Huntington housing group gets $100,000 in federal funding By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com One Huntington organization got some major help from federal friends earlier this summer. The Huntington Housing Authority, a group that provides safe, affordable and decent housing to low-income, disabled, elderly and family households received more than $100,000 in federal funding from the joint efforts of Senator Chuck Schumer (D) and Senator Kristen Gillibrand (D). “We were relieved to learn that the Capital Fund Program grant will continue to assist the families we serve, and who call Huntington home,” Siela Bynoe, management analyst at the housing authority, said in an email. Bynoe said the funding is crucial to the success of the work the group does. “The HHA receives 30 percent of the family’s adjusted income in monthly rent,” she said. “Therefore, the Capital Fund Grant helps the HHA meet operational expenses and invest in the improvement of the dwelling units.” The funds were allocated through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Public Housing Capital Fund. Schumer and Gillibrand said the

funding will help the housing authority develop, finance and modernize its public housing facilities. “Having a roof over your head is one of life’s basic necessities, so we must do everything we can to help provide those truly in need with a decent and affordable place to live,” Schumer said in a statement. “This federal funding will help support affordable housing initiatives throughout New York that assist needy families, the elderly and persons with disabilities to find an affordable place to live.” Bynoe detailed what the $101,837 could do. “The Capital Fund Program Grant will enable the HHA to paint units, replace flooring and upgrade hot water heaters in the aging units,” she said. “These enhancements will ensure that our families continue to live in safe conditions.” Gillibrand said she hopes to see more help like this in the future. “We need to invest more federal funds to help more low-income families … in New York with access to affordable and safe housing,” she said in a statement. “These resources are vital for vulnerable communities and I will continue to do everything I can in the Senate to make sure that all New Yorkers have the opportunity to reach their full potential.” photo from Huntington Housing authority

Huntington groups, leaders work together to battle hunger By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com Huntington Town Councilwoman Tracey Edwards (D), a Huntington grocery store and many other local groups recently made it their mission to help stock the kitchen at a local children’s organization. Tri Community and Youth Agency, a not-for-profit organization that offers educational, recreational, social, cultural, athletic, counseling and advocacy programs for the town’s youth spanning from South Huntington to Cold Spring Harbor, noticed an issue with food shortage among its young attendees. Edwards said she was told that 80 children were receiving meals while attending Tri CYA programs during the week, but were pressed for food during the weekends when they were home. Edwards reached out to a network of organizations that responded quickly and were eager to help. “This is an example of what we can do when we all work together on a common goal,” Edwards said in an event announcing the donations at the Stop & Shop on Jericho Turnpike in Huntington. “Thank you to Stop & Shop and all the service organizations in our community.” Responding to a call to action from Edwards, a large roster of community-based organizations and the Huntington Stop &

community members stand with the baskets of food donations raised for tri cya. Shop store mobilized to gather food and donate it to help the 80 kids enrolled in the Tri CYA program. “Our children and their families are most appreciative of Stop & Shop’s assistance,” said Debbie Rimler, (regional director) executive director of Tri CYA. “I am very grateful that all these groups have banded together to address food insecurity over the weekends. This donation will make a

huge difference in many households and for many youths. Thank you so much.” The participating organizations said it was their pleasure to get involved. “It is our privilege to lend assistance to those in the Huntington community who make sure that children are cared for,” said Cindy Carrasquilla, manager of public relations and community relations for Stop & Shop said in a statement. “Stop & Shop is

pleased that our efforts can provide food and nourishment to youngsters in need.“ The grocery chain donated milk, cream cheese, butter, vegetables, fresh fruit and kid favorites such as hot dogs, soup, macaroni, ravioli, Lunchables, Pop-Tarts and juice. Huntington is not alone in a need for more food to feed our residents. According to Feeding America’s most recent hunger study, 39 percent of Long Islanders who receive emergency food are children under 18 years old. Feeding America is a nonprofit organization that works as a nationwide network of more than 200 food banks feeding more than 40 million people. “Summer hunger is a serious issue here on Long Island,” said Robin Amato, chief development officer of Long Island Cares, Inc. “Moving forward we will be talking to the Tri CYA about utilizing our children’s breakfast food trucks to ensure that these children have nutritious weekend meals all year round.” Other organizations and companies that donated food include American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244; the Boy Scouts of America, Suffolk County Girl Scouts, Huntington Community First Aid Squad, Huntington Public Library, South Huntington Public Library, Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce, YMCA of Huntington, NAACP, Huntington Station Business Improvement District, and more.

Future of health care in NY in flux after federal bill dies in U.S. Senate By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com

File photo by kevin redding

U.s. sen. Chuck schumer from New york was among the strongest opponents of the GoP-backed bill to repeal obamacare. tee, would establish The New York Health Act, to create a single-payer health care system. A single-payer system requires a singlepayer fund, which all New Yorkers would pay into to cover health care costs of an individual, instead of through private insurers. In a single-payer system every citizen is covered, patients have the freedom to choose their own doctors and hospitals, and employers would no longer be responsible for health care costs. Suozzi attended a March rally in Huntington in support of a single-payer system for New York. The U.S. Senate version of the health care bill passed by the House of Representatives in May would have resulted in drastic cuts to Medicaid funding for New Yorkers. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonprofit organization established to deliver health policy analysis to the public, nearly $92 billion in funding would be cut from New York’s Medicaid expansion dollars between 2020 and 2026. The predominantly Republican support for the repeal of Obamacare stems from expensive premiums and an individual mandate requiring the purchase of health insurance for all Americans with a fine for noncompliance. The U.S. Congressional Budget Office was no more optimistic about the GOP health care bill than the Kaiser Family Foundation. A July 20 report from the CBO on one of the many versions of the now-failed senate bill predicted 17 million Americans would be uninsured by 2018 had the bill passed, in addition to increases in premiums.

With a dramatic thumbs down gesture from U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) in the middle of the night July 28, the GOP-backed health care bill was effectively killed in the United States Senate, leaving the future of health care in the country, state and county a mystery. As a result of the vote, the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, remains the law of the land for the time being, despite rhetoric from President Donald Trump (R) suggesting the system is on the verge of collapse. In New York, a universal health care bill progressed past the state assembly and has been in committee since June 2016, awaiting state senate approval and a final signature from Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D). A New York State health care bill would supersede federal law. “First: I want to thank Sens. [Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)], [Susan Collins (R-Maine)], and McCain for showing such courage, strength, and principle,” U.S. Sen. and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) said on Twitter July 28. The three Republican senators voted in line with the 48 Democrats to effectively kill the bill, despite the GOP majority. “To everyone who called, tweeted, emailed, and raised their voice in any way: thank you. Your stories matter. But we are not celebrating. We are relieved — for the millions of Americans who can keep their insurance and breathe a little easier. Now, it’s time for the Senate to come together in a bipartisan way to fix the problems that exist in our health care system. We can stabilize the markets through funding cost sharing reduction and creating reinsurance programs, which keep premiums, deductibles down.” U.S. Rep. for New York’s 3rd Congressional District Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) released a proposal July 31 with the Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan group of legislators which Suozzi serves as the vicechair of, that would “stabilize the individual insurance market,” in the wake of the vote, according to a press release. The plan would create a dedicated stability fund to reduce premiums and limit losses of coverage, repeal the 2.3 percent medical device sales tax that is on all medical device supplies, provide clear guidelines for states that want to enter into regional control of their health care and create more options for customers, and more. “Americans are desperate for Democrats and Republicans to work together to try and tackle the challenges our country faces,” Suozzi said in a statement. “The Problem Solvers Caucus, by proposing this major bipartisan first step, is like an oasis in a desert of dysfunction. We still have much more to do with health care and other issues and we hope our colleagues will join our efforts in this spirit of goodwill and compromise for the common good.” The New York State Assembly bill for the 2017-18 session, which is currently in commit-

Sailahead sponsored another day of free, fun-filled sailing for veterans from across the country this past weekend. above, the fleet heads out to sea; bottom, participants smile and wave during the event.

Veterans and families set sail on Northport Harbor By Kyle Barr Clear skies and sunshine greeted some of our nation’s bravest this past weekend as they set out on Northport Harbor for “Let’s Take a Veteran Sailing.” The annual event was founded by SailAhead, a not-for-profit that works to help wounded veterans by using sailing as a form of therapy, and this year more than 140 veterans and their families came out to the water. Navy veteran Kim Humphrey served for 25 years until her career ended as a result of an injury she sustained during Operation Enduring Freedom. For her, sailing with the nonprofit group is one of the best choices she made, because one of the worst things she could do was stay indoors, alone. “I started out sailing every Friday with them,” she said at the event. “It has meant a lot, and it gives you accountability, because now you have to report to somebody instead of being at home and staying depressed. I was in the Navy, water had a calming affect for me.” Humphrey has been a consistent mem-

ber of SailAhead since the beginning. The group hosted its third annual Let’s Take a Veteran Sailing day last Sunday, Aug. 6, which brought veterans and veteran families from all over the country and even outside of the country to the Centerport Yacht Club. They spent the afternoon and evening on a fleet of around 45 sailboats for a day that emphasized camaraderie and honored the veterans and their families, especially those who have lost members to depression and suicide. “These families all share the same burden of continuing to live after losing a loved one,” Sean Duclay, one of the founders of SailAhead said at the commencement ceremony before the veterans and families boarded their boats. “Families of soldiers do not get deployed, they do not carry heavy bags, they do not do endless pushups, they don’t all go abroad, they do not get put in harms way, they don’t even have to eat k-rations, yet they endure extreme sacrifices, and the biggest sacrifice is to lose a loved one.” The Duclay brothers include Killian, the older brother who goes to Stony Brook University, and Sean, the younger brother who graduated high school this spring. Both were already strong sailors who loved sailing the waters of Huntington Bay and the Long Island Sound, and they, along with the rest of their family decided to use their love of sailing as a form of therapy to help veterans, starting the nonprofit in 2013. In 2015 the group hosted its first Let’s Take a Veteran Sailing day which gathered 90 veterans to sail on a fleet of around 30 boats. The event also honored Ryan James Day, a U.S. Army Ranger veteran who committed suicide in 2014 at the age of 21. His mother, father and two brothers attended the event and after a speech in remembrance of him, Ryan’s father Jim Day announced he would be giving $5,000 to Sail Ahead from the Ryan Day Memorial Fund. This year the event was aided by the Greenlawn American Legion Post 1244 which helped in the flag bearing ceremony before the veterans boarded their boats. “This is a great thing,” Post 1244 president Bruce Blanco said. “When you get families

from all over the country that have lost loved ones — myself included, I lost my son. This is why I’m doing this, everything is in his honor.” The flotilla of sailboats, many owned by volunteers, was anchored in Northport Harbor, and after the ceremonies the veterans were ferried to their sailing vessel that was put to sea with the unfurling of sails and the raising of flags. This was the first time sailing for many veterans. “We just found out about it two weeks ago, so we immediately signed up for it,” veteran and Port Jefferson resident Scott Roberts said. He and 25 other veterans who attended were members of nonprofit Samaritan Village that has programs to support veterans. “This is my first time being on a sailboat along with these guys, it’s very interesting, and it’s very well put together.” veteran and Samaritan Village member Kevin Troope said. Fredrick Hodges, a social worker for Samaritan Village veteran programs said one of the hardest things for veterans is being sociable once they are out of the service.

“One of the key pieces is getting the social part right,” Hodges said. “Once they are out [of the service] they might not know how to network. They have to have a balanced existence.” As each boat pulled its flags up the mast, they also raised a flag with the number 219 sewn onto it. The Department of Veterans Affairs released a study that said on average 22 veterans commit suicide each day, meaning every 10 days a full U.S. Marine Corps company, 220 men and women, is lost at home from suicide. The number 219 signifies the hope that one less veteran will die and be saved through building bonds with people and fellow veterans. “There’s a camaraderie to this, and something that veterans need is a calming effect.” Humphrey said. “When you see someone that you started out something with you’re at ease, immediately. Because this can be a very overwhelming environment. When we see each other, we gravitate towards each other.”

Summer reading

Pulaski Road Elementary School in the Northport-East Northport school district has been bustling with students from prekindergarten through eighth grade in the district’s Summer Reading Program. The 20-day program allows students to better prepare for the new school year by taking part in fun, educational games and activities that promote literacy. Students meet for two hours a day from Monday through Thursday and are placed with a teacher who gives them what they need to strengthen their reading skills. The day consists of small group instruction, which allows for personalized attention and engaging hands-on and multisensory activities. The students utilize centers which they rotate through, to explore different avenues of learning and participate in creative educational games such as fishing for words and bowling.

In addition, the program encompasses technology into the learning environment by providing reading exercises on the SMART Board and personal computers for students to learn through the educational platform, Compass Learning Odyssey. District Coordinator of Reading & AIS Tara Gaiss and program principal Scott Pellegrino have run the program for the past five years and watched it evolve into a beneficial outlet for students to challenge themselves to succeed. “The Summer Reading Program engages students in small group, multisensory reading activities with the goal of not only reducing summer loss but closing the gap in the specific areas of challenge for each student,” said Gaiss. “As part of our presummer goal setting process, we take great effort to pinpoint the specific areas of challenge and then work for 20 days to target these skills in creative and exciting lessons.”

PersPectives Getting started with fats Your turn

BY chris zenYuh Everyone “knows” that fat is bad, and that eating fat makes you fat. Of course, there was a time when everyone “knew” that the world was flat, too. It is time to discover the truth. Let’s start with familiar territory — proteins. In a recent article, I described proteins as chains of varying lengths comprised of up to 20 different beads (amino acids) and arranged in specific orders. You must acquire eight of these 20 beads through your diet to remain healthy. They are essential amino acids. Your body can make the other 12 as needed. Lipids, including fats, are similarly constructed from a pool of building blocks called fatty acids, some of which are also essential. A molecule called glycerol typically holds

fatty acids together. Lipids include triglycerides, diglycerides, and monoglycerides; suggesting the number of fatty acids connected to glycerol. Sterols (cholesterol being the most famous of that group) are also considered lipids though they have no energy value, nor are they constructed from fatty acids. Fats and oils are primarily made up of triglycerides. Triglycerides, in turn, are combinations of fatty acids, joined three at a time. Each fatty acid can be categorized by its length, (number of carbon atoms) the types and locations of the bonds holding it together. The MCTs (Medium Length Triglycerides) in coconut oil are triglycerides having fatty acids of medium length (8 - 12 carbon atoms). When the carbon atoms in the fatty acid are held together by single bonds, it is considered to be ‘saturated.’ Thus, a saturated fat source, like beef, would have a large number of triglycerides constructed with fatty acids having only single bonds. The saturation is responsible for why beef fat is solid at room temperature. A triglyceride is often made of three different fatty acids. The percentages of each type differ with each fat. Approximately 46 percent of beef fat fatty acids are saturated

while only 30 percent of the fat in chicken is saturated. The remainder of the fatty acid composition is unsaturated, having at least one double bond. The presence of only one double bond among the carbon atoms establishes the fatty acid as being monounsaturated (MUFA). Olive oil and avocado are popular sources of triglycerides with many MUFAs. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), have multiple double bonds and are prevalent in vegetable stock photo oils (corn, soy, etc.). One or more double bonds makes it more difficult for the lipid to solidify. Triglycerides with a large percentage of MUFAs and PUFAs tend to exist as liquids at room temperature. We refer to them as oils. Omega means end. The first double bond in omega-3 fatty acids begins with the third carbon from the end (away from glycerol) of the fatty acid. Omega-6 fatty acids are named accordingly. These familiar sounding fatty acids are essential, in that your body must derive them from your diet (dark greens and fish are good sources). Their nutritional value was understood before their

structure was known, during which time omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids were referred to as Vitamin F. While the most popularly known function of fatty acids is energy storage, more critical roles of fat in your body involve the structure of every cell in your body. Cousins to triglycerides are phospholipids, in which one of the fatty acids is replaced with a phosphate group. Phospholipids make up every membrane of every cell in your body. And, since such membranes are interactive with their environment, the integrity of their structure is critical to proper function. That you can read this article is a credit to your fat. Myelin insulates your nerves, allowing them to function properly. It accounts for approximately 60 percent of the mass of your brain. Myelin is made up of fatty acids. The list of life functions that depend on fatty acids goes on and on; many of which I will address in future articles. Until then, I will leave you with a bit of homework. Of the three macronutrient categories (carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids), which one does not have an essential role in our diet? And, where would we be if we had all continued to ignore the mounting evidence that the world was round? Chris Zenyuh is a science teacher at Harborfields High School and has been teaching for 30 years.

Red light camera program is a detriment

Photo from Three Village Kids Lemonade Stand

A lemonade stand created by Stony Brook teens raised almost $20,000 for charity prior to and during an annual event last week.

Giving is great As the summer winds down and people across the North Shore prepare to return to their regular school year routines, it could be very easy to get selfish — selfish with time in an attempt to squeeze the last bit of freedom out of August. But that’s far from the case for several different groups of people undertaking incredible philanthropic efforts right in our own backyard. Joseph and Maddie Mastriano, 13 and 17 years old, respectively, took “squeezing” literally. The siblings, for a fifth consecutive summer, held a fundraising lemonade stand in Stony Brook, this time raising nearly $20,000 to be donated to Stony Brook Children’s Hospital. The event was a huge hit this year and garnered a lot of attention, so we hope it continues to grow in years to come. Joey Zangrillo, a Port Jefferson resident and business owner, recently returned home from a trip to Kenya, where he traveled for the purpose of assisting in the expansion of a much-needed orphanage and the construction of a well. The story will be told in detail in next week’s edition of The Port Times Record. Jack Soldano, a 12-year-old from Miller Place, announced in July he would be selling his four-figure comic book collection at Heritage Park in Mount Sinai this month to raise money for the Miller PlaceMount Sinai Historical Society’s efforts to save a historic house. Miller Place resident Cody Carey, along with 29 members of his fraternity, is wrapping up a cross-country bike trip, which is held annually to raise money for people with physical and mental disabilities. Kimberly Williams, a science teacher in the Smithtown school district, recently joined an effort to send old sports uniforms to Uganda to be reused by kids in need. In Huntington this month, local officials, community leaders, businesses and organizations worked together to help raise food donations for Huntington kids. The end of summer malaise has not infected any of these admirable North Shore residents, and likely there are many others. We commend them for their incredibly selfless acts and hope they serve as an example for others. If you missed any of these stories, we encourage you to seek them out on our website, www.tbrnewsmedia.com, and if you know anyone donating their time with the purpose of bettering their community, we’d love to hear about it.

“The Suffolk County Red Light Safety Program uses automated enforcement to enhance the safety of motorists at red light intersections located within Suffolk County,” according to the county’s Traffic and Parking Violations Agency website. However, the 2015 report recently released by the agency tells a different story. A review of the data shows that 50 percent of the county’s red light camera intersections saw an increase in reported accidents over the previous year while 42 percent of red light camera intersections saw an increase in accidents involving injury. Those are startling statistics, although not entirely surprising, as last year’s report told a similar tale. How can the county continue to ignore that its “safety” program may be placing motorists in jeopardy? The report indicates that the county experienced an overall reduction in accidents at red light camera locations across Suffolk during the period, which is good news. However, that fact further underscores the concern over specific intersections and makes the county’s unwillingness to address potential safety fears all the more egregious. The cameras continue to roll at these

Despite the urging of countless motorists and several lawmakers, including myself, the administration has refused to entertain any suspension or re-evaluation of this program, which at best is flawed

and at worst dangerous. And, the reason for that is simple: the program continues to be what it always has been, more about dollars than sense.

Allocating federal funds While members of the Republican majority are competing to see who can make the deepest cuts, there is a budget proposal before Congress that would boost the economy for all of us while cutting the number of people in poverty in half. It’s The People’s Budget, proposed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus. The People’s Budget invests in safe and productive

infrastructure, education, affordable housing, health care and nutrition, childcare and working family tax credits. It calls for increasing the minimum wage. These investments will create 3.6 million jobs and set us on a path to cut poverty in half in 10 years. The People’s Budget invests $2 trillion in infrastructure spending, expanding rural broadband, universal prekinder-

garten and free college tuition at state and community colleges. Every year without fail our elected representatives give over half of the discretionary budget to the Pentagon, leaving less than half to be divided up to fund education, health care, environmental spending, infrastructure and everything else.

Northwell-Mather story was unfair That was a fine piece of objective journalism that headlined the Aug. 3 edition of The Port Times Record. To put State Sen. LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) on the front page with all his negativity toward Mather Hospital and the visual puffiness toward Stony Brook University Hospital was

ridiculous. The man’s name is already on the SBU stadium, what did you think he would say? In my opinion Mather made a fine choice. The Northwell system is far above Stony Brook despite Stony Brook constantly blowing its own horn. Who pays for the full-page

ads in the local paper every week? If Stony Brook is a state facility, then it is spending my tax money for those ads. Perhaps LaValle might comment on that.

OpiniOn Who’s on first in Trump’s Washington ballgame

t’s become an Abbott and Costello comedy routine, except in the nation’s capital. Let’s take a look: Trump: “Strange as it may seen, they give ball players nowadays very peculiar names.” Costello: “Funny names?” Trump: “Nicknames, nicknames. Now, on the Washington team, we have who’s on first, what’s on second, I don’t know is on third.” Costello: “That’s what I want to By Daniel Dunaief find out. I want you to tell me the names of the fellows on the Washington team.” Trump: “I’m telling you. Who’s on first, what’s on second, I don’t know is on third.” Costello: “You know the fellows’ names?” Trump: “Yes.” Costello: “Well, who’s playing first?”

D. None of the above

Trump: “Who was playing first, but I fired him.” Costello: “You fired him? Who did you fire?” Trump: “Yes. I most certainly did. It was time for a new first baseman. We’ve got a better one coming in to play first.” Costello: “Oh yeah? Who is that?” Trump: “No, who was on first.” Costello: “What are you asking me for?” Trump: “I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. Who was on first.” Costello: “I’m asking you, who’s on first?” Trump: “I already told you, not anymore.” Costello: “Not anymore is on first?” Trump: “Yes.” Costello: “You won’t tell me the name of the fellow on first base?” Trump: “Yes, not anymore.” Costello: “OK, so not anymore is playing first?” Trump: “He was, but he just left, too, so now I have no one.” Costello: “You don’t have a first baseman?” Trump: “Yes, I do, no one.” Costello: “How can no one play first?” Trump: “He’s very talented. He’s one of the best players I’ve ever seen at the position. He’ll win games for us.”

Costello: “When you pay the first baseman every month, who gets the money?” Trump: “He did, but no one gets it now.” Costello: “So, you’re not paying anyone?” Trump: “No, we’re paying no one. Sometimes his wife comes down and collects his paycheck.” Costello: “No one’s wife?” Trump: “Yes. After all, the man earns it.” Costello: “No one does?” Trump: “Absolutely.” Costello: “Washington has a good outfield?” Trump: “Oh, it’s great again.” Costello: “The left fielder’s name?” Trump: “Why.” Costello: “I don’t know, I just thought I’d ask.” Trump: “I just thought I’d tell you.” Costello: “Then tell me who’s playing left field?” Trump: “No, who was playing first, but he was fired.” Costello: “Stay out of the infield! The left fielder’s name?” Trump: “Why.” Costello: “Why?” Trump: “I’m thinking of moving why to

The Cold War: It’s déjà vu all over again

he hottest real estate in Japan these days is a bomb shelter, with a starting price from $19,000. When I heard that reported on the radio, I was instantly transported back to my first-grade class where, upon a signal, we covered our heads with our coats and slid under our desks. It was the Cold War: Stalin and the Soviets were the enemy, and we had drills to prepare for By Leah S. Dunaief an atomic blast. One day, there were moviemakers at the school, before television became popular, and they recorded us taking cover for the newsreel that preceded the feature film in every movie theater. In fact, there were two feature films in those days, usually referred to as A and B movies, but first the viewers

Between you and me

were treated to the news of the week. I was in the front row of my class, so I could be clearly seen on the screen crouching beneath my desk. But I never saw myself because my parents usually didn’t go to the movies. Neighbors told us that I was front and center. Just as the movie seemed unreal to me, so did the Cold War and the atomic bomb from whose blast my raincoat was supposed to protect me. World War II had ended, and I grew up in the subsequent Cold War generation. I heard people talking about building bomb shelters, but I couldn’t imagine having one since we lived in an apartment in the middle of the city. It did occur to me to wonder where we would find shelter in the event we needed to, and I think I questioned my parents about that once, but they didn’t seem to want to discuss the subject so it never came up again. My schoolmates may have been fearful, but we never talked about the bomb. Then Stalin died, there was eventually detente with the Soviets, a popular novel appeared by Ian Fleming called

“From Russia with Love,” we watched the touring Bolshoi Ballet at the old Metropolitan Opera House, something in my gut unclenched, and no one had atomic bomb drills anymore. I hate the idea that children in Japan are now growing up under the shadow of a nuclear bomb threat. Those in South Korea are surely afraid and, for that matter, now those in Seattle. In fact, fear seems to be rearing its ugly head in the United States, a country ordinarily known for its optimism and “pursuit of happiness.” For example, I would not like to be an immigrant here today and certainly not an illegal one. Those in that category must be living in fear day and night. I have no sympathy of course for illegal immigrants who have committed serious crimes and are therefore most likely to be deported. But the idea that ICE representatives are patrolling the courthouses, looking for illegals, certainly creates an atmosphere of people being hunted. I would also not like to be an employer whose business depended on the seasonal help of immigrants.

center field after he did such a great job in left.” Costello: “Who did a great job in left field?” Trump: “No, who only plays first and he’s not on the team anymore, so I don’t want to talk about him.” Costello: “You got a pitcher.” Trump: “Wouldn’t this be a fine team without a pitcher?” Costello: “Tell me the pitcher’s name.” Trump: “Tomorrow.” Costello: “Why not now?” Trump: “No, why is in left field. He never pitches, but he might play center field.” Costello: “Now when the guy at bat bunts the ball against tomorrow — me being a good catcher — I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball and throw it to no one.” Trump: “Now, that’s the first thing you’ve said right.” Costello: “I don’t even know what I’m talking about.”

Industries like hospitality, restaurants and farming haven’t known if their legal immigrant workers would arrive. Without that extra help, many businesses cannot survive because there are not enough Americans willing to do those low-level jobs. Ditto for those with special needs who require aides at home. On the other side of the ledger, our economic picture seems rosy. The stock market is setting new records almost every day, as corporations are being rewarded for making profits and the prospect of deregulation encourages investment. The unemployment rate is the lowest in some 20 years. Yet there is a great divide between financial and political happiness. Many of the same people happy with the economy are unhappy with the political picture, bemoaning the chaos in Washington, D.C. As we have always done, we will soldier on with our domestic problems. We are doing less well reacting to the foreign challenges, fear prompting us to answer threats with threats.

SPORTS

Huntington lacrosse player receives MVP award Garrett Moya has been a gamer for the Huntington boys lacrosse team. One of Long Island’s best players over the past four years, the attackman was known for his rugged style and goal-scoring abilities, and was honored by the Blue Devils for his accomplishments. Moya was the recipient of numerous honors over the years, and was named the winner of this year’s Donald A. Loughlin Founder’s Award, presented to Huntington’s most valuable player, in honor of the man who started the Blue Devil lacrosse program 60 years ago. “Mr. Loughlin wanted to sponsor this award because of the many opportunities that Huntington gave him as a teacher, assistant principal and lacrosse coach,” Huntington boys lacrosse coach Kevin Travis said. “Past Blue Devil lacrosse teams helped establish a tradition of excellence and Mr. Loughlin is proud of these accomplishments and wants to recognize present players in our program.” The Marquette University-bound lax star tallied 36 goals and 17 assists as a sophomore and 60 goals and 29 assists as a junior. This past spring, he added 44 goals and 30 assists, being

named All-County as a result. He will take those numbers to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the fall, where he was recruited to play on the Golden Eagles’ NCAA Division I lacrosse team. The award was formally presented to Moya during the 49th annual Blue Devil senior athletic awards banquet in Louis D. Giani Gymnasium before a crowd of more than 300. He was presented with a plaque and a $200 award stipend while Travis paid tribute to his athlete’s talents both on and off the field. Loughlin left Huntington in 1968 to become the principal of Rush-Henrietta High School in suburban Rochester. He donated $4,100 to the district seven years ago to establish the Donald A. Loughlin Founders Award. “I am very grateful to have had the opportunities as a teacher, administrator and lacrosse coach in the Huntington school district,” Loughlin, now in his late 80s living in Fairport, wrote in a letter to the district, which outlined his financial contribution and the parameters of the new award. Born in Brooklyn in 1926, Loughlin began his Huntington teaching career on Sept. 3, 1952 as a business teacher. He served in the U.S. Navy, rising to the rank of 3rd class fire control man in the South Pacific theater, in World War II, and was recalled to active duty in June 1951 during the Korean War and served six months in Europe before a final discharge. Loughlin became a central figure in Huntington. He first created a lacrosse club, with sticks and balls made available to students for use before and after school and during lunch periods, and launched an interscholastic team in 1955. He also served as vice president of the Long Island-Metropolitan Lacrosse Association. He was the Blue Devil head coach until 1959. During his time in Huntington, Loughlin, then a 6-foot, 165-bound military vet and former Adelphi University lacrosse player, captain and president of the Adelphi Athletic Association, also did a stint as president of the Adelphi College Alumni Association, was appointed as alumni representative to the Adel-

With the opening of the new Huntington High School in late November 1958, the school board decided to create a second assistant principal position to handle the influx of about 400 freshmen added to the new building, and hired Loughlin for the new position. He earned a master’s degree at Columbia University’s School of Business on June 1, 1954, and by February 1960, had completed another 30 graduate credits at Columbia. During his time in Huntington, Loughlin married, became a father of two children and settled down in Northport. His career here ended at the same time Robert Cushman’s 18-year tenure as high school principal came

to a close. Loughlin submitted a letter of resignation to Cushman, asking for it to become effective July 15, 1968 so he could assume his new duties as principal of Rush-Henrietta High School. One of the remaining signs of Loughlin’s time in Huntington rests in the high school yearbooks in the School Heritage Museum’s collection. In the 1959 edition, there’s a photo of Cushman, Loughlin and Raymond A. Hettler, another assistant principal who later left to become a principal in Massachusetts, exiting the new high school building prior to its opening following a tour of the facility just days before students flooded into the school for the first time. —HUNTINGTON ATHLETICS

Blue Devils football team is conditioning for upcoming season

File photo by Greg Catalano

The Huntington football team huddles up before its homecoming game last year.

Huntington football players are gearing up for the new season. The Blue Devils season officially kicks off at 7 a.m. sharp Aug. 14, and Huntington will participate in a multi-team scrimmage Aug. 26 at 8 a.m. at Veterans Park in East Northport, and host a second scrimmage Sept. 1 against Harborfields at 4:15 p.m. before the start of the regular season. The opening game of the fall campaign will be held at Blue Devil Stadium Sept. 9 against North Babylon, with kickoff slated for 3 p.m. Huntington will host three other home games against West Islip, Deer Park and Riverhead and travel to Copiague, Smithtown West, Newfield and Bay Shore this fall. Steve Muller enters his 22nd season as the Blue Devils head coach with a 119-78 record. His .604 winning percentage trails only legendary coaches William Class (74-41-16 in 20 seasons for a .626 winning percentage) and Frank Kubisa (24-12-1 in five seasons for a .662 winning percentage). Huntington football has compiled an all-

time record of 412-300-30 in 93 seasons of play. The Blue Devils trace their tradition back to 1895, but research has found these early teams were not strictly filled with players from Huntington, but more closely resembled town squads. A devastating injury to a player early in the 20th century resulted in a halt of the Huntington football program for two decades. It was resurrected as a pure high school team in 1924 with Alton Stevens as its first head coach. Huntington’s first victory came on Oct. 31, 1925, when it blanked Hicksville, 33-0. The Blue Devils won the Rutgers Trophy in 1948, 1949 and 1952, denoting Suffolk supremacy. The program’s longest winning streak is 10 games coming over parts of 1947 and 1948. Only Joe Lucey served longer than Muller has as Huntington’s head coach. Lucey coached from 1961 to 1987, compiling a mark of 125-95-9 for a .566 winning percentage over the course of 27 seasons. —HUNTINGTON ATHLETICS
