother (Sallye McDougald Hooks) and two childhood friends (Matthew Bauman and Trevor Allen Martin). By comparison, being back on Earth was relatively painful, given the 34 operations he needed to undergo over the next several months to fix torn muscles, disfigurement, broken bones, and shattered disks. Thanks to the power of prayer, Pastor Piper ultimately recovered. But rather than open his own church, he wrote a memoir that became a bestseller that describes his entrance into Heaven as well as his subsequent resurrection. Directed by Michael Polish (The Astronaut Farmer) 90 Minutes in Heaven is a modern parable even though the title gives away the ending. Very Good (★★★). Rated PG-13 for an intense car accident and graphic images. Running time: 121 minutes. Studio: Giving Films. Distributor: Samuel Goldwyn Films. —Kam Williams

IT’S A MIRACLE — HE’S STILL ALIVE: After the first responders could not find a pulse, they declared Pastor Piper (Hayden Christensen) as dead and left the scene after calling for a crew to deal with the disposal of the body and the wreckage. An hour or so later, a passing minister stopped to pray for the dead occupant, and to his surprise found that the Pastor was alive. Firemen were immediately summoned and, using the jaws of life, he was extracted from the wreckage and rushed to a hospital where he subsequently recovered.

Hoping to Regain Championship Form after 5-5 Season, Princeton Football Opening 2015 Campaign At Lafayette
S
lipping to fourth place in the Ivy League standings last fall after sharing the title in 2013 with Harvard, the Princeton University football team headed to Asia this spring to begin a hoped-for climb up the league standings. The Tigers accepted an invitation to face the Kwansei Gakuin University Fighters, the national college champion of Japan in the “Legacy Bowl” at Kincho Stadium, in Osaka, Japan. It was the second meeting between the two programs this century; Taylor Northrop’s late field goal helped the Tigers rally for a 27-25 victory when the two teams met in March of 2001. In the 2015 contest, which took place on March 21, the Tigers rolled to an impressive 36-7 victory. As Princeton head coach Bob Surace reflected on the experience at the program’s recently-held media day, he saw the trip as a critical bonding opportunity for his squad. “When were asked to go, we connected with a few of the guys who went the previous time, and every single guy talked about how it brought the team together,” said Surace, who guided Princeton to a 5-5 overall record and 4-3 Ivy League mark last fall in his fifth season at the helm of the program. “It was a great part of their experience, maybe the best thing they did in their four years at Princeton. It was terrific; it helped us come together. When you are thrown into a culture, none of us, not one guy on our team spoke Japanese and very few of the Japanese players spoke English, maybe one or two at each position group. When you are not in your own element, it forces you to bond.” Surace was heartened by his team’s terrific performance on the field in the decisive win over Kwansei Gakuin. “It made us feel really good about this group that they were ready to go,” said Surace. “They understood, when it was football time, it was football time. When it was being with the Zen guy or the sumo wrestlers or whatever else, you could have fun, you could enjoy yourself.” While Princeton lost two stellar quarterbacks, Connor Michelsen and Quinn Epperly, the Bushnell Cup 2013 Ivy Offensive Player of the Year, to graduation, Surace is happy about his quarterback situation as junior Chad Kanoff, senior Kedric Bostic (2-for-4 passing for 17 yards in 2014) and sophomore John Lovett are all battling for snaps. “Kedric, John, and Chad are getting better everyday,” said Surace, a 1990 Princeton alum who starred at center for the Tigers, noting that Kanoff is one of the best pure passers he has seen in his time around the program. “I love their urgency, I love their tempo. They have never been thrust into that leadership position and the quarterback is automatically almost a leader because of what they have to do and they have handled it. They are competing against each other and with each other but also the way Connor
and Quinn did, having a friendship when they are outside of the practice field.” Offensive coordinator James Perry, a former star quarterback at Brown who spends a lot of time working with the signal callers, shares Surace’s enthusiasm for the trio. “Right now the quarterback group is playing very well and practicing very well,” asserted Perry. “All three of them coming out of spring knew what they needed to work on and have a done a very good job this summer to accomplish that. In order to play as fast as we want to play, we need quarterbacks who are athletic no matter what. Even if their strength is throwing the ball, you have got to be in great shape and you have got to be able to move.” In Perry’s view, the Tiger running backs should be able to move the chains. The corps of ball carrier includes senior DiAndre Atwater (484 yards rushing in 2014), senior Dre Nelson (133 yards rushing), junior Joe Rhattigan (140 yards rushing) and junior A.J. Glass (120 yards rushing). “We have a veteran group of running backs; we have two seniors with Di Andre and Dre, who are practicing at a fantastic level,” said Perry. “We need guys who can run, play fast, play physical. It is a demanding way to play and those running backs are really, really practicing hard. We have a lot of guys who have played football at that position right down the line, with Joey Rhattigan and A.J. Glass.” Former All-Ivy center Surace likes his veteran group of offensive linemen, which features senior Spenser Huston and sophomore Mitchell Sweigart at tackle, seniors Jack Woodall and Britt Colcolough at guard, and senior Tom Yetter at center. “Those guys are really playing well together,” said Surace. “Tom Yetter had a great offseason and we said let’s look and see what he can do at center and he has really stepped up at the center spot and that was the one where we had some concerns. We moved Britt inside; he was All-Ivy, he was a really good tackle. I am hoping we can keep him at guard because it is a difference maker. Against the best defensive lines like Harvard and Dartmouth, we didn’t get the push we wanted. Britt is a guy who can knock people off the ball.” The return of 6’4, 245-pound senior co-captain Seth DeValve (19 catches for 243 yards in 2014) at wide receiver should make a big difference for the Tigers. “Seth is an incredible player, an incredible worker, and you can’t have a better captain,” said Perry, whose receiver group will also include junior split end James Frusciante (36 catches for 334 yards) and junior tight end Scott Carpenter (20 catches for 236 yards). “He is in shape, he runs, he works. He is a very unselfish kid so his injury last year hurt us a lot. He is a rare person in this league, you just don’t

last year. We had the talent, we had the ability, we just couldn’t put it together. The biggest thing is that we had so many missed assignments and mental errors. We need to have that whole defensive approach where everyone knows or at least has an idea what the person behind them is doing so we know how to fill gaps and we know where our support is so we can correct it on the field immediately.” In Arends’ view, the Tigers took a step in the right direction this spring with a trip to Japan that saw Princeton post a 36-7 victory over the Kwansei Gakuin University Fighters, the national college champion of Japan, in the “Legacy Bowl” in Osaka, Japan “In spring ball, we had s om e t h i n g to work for which was awesome,” said Arends. “We had to prepare for a game and that just helps significantly. I think the whole attitude of spring ball changed dramatically and I think that is what made it more successful than in the past.” In the view of Princeton head coach Bob Surace, moving Arends up the field should be a significant plus for the Tiger defense, “We got Matt closer to the ball which I think will pay dividends,” said Surace. “His best plays have been closer to the line so I think he is going to give us an athletic, physical presence there.” As Princeton prepares for its season opener at Lafayette on September 19, it has been enjoying a productive preseason camp that should pay dividends as the fall unfolds. “It has been going well, we have been playing fast for the most part,” said Arends. “We have had a high energy, I think the guys are just ready to go. We changed up the schedule for camp, which has made camp much more efficient. From that perspective, we have been able to fly around and have more fun with it.” Arends is hoping to have a f u n senior season as Princeton looks to regain its championship form of 2013, when it went 8-2 overall and 6-1 Ivy to share the league title with Harvard. “We need consistency on the field and I think the other thing is we got to keep our focus,” asserted Arends. “There would be times when we would just lose it in games last year and you would see the momentum change.” -Bill Alden

Host ing Delaware last Thursday evening, the Princeton Universit y women’s soccer team dug an early hole, surrendering a goal less than five minutes into the contest. Treating the tally as a wake-up call, Princeton relentlessly pushed forward the rest of the half. The Tigers hit two crossbars and generated several opportunities but didn’t cash in as they trailed 1-0 at the half. Over the next 45 minutes, Princeton threw everything it had at the Blue Hens, outshooting Delaware 13-4 but all that effort proved fruitless as 1-0 proved to be the final score. W h i le P r i n ce ton h e ad coach Sean Driscoll was disappointed by the result, which marked t he t hird straight loss for the Tigers, he had no qualms with the fighting spirit displayed by his players. “We really gave every bit we had,” said Driscoll. “I said to the kids at the end of the game you can’t argue with the work rate, the intensity, everything was wonderful, they really gave a supreme effort. Dr iscoll ack nowledged that the team has suffered some occasional lapses in concentration. “My biggest message to them was had they done that from the get-go they would not have been in the position in the first place,” said Driscoll. “We always work hard but we don’t always play with a sense of urgency and there is a difference; there is that extra little inch they could put in in terms of putting people under pressure. There is just more that they can do and the focus for the whole 90 minutes has to always be there. That’s what we have been talking about lately and it has not happened every single game.” Three days later at Villanova, Princeton showed focus from the get-go as Natalie Larkin scored 12 minutes into the game to get things rolling as the Tigers posted a 3-1 win over the Wildcats. Tyler Lussi and Ni-
cole Loncar also scored first half goals as Princeton improved to 3-3. Based on Princeton’s performance against Villanova, it appears that Driscoll’s message got through to his players. “We have to be resilient; we have to have a little more bite to our game,” added Driscoll, whose team hosts LaSalle on September 16 and William and Mary on September 20. “We move the ball very nicely and we are technically very good players. We tend to look very nice but then when it breaks down and we must get into the nitty gritty of it and make differences inside our 18 or the opposing 18, we have been losing that battle. It is not from a lack of creating opportunities, but at some times it just comes down to sheer will and guts and sometimes pretty goes out the window and it needs to be a little ugly to get a goal.” -Bill Alden
PU Sports Roundup Tiger Field Hockey Posts 1-1 Weekend
Junior star Cat Caro played well as the 20th-ranked Princeton University fi eld hockey team posted a 1-1 weekend, topping Bucknell 5-1 on Saturday and then losing 4-3 at No. 18 Delaware a day later. In the victory at Bucknell, Caro tallied a goal and an assist as Princeton jumped out to a 4-0 halftime lead and cruised from there in earning its first victory of the season. Freshman Natalie Catalino scored the first two goals of her career to help the Tigers prevail. Against Delaware, Caro contributed a goal to help Princeton build a 3-2 lead early in the second half but the undefeated Blue Hens responded with two unanswered goals to earn the victory. Princeton, now 1-3, will look to keep on the winning track when it hosts American University on September 20.

Taking Lead from Battle-Tested Senior Class, PHS Girls’ Soccer Showing Maturity on Field With the Princeton High girls’ soccer team boasting a slew of battle-tested players, Val Rodriguez sees a maturity around her squad. “We have a great core of returners, we had 16 return from our 20 and we picked up two, one of which is a senior,” said second year PHS head coach Rodriguez, who guided PHS to a 9-7-2 record and the second round of the state sectionals in her debut campaign last fall. “We just have a ton of leadership out there. We have three senior captains, Haley Bodden, Taylor Lis, and Gaby Deitch, who have been a good force for the team since their freshmen year. Apart from them being leaders, everyone is taking on that role, realizing you can be a leader without that title.” PHS is depending on one of those seniors, Lis, to
take a leading role offensively. “Taylor is looking phenomenal and I really thought the forward spot was going to be her spot this year but she is really dedicated to the center mid and she does a great job there,” said Rodriguez. “She is good no matter where I put her. She is a good leader and stepped up big time last year.” Another senior, Serena DiBianco, could emerge as a key weapon for the Little Tigers. “DiBianco is working on her finishing; her speed is top notch,” said Rodriguez. “Her first touch is improving a lot; her composure on her finishing is getting a lot better.” Senior star and tri-captain Bodden should provide some good finishing from the midfield.
“I am looking for some goals out of her; she is looking great,” asserted Rodriguez. “She has committed to TCNJ so her head is in the right place. She is really excited about that. Toward the end of last year she was banged up with a hamstring. She is solid right now.” The rest of the midfield features sophomore Devon Lis, sophomore Colette Marciano, and Deitch. “Devon Lis, Colette Marciano, and Gaby Deitch are some of the people that are going to get in the mix,” added Rodriguez. “They will all rotate through there.” The PHS defensive rotation will include two juniors, Zoe Tesone and Jackie Girouard, along with sophomore Abaigeal Ryan. “Zoe Tesone is going from center mid to sweeper; she is doing a real good job,” said Rodriguez. “We have t wo outside backs who are doing really well in Jackie Girouard and Abaigeal Ryan, they both saw a lot of minutes last year.” Rodriguez is looking for senior goalie Rachel Eberhart to do well in her final campaign. “She has got the talent so I am hoping for a big season,” said Rodriguez. In order to have a big season, the Little Tigers need to keep their shape at both ends. “We have to maintain our balance on the field in the formations that we are going to be looking at this year,” said Rodriguez, whose team was slated to get its season underway by hosting Robbinsville on September 15 and playing at Hamilton on September 17. “As long as we maintain balance on the field at all times and are in support of each other, we are going to be able to move the ball very, very well, both attacking and defending as a team.” -Bill Alden

PHS Football Falls to Hamilton 10-7 in Opener, As Key Miscues Negate Superb Defensive Effort As it rolled to an 8-2 campaign last fall, the Princeton High football team was held to seven points just once. Being held to its lowest output of 2014, though, didn’t keep the Little Tigers from winning as they edged visiting Ewing 7-0 in that contest last September, delighting a throng on hand for the program’s first night game at home. Starting the 2015 season last Saturday afternoon at Hamilton, PHS was limited to seven points but once again looked like it might pull out a win as it led the Hornets 7-3 midway through the fourth quarter. But with Hamilton putting together an 83-yard scoring march that lasted nearly six minutes and culminated with a 17-yard touchdown gallop by Dayzjohn Dunston with 5:09 remaining in regulation, the Little Tigers came up short this time, falling 10-7. In reflecting on the setback, PHS head coach Charlie Gallagher acknowledged that some critical miscues doomed his squad. “I give a lot of credit to Hamilton, we are playing on the road and we can’t afford to commit the turnovers and that is what we did,” said Gallagher. “I think we had three turnovers; we give the ball away on a punt return and we had a couple of bad picks. We did get a fumble recovery late in the game and we can’t turn it into anything of a decent drive so that hurts us.” PHS squandered a valiant defensive effort that saw the Little Tigers stifle the Hamilton passing game and yield just three points over the first 43 minutes of the contest. “Defense played a great game,” asserted Gallagher. “The defense plays hard, the positive is the defense right now.” The PHS offense had its moments as senior quar-
terback Dave Beamer completed 10-of-17 passes for 133 yards while classmate Rory Helstrom rushed for 55 yards on 13 carries, highlighted by a six-yard touchdown dash in the second quarter as the Little Tigers took a 7-0 lead. “I liked the play of our interior line guys, especially early in the game,” said Gallagher. “Noah Ziegler, Matt Toplin and Ethan Guerra did a great job. Rory is out there for the first time, he missed all three scrimmages but he played a hell of a game.” The Little Tigers worked some younger players into the game, getting a particularly good effort from sophomore Jakob Green, who made four catches for 66 yards and capably han-
dled the kicking duties for the Little Tigers. “We have got some young guys out there,” said Gallagher. “Jakob Green is a nice player for us. He has got a big leg, he did a nice job as a wideout. He is a solid tackler at the free safety spot so we are happy with him. He is a sophomore, there is a lot of promise with him.” With PHS playing at Ewing (1-0) on September 18, Gallagher is looking for a more solid performance from his squad. “We need a better effort next week against Ewing because we are on the road again,” said Gallagher. “We just can’t commit the turnovers like we did today. We have to move the ball. We are going to the drawing board. We will look at the film, correct our mistakes and get back for next week.” -Bill Alden

Displaying its skill, the Princeton Day School boys’ s o c c e r te a m d om i n ate d possession from the opening whistle last Friday as it hosted the George School (Pa.). But despite keeping the ball in its offensive third for most of the first half hour of the contest, PDS had nothing to show for its industry as the teams were locked in a scoreless draw. The Panthers generated a number of scoring chances that just missed and senior star Isaac Rosenthal felt a breakthrough was coming. “ We c a m e o u t r e a l l y strong,” said Rosenthal. “We played really well as a team, we kept our shape. Although things weren’t dropping for us, we still dominated the possession.” With just over seven minutes left in the half, Rosenthal came through with a strong effort, soaring above the George back line to deftly head a corner kick from Donovan Davis into the back of the net. While Rosenthal’s moment of brilliance drew cheers from teammates and fans alike, he saw the tally as a group effort. “On that corner, I saw it coming in and I just timed my run and aimed for the upper 90 and got it in,” recalled Rosenthal. “But it was more our team scored that goal because we all worked together so well. We all made that happen so it is all to my team; we played excellent.” The Panthers continued to work well the rest of the day and controlled play on the way to a 1-0 triumph. In reflecting on the win, which improved PDS to 2-0, Rosenthal was pleased with how the squad took care of business defensively. “The less goals we can concede, the easier it is for us to win games because one goal can win the game as we
saw today,” said Rosenthal. “If you don’t concede any goals and you score one, that is all you need. We didn’t slow down in the second half, we kept it strong the whole game. All three of our lines, the defense, midfield, and forwards work together as a unit.” Rosenthal and classmates are trying to set the tone for the Panthers this fall. “We have been playing together for four years, it is eight strong seniors and that definitely helps with our team chemistry,” said Rosenthal, whose fellow seniors on the squad include Chris Chai, Connor Fletcher, Kevin Hagan, Noam Jacoby, Amir Melvin, Ben Multak and Peter Sanderson. “You can definitely see it on the field.” As one of the more experienced players on the squad, Rosenthal is looking to positively influence team chemistry. “I feel I am trying to be a leader on and off the field, I try to get everybody up,” said Rosenthal. “I don’t want a negative. It is an all positive attitude where we help each other out. I want us to be a strong unit so we all pick each other up.” PDS head coach Malcolm Murphy was not surprised that Rosenthal came through a strong effort on the game winner against George. “Isaac has been a great leader; he went through the summer, keeping everything intact with the team,” said Murphy. “He is getting into it more now, he is understanding his role and responsibility of where he plays on the field. He is dominating very well at the moment. He understands the tactics and has got great energy for the team.” Murphy liked the way his squad dominated possession. “We are a good posses-
sion team; we have got to try and learn how to break down the opposition lines a little quicker,” said Murphy, whose team topped South Hunterdon 4-3 on September 8 in its season opener. “It was to start from the back, keeping the ball and not giving the oppositions not many chances and see where we went from there. I was very happy with the way we moved the ball. We were energetic, we were composed.” PDS’ 2-0 start has Murphy ent hus e d ab out h is squad’s prospects. “I am happy with everybody, we have a good group,” said Murphy. “You can see that it is a large group and that puts emphasis on the idea that if you are play ing well, you are going to stay in. If you get an opportunity to go in and get a spot, hold onto it, because this isn’t a bad squad at all.” The team’s senior class is doing well as it looks to produce a special final campaign. “They are a great group, half of them start and we have two or three coming off the bench,” said Murphy. “Hopefully by year’s end, I would love to see all eight seniors play. That is in their hands. They have done very well for us so far, giving us some great years of service and hopefully we can pull on that all the way to the end of the year.” In Murphy’s view, PDS has pulled together nicely in the early going. “Early on, it was too many individuals; I don’t ask them to compromise their beliefs but just work as team units,” said Murphy, whose team plays at Hamilton on September 18 and at Hopewell Valley on September 19. “We should be able to manage with it and I think t h at i s w h at t h e y h ave shown game by game. If we can stay disciplined behind the ball and counter and do the right things, we will be in with a chance at the game.” Rosenthal, for his part, believes the Panthers have the chance to do some special things this fall. “I am definitely feeling really confident, we have been training for a couple of weeks now,” said Rosenthal, who is planning to play Div ision III college soccer next fall. “We have been working on our defense, that is what is really helping us out right now. Once we can defend it, gain possession and attack, we can score some goals and win these games.” -Bill Alden
Putting Rough 2014 Campaign in Rear View Mirror, Hun Boys’ Soccer Looking Forward to Fresh Start For the Hun School boys’ soccer team, the 2015 season couldn’t come soon enough. After enduring a tough 4-14-1 campaign last fall, Hun is excited to have a fresh start. “We are star ting from scratch again and I think they have really bought into that,” said Hun head coach Pat Quirk, whose team gets its 2015 season underway this week by play ing at Morristown-Beard on September 15 and at the Life Center Academy on September 18. “They are ready to go on the practice field. It is all competition; it is all trying to make the guy next to them better.” The Raiders aren’t starting from scratch, though, when it comes to experience as the squad features a large core of returners. “We have got a lot of pieces that work well together; we are putting them together and kind of moving guys around,” said Quirk, noting that team only graduated one player, Tucker Stevenson, from its 2014 starting lineup. “I feel like we have more depth this year. This senior class is a strong class, three of them have been on the team since their freshman year, M.J. Cobb, Alex Semler and Devin Ducharme. The junior class has gotten much stronger and better.” Hun is moving one of its stronger players, Cobb, up the field to help offensive production where he will be paired with newcomer Michael Campbell. “M.J. Cobb has always played outside back for us and we stuck him at forward for scrimmages,” said Quirk. “He scored a goal in the Allentown scrimmage and he is starting to get more comfortable in that position. He plays like an outside wing guy, he is fast and he is strong on the ball. We have a new sophomore Michael Campbell, who plays club and is going to do well.” Junior Pat Nally figures to do well at the top of the Hun midfield. “I think Pat is going to step up pretty big this year,” asserted Quirk. “We have been toying with the idea of having him play up top but he likes the ball at his feet so in the end he will probably stay in the middle and be a distributor and still score off of that.” The rest of the midfield features a nice mix of veterans and newcomers. “We have Connor Hufer
back and we also have a PG named Ricardo Picon who has come in and is playing a little bit there along with junior Gunnar Schellscheidt and a new junior Jake O’D owd,” adde d Q u irk. “Those guys are rotating right now, trying to figure out who plays best with each other.” Quirk likes the way his defensive unit is playing together. “Right now, it is Semler and Chris Andrews, as center backs,” said Quirk. “James Nicholas, a junior, has been there in the back and then we have two sophomores that we have been rotating in and out, Louis Bishop and Tobi Sonaike, who is new to the team. Having experienced guys in the middle is always key to your defense. They have been teaching the younger guys. They are going to be good at the end. It is coming
together; we are excited.” At goalie, junior Logan Leppo has been looking good, benefitting from experience he gained in 2014. “Logan got tossed into the fire at the start of last year; he has worked incredibly hard in the offseason,” added Quirk. “He worked on his reaction skills; he can get to pretty much anything in the goal. He is being more of a vocal leader in the back. The guys are trusting him.” In Quirk’s view, the players need be vocal and trust each other all over the field to get back on the winning track. “I think our communication is huge for us and then playing as a team,” said Quirk. “Defending as a unit, that is our theme for the year. We have to hunt together; in order for us to be successful we need to have each other’s back.” -Bill Alden

While the Hun School field hockey team boasts plenty of depth, Kathy Quirk is still figuring out the best way to utilize her resources. “We had 52 girls come out for preseason; there are a lot of girls but I have a lot of inexperienced players at the varsity level,” said Hun head coach Quirk, who guided Hun to an 8-11 record last fall. “We will work through it, we are working hard. I am just hoping that we are going to be able to step up and fill those holes that we lost last year and just move on.” Quirk is depending on junior Julie Fassl to step up at forward. “I moved her back to a mid for a period of time but now I have got her back on the line again,” said Quirk of Fassl. “She brings a spark, she is quick and she likes to go to the cage. She has a good, hard drive.” Hun has other options at for ward including senior Gabrielle Cifelli, sophomore Julia Revock, junior Kate Davis, senior Tatiana Swain and senior Kate Consoli. “Gabrielle Cifelli and Julia Revock are returning,” added Quirk. “We have Kate Davis, who is new to the varsity this year and played JV last year. Another one on forward line is Tatiana Swain. I am not sure about Kate Consoli, she may be on the forward line or she may go back and play defense for us as a sweeper. She sees the field well and is able to direct and move kids around.” In the midfield, battle-tested Maura Kelly should keep things moving. “She is a senior and she will probably move into the center of the field,” said Quirk of Kelly. “She has one year of experience, she is really working hard. She is trying to move the ball and be that transition person from defense to offense.” Quirk is depending on two veterans, junior Delia Lawver and senior Mariesa Cay to provide stability in the middle of the field. “Delia L aw ver w ill be starting for us,” said Quirk, who will also use junior newcomer C. J. Mozeika in the midfield. “Mariesa Cay was on varsity last year; she is looking for a lot more playing time this year. She has come back in better shape. I am look-

ing for some big things from her.” Hun is looking for big things from Kristina Sickmuller, a post-graduate from South Africa. “To say she knows the game is an understatement, she is going to be a real key player for us,” said Quirk. “She has beautiful stick work; she has played at a very high level down there. She is a little flashy; I think she is going to help us and anchor our defense. She is going to play center back for us and do a lot of running. She is strong, she knows the game, and she does a lot of talking. She gets the kids to pass the ball back and up.” The Raiders return two other defensive anchors in junior Sophia Albanese and senior Charlotte Stout. “Sophie Albanese will be on the back line along with Charlotte Stout, both of them are returning starters from last year,” said Quirk, who will also be using sophomore Helena Hemberger, senior Alexis Goeke, senior senior Sierra Hessinger, and Meghan Ward on defense. “Both of them are very strong, Sophie does a great job of getting the ball out
and up the field. Charlotte does a great job of being in the goal cage and saving goals.” Quirk is confident that senior Shannon Dargan can fill the void in the cage left by four-year starting goalie Reina Kern, who is now playing at Penn. “I think she is ready to step up,” said Quirk. “She is making progress and she works hard everyday.” I n Q u i r k ’s v i e w, h e r squad’s success this fall will come down to some critical intangibles. “They all need to have the desire and then they have to believe they can do it,” said Quirk, whose team gets its 2015 campaign underway this week by hosting Springside Chestnut Hill Academy (Pa.) on September 16 and Pennington on September 17 before playing at WW/PS on September 19. “If I put you out on the field, you have to say OK, she must believe in me. It is about opportunity, desire, and belief. I am hoping that we will have a good season. Everyone is working hard, the key to success is hard work.” -Bill Alden
MOVING FORWARD: Hun School field hockey player Julie Fassl patrols the field in action last season. Hun is looking for junior Fassl to be a catalyst on the forward line this season.

Obituaries
disabilities in Mercer County. Since her retirement she has happily participated in the Enable, Inc. recreational day program, where she volunteered with Meals on Wheels. Patricia loved people, especially her family. She had a great sense of humor and was always up for a good party. Patricia loved to travel, near and far, to help in the kitchen, to do art projects and to knit. She will be remembered as a person who met life’s challenges with a smile on her face and love in her heart. Patricia was predeceased by her devoted parents, Joseph and Elizabeth O’Malley, both of whom were instrumental in the establishment of Mercer ARC. Patricia is a direct descendent of Richard Warren and Edward Fuller both of whom landed in Plymouth on the Mayflower in 1620. Her great-great-grandfather, Francis M. Shaw, who fought for the Union, kept a diary during his incarceration in Andersonville Prison during the Civil War. The diary is on display at the War College in Carlisle, Pa.
