At a gathering of the Princeton Community Democratic Club on Sunday evening, members voted on which candidates to endorse for two open seats on Princeton Council. But none of the four hopefuls — Anne Neumann, Leticia Fraga, Tim Quinn, or incumbent Jenny Crumiller — were able to win the 60 percent of the votes needed for an official endorsement, even after a runoff vote. Ms. Crumiller, Mr. Quinn, and Ms. Neumann were able to secure the support of the PCDO, but not a full endorsement. Ms. Fraga did not win the 40 percent needed for that designation. The local Democratic municipal committee was scheduled to vote on the candidates at a meeting Tuesday night, March 22. A total of 166 members of the PCDO cast votes at the March 20 meeting, which was held at the Jewish Center of Princeton. In the first ballot, Ms. Crumiller received 80 votes, Mr. Quinn 79, Ms. Neumann 54, and Ms. Fraga 52. The runoff results showed 93 for Ms. Crumiller, 88 for Mr. Quinn, and 68 for Ms. Neumann. The forum began with a brief statement by Mayor Liz Lempert, who is running unopposed for re-election. Ms. Lempert cited two guiding principles that have steered her through her first four years in office: doing more with less, and a responsibility to “lift all boats” and work on policies that keep a commitment to future generations. Moderated by Nicole Plett of the League of Women Voters, the program continued with statements by each of the four candidates. High on the list of priorities was the issue of affordability. Ms. Crumiller said one of her goals is to enhance Princeton’s small town character and finish the work she has been doing to help merge the ordinances of the former Borough and Township. She also stressed that Princeton’s zoning needs re-examination. “We have a teardown epidemic,” she said, adding that keeping the tax rate low and continuing to provide non-market affordable housing will make it possible for residents to remain rather than moving away. Ms. Fraga cited her experience leading a movement to establish an independent civil rights commission in Princeton, and mentioned food insecurity, the Continued on Page 8

Old Post Office New Home for Triumph?

Triumph Brewery is looking to relocate from the Nassau Street location it has occupied for two decades to the Palmer Square building that was home to the Princeton post office until a few months ago. Last week, 20 Palmer Square East, the entity that bought the historic post office building in 2013, filed a preliminary site plan with the town to install a 297-seat restaurant and brew pub at that location. David Eichler of the California-based company, and Adam Rechnitz, owner of Triumph Brewery, confirmed Tuesday that Triumph is the operator targeted for the building. “It’s such a great, prominent building,” said Mr. Eichler. “It presents such an opportunity for this incredible space. Just think about how it can enliven Palmer Sauare.” Mr. Rechnitz added, “The business [Triumph] has been at 138 Nassau Street for 21 years, and it’s getting a little long in the tooth. It’s time to give it a major facelift. The opportunities are fantastic to think about.” The building contains about 200 seats, he added. The former post office, built in 1937

and the oldest structure on the square, contains a mural done in 1939 entitled America Under the Palms by Karl Free. The mural, which became controversial because of the way it depicts Native Americans, will remain. The building includes space not only in the reception area patrons know well, but in the basement and the former mail sorting area. “Most of the public only saw the mail hall area,” Mr. Eichler said. “Behind that the sorting area had ceilings 20 feet high. All of that gets opened up and is part of the

layout the architect has worked on.” The Princeton firms Mills and Schnoering Architects and Richardson Smith Architects have been working on the plan. Mills and Schnoering has been responsible for the exterior, while Richardson Smith has been involved in design for the interior. The plans call for the former loading dock on Palmer Square East to be turned into the main entrance. “The loading dock has been really pedestrian-unfriendly,” said Mr. Eichler. Continued on Page 7

Princeton’s Andrew Wiles Wins Abel Prize For “Stunning Proof” of Fermat’s Theorem Andrew Wiles, Oxford University mathematics professor and professor emeritus at Princeton, has received the 2016 Abel Prize from the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters for “opening a new era in number theory” in 1994 with his “stunning proof” of Fermat’s Last Theorem. The most famous long-running unsolved problem in mathematics, Fermat’s Last Theorem was a problem that

had stumped the brightest mathematicians in the world since it was first conjectured by French mathematician Pierre de Fermat in 1637. The theorem states that there cannot be any whole number solutions to the equation xn+yn=zn if n is greater than 2. The 62-year-old Mr. Wiles was a professor in Princeton’s mathematics department from 1982 until 2011, before Continued on Page 10

On Thursday, March 10, The Farmhouse Store Princeton was added to the New Jersey Sustainable Business Initiative (NJSBI). One of seven retail operations with this distinction in New Jersey, the store was recognized for its concern and regard for a cleaner, safer, and healthier environment. The NJSBI is an initiative of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection’s Sustainability and Green Energy (SAGE) program. The program’s vision is to raise awareness, educate, and motivate companies to pursue sustainability as a competitive business strategy and a shared community responsibility, and account for its performance in terms of the triple bottom line (people, planet, profit). Noted for its selection of handcrafted artisan gifts, pottery, glass, wood, textiles, metal, paper, home decor, and jewelry, The Farmhouse Store was identified by the NJSBI for its use of reclaimed antique barnwood in furniture building and carrying an eco-friendly and sustainable line of upholstered furniture (kiln-dried hardwood frames from sustainably-managed U.S. forests, cushion foam made from a plant-based formula, and eco-friendly fabric dye). “We are honored that the Sustainable Business Initiative has recognized The Farmhouse Store for sustainability planning which leads to environmental protection, an improved quality of life and economic success,” said owner Kristin Menapace. The Farmhouse Store is located in Palmer Square at 34 Hulfish Street, next to Mediterra Restaurant. Visit thefarmhousestore.com for more information.

Correction Last week’s article regarding the Broad Street MediaPrinceton Packet, Inc. transaction stated that Broad Street Media had bought The Packet. In fact, according to Packet president and publisher Jim Kilgore, The Packet approached Broad Street Media about forming a partnership where The Packet and its publishing operations would form a new company, with Broad Street Media being the managing partner of the new company. The Packet retains a significant partnership interest in the new enterprise.

RACE AND DEMOCRACY: Eddie Glaude Jr. signed copies of his new book “Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul” and responded to students’ questions after his forum at Labyrinth Books with fellow professor Keeanga-Yamhatta Taylor on the need for radical change in race relations in the United States.

Glaude and Taylor Explore Paradoxes, Call for Change in U.S. Race Relations In 2008 America elected its first black president. A Forbes Magazine headline that year proclaimed “The End of Racism.” And seven years later the nation is trying to understand the recent tragedies of Ferguson, Flint, Baltimore, the deaths of Eric Garner, Michael Brown, and others. “What’s going on here?

great Black Depression,” stated Eddie Glaude Jr, Princeton University professor of religion and chair of the department of African American Studies, speaking to an audience of about 150 on March 10 at Labyrinth Books on Nassau Street.

TOPICS Of the Town Mr. Glaude and KeeangaYamahtta Taylor, also a professor of African-American Studies at Princeton, shared the stage to discuss their recently published books and explore the paradoxes of race and democracy in contemporary society. Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul, Mr. Glaude’s new book, “delivers a stirring reflection on the state of black America,” according to Labyrinth, “making a grand argument as to how we’ve reached such an impossible place — and how we can move past it.” In her new work, From#BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation, Ms. Taylor “surveys the historical and contemporary ravages of racism and the persistence of mass incarceration and unemployment,” arguing, L abyrinth repor ted, that “the Black Lives Matter movement holds the potential to reignite a broader push for black liberation.” The third scheduled participant in the forum, Imani Per r y, also professor in Princeton’s African-American Studies Department, did not attend the session. Ms. Perry, who had been embroiled in a recent controversy over a traffic stop for speeding and an arrest for outstanding parking tickets, and had complained that her race was a factor in the police action, did not want to divert attention from Mr. Glaude and Ms. Taylor’s’ discussion. According to Labyrinth’s Dorothea von Moltke, Ms. Perry chose not to attend the session “in light of the fallout from recent events and in consideration for her colleagues.” Mr. Glaude cited a wealth of evidence that “all this talk about recovery doesn’t really apply.” He pointed out that African-Americans lost 240,000 homes during the past eight years, that 38 percent of black children in this country are brought up in poverty, that, for the first time ever, there are more

poor African American children than white children, that many black youths have been killed “at the hands of the police.” “The list goes on and on,” he stated. “I couldn’t make sense of that so I decided to write a book.” The idea that best expresses his frustrations and disappointments with race and democracy, Mr. Glaude stated, is the idea of a “value gap, a basic belief that white people matter more than others.” He added that democracy is repeatedly promoted and promised but never fulfilled. “There’s a reason why democracy is always in suspension in this country. Our lives are distorted by the value gap.” In order to close the value gap, Mr. Glaude called for a Continued on Next Page

“revolution of values, to uproot those racist values — to change our view of government, our demands of government, our view of black people and our view of white people.” “The revolution begins,” he added, “with our ability to see that this world can be different.” Ms. Taylor echoed many of Mr. Glaude’s concerns. She described not an American Dream for black people, but “what Malcolm X described as an American nightmare of economic inequality and unchecked injustice.” S h e t a l ke d ab ou t t h e Obama presidency as striking evidence of AfricanAmerican inclusion in the mainstream in what should be “the heyday of American race relations,” but “paradoxically, we have simultaneously entered a new period of black protest, black radicalization, and the birth of a new black left.” Mentioning the “profound disappointment that leads to a particular kind of action,” Ms. Taylor noted how Obama originally “raised hopes and expectations around the ideas of hope and change,” but the “hopes were dashed again and again.” In reaction to these disappointments, according to Ms. Taylor, the Black Lives Matter movement has highlighted the important issues and awakened a new generation of activists. Digging into the larger issues of structural racism and systemic injustice, Ms. Taylor asked, “How do we organize a different kind of society, a different kind of world that doesn’t rely on the police to manage the consequences of inequality?” —Donald Gilpin

Amanda: “I’d like Reese’s Pieces and Almond Joy, and this would be excessive, but plane tickets to see my sister in California and visit her for Easter.” Ellie: “I’m originally from England, so I probably would want some really special British dark chocolate. That would be really special.” Rene: “In my Easter basket, I’d like a new record, and a dark chocolate Hershey bar, with almonds.” Olivia: “My favorite chocolate bar is a $100 Grand, so I would really like that.” —(from left) Amanda Papanicolaou, Ellie Briggs, Rene Roche, Olivia Potter, all Princeton

Local Organizations Plan Walk for Syrian Refugees

On Saturday, April 2 at 10:15 a.m., a march to benefit Syrian refugees will take place starting and ending in Palmer Square. The event is a collaboration of The Princeton University Clay Project, Princeton Refugee Project, Center for Jewish Life, Pace Center for Civic Engagement, and Nassau Presbyterian Church. The exodus of millions of Syrians from their homes because of war has become the world’s greatest humanitarian crisis in decades. The walk is being held to publicize the plight of more than 4.5 million refugees and raise scholarship funds for youth living in the Za’atari refugee camp in Jordan. It covers the distance between Turkey and Greece that refugees must travel to reach a safe haven. Par ticipants and sponsors can donate at http:// crowdrise.com/wwsamalscholarshipfu. Participants and sponsors can also donate at the beginning of the walk. The event will benefit the Amal Foundation (http://theamalfoundation.strikingly. com), a 501(c)3, which engages U.S. students in fundraising and awareness effor ts and raises funds for the education of Syrian youth. For more information on the walk, contact mf21@ princeton.edu or agilad@ princeton.edu. ———

So I have a chocolate bunny, our favorite. The orange, carrot-shaped jellybeans. We have dark chocolate coconut eggs, special chocolate Eiffel towers.” —(from left): Sarah Parker, New York City, Cynthia Parker, Princeton

A panel discussion at the site of the 1935 Lindbergh kidnapping trial

Saturday, April 9, 2016, at 2:00 p.m.

Hunterdon County Courthouse • 71 Main St, Flemington, NJ

Presented at the historic Hunterdon County Courthouse, this panel discussion will explore the themes of press, justice, and celebrity, with special attention given to the interplay between Charles Lindbergh’s celebrity status, the appeal of press coverage of the trial, and the fragility of justice. Speakers include Landon Jones, former editor of People Magazine; Patty Rhule, Director of Exhibit Development at the Newseum; Edward Tenner, historian; and William O’Shaughnessy, trial lawyer.

Tickets are $25 per person; $20 for Friends of Morven. To purchase, visit morven.org/lindbergh

achievement gap, and affordability as major concerns. “We need to create a local tenant bill of rights,” she said. “I know of many families who have been displaced in the WitherspoonJackson neighborhood. Just this year alone, 20 families had to move out. They didn’t know their rights.” Ms. Neumann won ap plause with a statement that Princeton University should pay more of a share in taxes, referring to a pending lawsuit against the University focused on taxing of certain campus properties. She said Princeton should have an economic development commission to attract new businesses and keep existing ones. On the issue of affordability, she said property taxes should be lowered. “Maybe the penny-pinching old Borough can teach us something about cutting costs,” she said. Mr. Quinn also cited taxes and teardowns among major areas of concern for middle class residents. “Many wonder whether there will be a place for them in the new Princeton,” he said, adding, “W hat happened to the duplex in Princeton? ” Past president of the school board, Mr. Quinn said one way for the town to streamline its operations would be to share services with the school district, among other departments. There were groans from the audience when Ms. Plett asked the candidates what they would do with the former Valley Road School building, which is in deteriorating condition. “Not this again,” one audience member was heard to say. But the question was submitted and each candidate answered. “Does anyone in the room tonight have between $10 and $15 million?” Mr. Quinn asked the audience. “That’s the price tag for adaptive reuse. The rehab of that building would clearly be a want and not a need.” He added that anything proposed for the site needs to pass the Board of Education’s standard. Ms. Fraga said, “It’s a shame to have such a beautiful building not being put to good use,” adding she could imagine it being used for a youth center. Ms. Neumann said she could imagine the building as single room occupancy affordable housing, or another civic purpose. “It belongs

to the school board but the school board belongs to us,” she said. Ms. Crumiller said the building could be used for municipal offices or affordable housing for seniors “in a perfect world.” But the school board “has dropped the ball,” she said. “The building is falling into more disrepair. Every time I ask the administrator about it, he talks to the superintendent, who says the school district has a plan for it but they don’t have the money. That is not a plan. A plan without money is the same as no plan.” On the issue of increasing town revenues without raising taxes, Mr. Quinn suggested some revenue could be gotten from the Institute for Advanced Study. Its housing is not on tax rolls and faculty members send their children to public schools, but the Institute makes no payment to the town. “It seems to me the Institute is getting a free ride while the University keeps its residential properties on the tax rolls,” he said. Ms. Neumann broached the idea of a special improvement district that would include downtown businesses and Princeton University. Ms. Crumiller said she would not want to create such a district unless local merchants were in favor of the idea. The town should participate in more privatepublic par tnerships, she added, including more work

on projects with the University. Ms. Fraga said her focus would be on shared services with the county or other municipalities. The candidates were also asked about a complete streets policy to encompass motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. Mr. Quinn said, “We need to build a culture of cycling friendliness in this town. We need it to grow from the residents that bikes are expected here.” Ms. Fraga noted that biking is the only transportation option for some residents of Princeton, and the town needs to make cycling safer. Ms. Neumann said she is in favor of sharrows, or road markings, over dedicated bike lanes. Ms. Crumiller agreed with the other candidates that the town needs to make streets safer for cyclists. The Municipal Committee was scheduled to meet Tuesday evening with each of the four candidates and then vote to recommend which is placed in the Democratic column, which will receive the official party logo and slogan next to their name, and the order of candidates in the column. The recommendations are then passed to Mercer County Democratic Party Chair Liz Muoio for final approval before ballots for the June primary are printed. —Anne Levin

Andrew Wiles

moving to Oxford, U.K. he is the third Princeton-affiliated Abel Prize recipient in a row, following 2014 winner Yakov sinai and last year’s winner the late John Nash, who shared the prize with Louis Nirenberg of New York University. Considered the Nobel of mathematics, the Abel Prize includes an award of six million kroner ($700,000). Mr. Wiles had been intrigued by the problem since the age of ten, and, in 1986, he began working on the theorem in secret. From the moment he first encountered Fermat’s Last Theorem, he knew, he claimed, “that I would never let it go. I had to solve it.” he announced his proof in 1993, only to hear two months later from a colleague that his solution contained a mistake. After another year of work, collaborating with his former s t udent R ichard Taylor, who received his PhD in mathematics at Princeton in 1988, Mr. Wiles corrected his proof and published the groundbreaking results. “Few results,” the Abel Commit tee stated in its March 15 announcement of the award, “have as rich a mathematical history and as dramatic a proof as Fermat’s Last Theorem.” The new ideas introduced by Mr. Wiles have been crucial to many developments in mathematics since 1994. Mr. Wiles will receive the Abel Pr ize from h.R.h. Crown Prince haakon at an award ceremony in Oslo on May 24. —Donald Gilpin

Blackwells Mills Tree Cutting Part of Beautification Project

Tree cutting at Blackwells Mills is no cause for alarm. Between now and March 31, a scenic beautification project is underway at the site. “We are excited to begin this phase of the Causeway Project,” said Barbara ten Broeke, president of the Millstone Valley Preservation Coalition (MVPC). “The Causeway Project is to beautify two of the causeways along the Millstone Valley scenic Byway — Griggstown and Blackwells Mills. Each of the causeways is approximately two-tenths of a mile in length. They connect River Road on the west side of the Millstone River with Canal Road east of the Delaware & Raritan Canal.” The first step is to cut down trees along this causeway that are dead or dying. These trees will be cut flush to the ground. This phase of the project will take 3-4 days. During that time, the Blackwells Mills parking lot will be closed to the public. Traffic will also be directed by the local police to ensure safety. The tree cutting must occur before March 31st, for protection of two bat spe-

cies which may live in the area in the spring and summer. The chair of the MVPC scenic View Committee, suzanne Ochse, is coordinating the project. “Our partners are instrumental in moving the project along. PsE&G and the D&R Canal state Park officials have been working together on securing the necessary permits. PsE&G has been a great partner. They offered to be responsible for cutting the trees; removing the wood and chips; assuming the costs for the permits; and arranging and paying for traffic control.” Ms. Ochse continued, “Next, we need a landscape plan. We hope to work with Rutgers University landscape architect students for that. Recognizing the energy needs and requirements of the NJ Board of Public Utilities (BPU) and PsE&G, the plan will consider the electrical poles and wires along with compatible vegetation. BPU has already given clearance to move the project ahead. After the landscape plan is completed, we will be looking for volunteers to help us with the next phases of the Causeway Project — the acquisition of the vegetation and the actual planting.” Visit www.millstonevalley.org for more information. ———

Chivalrous Tales’ Sicilian Folklore and Heritage

The colorful interpretation of tales of Charlemagne’s knights presented in sicilian folklore will be the topic of a public lecture at Dorothea’s house in Princeton on sunday, April 3 at 5 p.m. The lecture will be delivered by Pietro Frassica, Princeton University professor of Italian. Frassica teaches seminars of the courtly literature of the Italian Renaissance, major authors of fiction in the twentieth century, and on the theater of Pirandello. In recent years, he has extended the field of cultural studies to literary texts with gastronomy. The medieval stories of Orlando, Charlemagne’s main knight, known for his gallantry, as well as his astute and rebellious cousin Rinaldo, became a popular subject in sicily’s opera dei pupi marionette shows in the 18th and 19 th centuries. Professor

Frassica will discuss the evolution of the tales into folklore for these theatrical events, and how the puppet presentations carried over into the ornately painted narrative decorations of caretti, sicilian horse- or donkey-drawn wooden carts. Dorothea’s house is located at 120 John street in Princeton (doors open at 4:45 p.m.). Participants are encouraged to bring refreshments to share at the reception following the program. ———

Looking Ahead to the Byrn Mawr-Wellesley Book Sale With the Other Donald

L

Everyman with his predilection for folly in spite of his many talents (rainmaker, snakecharmer, super salesman). What put me in mind of this early stage of my personal reading history is that this year’s Collector’s Corner at Bryn Mawr features reprints of graphic rarities from the golden age of Disney like Donald Duck and the Mummy’s Ring and Donald Duck in Dangerous Disguises (both three-volume boxed sets), not to mention an anthology devoted to Uncle Scrooge. While Classic Comics may have given me a child’s guide to literature, t h o s e r e l at i ve l y d r ab ad u lt nar rat ives were no match for Donald Duck, especially the brilliantly drawn single story adventures by Carl B ark s fe at u r i n g Donald and those little madcap g e n i u s e s H u e y, Dewey, and Louie on t heir t ravels to the Andes, or amid Totem Poles in the Klondike, or rubber plantations in Malaya, or with a pixilated parrot in Brazil, or snakecharming a Disneyfied Loch Ness Monster. I s t i l l h av e w e l l worn copies of Luck of the North and Land of the Totem Poles, where Donald’s nephews sell a steam calliope to a human hairball who calls himself Herman the Hermit and where outraged natives (“Gettum Paleface!”) chase Donald (“Feet do your stuff!”) after the products he sells them are mis-used (women foaming at the mouth after eating bars of soap, etc). While it would be a stretch to see anything much beyond a roused interest in faraway places in these 52-page comicbook novels with their sometimes politically incorrect stereotypes, the fact that the nephews frequently outwit Uncle Donald helped strengthen a pre-adolescent sense of self even as the hours of being intimately absorbed in reading helped create and encourage a lifelong habit. “That Adorable Man” Also in Collector’s Corner this year are numerous volumes from the Princeton University Press/Bollingen edition of the works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge donated by the estate of Peter Oppenheimer. In a 2005 column celebrating the centenary of the Press, I referred to the way Coleridge can “reach across centuries, speaking to you one-on-one, making his concerns your concerns.” Speaking of the intimate writings of “that adorable man,” the poet Elizabeth Bishop marvels at “how contemporary he sounds.” Coleridge will always be “contemporary” by virtue of spontaneous, unguarded, deeply personal note-

book entries on practically all aspects of everyday existence, his own aches and pains, longings and frustrations. To this day, I can open the Notebooks at random and find the equivalent of truths that, in Bloom’s words, are “totally authentic, totally real.” In Other Lands Wherever in the world you happen to travel, reading often offers the only available means of fending off boredom or discomfort, which happened one late March in Taormina as one of Europe’s c o l d e s t w i n te r s s pre ad f re e z i n g temperatures all the way to Sicily. In a frigid room with stone walls and marble floors and no heat, my only recourse for the better part of a week was to huddle under the covers reading George Eliot’s Adam Bede, a novel I might have given up on if anything else in English had been available. Though I was often out of sympathy with the characters (notably the oppressively pious Dinah Morris), I was grateful for their company under the warmth of the covers (“any old port in a storm”) where I could escape to rural England in 1799. Reader Interruptus A three-day train ride from Baghdad to Istanbul may sound exciting but it was deadly dull sitting up all that time in a packed compartment with nothing to read. My salvation was the loan of a copy of Alan Morehead’s The Blue Nile from a British nurse not unlike George Eliot’s Dinah, except her version of piety was a self-righteous mission to impose the wealth of England and all things English on a needy world. Never mind that, here was everything I needed in one precious paperback; it was like oxygen, sustenance, a canteen of water in the desert. I was completely absorbed, boredom had been annihilated, and better yet, I was learning something. I had self-help at my fingertips — until we pulled into Gazientep, the first city in Turkey, where a group of schoolboys were on the platform yelling up at us, practicing their Engish, as we leaned out the window. The nurse found this charming, and in the interests of spreading the wealth, she took The Blue Nile out of my hands and bestowed it on the schoolboys of Gazientep just as the train began leaving the station. I was only halfway through the book! Reader, I had to bite my tongue to keep from violating my normally benign view of humanity. If looks could kill, she’d have been as dead as a Dickens doornail.

But thanks to the way this incident loomed in my memory, all was not lost. Fifteen years later in Princeton, I turned the nurse into the charming if willful heroine of my novel, Rosamund’s Vision, which begins on the Baghdad-Istanbul train when Rosamund throws her eventual husband’s book out the window to bring “English” to the schoolboys on the platform. Chekhov 24/7 While there is nothing by Chekhov in Collector’s Corner, chances are that one edition or another of the stories or the plays will be on the Literary Classics table when the sale begins. Writing in How to Read and Why, Harold Bloom says Chekhov’s “greatest power is to give us the impression that here at last is the truth about human existence’s constant blend of banal misery and tragic joy.” Bloom also quotes Chekhov to the effect that “one should write so that the reader needs no explanations from the author.” In other words, the author gives us everything we need to make sense of the world of the story — not self-help so much as do-ityourself reading, or what Richard Poirier called “the work of knowing” in his study of Robert Frost. aving been binge-reading Chekhov from the first hour of 2016 to the present moment, five volumes of stories finished and ten to go, I’ve had first-hand experience of his “uncanny faculty” for making us feel certain truths about ourselves “for the very first time.” Chekhov is the essence of reading. Even at this moment, about to finish a novella called “My Life,” I’m feeling for a young woman stifled by routine, browbeaten by her father, reduced to a loveless monotonous spinsterish existence, until she comes to life with love and literature, showing her brother the books she’s borrowed from the library that she says “have awakened me to self-realization. They have been my salvation; they have made me feel myself a human being.” The brother, who is telling the story, knows her better than she knows herself, and when she talks of lying awake at night distressed to think how much of her life she wasted before books “opened her eyes,” he knows that no amount of reading will be enough to save her. The fatal truth is beyond her in that abiding “blend of banal misery and tragic joy.” —Stuart Mitchner A quick look at the partly completed Literary Classics and Drama tables shows that Chekhov is indeed present at this year’s sale, with a collection of rarely seen work in The Unknown Chekhov and a copy of his collected letters, as well as the Modern Library edition of his plays. Since Princeton’s Coleridge can be expensive, with editions of the Notebooks going for hundreds of dollars online, the books on sale in Collector’s Corner are great bargains. The Friday March 25 preview costs $25 and is worth every penny, whether you’re a book dealer or book lover. There’s no admission from Saturday through Box Day on Tuesday. The sale is closed for Easter on March 27. For further information, visit bmand wbooks.com.

Ultimately w e re ad in order to strengthen the self. —Harold Bloom ike it or not, there will always be a market for self-help books. While readers whose lives have been enhanced by poetry and literature tend to patronize that seemingly inexhaustible genre, anything worth reading could be studied and enjoyed under the same heading. Taking the idea to the most enlightened extreme, it’s fair to say that that a wealth of “self-help” books will be on the tables at Princeton Day School between Friday, March 25 and Tuesday, March 29 at the Bryn Mawr-Wellesley Book Sale. In an interview on bookbrowse.com about his book How to Read and Why ( Scribner Touchstone 2001), Harold Bloom mentions being deluged with mail from people saying how pleased they are that he’s “writing about literature for the common reader.” As a result, he became aware of a need that he felt “highly qualified and highly driven to meet” for “a self-help book, indeed, an inspiration book, which would not only encourage solitary readers of all kinds all over the world to go on reading for themselves, but also support them in their voyages of self-discovery through reading.” When asked how reading great literature can provide an alternative to the sort of self-help books that top the bestseller lists, Bloom singles out the stories of Chekhov because they have “the uncanny faculty, rather like Shakespeare in that regard, to persuade the reader that certain truths about himself or herself, which are totally authentic, totally real are being demonstrated for the very first time.” It’s not that either author “created those truths,” but that “without the assistance of Shakespeare and Chekhov, we might never be able to see what is really there.” Just as “assistance” can be taken to mean help in the broadest sense, “totally authentic, totally real” defines one of the most compelling attractions of the Bryn Mawr sale in the era of e-books, Kindle, and the drastic loss of stores where “the real thing” can be found. Another tangible benefit is knowing that these books have been read, held, handled, pondered over, and experienced; they show signs of use, not to mention their implicit value in helping fund scholarships for students at two prestigious colleges. In that sense, even the glossy like-new items with the telltale jacket flaps stuck forever at page 12 are fulfilling at least the semblance of a worthy purpose. The One and Only Donald It’s a bit daunting to realize that my childhood sense of myself was reflected and reinforced through the family life of an anthropomorphic duck and his three incredibly resourceful nephews. As much as I may have learned from an early engagement with Classic Comics like Moby Dick and Les Miserables, I found more substantive help, meaning more companionship and more healthy, instructive amusement, in Walt Disney’s comic book version of

Books Cory Booker Discusses New Book With Eddie Glaude at Labyrinth U.S. Senator Cory Booker will be at Labyrinth Books in conversation with Princeton University Professor of Religion and African American Studies Eddie Glaude on Monday, March 28 at 6 p.m. The program will be introduced by Alan Krueger, who served as chairman of President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers and as a member of his Cabinet from November 2011 to August 2013. In his new, New York T i m e s b e s t s el l i n g b o ok United: Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good (Ballantine $29.95) Mr. Booker makes the case that the virtues of empathy, responsibility, and action must guide the nation toward a brighter future. Accord-

ing to the Huffington Post, “What sets Senator Booker’s work apart from that of similar political books is that it seeks to elevate discourse rat her t han br ing dow n opponents of the opposite partisan persuasion. This is a refreshing take, one that is truly worthy of study and contemplation.” Raised in northern New Jersey, Cory Booker chose to move to a rough neighborhood in Newark, N.J., after graduating from Yale Law School. Here, he worked as a tenants’ rights lawyer before winning a seat on the City Council. In 2006, he was elected mayor, and in 2013, Booker became the first African American elected to represent New Jersey in the U.S. Senate.

Poet and Translator Reading at McCosh

On Thursday, March 24, Brazilian poet Salgado Maranhão will give a poetry reading together with his translator, Alexis Levitin. Maranhão’s poems will be read both in Por tuguese and in English. The reading, which begins at 4:30 p.m. in Room 28 of McCosh Hall on the Princeton University campus and is free and open to the public, is being presented by the Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Creative Writing, and cosponsored by the Department of Spanish and Portuguese and the Program in Translation and Intercultural Communication. Salgado Maranhão, the author of 10 books of poetry, rose from rural poverty to become one of the best-know n poets of his generation in Brazil. Last August, the Union of Brazilian Writers honored him with its poetry award for his retrospective collection A cor da palavra. He has won every major literary award

available in Brazil, including the Brazilian PEN Club prize (2014), the Brazilian Academy of Letters’ poetry prize (2011), and the Jabuti Award (1999), Brazil’s highest literary award. In the United States, his bilingual collection Blood of the Sun (Milkweed Editions, 2012) led to a 90-day reading tour that brought him to fifty-two universities; his second book for American audiences, Tiger Fur, was published last fall by White Pine Press. Alexis Levitin has translated 38 books, including Clarice Lispector’s Soulstorm and Eugenio de Andrade’s Forbidden Words (both from New Directions). He has been awarded three Fulbright Scholarships and two National Endowment for the Arts Translation Fellowships.

“Existentialist Café” At Labyrinth March 29

Library Live at Labyrinth, a series of author appearances presented in collaboration between the library and Labyrinth Books, continues with Sarah Bakewell discussing her book At the Existentialist Café (Other Press $25) at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, March 29 at the store at 122 Nassau Street. Subtitled “Freedom, Being and Apricot Cocktails with Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Others,” the book explores modern existentialism as a story of encounters between ideas and between people. According to Janet Maslin’s New York Times review, “At the Existentialist Café is a bracingly fresh look at onceantiquated ideas and the milieu in which they flourished. Ms. Bakewell’s approach is enticing and unusual: She is not an omniscient author acting as critic, biographer, or tour guide. As someone who came back to this material by rereading it later in life, she has made her responses part of the story, … she has tried to interweave the biographies and intellectual histories of a sprawling group of intellectual boldface names …. She allows the figures of Sartre and de Beauvoir to tower over this book, not for reasons of charisma but because she thinks their ideas about defining oneself by the decisions one makes have new relevance today.” Sarah Bakewell studied philosophy at the University of Essex and worked as a curator of early printed books at London’s Wellcome Library for 10 years before devoting herself to full-time writing in 2002. She lives in London, where she teaches creative writing at City University, London, and for the Open University.

“TWIST AND SHOUT”: This watercolor of a black and white warbler by Beatrice Bork exemplifies her award-winning bird art. Bork and fellow nature artist Michael Schweigart will be displaying their work at Artists’ Gallery in Lambertville as part of the “Wild in Detail” exhibit from April 7 through May 1.

“Wild in Detail” Art Exhibit

Beatrice Bork and Michael Schweigart celebrate nature in their joint exhibit at Artists’ Gallery in Lambertville entitled “Wild in Detail.” Their artwork will be on display from April 7 to May 1 with an opening reception Saturday, April 9 from 5 to 8:30 p.m. Beatrice and Michael have built their professional careers with their thoughtful interpretations of the passions that inspire them. While both artists are similar in their contemplative and highly personal approach, they focus on different subjects that nature offers. Beatrice enjoys immersing herself in the thought and planning that is required with watercolor, but also relishes in its poetic qualities. “My curiosity is satiated through careful portrayal, which in turn reflects the love and respect I have for my subjects. The malleable qualities of this medium allow me to focus on elements that are important to the painting.” As a professional artist, she has amassed numerous honors including recognition by the prestigious Society of Animal Artists and Artists for Conservation with signature status as well as the Eckelberry Award, specifically for bird art. Her paintings have been included in various international exhibits and publications throughout the U.S. and Canada, and are collected throughout the world. To learn more about Beatrice, go to www.beatricebork.com.

Michael continues to be inspired by the natural landscape and has broadened his scope with paintings of urban street scenes as well as the human figure. “I’m always interested in new subject matter to expand my visual horizons. No matter what I choose to paint it’s all about creating believable paintings. The underlying abstract shapes that are the foundation for my work are accentual to the naturalistic qualities many have come to identify with my work.” Artists’ Gallery has been a fixture in the Lambertville art scene for over 20 years, and is located at 18 Bridge Street, in the heart of town. Hours: Thursday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. To learn more about the artists and the schedule of events, visit www. LambertvilleArts.com. ———

Music and Theater Late Night Chamber Concerts Are a Chance to Join the Pros The audience that attends chamber music concer ts at Richardson Auditorium tends to be a sophisticated bunch. So Marna Seltzer, the director of Princeton University Concerts, works hard to come up with programs that keep them engaged and eager to come back for more. “I knew we had a lot of people in our core audience who were amateur musicians,” Ms. Seltzer said. “I’ve always been aware that those people bring a different energy to the audience. They are obviously very smart listeners because they know what it’s like. And they are very enthusiastic listeners.” Four years ago, Ms. Seltzer tried an experiment. “We had Ensemble ACJW from Carnegie Hall coming to do a concert during finals week, and we decided to do an informal event during which the students could read a Beethoven symphony alongside the players. At the last minute, we invited audience members to come and sit in as well.” The effect, she recalled, was magical. “I will never forget that moment — the glee in the room,” she said. “The people who were listening [or playing along ] were just fascinated. And the professionals loved it, too. For them to have such

a vibrant demonstration of what they do really hit home and made them feel sort of hopeful about the future of their field.” Inspired, Ms. Seltzer and her colleagues decided to make participation an annual event, and on a much larger scale. Since then, amateurs of various ages and levels have played alongside members of the East Coast Chamber Orchestra, the St. Lawrence String Quartet, and the Chicago Symphony Winds. The tradition continues on Thursday, March 24 when the PUC (Performances Up Close) 125 series brings The Escher String Quartet to Richardson. This time, audience members will sit so close to the musicians that they might even be able to read the music. Those who stay to hear the amateurs playing with the musicians at the conclusion of the concert will remain on the stage, close to the action. The ensemble will give two concerts, one at 6 p.m. and the second at 9 p.m., to be followed by the “jam” at 10 p.m. Among those taking part in the post-concert jam session will be Haim Soicher, a 79-year-old Lawrenceville resident who is retired from a government research establishment. He has been

playing the violin since age seven. “Itzhak Perlman was just here, and I had the chance to speak to him. I told him it was to his credit that I didn’t become a violinist, because I’m not good enough,” Mr. Soicher joked this week. “I majored in physics.” T he up com ing p er formance will be the second in which Mr. Soicher has participated. He has high praise for Ms. Seltzer and her efforts to make the concerts compelling. “Marna, to her credit, is terrific,” he said. “She tries to bring all kinds of new things to the series. It’s entirely her creation to get the community involved one way or another. And for us amateurs, to join a performing group at the end of a concert is a lot of fun, for us and for the audience.” Ms. Seltzer vetted some of the amateurs before the recent concer ts to make sure they could keep up. Mr. Soicher passed the test early on. He and his fellow amateurs have been practicing for their time on stage playing Haydn’s “The Emperor” quartet alongside the musicians this week. “We get a special tee-shirt,” he said. “We may miss notes here and there, but all in all, we usually sound very nice. We get inspired by the group. This is a new one, so it will

GETTING CLOSE TO THE MUSIC: At events that are part of the PUC (Performances Up Close) 125 concert series, audience members sit on stage at Richardson Auditorium with the musicians, and amateur players in the crowd get a chance to read and play alongside the professionals when the concerts conclude. The Escher String Quartet comes to the campus on Thursday, March 24. Amateur string players will join them to read Haydn’s “Emperor Quartet.” be a new experience.” “It’s a way of engaging the audience,” Ms. Seltzer said of the concert series. “The performances take place in the round, on stage. That was part of the impetus, to take down the barrier between the stage and the musicians and create a lot of interactivity.” R e a c t i o n to t h e c o n cept has been increasingly positive. “It has gone really well,” Ms. Seltzer said. “People like it a lot. We’ve learned a lot. Getting close to the musicians is the focus of the series and of our current season. Even if you’re not participating — just listening — it’s a great experience.” Visit w w w.princetonuni versityconcerts.org for information. —Anne Levin

MUSIC REVIEW

CUSP Enables Duo Cortona to Present Unique Concert of Contemporary Music

I

n any active arts community such as Princeton, there are major performing organizations at the forefront. Under the big-name ensembles, there is always an “undercurrent” of smaller organizations and artists who are creating music. One presenting organization in Princeton recognizing this is CUSP — the Contemporary Undercurrent of Song Project — founded last year to provide concert opportunities for performers, composers, and visionaries in the world of contemporary music. Finding a performance home in the recently renovated sanctuary of Princeton’s All Saints’ Church, CUSP is in the middle of its inaugural season presenting artists dedicated to contemporary classical music. This past Saturday night featured a performance by Duo Cortona, a husband and wife team of violin and voice, who presented a concert of six 21st-century works. Both mezzo-soprano Rachel Calloway and her husband, violinist Ari Streisfeld, have national and international credits for their respective instruments. They also have a very strong commitment to modern music, and in particular, the creation of pieces for violin and mezzo-soprano. Most of the works performed Saturday night by Ms. Calloway and Mr. Streisfeld were written expressly for them, including two world premieres. Against the backdrop of a glass wall framing All Saints’ sanctuary, Ms. Calloway and Mr. Streisfeld began the concert with “Music” by Massachusetts composer Jeremy Rapaport-Stein, who was in attendance. Mr. Streisfeld played from the rear of the sanctuary while Ms. Calloway sang from the front, creating a surround-sound effect. The sonority of both voice and violin rang easily through the church, as Ms. Calloway sang a vocal line that seemed much different from that of the violin. Ms. Calloway showed herself to be musically fearless, diving into a vocal part that held its own against a disjunct violin line. As

with most of the pieces performed in the concert, voice and violin accompanied each other. With a rich voice and clear diction, Ms. Calloway knew when to turn down the vibrato, and took full advantage of singing in a space which did not make her work hard to be heard. Duo Cortona presented two world premieres in this concert — one by South Carolina composer Thomas Dempster and another by Laura Elise Schwendinger, currently on the faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dempster’s The Painter on Silk was scored with lush violin and vocal lines, as the performers conveyed the story. Ms. Calloway and Mr. Streisfeld showed themselves to be very physical performers, and Mr. Streisfeld executed particularly unusual musical effects that were within a difficult violin part. Schwendinger’s three Love Sonnets were settings of the poetry of William Shakespeare, clearly declaimed by Ms. Calloway as Mr. Streisfeld played a continuous but tonal violin accompaniment. “Sonnet 147,” based on the text “My love is as a fever,” had a particularly swirling violin line in the lower register. The most familiar text was in the closing “Sonnet 18,” based on “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” and included a violin line that was more melodic than in the other pieces performed. ll the works presented Saturday night were very contemporary in nature, with few melodies to which the audience could cling. Although it was difficult to hear the words at time, especially in quick, disjointed sections of works, both Ms. Calloway and Mr. Streisfeld are to be commended for taking on this repertoire, without interspersing more familiar works. Duo Cortona seeks to “bring compositions written today into light,” and these two performers are an example of when artists cannot find opportunities, they create their own. —Nancy Plum

SING ALONG WITH THE MUPPET MOVIE

Puritan Family Torn Asunder by Demonic Forces in Historical Thriller

I

Their troubles begin when their newborn son Samuel vanishes into thin air while being watched by his oldest sister Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy). William tries to explain the disappearance as an abduction by a wild animal, even though his teenage daughter has confessed to the sinful self-indulgence of pangs of sexual arousal. The twins, Mercy (Ellie Grainger) and Jonas (Lucas Dawson), hint at Satanism, while Caleb (Harvey Scrimshaw) refuses to ascribe any evil to his big sister. Their plight continues to deteriorate as crops fail, livestock produce blood instead of milk, and Caleb falls ill and slips into a catatonic state. At this juncture, inconsolable Katherine starts yearning to return home to England and even questions whether God exists. Since this is Massachusetts in the 17th century, suspicions of sorcery soon swirl around Thomasin, in spite of her vehement protestations of innocence. However, this was a time when a rumors of witchcraft could have serious consequences for a young woman. Winner of the Best Director Award at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, The Witch is the directorial and script writing debut of Robert Eggers. Thanks to the period costumes and palpable at mospher ics, the movie generates an eerie air of authenticity. Also, the members of the talented cast are totally convincing as Puritans Excellent (HHHH). Rated THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM: Katherine (Kate Dickie) holds her fifth child, newborn son R for disturbing violence Samuel in her arms. She is unaware that their family is about to be excommunicated and and nudity. Running time: forced to leave the safety of the fort for a plot of undeveloped land at the edge of the forest. 92 minutes. Distributor: Tragedy strikes when Samuel disappears mysteriously while being watched by his eldest A24 Films. sister Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy, not shown). This is the beginning of a series of mishaps —Kam Williams that suggest that Thomasin is a witch. (Photo Credit: © 2016-A24)

t is Colonial New England in 1630, and William (Ralph Ineson) and his family have just been banished from the Puritan plantation because of religious differences with the settlement’s elders. The proud patriarch stoically prepares to move from the safe confines of the fort to an unprotected and undeveloped plot of land located on the edge of the forest. Naturally, William expects to face some serious challenges in trying to overcome the harsh elements, especially since he and his wife, Katherine (Kate Dickie), have five children to raise. But as devout Christians, they trust in the Lord to help them. Still, they didn’t anticipate the host of supernatural horrors that were about to unfold that would test their faith.

Estir Insurance Agency Offers Peace of Mind To Customers Looking for the Right Coverage

E

s t h e r Ta n e z , C PI A (Certified Professional Insurance Agent) is a high achiever, a person who has succeeded in her chosen profession and also continues to look for new ways to help people. Whether guiding them in their search for appropriate insurance for their needs, helping with taxes and bookkeeping, or encouraging them in establishing new businesses, she is ready to assist customers to find the best outcome for their specific situation.

IT’S NEW To Us

Founder and ow ner of the Estir Insurance Agency with offices in Princeton, Newark, and Hamilton, Ms. Tanez is a New Jersey and Pennsylvania Property & Casualty, Health & Life Licensed Agent. She knew at an early age that she wanted to be involved in the insur-

ance business. “I’ve really been in the business for 30 years,” reports Ms. Tanez. “When I was 16, my dad helped me get a summer job. It was a filing job in an insurance company, and I found I loved the insurance business. I got my license at 18.” She opened her first office in Newark 17 years ago and the Princeton office at 195 Nassau Street in April of last year. Right Coverage Wit h fou r l i c e n s e s — property, casualty, life, and health, Ms. Tanez is an insurance representative who can guide people through the often complicated insurance decision-making process. “I’m an insurance representative for auto, home, rentals, small business, professional liability, commercial transportation, worker’s comp, and life, among others. An agent’s job is to make it simpler for the client; to help you get the right coverage and the right company. We represent Travel-

ers, The Hartford, Met Life, and Progressive, and many other companies. “Life interruptions will happen,” she continues. “Fire, floods, car accidents, etc. We can’t prevent these from happening, but you can protect yourself. You can prepare yourself with insurance. It offers peace of mind. I like selling insurance because it can replace what you’ve invested.” Having lived in Princeton for two years, Ms. Tanez decided to expand her business and open an office here. The location seemed an excellent match for her company. “It is an outstanding location. I enjoy the community, and I like having my business here. Princeton suits my needs on many levels.” She is encouraged with the many new clients whom she has helped in Princeton, and looks forward to assisting even more. Small business insurance and home ownership are two of the most important areas for coverage here, she notes.

Grass Roots “There is a new trend today of many people starting small businesses, sometimes after changing from other jobs and careers,” explains Ms. Tanez. “And there are areas they may not know about. For example, general liability, contents of the office, employer liability, and worker’s compensation. “Also, because of my experience as a founder of my own business, which was grass roots, and which I built from the bottom up, I can talk to small business owners about the journey of an entrepreneur and of building a business from scratch.” In February, Ms. Tanez, in conjunction with the Small Business Development Center (SBDC), will participate in a free-of-charge program about disaster preparedness. In April, she will be part of a panel discussion regarding the key essentials all small business owners should be aware of. Accountants, attorneys, bankers, human resources specialists, and work managers will participate. Sharing in the success of small business owners she

Producing Breakthrough Performance at NCAAs, Tiger Wrestler Harner Earns All-American Status

I

n the Princeton University wrestling room in Jadwin Gym at the E level four floors below the ground, there is a wall containing the names of program standouts who have won the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIAW) title or achieved AllAmerican status. There hasn’t been an entry on the board since Greg Parker achieved both feats in 2003 but in the last few weeks, junior star Brett Harner has risen up to add two new lines. Earlier this month, he won the EIAW title at 197 pounds on Carril Court in Jadwin. Last weekend, he headed to Madison Square Garden (MSG) in New York for the NCAA Championships and came away placing in the top 8 to earn All-American honors. For Harner, the road to his big weekend at MSG started not long after he learned to walk, taking up wrestling before he entered kindergarten. “My dad was the head coach of our youth program at the time and my uncle was the head coach of our high school team so I pretty much started before I can remember,” said Harner, a native of Norristown, Pa. “I didn’t have much to say in it.” After dabbling a little in football and baseball in grade school, Harner focused exclusively on wrestling in high school, emerging as a star from his freshman year at Norristown High. He placed eighth in the state tournament in his debut season and took fourth, third and second in states the next three years on the way to going 190-24 in his career. Looking at several Ivy League schools and Stanford in the course of his college recruiting process, Harner fell in love with Princeton. “As soon as I visited here, something just clicked, sometimes you just know and have that gut feeling,” said Harner. “I went with it and it is the best choice I have made. Talking to coach (Chris) Ayres, and all the coaches, (Joe) Dubuque and (Sean) Gray, I saw how passionate those guys were and how well they articulated their plan; how myself and the other guys in my class would be crucial movers and kind of get that plan going. You could just feel from their conviction that it was something they truly believed in. I bought in immediately.” Making an immediate impact as a freshman, Harner went 28-13 at 184 as he successfully juggled the demands of college academics and wrestling. “It was time management, figuring out how efficient I could be in certain situations and how I could allot my time efficiently through-

out the day,” said Harner. “The quality of the wrestling is higher and that might have made it easier because you are constantly surrounded by guys who are there for the right reasons. Everyone wants to get everyone better, everyone wants to get after it and sharpen their skills.” As a sophomore, Harner suffered a setback, injuring his foot right before the EIAWs. Due to his outstanding regular season record, Harner ended up getting an at-large bid to the NCAA Championships, gaining a lot from the experience even though he wasn’t at 100 percent physically. “I think it was definitely helpful going forward, adjusting my goals,” said Harner, joking that he got by on adrenaline and Advil to get through the competition, ending the season with a 28-9 mark. “It made everything a little more tangible, a little more feasible. Instead of watching the guys on ESPN, I am in line with them for weigh-ins. I wasn’t able to give it my best shot last year but once the whistle blows, it is the same as if I am wrestling in Dillon Gym or even at home wrestling at my high school. It makes no difference.” Coming into his junior season, Harner made the jump to 197 pounds from 184. “I was getting stronger, I was putting on the weight pretty well,” said Harner. “My quality of life is much better this year, I can eat a lot more. Coach Nick Heflin helped me in the beginning of the year, he had been in the national finals in that weight class. I took some lumps in the summer but once I started getting in shape, we were legitimately in there scrapping every day and I was wondering why can’t I do that. There is no reason I can’t build on that, there is no reason I can’t beat anyone in my weight class.” For Harner, a turning point this winter came when he placed third at Midlands Championships in late December. “I lost in the quarters and I have got nothing to lose now in the consolation bracket; if I lose I am out so I loosened up and let things fly a little bit and ended up stringing together a bunch of good wins and getting third place,” said Harner. “That was huge for me, seeing how I need to really relax and trust in my training and not try to control things so much and just try to take things one situation at a time.” Heading into the EIAW Championships in early March, Harner knew that competing at home in Jadwin was a good situation for him. “Being able to sleep in my own bed was

huge; not having to travel, I can sleep in a little later,” said Harner. “It is absolutely huge, not to mention having a ton of alumni there. A lot of them rented an RV and a bunch of them came down from New York and were sleeping in the parking lot. Seeing all of them there was definitely one of the more rewarding things.” After a close call in the EIAW semis with a 3-2 win GARDEN PARTY: Princeton University wrestler Brett Harner, over Frank Mattiace of Penn, top, controls a foe.

With Stellar Senior Group Battling Hard to the End, PU Women’s Hoops Falls to West Virginia in NCAAs With the Princeton University women’s basketball team trailing West Virginia by 11 points in the waning seconds of their NCAA tournament opening round contest last Friday, Courtney Banghart gave her five seniors a curtain call, removing them from the game as a group. Point guard Amanda Berntsen started to tear up as she headed to the bench, stopping for a heartfelt embrace with Banghart before taking a seat and ending her college career as the Tigers fell 74-65. W h i le B er ns ten’s s ad ness was understandable, it brought to mind the admonition of Dr. Seuss, “don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” The team’s Class of 2016, which includes Michelle Miller, Alex Wheatley, Annie Tarakchian, and Taylor Williams in addition to Berntsen, made a lot of good things happen over the last four years. They helped Princeton

post a 97-23 record in their tenure, including 50-6 in the Ivy League. Along the way, they won two Ivy titles, made three NCAA tournaments, one WNIT, had two postseason wins, including the first NCAA triumph in program history, and produced a 30-0 regular season last winter and a final overall mark of 31-1. In reflecting on the program’s Class of 2016, head coach Banghart lauded the group for its accomplishments on and off the court. “In this life you hope to make an impact and you hope to leave a legacy and that is what this class has done,” said Banghart. “They have made an indelible impact on the program, the university, and on me. They left a legacy. They trusted me upon the very first day and they allowed me to push them and love them hard. That is what I told them, thanks for trusting me and I love you always.” Banghart loved the way her team battled as 11thseeded Princeton gave sixthseeded West Virginia all it could handle in the clash at St. John Arena in Columbus, Ohio. The Tigers jumped out to an 8-3 lead and led 18-16 going into the second quarter. Princeton trailed 3029 at half and 49-46 after three quarters. The Mountaineers started the fourth quarter with a 9-0 run and Princeton fought an uphill battle after that. The Tigers made it 68-63 with 59 seconds left in regulation but never got closer than that as they ended the season with a 23-6 record. “I thought the kids executed the game plan perfectly; we gave ourselves a chance to win and they just went on

one more run than we did,” said Banghart, who got 20 points and 10 rebounds from Tarakchian in the defeat with Wheatley chipping in 18 points. “They are a top 25 team for a reason, they are really athletic. You have a kid who was the player of the year in the conference (Bria Holmes) and averaged 20 points a game. Their athleticism gives us a smaller margin for error. They utilized their athleticism in a really solid way that last quarter. I walked out of that gym with my head really high.” Princeton had been on a high since it received an at-large bid to the NCAA tourney after finishing one game behind Penn in the Ivy League standings. “Most people won’t remember who the Ivy champion was but they will remember that Princeton got that first at-large bid,” said Banghart, whose team posted a 12-2 Ivy mark this season. “I am so grateful that we came in second, to be honest, because it gave us an opportunity to be the first ever Ivy at-large NCAA tournament team, men or women. With a program of this much history and with these universities that are so old, to think of the history we have made that never happened on the men’s or women’s side is really special. I will remember this year as the at-large team, that is the thing that will stick with me forever. I am really proud.” While Banghart will always remember her seniors from this year, she realizes change is a constant in college sports. “You re g roup, p e ople thought when Lauren Edwards and Devona Allgood left, what would happen or when Niveen Rasheed, LP

GOING OUT WITH A BANG: Princeton University women’s basketball head coach Courtney Banghart makes a point during a timeout as players, from left, Michelle Miller, Vanessa Smith, and Amanda Berntsen listen intently. Last Friday, 11th-seeded Princeton lost 74-65 to sixthseeded West Virginia in the first round of the NCAA tournament at Columbus. Ohio. The Tigers, who were the first Ivy league team, men’s or women’s, to earn an at-large bid to the NCAA basketball tournament, finished the season with a 23-6 record. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) (Lauren Polansky) and Kate Miller left, what would happen,” said Banghart, “That is the sign of a really great program, not just an elite class. It is who is next. There are many kids that have waited for their turn. It is a program, not a team so next man up.” In Banghart’s view, the program is in good shape going forward. “There is a lot of youth, just like when these guys, the seniors, were freshmen ; they became sophomores and we started them right away,” said Banghart, who returns junior starter Vanessa Smith along with junior reserve Taylor Brown, sophomores Kenya Holland, Tia Weledji,

tunity with this young team and building this group to wherever they are going to go, therein lies the inspiration of coaching,” said Banghart. “What’s ahead for me is to take a really detailed individual look at where each kid needs to be better and more skilled and then collectively how to play to their strengths. We are going to Australia this summer in August. I pushed the trip back from last year to this year because I knew this year’s group would need it a little more. We are going to start a little early. We will be back on the court next week with the kids. That is what it is about.” —Bill Alden

On one hand, the Princeton University men’s basketball team was bitterly disappointed by its 86-81 overtime loss at Virginia Tech in the opening round of the National Invitation Tournament (NIT). The sixth-seeded Tigers jumped out to a 9-0 lead over the third-seeded Hokies in the March 16 contest at Blacksburg, Va. But spurred on by a raucous crowd of 8,241 in Cassell Coliseum, Virginia Tech rebounded to take a 32-26 lead at halftime and stretched its advantage to 57-46 midway through the second half. Princeton didn’t wilt under the pressure, going on a 22-8 run and led by 68-65 with 54 seconds remaining in regulation. The Hokies scored three points in the last minute to force overtime and hit a three-pointer to take a 71-68 lead early in the extra session and never trailed after that on the way to the 86-81 triumph. P r i nce ton h e ad coach Mitch Henderson lamented his team’s failure to close the deal. “It was a great start, then a 180 for the next 10 minutes of the game; we found our footing and got ourself back in a good place heading into halftime,” said Henderson, whose team ended the winter with a final record of 22-7 overall. “Then we spotted them another 11-point lead. They went to the rim, that is what they did. We put a really big point of emphasis on not fouling, which ended up being the thing that won them the game.”

But while the Tigers didn’t win the game, Henderson believes the effort can be a springboard going forward. “Now that I am a few days away from the game, it is just what we needed,” maintained Henderson. “We went on the road; our guys know that is a game they can and should win. In an environment like that, knowing and believing that it is going to be yours, that makes a big difference in college basketball. I thought it captured the season. Don’t let the result fool you, look at how many great moments there were. Let’s take it and I hope they allow it to steel them over for what is going to be a really important offseason.” I t w a s i m p o r t a n t fo r Princeton to rebound from a final weekend of Ivy League play, which saw it lose 7371 at Harvard on the way to going 12-2 in league play, one game behind champion Yale. “I think we came into the game in a much better frame of mind than we had been in the week before,” said Henderson. “Be us, that was the message all year, be the best version of yourself. I think when we played Princeton basketball the way we do it now, it is take care of the ball, make each other better and really move the ball and look like you are having fun out there, we became really hard to guard.” In reflecting on the season overall, Henderson liked the way his team took care of its business, particularly after senior captain Hans Brase

was sidelined for the season due to a knee injury. “Losing Hans in the fall has to be mentioned, Hans was a unifier for our group last spring,” said Henderson. “When he went down, I thought the first step was that the juniors, Spencer (Weisz) and Steve (Cook), stepped right into a leadership role. We had some ups and downs; but I thought it was a great year.” I n H e n d e r s o n’s v i e w, Princeton’s 89-77 win over Bucknell on December 22 helped put the team on the upswing. “I thought that our Bucknell game going into the holidays was really what we wanted, the way we wanted to identify ourselves,” said Henderson. “The attention to detail and the focus on doing the right things, being together, making each other better. Those things were really starting to look like they were in place.” Playing well in a 76-64 loss at Miami on December 29, who has advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament, was another key moment for the Tigers. “I thought the Miami game was the flashpoint for our team,“ asser ted Henderson. “It was the catalyst that we needed. I told the guys many times, there is no going back from that game for our program for us, with the level of focus, the approach, all of those things. That is the level that you have got to be all the time.” Coming from behind to pull out overtime wins at Penn and Columbia in league play demonstrated focus and resolve. “Any time you have some improbable wins, like Penn and Columbia, those make a difference,” said Henderson. “Devin Cannady’s runner against Penn didn’t have to go in. Myles Stephens didn’t have to make those two free throws against Penn. Devin didn’t have to make those two shots against Columbia. Steven Cook didn’t have to make a couple of runners against Columbia but those things did happen. I am as excited as I have ever been for an offseason.” Noting that the Ivy League is as strong as it has ever been, with Yale’s win over Baylor last Thursday in the first round of the NCAAs as the latest proof of the league’s high level of play, Henderson believes some exciting things are on the horizon for the Princeton program. “We have got to take the appropriate time off and rest; I think they are all chomping at the bit to get going,” said Henderson. “I think the key to a good offseason is the humility to know that you can get so much better and that is what I would say with this group. Don’t let the weight of some higher expectations weigh you down, have fun with it, get better. There is so much for us to do. We have got good players. We have a lot of guys that I am really excited about that haven’t seen as much time. I am very much looking forward to how they approach the spring.” —Bill Alden

Sophomore Sims Emerging as Scoring Threat, Providing a Bright Spot for 2-4 PU Men’s Lax During his freshman season with the Princeton University men’s lacrosse team in 2015, Austin Sims tallied just two assists, assuming a shortstick defensive midfielder role. Getting moved to the second midfield this spring, Sims has emerged as a scoring threat for Princeton, piling up eight goals in the team’s first six games, second most goals on the team. “The biggest area of progress for me this year has been learning the offense and just getting chemistry with the guys up there,” said Sims, a 6’1, 185-pound native of Fairfield, Conn. “I am really just trying to learn from them and coach Madalon (offensive coordinator Matt Madalon).” L a s t S a t u r d a y, S i m s showed how much he has lear ned, tally ing career highs with three goals and five points in a losing cause as P r inceton fell 20 -10 to Penn in the Ivy League opener for both teams. Sims’ first tally got Princeton on the board as the Tigers trailed 2-1 in the early going. “Ryan (Ambler) threw it across and Gavin (McBride) set a nice screen on his man for me to get my hands free,” recalled Sims. “I was lucky enough, I took a shot and scored.” Penn did most of the scoring after that, going on a 7-0 run to seize control of the contest. “Af ter the first couple of minutes here, we didn’t respond that well and that happens,” said Sims. “We are going to try to come out next week and play way harder.” Sims responded with a goal late in the first half as Princeton cut the Penn lead to 9-3 but it wasn’t nearly enough as the Quakers outscored the Tigers 5-3 in the third quarter. “I definitely felt like we had some momentum going there but it was like at the beginning of the game, we had a little momentum and it went away from us,” said Sims, reflecting on the defeat which left the Tigers at 2-4 overall. “That is how the game went from there.” Firing away to the end, Sims picked up a goal and two assists in the last five minutes of the contest to give him his first college hat trick and a career singlegame best of five points. “It is good to come out here after Rutgers, when I didn’t shoot the ball that well,” said Sims, who was held scoreless on six shots in the 10-7 win over the Scarlet Knights on March 14. “My teammates put me in a good position to shoot and score and I was able to capitalize on the opportunities.” Sims recently earned a great opportunity, making the United States U19 squad for the U19 Men’s Lacrosse World Championship, taking place this July in Coquitlam, British Columbia. “Just knowing that you are going to represent your country this summer makes you want to help improve your skills as much as you can during the season for Princeton’s sake and for this

summer,” said Sims. “It means everything to represent my country and wear the stars and bars and get to play against all different types of people from different walks of life. It is really a dream come true.” W h i le t he Pen n ga m e turned into a nightmare for Princeton, Tiger head coach Chris Bates saw Sims as a bright spot. “Austin had a great week in practice; every week we challenge him to take the next steps and frankly he has,” said Bates. “He is a sophomore, we are asking a lot of him early in his career, putting him under the microscope offensively and defensively. That’s a lot and he has responded and reacted well. He has been a bright spot for sure.” Coming off the 10-7 win over Rutgers, Bates liked where his team was at headed into the Ivy opener. “I felt we prepared well,” said Bates. “I felt Monday gave us a little bit of confidence and a little bit of energ y but we cer tainly didn’t rise to the challenge today.” After Princeton made it 2-1, Penn’s offense gained confidence as it reeled off seven straight goals, running roughshod over the Tigers. “I give Penn credit, they came out and had a game plan,” said Bates. “One of the things that we wanted to stop, first and foremost, was their transition and early offense and we couldn’t stem that tide. I thought half-field defensively we were OK. Offensively, we took some bad shots and made some bad shooting decisions.” Princeton scored the final two goals of the second

quarter to draw within 9-3 at half and then tallied early in the third quarter to make it 9-4. The Quakers, though, responded with an 8-2 run and never looked back. “We came out and scored the first goal on the extra man and the penalty was locked in so we had it again and we made a bad decision with the ball,” lamented Bates. “We are too cavalier with the ball and that hurt us because it is great that you have an extra man opportunity but firing it to the inside and creating a turnover takes ball possession away from you. We didn’t get any kind of momentum and it is plays like that, those decisions are low percentage and come back to haunt you.” Heading to No. 3 Yale (6-0 overall, 1-0 Ivy) on March 26, the Tigers are facing a great challenge. “Given the strength of the rest of the league, week in, week out, we are going to have our hands full,” said Bates. “Like everybody else, we have to try to find ways to win Ivy League games. We are 0-1 in the Ivies with a lot of lacrosse to play. This one doesn’t feel good and we challenged the room to decide how it is going to define itself and get back to work. That is the only choice we have, nobody is quitting on March 20.” Sims and his teammates aren’t giving up the ship. “I think we just really need to come together as a team and think about how we are going to respond, instead of just talking about it now,” said Sims. “We need to take some direct action during practice this week and really figure out how we are going to come back against Yale next week and try to improve on our record.” —Bill Alden

Devin Stearns and Kendall Ratter played well in a losing cause as the Princeton University men’s volleyball team lost 3-0 to Lewis last Thursday in Romeoville, Ill. Senior Stearns and sophomore Ratter each had 10 kills but it wasn’t enough as Lewis, the reigning NCAA finalist, prevailed 25-20, 25-22, 30-28. Princeton, now 3-10, plays at NJIT on March 25.

PHS Swimmer Berloco, Hockey Stars Bendorf, Fletcher, Get the Nod as Town Topics’ Winter Standouts

A

bbey Berloco set the bar ver y high this winter coming into her sophomore season for the Princeton High girls’ swimming team. During her freshman campaign in 2014-15, Berloco earned the girls’ Most Valuable Swimmer award at the Mercer County Championships, winning both the 50 and 100 freestyle races as PHS won its third straight count y crow n. She then helped the Little Tigers win the Public B Central Jersey sectional title and advance to the B state final. Culminating the season at the NJSIAA Meet of Champions, Berloco took fifth in the 50 free and helped the PHS 400 free relay team win the title. Although a lot of attention was focused on Berloco as she started her sophomore campaign, she wasn’t fazed. “I don’t feel pressure,” said Berloco. “I feel motivated because last year as a team we all did so well, it would just be really great to match that level of last year.” Berloco drew further motivation from a desire to diversify her portfolio. “This year I have mostly been working on my technique and my endurance,” said Berloco, who also competes for Hamilton Aquatic Club. “Last year, I started off with the speed and I wanted to build from there. I am starting to work on going longer distance races so that is one of my bigger goals this season.” PHS head coach Carly Misiewicz noticed a more mature Berloco this winter.

“Abbey has stepped up in that leadership position, she is no longer a freshman, waiting for everyone else to tell her what to do,” said Misiewicz. “Now she is saying can I do this or how can I help out here, what can I do here. She is a positive force.” Berloco proved to be a force in the water once again. At the county championships, she won the 50 free and 400 free on the way to being named Most Valuable Swimmer on the girls’ side at the meet. She also helped PHS to a record-setting performance as it won the 400 free relay to punctuate the meet and take its fourth straight team title. While the Little Tigers were knocked out of the Public B sectional semis by powerhouse Scotch PlainsFanwood for its only dual meet loss of the season, Berloco saved her best for last at the Meet of Champions. Berloco won the 50 and 100-yard freestyle events at the meet and helped PHS win the 400 free relay. Berloco set a meet record of 23.20 in the 50 free and the quartet of Berloco, seniors Madeleine Deardorff and Brianna Romaine along with junior Melinda Tang, fell just .28 seconds short of the meet record in the 400 relay with their time of 3:28.60. In the view of Misiewicz, one of the things that sets Berloco apart is her will to win. “Abbey is a great swimmer, she is a true competitor,” said Misiewicz. “She will do anything we put her in, she will do the 400, the 50, the 100, or the 200. She always has that attitude that

I can go out and win no matter what.” For matching her brilliant debut campaign and solidifying her status as one of the top swimmers to come through the area in years, Berloco is the choice as the Town Topics’ top female performer of the high school winter sports season. Top Male Performers oming into the winter, Jon Bendorf was determined to keep the Hun School boys’ hockey team at a championship level while Connor Fletcher was focused on helping the Princeton Day School squad restore its winning ways. With Hun coming off a 223-3 season in 2014-15 that saw it win both the state Prep title and the Mercer County Tournament crown, junior forward Bendorf felt additional responsibility to produce. “Being one of the oldest kids on the team this year, I need to step up and play like it and be a leader out there,” said Bendorf. “I am hoping we can make a run like we did last year and have a great season.” But with Hun struggling in the early going as it started 1-4-2, Bendorf’s leadership took the form of helping out along the blue line. “We have asked Jon to play defense, we don’t have enough guys back there so he has been playing defense for the last two games,” said Hun head coach Ian McNally. “He is still leading our team in points from the back end. He has got so much poise with the puck and understanding of how the game works that he can

C

play any position.” Bendorf’s contributions at both ends of the ice helped Hun right the ship. The Raiders won the Purple Puck Tournament in late December in the Washington, D.C. area and then rolled to their third straight Mercer County Tournament title in late February. Displaying his full range of skills, Bendor f dominated the MCT title game, tallying two goals and three assists to earn MVP honors as top-seeded Hun defeated second-seeded Notre Dame 6-2. McNally, for his part, saw Bendorf as the catalyst to Hun’s county triumph. “Jon is a very offensive player, he scored two goals of the first three or four that went in and set the tempo for us,” said McNally of Bendorf, who ended up leading Hun in scoring with 46 points on 20 goals and 26 assists as it posted a final record of 17-8-2. “He is unbelievably calm. The rush looks dead and he still has it. He just turns around and looks for something else to happen and passes to somebody else.” For Bendorf, who is headed to the Madison Capitols of the USHL (United States Hockey League) and has committed to play college hockey for Rensselaer, doing his best for Hun has been a priority. “I have my travel team but you know Hun definitely has a spot in my heart,” said Bendorf. “I love putting on the Hun jersey and playing in front of our fans and just going all out to help my team win.” Meanwhile, across town at McGraw Rink, PDS senior forward and team captain Fletcher believed that the

Panthers were primed to rebound from a frustrating 2014-15 campaign that saw them go 3-16-1. “We had a really tough season last year and a real young group and the way t hat t hey have mat ured throughout this season and over the offseason has been a real blessing for us,” said Fletcher, who also stars in soccer and lacrosse and is headed to Cornell where he will play for the school’s storied men’s lax program. PDS head coach Scott Bertoli saw Fletcher as just the guy who could help a young Panther squad live up to the program’s winning tradition. “He is a force on whatever field or rink he is on,” said PDS head coach Scott Bertoli of Fletcher. “He is such a good kid, he does everything the right way. All of our young guys look up to him. It is funny because I think the best job he has done was last year as a junior captain for a team with very limited success. The kid went about his business right way. He had fun coming to the rink every day and I think the kids really benefitted from that. As a coach I appreciate it and as a coach I am smart enough to realize what he meant to that group last year and that has carried over to this year.” With Fletcher providing production and leadership, PHS enjoyed a reversal of fortune. Starting out 5-0-1, the Panthers gained confidence as the season went on. “Once we got off to a good start this year, I was happy that we stuck with it,” said Bertoli, whose team piled up wins over Hun, Lawrenceville, St. Augustine, Wyoming Seminary ( Pa.), and St. Joseph’s ( Pa.) to avenge some defeats from the previous season. “We had a really daunting schedule in January. I am looking at the schedule

and I am thinking every one of these games is a 50/50 game and all it takes is to lose one or two of those early games and you lose your confidence and things start to spiral. That never really happened. We talked about it. You don’t get the opportunity to play with this group for so long, come February 10, it is over and it is done with and I think they really embraced that.” Rolling past Hun 7-2 in the state Prep semis, Fletcher and his teammates fell just short of a state title, losing 3-0 to Morristown-Beard in the championship game. “We weren’t trying to think win or loss there, it was just trying to go out and play our hardest game against them,” said Fletcher, in assessing the setback. “I feel like we played well, we just couldn’t find the back of the net.” Fletcher enjoyed a Hollywood ending in the season finale against Chatham, assisting on a goal to force overtime and then scoring the game-winner in a 3-2 victory in the last play of his hockey career. “ Yo u c o u l d n o t h av e scripted it any better, it was such a fitting ending for a remarkable career,” said Bertoli, reflecting on the win which gave the Panthers a final record of 15-6-3. “He has done as much, if not more, for our program and our team than anyone has in my time here.” For Fletcher, helping the program get back on the winning track was his main focus. “I think the biggest thing is that as players and as a team, we are not playing as individuals, we are playing with each other and for each other,” said Fletcher, who tallied 31 points this winter on 15 goals and 16 assists. “I feel like we have made huge leaps in terms of that.” As a result of their special contributions on and off the Continued on Next Page

ice in helping the Hun and PDS teams enjoy memorable campaigns, Bendorf and Fletcher are the joint choice as the top male performer this winter. Top Newcomers n assessing his Stuart Country Day School basketball team coming into the season, Justin Leith felt that freshman Bey-Shana Clark would make an immediate impact. “She is just tremendous inside,” asserted Leith of Clark. “Certainly in the next couple of years she is going to be a very high level player, not just for Stuart but in general.” With Clark producing a

number of double-doubles with her scoring and rebounding prowess in the paint, Stuart got off to a 9-0 start. “It has been pretty smooth,” said Clark, reflecting on the transition to high school ball. “I think I have gotten a lot better. I play AAU and I am doing marvelous now.” Clark kept getting better as the season went on, ending up leading the team in points (15.7 a game) and rebounds (5.3 a game) as the Tartans went 19-9 and advanced to the Mercer County Tournament quarterfinals. Emerging as an inside force in her debut campaign, Clark earns the nod as the top female newcomer.

The Princeton High wrestling team boasted a number of battle-tested stars as it entered the 2015-16 campaign, including junior James Verbeyst, senior Dave Beamer, junior Kyle Angelucci, junior Ethan Guerra, and senior Noah Ziegler. But a pair of freshmen, Daniel Monahan at 113 pounds and Alec Bobchin at 120, started turning heads for the Little Tigers. “They have come in and have hit the ground running as freshmen,” said PHS head coach Rashone Johnson. “It is not too often where you can get freshmen who can come in and you can count on those guys to win for the most part. They just keep on going and going. I would say that as freshmen they come in with their experience and they have wrestled like veterans.” Bobchin, for his par t, emerged as one of the top freshmen in the area, going on to win the title at 120 pounds at the Patriot Invitational and placing first at 120 in the Mercer County Tournament. He ended up with a 20-4 record in his debut campaign. For coming through like a veteran on the way to a county title, Bobchin is the choice as the top male newcomer of the winter season. Top Coaches n his first season at the helm of the Stuart Country Day School basketball program in 2014-15, Justin Leith was looking to change the culture of the team. Embracing a work ethic and deepened commitment to the game, the Tartans showed progress as they went 11-16. Coming into this winter, Leith was looking for his team to take the next step. “The expectations have really been solidified and what is great is that now we have some new kids and the culture is starting to be established,” said Leith. “The older kids bring them in, it is not me, and they are going to individuals, saying

hey this is the way we do things here, which is really fun to be a part of.” With the addition of precocious freshman forward BeyShana Clark and smooth sophomore transfer guard Jalynn Spaulding and the leadership from its trio of seniors, Kate Walsh, Harley Guzman, and Rose Tetnowski, the Tartans started having fun right away, winning the George School (Pa.) Invitational to open the season and getting out of the gate at 9-0. “The thing I am happiest about is we are getting better every day, I don’t care about the record as much; I am not even thinking about that,” said Leith, reflecting on the team’s sizzling start. “We certainly have games this year that would be a stretch for us to win so I know that may come. As long as we are getting better every game along the way, that is what matters. “ While the Tartans hit some bumps in the middle of the season, they made a big step forward in the Mercer County Tournament. Showing resolve, fourth-seeded Stuart defeated 13th-seeded Trenton High 49-45 in a first round contest, holding off a late rally from the Tornadoes. “I don’t know when the last time Stuart advanced in the MCT so that was one of our goals this season,” said Leith, whose team fell in the county quarters and ended the season at 19-9. “We talked about it and we accomplished that goal and we are happy with it.” Getting the Tartans to accomplish its goal of daily improvement on the way to a sparkling record makes Leith the choice as the top coach of a female team. When Paris McLean stepped down as the head coach of the Princeton Day boys’ basketball team, the school’s Director of Athletics, Tim Williams, didn’t have to look far for his replacement. Having served as the boys’ hoops head coach at the Louisville Collegiate School for nine years before coming to New Jersey in 2011, Williams decided to assume the reins of the program himself. With the Panthers coming off a 5-17 season in 201415, Williams found players ready for change. “Things have been real positive, it has been really encouraging to see the way the kids have picked up things,” said Williams. “They are like a bunch of sponges, they do whatever we ask them to do. They go right to it and have a lot of enthusiasm. I have heard from a lot of people around who poke their head into our gym and tell me there is a lot of energy in the gym and that is exactly what we are going for.” After starting 5-5, PDS caught fire, winning eight of its next 10 games to bring a 13-7 record into the state Prep B tournament. “The guys that were returning, the new guys that came in have really bought

COACHING THEM UP: Princeton Day School boys’ basketball head coach Tim Williams addresses his players in a team huddle during the state Prep B final in February. PDS won the title as it edged Morristown-Beard 66-62 in overtime in the championship contest. It was the first state Prep title for the boys’ program since 1999. The Panthers ended the winter with a 16-8 record, more than tripling their win total from the previous season when they went 5-17. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) into what we have been asking them to do,” added Williams, reflecting on the team’s late surge. “That has been the key, they have been really receptive to the things we have been asking them to do. I think they have really improved incrementally throughout the whole season.” Seeded first in the Prep B tourney, PDS lived up to that ranking, topping fourthseeded Wardlaw Hartridge 63-44 in the semis and then edging third-seeded Morristown-Beard 66-62 in overtime in the final, winning the first state Prep title for the boys’ hoops program since 1999. “We had some modest goals at the beginning of t he season ; we t hought about a state championship but I think it was way out there,” said Williams, whose

team also advanced to the quarterfinals of the Mercer Count y Tour nament and ended the winter with a 16-8 record. “The guys really started to solidify and think about what they were doing and how well they were doing it and I thought this could be a reality for us and we were working for it. I think the buy-in, the fact that ever yone has subjugated themselves to some extent for the team with a bunch of new guys and a bunch of returning guys but who were young. I couldn’t be more happy. I have had so much fun coaching these guys. It has been wonderful.” For getting his players to sacrifice and emerge as a championship team, Williams is the pick as the top coach of a male team this winter. —Bill Alden

Oliver Hamit didn’t get the chance to take it easy over the holidays this past December. Instead, the Pr inceton High junior flew 21 hours down under to Melbourne, Australia to battle for a spot on the Aussie squad for the upcoming U19 Men’s Lacrosse World Championship.

After having impressed the Australia coaches in a camp at Adelphi University last August to earn a shot at the December tryout, Hamit worked hard to make the most of the opportunity. “Chip Casto and Peter Stanton, the two Princeton High coaches, really helped me out a lot, they were really supportive of me; I was

doing a lot of lacrosse, doing a lot of wall ball and getting as much practice as I could get in,” said Hamit, who hails from Melbourne and moved to Princeton in 2005. “I was going to the gym every week to put on muscle. Right now I am 6’0, 170 pounds. I was about 155 after the first tryout so I have

Joint Head of Special Collections, Head of the Genizah Research Unit, Cambridge University Library Biblical scholars should be familiar with the great medieval codices such as Aleppo or Leningrad, which are the foundations of the modern scholarly editions of the Hebrew Bible, but the remarkable collection known as the Cairo Genizah has preserved thousands of leaves of medieval Bible manuscripts, from the crudest home-made copies to enormous parchment pages from long-lost great codices every bit the equal of Aleppo or B19a. What can these leaves tell us about the text of the Hebrew Bible in the Middle Ages and what does the Genizah collection reveal about the community of scribes and scholars who produced them?

put on about 15 pounds of muscle, I was also doing winter track with the PHS team. I did three events, I ran the 55, the 200 and 400.” Hamit’s diligence paid dividends as he survived the final cut to earn the chance to represent Australia in the competition, which takes place from July 7-16 in Coquitlam, British Columbia. “The coaches made phone calls to all of the players and they told me that I had made the team,” said Hamit. “It meant a lot. I just felt so good because I have had so much support throughout the whole process from my family, my coaches, and all of my teammates. They all wanted me to make it really badly and so once I made it I felt like I made everyone proud. That is what was really going through my head, like wow, I made it, I have made people really happy.” That phone conversation was the culmination of a long process. “My dad was just surfing the web because he was curious about it, this was about two years ago, and so we found out about it online and we started corresponding with the coaches,” said Hamit, “They were interested in me and that is how it all started.” The first step was going to the camp at Adelphi University in Garden City, N.Y. “It was a great way for me to bond with the team because it was the first time I had played with them,” said Hamit. “It was like a tryout for me. For some of the other kids that had already been with the team, it was more of a practice. They were looking at my skills and seeing what type of player I am. They told me I was just an all-around athletic kid and they liked that about me. There was about 100 kids on the team before the Adelphi camp and then they cut the team in half to about 50 kids.” Making a good first impression, Hamit was invited to the camp in December. “They had another camp down there for seven days and they watched us all play again and after that camp

is when they made the final team,” added Hamit. Earlier this month, Hamit was back in Melbourne as the team fine-tuned its defensive approach. “T he coaches told me they really wanted me to get down for that because they were running a lot of defensive plays and they wanted to make sure that I understood all of that,” said Hamit. “It was just a three-day camp, but it was pretty long and pretty hectic. It was all about learning the defense.” Despite living in Princeton thousands of miles away from most of his Australian teammates, Hamit has already developed bonds with them. “I am friends with all of them on Facebook, which is really helpful,” said Hamit, noting that he is just one of three U.S.-based players on the squad. “The coaches are all really supportive. They talk to me all the time and they send me messages and e-mails. I am really close with the coaches and I have made a lot of good friends on the team just from playing with them in a couple of camps.” In describing his role with the Australian team, Hamit believes it will center on face-off play and getting chances in the midfield. “They like playing me off

of the face-off with a longstick, they have me using the shortstick every now and again,” said Hamit. “I am not the main faceoff guy, there are two guys who specialize in face-offs but they see me as a third guy. If the two guys are struggling, they can throw me in there.” In the meantime, Hamit is looking to have a big season this spring for PHS. “I have been playing so much lacrosse lately, I feel I have gotten a lot better,” said Hamit. “I am the main face-off guy for the school team ; they also have me playing as a two-way shortstick middie. I have been playing some offense with the school team. I am looking forward to it, it should be a good season. We have got some great players, I feel like I can make an impact.” Looking forward to the world competition this July, Hamit is primed for a great experience. “It is just going to be so great,” said Hamit, who will go back to Melbourne for an Australian team camp in June before heading to Adelphi for a week and then on to Canada for the tournament. “It is a once in a lifetime experience and opportunity. I am just going to go up there and try to make the most out of it.” —Bill Alden

Making Australia’s Team for U19 Men’s Lax Worlds, PHS Junior Hamit Primed for Experience of a Lifetime


TOWN TOPICS, PRINCETON, N.J., WEDNESDAY, mARCh 23, 2016 • 34

Enjoying Competing in Dillon Hoops as a Youth, PU Senior Eisenberg Came Full Circle as Coach For Jacob E is e nb er g, playing in the Dillon Youth B asketball leag ue f rom 2003-2008 left him with a slew of pleasant memories. “I started whenever the youngest age is, I think it is 4th grade, and I played through eighth grade,” said Eisenberg, reflecting on the program that is a partnership bet ween Pr inceton University and the Princeton Recreation Department, open to local boys and girls from grades 4-9 with University students serving as coaches. “I loved it a lot because you knew ever yone you were playing against, they were all local kids but at the same time, it was a different environment than the more competitive leagues you might be playing in. It was just a lot of fun. Having college students coaching was great, they seemed old and mature. I remember when I finished playing thinking that was a great part of my life for four or five years but you have got to move on.” After moving on to Princeton Day School, where he starred in soccer and baseball during his high school career, Eisenberg stayed home for college, heading across town to Princeton University. By his sophomore year, Eisenberg was back in the fray at Dillon, coaching a team in the 6th-7th grade boys’ division. “Hav ing the opportunit y to do that again from a coaching side was

awesome,” said Eisenberg. Eisenberg ended up coaching the last three years and helped make the 6th-7th grade division into a friendly rivalry. “It was great because I got some of my other friends to coach in the same age division; I have done the 6th-7th division all three years,” s aid E is enberg, whose classmate, Shaun Stojak, was his co-coach. “This past year, there were six teams in the division and four of them were coached by me or one of my really good friends. It was a lot of fun to practice with them and coach against them.” Drawing on his experience in the league, Eisenberg focused on making things fun for his players. “I think the biggest thing is that when I was a kid, I had a great time and I cared a lot about it and I tried to bring similar enthusiasm to it,” said Eisenberg, who wore a suit to each game, emulating one of the student coaches he had had when he was playing. “I tried to make sure that ever yone is playing and everyone is having fun and hopefully try to teach them something.” Enjoying a great finish, Eisenberg helped lead the Baldino & Brothers team to the title this season, his first Dillon crown as a player or coach. “It was really good to finally get that,” said Eisenberg. “I knew in the first practice this year, having

Spyglass Design, Inc Your Life, Your Vision, Your Home

coached for a few years, that we definitely had a chance looking at the kids. We had a good group. We had some taller kids and some quick kids who could handle the ball pretty well. They all wanted to be there. It was nice to come full circle and go out on that note.” As Eisenberg goes into the real world, he will miss his days at Dillon. “It is hard to think of a more pure form of sports than a league like Dillon, it is so local, everyone is there to have fun and maybe learn a few things,” said Eisenberg, an Operations Research and Financial Engineering (ORFE) major who will be working at a consulting firm in Washington D.C. doing data analytics. “Dillon is an unbelievable league. It is great for the town and everyone involved in it deserves a lot of credit. It is run really well. It serves a really important purpose for the community. I wish I could keep doing it honestly” —Bill Alden

Nicholas B. Van Dyck Nicholas B. Van Dyck, whose strong commitment toward making the world a better place led to his serving as a Presbyterian pastor in parishes around the world and as a lecturer and administrator at Princeton Theological Seminary, as well as the executive director of two national education institutions, died on March 20, 2016 at home in Princeton from Lewy body dementia (LBD). He was 82 and had lived in Princeton since 1968. Son of Presbyterian missionaries who served in China from 1917 to 1949, Dr. Van Dyck was born in Pasadena, Calif., in 1933 and spent his early childhood in China. He was homeschooled before attending first grade in Shanghai. With the outbreak of World War II, the family returned to the United States where his father was given different assignments and was also

often away in China. Young Nicholas attended schools in New York City, Princeton, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Grenloch, N.J., before receiving his diploma at the Stony Brook School on Long Island in 1951. During the 1950s he interrupted his college career to serve as a naval aviator aboard the carriers USS Tarawa and USS Antietam in the Atlantic and Mediterranean. His duties included serving as squadron legal officer and later public information officer for the US Sixth Fleet. Dr. Van Dyck graduated from Rutgers University in 1959 and Union Theological Seminary in New York in 1962. He was awarded a PhD in the use of language and mythology in Biblical interpretation at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Ordained in the Presbyterian Church USA in 1962, he served as pastor of parishes in Scotland, Palisades, N.Y., and Melbourne, Australia, as well as a lecturer at universities in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth, Australia. From 1968 to 1975, Dr. Van Dyck was a lecturer in Practical Theology and the associate director of Field Education at Princeton Theological Seminary. He was elected chair of the Association for Theological Field Education in 1975. At the Seminary he also directed summer programs in Organizational Development for pastors and officers and executives of non-profit organizations. This background and his interest in the impact of institutions and cultural forces on society led Dr. Van Dyck,

along with members of the U.S. House and Senate plus corporation executives and creators of prime time televisions’ family programs, to found the National Council for Children and Television and its institute for writers, directors, producers, and advertisers. These efforts resulted in a decade of notable and well received family TV series from 1976-86. Dr. Van Dyck’s experience with churches, synagogues, mosques, and other houses of worship, as well as his work in television programming led to his being appointed director of Religion in American Life in 1988. This position, which he held for the next decade, involved marshaling media resources, especially public service advertising (the Invite-a-Friend Campaign), and religious congregations to strengthen the positive contributions of religion for greater family and neighborhood stability and worthwhile futures for all citizens, especially children. In Pr inceton, Dr. Van Dyck volunteered at Nassau Presby terian Church and the Rotary Club, where he served as president. He also served on the executive committee of the Old Guard. He served on the boards of the YMCA, Family Services Agency, American Red Cross, Princeton Youth Fund, the George H. Gallup International Institute, and the Rotary Foundation, which provides scholarships for vocationally focused high school graduates. He is survived by his wife Marcia, w h o brou g ht a strong Quaker heritage to their marriage in 1958. He

Nancy J. Baran Nancy J. Baran, 63, of Pr inceton Junction died March 15, 2016, at home, surrounded by her family. On April 15, 1952 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Nancy was born to John A. Baran and Loretta T. Kofomehalis, the eldest of three children. She spent many happy hours in the company of her beloved grandmother, Anna Baran. A lifelong reader and the editor of her high school newspaper, Nancy recognized very early that words were powerful tools. “Why?” was always her favorite question. A graduate of Lafayette College and charter member of the 619 High Street Feminist Defense League, she married John F. Wagner in 1974. Nancy earned a J.D. at Seton Hall University School of Law and began her career in private practice. Nancy was a tremendous intellect and a solutionsfocused lawyer. She made a career in financial services law at Prudential for 34 years. Nancy was particularly proud of the critical role she played on the Living Needs Benefit Team,

which allowed terminally ill policyholders to access their life insurance proceeds while they are living. This was a groundbreaking benefit in the life insurance industry, and she was pleased that it was able to help terminally ill policyholders provide for their loved ones, access endof-life care, and protect their families’ homes. Nancy’s creativity, intellect, and passion made her a major contributor to this effort. She was a pioneer in the field of privacy and drafted major legislation on this issue, leading Prudential’s first privacy office. As Chief Legal Officer of Prudential Select Brokerage, she pioneered its third party sales force model, the cornerstone of its successful sales strategy. Nancy’s thoughtful leadership over many years was extremely valuable, particularly in a time of evolving state and federal regulation of insurance companies. She advised on, and helped Prudential come to the right answers about some of the most critical issues it has faced in recent years. She was a problem solver, creative influence, dear friend, mentor, and caring colleague who invested deeply in others. She al-

ways had a moment to listen and offered a deep well of sage advice. Her colleagues viewed her as a role model for anyone trying to manage a successful career, rich family life, and wide circle of friendships. Nancy was an accom plished cook who used food to gather the people she loved, and took pleasure in experiencing other cultures through their recipes. Guests from around the world had their first American Thanksgivings at her table. An amateur biologist, she was deeply interested in the natural world. In childhood, she imagined becoming the next Jacques Cousteau. She could often be found with binoculars and field guide in hand, at home or in Chincoteague, Va., teaching someone to identify a bird. As a gardener, Nancy carefully selected plants that would attract her beloved birds, butterflies, and insects, and she made sure something was blooming in her yard from February through the late fall. Fresh flowers gave her tremendous pleasure and she kept them in her house year-round; Nancy shared them by arranging the flowers for her church.

Nancy had a deep faith in Jesus Christ, and was a member of Windsor Chapel for over 30 years. She served on the boards of several international missions agencies, most recently World Team, which shared the hope of Christ across the world. Nancy’s greatest accomplishment was her family. She is survived by her husband, John Wagner; children, Elizabeth, Jonathan, Andrew, and William; their spouses, whom she adored, A nthony DiSanti, Pat tie Wagner, and Allison Simi; grandchildren Henry and Josephine DiSanti-Wagner, to whom she loved to read her extensive collection of children’s literature; sister Thresa Dewar and her husband, Mark; brother Jay and his wife, Tyna; nieces, nephews, and many friends. Her family celebrated her life on Sunday, March 20, at 12:30 p.m. at Windsor Chapel, 401 Village Road East, West Windsor. Friends were asked to call on Saturday, March 19, at Mather-Hodge Funeral Home, 40 Vandeventer Avenue, Princeton, from 4 to 7 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Mercer Street Friends Food Bank.

Carl Bennett Good Carl passed away quietly on Monday, March 14, 2016 at his home in Cooperstown, N.Y., with Pamela, his wife of 54 years, by his side. Frequent visits from family and friends had made Carl’s last days happy and comfortable. Carl, a member of the Princeton University Class of 1959, resided in Princeton for 36 years. He began his career at IBM after which he was president of RJ Newman, an historic building restoration company. Carl t hen joined Homas ote Company in Trenton, designing and marketing industrial packaging made from recycled materials. He retired in 2002. In Princeton, Carl and Pam raised their family and traveled widely. Carl was active in the Princeton community and contributed to the town’s many performing arts associations. Carl was a member of the Board of Trustees of the professional Princeton Ballet Company. On occasion he appeared on stage with the company; Carl astonished the audience and himself, gamely dancing a minuet in the

annual per for mance of The Nutcracker. Carl and Pam settled in Cooperstown, N.Y., where Carl dedicated himself to the Village and its natural resources. Carl served on the Board of Directors of the Otsego Lake Association and a number of committees to preserve the Village and its environment. Carl was also active in the Rotar y Club of Cooperstown and supported the club’s many activities. Carl is survived by his wife and two daughters, G r e tc h e n G o o d P i n g e l and Lisey Bennett Good; sons -in -law J. Spencer Pingel and Leonard Scott Snyderman; and his grandchildren Rory, Fritz and Sophie. Donations in Carl’s memory may be made to the Otsego Lake Association, PO Box 13, Springfield Center, N Y 13468, and the Rotary Club of Cooperstown, PO Box 993, Cooperstown, NY 13326. Plans for a memor ial service will be announced later this spring. Arrangements are under the care of Tillapaugh Funeral Service, Cooperstown.

Religion Jewish Peer Leadership Program for Local Teens

Jewish Family and Children’s Service (JFCS ) of Greater Mercer County is currently accepting 11th and 12th grade teens (as of the 2016-17 academic year) to participate in Gesher LeKesher, a Jewish peer leadership program. As Gesher “Madrichim” (peer leaders), teens will have the opportunity to lead a group of seventh to ninth grade “Talmidim” (learners) in outreach programs regarding various life issues from a Jewish perspective, such as friendships, dating, social media, and peer pressure. Last year’s peer leaders represented eight area synagogues and 11 different high schools. Gesher LeKesher meets for six hours per month with two training activities on Monday nights from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and additional outreach time on either Monday/Wednesday night or Sunday morning. For more information, email Celeste Albert at celestea@jfcsonline.org or visit www.jfcsonline.org/gesher-lekesher.

SELLING? HERE'S THE BEST WAY TO GENERATE A BIDDING WAR FOR YOUR HOME After a few years of sluggish activity, bidding wars have returned to the home market, and – not surprisingly – sellers and buyers in popular communities like Princeton and below $1,000,000 are most affected. As a seller, one of the best ways to generate a bidding war for your property is to underprice it – not so much that it throws up a red flag, but just enough so it stirs greater interest. Studies have shown once a potential buyer decides they're interested in buying a home, most of them automatically become at least a little emotionally invested in it. That means once they start bidding, they're more likely to continue, even if the price goes above what they consider to be their upper limit. That's the psychological effect of a bidding war – not just in real estate, but in auction settings as well: An initial offer makes it just a little harder to let go and walk away. So how do you determine how to underprice your home for best effect? Start working with an agent who knows the market and understands how bidding wars work, and aim for a price slightly below your market comps.
