As the town and the high school confront difficult questions about underage drinking, anti-semitism, and the effects of social media, the Princeton Police Department (PPD) continues to investigate last week’s “Nazis v Jews” beer pong incident, which involved a number of Princeton High School students. “We are investigating who provided alcohol to the minors,” stated Lieutenant Jon Bucchere of the PPD. It is not a criminal violation for minors to possess and consume alcohol on private property, he added, so “many times these cases are hard to prove.” Nobody, according to Mr. Bucchere, has come forward as a victim in the incident, and there have been no charges of harassment or anti-semitism. The Police Department became aware of the incident on Friday when they received an anonymous tip. They continue to investigate and follow up on leads, but to prove criminal culpability they must have evidence of who provided the alcohol or of an adult who knowingly made available a place for underage drinking. A photo of the beer pong game, showing seven high school students around a table, on which are numerous cans of Coors Light beer and cups arranged in a design of a swastika at one end of the table and a Star of David at the other, had been circulating on social media for several days. This particular anti-semitic and “profoundly offensive” version of the beer pong drinking game has been around for at least five years, according to the AntiDefamation League, its “over-the-top insensitivities” include allowing the “Jews” to hide one of their cups as the “Anne Frank” cup and the “Nazi” team to “Auschwitz” their opponents, requiring one of the players to temporarily sit out. The School Board responded strongly to the incident, stating, “Princeton Public Schools do not tolerate prejudices of any kind. Clearly we have work to do. The issues we are presented with — bias, ethnic insensitivity, underage alcohol abuse, and inappropriate social media use — are neither new nor unique to Princeton, but this incident has brought them into sharp focus. T h o u g h p o s s i b l e d i s c i p linar y consequences for the students involved Continued on Page 8

Making History: Council Approves Witherspoon-Jackson

It was an historic moment. On Monday evening after more than three hours of public hearings and significant controversy and debate among Council members, the Princeton Council passed, by a 5-0 vote, an ordinance to create the Witherspoon-Jackson Historic Preservation District. Though acknowledging pros and cons of the ordinance and the uncertainties of its impact on the community, councilman Bernie Miller strongly urged the creation of this “unique historic district.” “If not now, when?” he questioned. “It’s time to move forward. This neighborhood is important because of what happened here. Witherspoon-Jackson is recognized as a place with a story to tell. We need to recognize those residents who are already well known and those who are not well known. The time to recognize that is now.” Council President Lance Liverman listened from the audience but recused himself from the discussion and vote because he owns property on Quarry Street in the neighborhood. Other council members expressed a number of concerns about the ordinance, both before and after about 25 members

of the public voiced their opinions on designation of the historic district. Almost all the speakers supported the idea of the Historic District, and most urged approval of the ordinance, but warnings of “unintended consequences” and the need for more preparation were expressed repeatedly. Citing the possibility of increased expenses for homeowners, councilman Patrick Simon cautioned, “Our goal of recognizing history and our goal of protecting people may be in conflict here.”

Despite his worries that the council needs to do more work to investigate the impact of the ordinance, to impose more specific guidelines and to explore how to mitigate possible costs, Mr. Simon acknowledged his support for the importance of the neighborhood and the spirit of the ordinance, and he eventually voted in favor. Council member Jo Butler also hesitated before supporting the ordinance, with concerns about costs and the lack of Continued on Page 12

Scholars Discuss Wilson’s Complex Legacy, As University Strives for Greater Inclusion A panel discussion at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs last Friday brought together four distinguished scholars to “provide an educational and panoramic view of the many aspects of Woodrow Wilson’s life and career.” Earlier in the week a trustee committee, charged with examining the Wilson legacy, had announced that Wilson’s name would not be removed from the Wilson residence college or the School

of Public and International Affairs, despite a recent outcry over Wilson’s views and actions on race. The Board did, however, call for “an expanded and more vigorous commitment to diversity and inclusion at Princeton,” in pursuing several specific initiatives. Last Friday’s panel included Chad Williams, 2004 Princeton alumnus and associate professor and chair of the Continued on Page 7

April 17 Communiversity Festival Features Six Stages, Marching Band, Food and Fun Communiversity has become a rite of spring for Princeton. On the Princeton University campus and throughout the downtown, this celebration of local arts and culture is an annual event that draws more than 40,000 to town, and this year’s event on April 17, 1-6 p.m. will be no exception. T h e A r t s C o u n c i l of Princeton is the organizer of what started in 1971 as the “Art People’s Party,” held on the lawn in front of Nassau Hall. To reflect its expansion into the community and a collaboration of tow n and gow n, the festival was soon renamed Com mu n iversit y. Since then, it has taken place on the campus and in the streets.

There will be six stages with performances that go on all afternoon. Just about every organization involved in local culture is participating. The University sends its marching band, the Princeton Triangle Club, Princeton University Ballet, and others. Look for the Princeton Garden Statesmen, Princeton Girlchoir, Princeton Ballet School, American Repertory Ballet, The Blue Meanies, Sarah Donner, and the Qing Yang Dance Studio, to name just a few. Hundreds of artists and crafters will be on hand to display and sell their wares. Numerous local restaurants and markets will ensure that no one will go hungry. Despaña, Arlee’s Raw Blends, House of Cupcakes, Jammin’ Crepes,

M e d i t e r r a , M a m o u n’s Falafel, and Iv y Inn are among those who will be offering meals and snacks from around the globe. Activities for kids and families have always been a part of the mix. This year, there will be demonstrations of monotype printmaking, ceramics, paper flowers, drawing, painting, and something called “Nana’s Make-A-Mess.” As always, this colorful celebration of com munity pride goes on rain or shine. Central Jersey’s largest and longest running cultural event, it is still, at hear t, the “Ar t People’s Party.” Be sure to visit Witherspoon Media Group at Booth #271, on the corner of Witherspoon The Arts Council of Princeton’s Communiveristy ArtsFest attracts more than 40,000 attendees to and Nassau streets.

CELEBRATING A MILESTONE: Princeton University’s Center of Jewish Life has been a gathering place of Jewish students on campus for more than two decades. The long history of the faith on campus is the theme of a special, four-day conference.

It has been a century since Jewish students at Princeton University first gathered to celebrate the Sabbath, or Shabbat. It would have been unthinkable, in 1915, to imagine a four-day conference of lectures, panel discussions, religious services, and meals celebrating the University’s role in Jewish life.

Life at Princeton,” intends to do this weekend. All alumni have been invited to this mega-conference on the campus, and some 650 had registered as of early last week.

TOPICS Of the Town “That is an extraordinary number and I hope we’re prepared for it,” said Margaret Miller, associate vice president for alumni affairs and director of the University’s Alumni Council. “It was discovered, over the last year or so, that the first gathering of Jewish students in a formal way for Shabbat happened on campus in the fall of 1915. So we thought it would be interesting to bring alumni back to celebrate 100 years of organized Jewish life on campus and update them on what’s happening at Princeton.” Like other minority groups, Jews were not exactly welcome at Princeton a century ago. While the University always claimed not to use quotas, there is evidence, specifically in a biography of 1930s University President John Grier Hibben, that the practice did exist. From that first service in 1915 until 1947, Jewish life at Princeton was centered solely around Shabbat and holiday observances. In was in that year that the Student Hebrew Association was founded. Albert Einstein attended the inaugural service of this organization, which was the precursor of Princeton Hillel. A g roup of O r t h o d ox students lived together at Yavneh House, first at 21 Olden Street and later at 43 Wiggins Street, where they were able to have kosher meals and hold Orthodox services. Yavneh was relocated to Stevenson Hall, a University dining facility at 83 Prospect Avenue, in 1971, becoming the first University-sponsored kosher kitchen in the Ivy League. A rchitect Rober t A .M. Stern was hired in 1988 to design the Center for Jewish Life (CJL) at 70 Washington Road, site of the old Prospect Club. Operating as a partnership between the University and Hillel International, the CJL opened in 1993. According to its website, the CJL connects with more than 70 percent of Jewish students at the University, “fosters partnerships and collaborations with all segments of the University, develops the next

generation of Jewish leaders, and works to ensure the continued vibrancy of Jewish life on campus.” Planning for the conference began a year ago. “We held six alumni focus groups across the country to talk to alumni about what they might want to do and what they want to hear about,” said Ms. Miller. “We took a survey, and heard a lot from alumni directly. We’ve been working with the CJL, Chabad, and the Program in Judaic Studies. So we’ve gotten a ton of input.” The conference begins Thursday, April 14 w ith afternoon activities that include “The Great Princeton Challah Bake with Challah for Hunger” and a campus tree tour. Topics of talks and panel discussions throughout the weekend include “Judaic Studies at Princeton:

Despite all of the opportunities for scholarly enlightenment, the main event for many attending the conference will have to do with food. “The highlight for most people will be Shabbat dinner on Friday night, in a tent on campus because there is no place big enough,” Ms. Miller said. “We will also invite students to participate. It will be enormous. It’s a nice way for people to really get to know the students and each other. It’s really bringing people back, through the generations.

Department of African and Afro-American Studies at Brandeis; Eric Yellin, 2007 Princeton alumnus, and associate professor of history and American studies at University of Richmond; Ashleigh Lawrence-Sanders, history PhD candidate at Rutgers; and A. Scott Berg, 1971 Princeton graduate and Pulitzer Prizewinning biographer. Describing his undergraduate experience “at Princeton but not being of Princeton,” Mr. Williams welcomed the candid discussion of Woodrow Wilson, but called for “a bigger conversation on how we think about history and how we think about the

place of black people in this history.” Mr. Williams, author of Torchbearers of Democracy: African American Soldiers in the World War I Era, emphasized the importance and the difficulty of dealing with Wilson’s mixed legacy. “How we reckon with Wilson, with the history of that period, with the legacy of racial violence — and that history is still with us today,” he said. Focusing on Wilson’s impact on African Americans in government during his presidency, Mr. Yellin described Wilson as worse than an “ordinary racist” of his time. Wilson’s policies, according to Mr. Yellin, author of Racism in the Na-

tion’s Service: Government Workers and the Color Line in Woodrow Wilson’s America, “declared war on the nation’s most prominent middle class community of African Americans” and, although Wilson claimed to be a progressive, he “wrote black people out of the progressive vision.” Ms. Lawrence-Sanders described Woodrow Wilson’s view of African Americans as “paternalistic” and “racist.” He ”saw African-Americans,” she stated, “as unprepared for freedom, and not as full citizens.” She emphasized the importance of “the long tradition of protest for African Americans in understanding Wilson’s legacy.”

Scott Berg, Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer.

Referring to the Princeton controversy over the honoring of Wilson’s name, she asserted, “It’s not just about the name. It’s about individual African American students. Not just about taking down the Confederate flag in South Carolina. It’s about what’s next.” Author of a 2013 biography of Wilson, Mr. Berg claimed that the current controversy has given rise to many misconceptions about Wilson. “I’ve been alarmed to hear a lot of misinformation,” he said. “He was a racist,” Mr. Berg acknowledged, but not an anti-semite or a misogynist or anti-catholic. “I don’t think he was a hater or a bigot. He did not support the KKK.’” Mr. Berg described Wilson as a centrist for his time. Mr. Berg, who is a Princeton trustee and a member of the Wilson Legacy Committee, pointed out the different nature of the United States 100 years ago and emphasized, “I’m not trying to justify him. I’m trying to contextualize him.” Last week the trustees committee recommended and the board approved new initiatives in four areas: to establish a new pipeline program to encourage more students from under-represented groups to pursue doctoral degrees; to create a more multi-faceted understanding and representation of Wilson on campus and to focus attention on aspects of Princeton’s history that have been neglected; to diversify campus art and iconography to reflect the diversity and inclusivity of today’s Princeton; and to change Princeton’s motto from Princeton

remain confidential, The Board statement went on to say, “this incident raises difficult questions for all of us in the community about what we are teaching our children both in school and at home. As a district we will closely examine our efforts to address the root causes of these problems to ensure that the Princeton Public Schools remain first and foremost a place of tolerance and caring.” School Super intendent Steve Cochrane stated that the administration was talking with those students involved and their families, and at the same time was “focused on the lessons this incident has for all of us.” Emphasizing that “as a community we all have a

role in teaching our children to make good decisions, to be legally responsible, and to be respectful members of a diverse society,” he said “an incident such as this one forces us to take a look at our efforts in educating our children in the values that may be most important to their success in life.” Point ing out t he h igh school’s commitment “to take care of our students and to teach important lessons,” Principal Gary Snyder stated, ”Our students, faculty, and community are hurt. We are in a restorative process that will require time to address the varying degrees and reasons for pain. Our process will be one of education on the following topics: underage drinking; specifically, Holocaust education, and, more broadly,

education on all areas of diversity; the use of social media; and the topic of civic discourse on complicated issues.” Mr. Snyder went on to point out, “Unfortunately, we are in a negative light, but our strength as a school has always been our reliance on educational discourse to see us through difficult days.” High School social studies teacher Jeff Lucker will address the implications of the incident in his classroom. ”The issue of Holocaust education is one of great interest and concern to me,” he said, noting that “the Holocaust, underage drinking, and the use and abuse of social media definitely require discussion.” Mr. Lucker plans to “uni-

versalize the issues in his discussions with his students, rather than dwelling on particulars of the beer pong incident.” Last Friday, however, “with the TV trucks within sight on Moore Street,” Mr. Lucker explained to his students why the discussion would be postponed. “With feelings of anger, frustration, fear, and embarrassment running so strong, I felt it was an atmosphere in which even the most wellintentioned comments could be easily misconstrued and misrepresented. As I told them, ‘There is a time and a place; this is the place, but not the right time.’”

In a widely circulated blog post, high school junior Jamaica Ponder decried the incident and criticized the students involved, “Putting the picture on social media means that someone was proud enough of the game to want to show it off,” the blog stated. “Meaning that they must be trapped in the delusional mindset that making a drinking game based off of the Holocaust is cool. Or funny. Or anything besides insane. Because that’s what this is: insanity.” Princeton Council President Lance Liverman has announced that a Host Li-

ability Forum, focusing on the problem of underage drinking, is scheduled for May 18 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the meeting room of the municipal building. “It’s an entire country issue,” Mr. Liverman stated. “It happens all over. If you’re a parent, and it happens in your home and you’re aware of it, that’s a problem. People hosting — that’s what we’re trying to impact. Also, I’m not sure these kids understood historically what they were doing.” —Donald Gilpin

Mailbox Jenny Crumiller Is an Advocate For The “Variety and Diversity That We Cherish”

To the Editor: I am writing to support the candidacy of Jenny Crumiller for Princeton Council. She has consistently questioned authority and advocated zoning and other policies and regulations that will keep neighborhoods from becoming absorbed in a faceless city. She is a thoughtful steward of the community and an advocate for the variety and diversity that we cherish. When she was elected president of the Princeton Community Democratic Organization some years ago, it was as a reformer to open up the group and make it more widely representative. I look forward to her election to Council to continue to play that role in the wider arena. She is the candidate with the widest experience and the strongest record of accomplishments. It gives me pleasure to endorse her for another term on Princeton Council. PETEr LInDEnfELD Harris road

By Taking Our Local Nature’s Problems Seriously, We Also Build Community

To the Editor: If you’ve noticed a little yellow flower starting to take over your lawn and garden, you aren’t alone. Appreciation soon turns to distress as the plant spreads to become a form of green pavement, outcompeting other plants, then leaving the ground bare when it dies back in early summer. It has lots of names — lesser celandine, fig buttercup, figroot because of its fig-shaped underground tubers, or the scientific name ficaria verna. Like many introduced species, it gains competitive advantage by being inedible to the local wildlife. Along with non-native shrubs that wildlife also avoid, like honeysuckle, winged euonymus, privet, and multiflora rose, lesser celandine prevents solar energy from moving up the foodchain from plants to insects to birds. This foiling of natural processes effectively shrinks the acreage of functional open space Princeton has worked so hard to preserve. The most dramatic example of this plant’s dominance locally is in Pettoranello Gardens, from where it has spread downstream into Mountain Lakes Preserve. That situation is beyond control, but in homeowners’ yards, and many local parks and preserves, early detection and treatment can nip invasions in the bud. I’ve been encouraging hom-

eowners and the town rec. department to take this work seriously, because one small infestation can quickly spread to affect downhill neighbors, parks, and preserves. Effective treatments can be found online, but typically consist of using 2 percent glyphosate, the active ingredient in products like roundup, the wetland-safe rodeo, and other similar formulations. As with the abuse of antibiotics by the meat industry, glyphosate is now vastly overused to grow bio-engineered corn and soybeans. That abuse has in part driven a demonization of herbicides in general. But just as antibiotics remain a critical medicine, various herbicides remain a critical means of dealing with invasive plants. Personally, my avoidance of herbicides is nearly total, but in the case of lesser celandine, with its tuberous roots, no other approach is practical. Only if there are just a few plants can one dig them out, bag them up, and throw them in the trash, not the compost. Adding to the distress of these radical transformations of our landscapes is a strange narrative that is showing up in places like the new York Times and the radio show You Bet Your Garden. Through a denial of both the problem and the solution, reminiscent of climate change, it claims that we should learn to love invasive species, and hate those who dare to take action against them. This view cheats us of the deep satisfaction of identifying a problem and working together to solve it. This past weekend, as part of my work for friends of Herrontown Woods, I was able to convince a couple neighbors of the preserve to treat their lesser celandine. By doing so, they will not only spare their own yards but also the stream just down the hill. As a bonus, I got to meet some new neighbors. By taking our local nature’s problems seriously, we also build community. STEPHEn HILTnEr President, friends of Herrontown Woods, north Harrison Street

McCarter Theatre Center Thanks All Who Attended April 2 Event To the Editor: On behalf of everyone at McCarter Theatre Center, I want to express thanks to all who attended and supported our recent “relaxed” performance of “Sing Along with The Muppet Movie” on April 2, World Autism Awareness Day. This is the fourth consecutive season that McCarter has offered a special performance for individuals who are on the autism spectrum or have sensory sensitivities and their family members. Slight adjustments to the lighting, special effects, and music allow for everyone to enjoy the thrill of live performance in a somewhat altered environment. The Muppet Movie event was a joyous interactive afternoon performance for a family audience, many of whom have limited opportunities to enjoy theatre together with their entire family. We thank The Karma foundation for their leadership and support of these “relaxed” performances at McCarter. We are also grateful for the contributions of Jazams and Olives Deli to the Muppet Movie event, and of course, we thank our incredible volunteer ushers. TIMOTHY J. SHIELDS, Managing Director, McCarter Theatre Center EMILY MAnn, Artistic Director, McCarter Theatre Center

Wilson’s Egregious Actions, Not His Views, Were What Provoked the BJL Campus Protest

To the Editor: Your article [Wilson’s name to remain on University Buildings,” page one, April 6] on the decision to leave Woodrow Wilson’s name on two campus buildings begins by stating that Princeton University made this choice “despite a recent outcry over his views on race.” The protest by students of the Black Justice League and the attendant national outcry for the removal of Wilson’s name on a school of public policy was not motivated by Wilson’s “views” on race but by his egregious actions, both as Princeton’s president and, more terribly, as president of the United States. At Princeton, Wilson adamantly denied African-American men admission to the University. As president, he packed his cabinet with like-minded racists. Together, they methodically dismantled nearly 60 years of progressive policies enacted since reconstruction. Wilson ended integration throughout all federal government agencies; his bigoted minions purged and demoted thousands of African-American federal employees. To say it’s all about Wilson’s “views” trivializes the issue: Wilson’s deeds were retrograde and reprehensible by the standards of his era, never mind ours. PATrICK WALSH Maybury Hill road

Supporting “Friend of Princeton” Leticia Fraga for Princeton Council

To the Editor: What I can tell you about Leticia fraga is that she is a great friend to all of Princeton. That includes those whom she knows and others she has not yet met. Every person in every neighborhood matters to her. As a Council member, she will be a voice for the unheard people of Princeton. In the years that I have known her, she has been a champion for civil rights and a passionate advocate for social justice. These are the qualities we need to carry our recently consolidated town into the future. Leticia takes pride in all that Princeton has to offer and she will work to see that all are included to share in Princeton’s continued and new prosperity. Old-school values like hard work, integrity, untiring commitment, and endless generosity are what define Leticia. She works tirelessly to tackle social issues of great concern in our community. Child hunger, affordable housing, educational opportunity, civil rights, traffic safety: Leticia goes all out to advance inclusion and to make our great community even better.

Between April 28 and May 1, 2016, hundreds of thousands of people across the United States are expected to take a “stand” against racism and do their part to help advance the YWCA’s mission to eliminate racism and increase the collective impact in promoting racial justice and civil rights in the United States. Founded by the YWCA Trenton and YWCA Princeton in 2007, Stand Against Racism™ has been a successful campaign at YWCAs across the country and is now a signature campaign of YWCA USA. This campaign is designed to build a community among those who work for racial justice and to raise awareness about the negative impact of institutional and structural racism. This year, Stand Against Racism™ will focus on the national theme On A Mission for Girls of Color.

Photos revealing the widespread torture and execution of civilians by the Syrian government will form an exhibit and panel discussion at Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. The exhibit will contain 30 graphic and disturbing images documenting some of the men, women and children who were tortured and killed in Syrian detention centers. First coming to public attention in January 2014, the photos were taken by a former military photographer known as “Caesar,” who smuggled more than 55,000 images out of Syria on thumb drives after the conflict began to escalate. Caesar captured these images as part of his daily documentation assignment for the Government of Bashar al-Assad before the war began. The images, which have since been authenticated by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, document at least 11,000 victims under detainment in Syria. Each of the victims was tagged with a series of numbers providing the security branch that detained the victim, their prisoner number and a death number, all of which are evident in the photographs.

a full discussion among the council members amidst all of the public comment over the past few months. Some discussions questioned the boundaries of the District and the possibilities of exemptions for particular properties, but the Council approved the existing bound-

aries, which were introduced on March 10 and supported unanimously by the Planning Board last Thursday as compatible with the Master Plan. The one, apparently uncontroversial exception, an oversight the Council agreed to amend at their April 18 meeting, will involve removing from the historic designation a pathway in the

cemetery. Other appeals for exemptions may be heard at a later date. Witherspoon-Jackson, now Princeton’s 20th historic district, was originally developed as an African American community as a result of segregation and discrimination. African-American residents were later joined by Italian, Irish, and Hispanic families and others.

Wise Preservation Planning consultants and the town’s Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) both recommended historic designation for Witherspoon-Jackson, which, according to HPC, includes 395 properties. Speakers during the public hearing segment of the meeting emphasized the spirit of community among residents, the vitality of the area, the rich history, and the importance of preserving that history. Citing the difficult lives of many residents of Witherspoon- Jackson through history, Princeton Human Services vice-chair Leticia Fraga noted, “The historical designation is an affirmation of that struggle. The designation will be a proud moment in Princeton’s history.” Shirley Satterfield, longtime resident and historian, whose family has been in Princeton for six generations, recounted some of the rich history of the Witherspoon-Jackson District and noted how, in the 19th century, “They walked through Jugtown to ratify the 14th Amendment. Let us not have to walk through Princeton to get this 20th historic district.” Councilwoman Jenny Crumiller affirmed, “This is the right thing to do. This neighborhood deserves the same protection that other historic districts have. I hope the advantages to the neighborhood will eventually win over those who are against it.” “It’s been a long process, Mayor Liz Lempert concluded. “This is what democracy is all about.” Thanking

the audience for making the year-long deliberations “such a meaningful pro cess,” the mayor added, “It’s wonderful that the neighborhood turned out. It’s been wonderful to feel the love for each other and for the neighborhood.” —Donald Gilpin

Police Blotter On April 1, at 5 a.m. police responded to an apartment located on the 100 block of Witherspoon Street to investigate an assault. A 38-year-old Princeton resident had been struck in the face with a bottle, causing injury. A 24-yearold male from Princeton was located a short time later and placed under arrest. Bail was set at $50,000 with a 10 percent posting option. The victim was transported to the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro for treatment. The suspect was transported to the Mercer County Correction Center unable to post bail. On April 2, at 12:17 p.m., police investigated a report that someone threatened a patron inside the Ivy Inn. A knife was reportedly brandished during this incident, which is still under investigation. On April 3, at 3:25 a.m., a 24-year-old male from Princeton was arrested for hindering his own apprehension for providing false information to police, subsequent to a motor vehicle stop for improper use of high beams on Ewing Street. He was found to have a no-bail warrant that was issued by the Mercer County

Superior Court and two warrants from Princeton and West Windsor Township Municipal Courts in the total amount of $600. He was turned over to the Mercer County Sheriff’s Department. On April 6, at 9:22 a.m., police responded to Spring Street to investigate criminal mischief. Someone spray painted the word ‘Trump’ on a tree and ‘Kanye 2016’ on a utility pole. The investigation was turned over to the Detective Bureau for further investigation. On April 7, at 2:22 p.m., someone attempted to defraud a business on the first block of Hulfish Street by sending a deceiving email to the company requesting a wire transfer. No money was lost and the investigation was turned over to the Detective Bureau for further investigation. On April 11, at 7:59 a.m., police responded to a motor vehicle accident on South Harrison Street. A vehicle traveling northbound driven by a 21-year-old female from Seaside Heights lost control on the wet road while negotiating a curve in the roadway and entered the southbound lane where it struck a vehicle driven by a 59-year-old female from Pennington. Princeton First Aid and Rescue Squad, the Princeton Fire Department and Plainsboro Rescue had to extract the 21-year-old female from her vehicle and she was transported to the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro with a head injury. The other driver was also transported to UMCPP with chest, shoulder, and knee pain. Both were later released. The cause of the crash is under investigation.

s you read this letter, the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, N.J., is proceeding with plans to destroy one of the most significant historic sites in the nation. The property, a key part of the Princeton battlefield, is where George Washington launched a daring charge that secured victory and saved an American Revolution that appeared lost less than two weeks before. It is hard to imagine such a seminal moment in American history being bulldozed for faculty housing — but that is exactly the situation confronting us today. In response to the Institute’s plans, a

coalition of national and regional conservation and historic preservation groups has formed to save this endangered site before it is too late. The Save Princeton

The Battle of Princeton, fought January 3, 1777, was among the most significant engagements of the American Revolution. The culmination of the legendary 10-day campaign which began with Washington’s crossing of the Delaware, Princeton marked the first time Washington and his threadbare Continental Army defeated British regulars in the field. It also led to the liberation of New Jersey, demonstrating to both Americans and international observers that the Declaration

of Independence was more than mere words written on parchment.

This land is as central to the battle of Princeton as the field of Pickett’s Charge is to Gettysburg and as Omaha Beach is to D-Day.

Coalition (#SavePrinceton) is composed of the American Association for State and Local History; the American Revolution Institute of the Society of the Cincinnati; the Civil War Trust (through its Campaign 1776 initiative); The Cultural Landscape Foundation; the National Coalition for History; the National Parks Conservation Association; the National Trust for Historic Preservation; the Princeton Battlefield Society and the New Jersey Chapter of the Sierra Club.

Together, our organizations respectfully and formally request that the Institute for Advanced Study cease its development plans and pursue alternate building locations for the faculty housing project slated for the Washington’s Charge site. In this request, we are joined by our members and thousands of concerned Americans who have weighed in on this issue through petitions, letters and phone calls to New Jersey lawmakers and the Institute itself. The property, known locally as Maxwell’s Field, has been identified by the National Park Service, countless historians and numerous archaeologists as the site where Washington’s famous counterattack first struck the British lines. Part of the property is designated a National Historic Landmark. Historian David Hackett Fischer, in a letter to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, said, “This land is as central to the Battle of Princeton as the field of Pickett’s Charge is to Gettysburg and as Omaha Beach is to D-Day.”

The Institute’s proposed housing development will destroy the site where Washington — ignoring imminent danger to himself — personally led the right wing of the charge that forced the defeated British back into downtown Princeton. This portion of the Princeton Battlefield, left in

pristine condition for nearly 240 years, will be forever diminished as a result of the Institute’s housing plans. Future generations will be denied

the opportunity to wander a key part of the battlefield that has, until recently, remained unchanged since 1777.

In an earnest effort to assist the Institute in finding alternate venues for its faculty housing, the Civil War Trust, a Save Princeton Coalition member, has offered to acquire the Maxwell’s Field tract for $4.5 million (more than $1 million above the appraised value of the property). This goodwill offer still stands. The groups of the Save Princeton Coalition ask the Institute to reconsider this offer and work toward a mutually beneficial resolution that saves this historic site and outdoor classroom for future generations. The Princeton battlefield is an indelible part of our history, its ground hallowed by American and British blood, and it cannot be moved or replaced. We, the Save Princeton Coalition, along with concerned citizens from throughout the country, implore the Institute to work with us to preserve this national treasure. We stand ready to meet with the Institute for Advanced Study to find alternatives to the destruction of the Washington’s Charge site at Princeton.

Stop the destruction of Princeton battlefield. Join the fight at campaign1776.org/saveprinceton.

BOOK REVIEW

“Protest” Is the Word On the Street in Noriko Manabe’s “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised”

usical protest helps the Japanese “to voice what they cannot ordinarily express in words” according to Princeton resident Noriko Manabe’s The Revolution Will Not Be Televised: Protest Music After Fukushima (Oxford $27.95). It’s a formidable work: 433 pages, 35 pages of notes, a nearly 15-pagelong bibliography, with web icons interspersed throughout the text highlighting links to pronuclear public relations videos, press conferences, music videos, extensive footage from anti-nuclear demonstrations and rallies, plus color photos on a companion website. An associate professor in music studies at Temple University, Manabe has conducted field research on Japanese hip-hop and reggae scenes and the Japanese postFukushima antinuclear movement. She also has a practicing musician’s hands-on acquaintance with her subject from four years composing, arranging, and playing keyboards with the Princeton-based group Wayside Shrines, which broke up last fall. Although Paul Muldoon’s lyrics are seldom overtly political, the name of the group’s brilliant LP, The Word On the Street, could serve as an alternate title for Manabe’s book, which takes readers to demonstrations and performances on the streets of Japan. As Manabe makes clear, in Japan “even naming the disaster is fraught with issues,” the preferred term being “3.11,” a “metonym” that “refers to tragic events without naming their painful particulars,” such as the 9.0 magnitude earthquake and tsunami that struck on March 11, 2011, the 16,000 lives lost, the 3,000 missing, the 200,000 evacuees “who remain in temporary homes” while “millions more worry about the consequences of radiation” after the meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power complex, the worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl. The Language of Children The Chekhov story, “A Trifle from Life,” ends with a boy “trembling, stammering and crying” because he’s been deceived by an adult who had made it worse by callously dismissing the deception, as if the boy’s trust in him was not to be taken seriously: “It was the first time in his life that he had been brought into such coarse contact with lying.” Until then he hadn’t known that there were in the world “a great many things for which the language of children has no equivalent.” The story’s last words reminded me of being read to by my grandmother from a “grown-up” novel, John Hersey’s A Bell for Adano. At 10, I was pleased that she would share a real book about the war with me but I didn’t like the way she got around the swearing by going “blanketyblank.” During the same visit, I was glancing through another book by John Hersey when my grandmother pounced on it and took it away; you’d have thought I’d picked up a poisonous snake. Instead of

telling me why a book by a writer she admired was forbidden, all she said was, “it’s not for kids.” The book was Hiroshima. In the little bit of skimming I’d done I’d felt the sick-making shock of sentences like “Now not many people walked in the streets, but a great number sat and lay on the pavement, vomited, waited for death, and died.” My grandmother’s behavior upset and confused me almost as much as finding out that a hundred thousand people had been killed by the atomic bomb dropped by a plane like the ones my Army Air Force uncles had piloted. It seemed there was no acceptable, comprehensible equivalent in “the language of children” for Hiroshima. Naming Disaster Noriko Manabe’s compelling monograph demonstrates t h e w ays i n which nuclear power in 21stcentury Japan is hyped as a force for good by the government (think adult) providing electricity for the citizens (think children). Around this time last month, millions of Japanese observed a moment of silence to mark the fifth anniversary o f 3.11, a s it’s known by people who “do not want to see Fukushima become shorthand for nuclear disaster” and who object to the protest chant “No More Fukushima.” After noting that “the naming of horrific events is a political statement,” Manabe explains why she’s separating the Fukushima Daiichi accident from the other two disasters and will “reference it accordingly.” Otherwise, to refrain from using the word “echoes the avoidance of discussion of the nuclear accident, its consequences, and its policy implications in the media and the society at large.” Moreover, “a taboo air surrounds discourse on nuclear power,” and “antinuclear debate on television has been minimal” while “entertainers who speak out against nuclear power have been ignored or openly persecuted.” The Word on the Street In Manabe’s Cyberspace chapter, under

the subhead “Music as Mobilization,” she focuses on an Indie rock band from her birthplace Kyoto (she grew up in North Carolina) called Frying Dutchman whose “Human Error” is not a song so much as “an impassioned seventeen-minute rant over a simple two-chord acoustic riff on an E-bass pedal.” In a subtitled video shot in January 2012 on the banks of the Kamo River in Kyoto with life-goes-placidly-on views of people strolling across a bridge or cycling along the riverside, lead singer Lee Tabasco, a skinny youth with a Mohawk haircut, moves about mike in hand eloquently discoursing on “collective amnesia” and how “the electricity powering our lives” is “built on the suffering of others” as he demands that listeners “peer deep into Pandora’s box.” Within a month, the video had been seen over 400,000 times, and would be used by the group for mobilizing people to take part in a “parade of one million” to “memorialize those lost on 3.11 and to pro test against the continued use of nuclea r p o w e r.” A s M a n ab e explains, the “parade” became a vast community of people connected by play i n g t h e song from disparate locations at set times; the movement spread, spawning 62 , 55 0 o r ganized events and finding its way to a demonstration in New York City where Japanese and American women took turns reciting the English translation of Tabasco’s words. Existing simultaneously in cyberspace and real space, the combined versions of “Human Error” had about 1.2 million hits as of July 2015. The Real Terror The most dramatic case against Japan’s nuclear plants is made not in the music of protest but in the grim possibility of terrorist incursions like the ones hypothesized in an April 4 New York Times op-ed (“Could There Be a Terrorist Fukushima?”) and in an article in the April 7 Daily Beast (“Japanese Nuclear Plants Are Vulnerable to Terror Attacks”), which points out that

in Japan “the issue of nuclear security is treated with a strangely insouciant attitude by the authorities; unarmed guards keep watch outside of nuclear facilities, there is poor surveillance of sites and, incredibly, there are no mandated background checks on workers, allowing members of organized crime gangs access to radioactive material.” “Insouciant” — another word for which the language of children has no equivalent. Like the adult in Chekhov’s story offhandedly betraying a child’s trust, the nuclear establishment denying public debate on a matter of life and death apparently has the same casually dismissive attitude toward security. “Trust us” is the message — while the “child” in the form of the potential victims, the worldwide public, trembles, stammers, cries, protests, demonstrates, and ultimately, in the likely event of more “human error,” suffers, waits for death, and dies.

Hello Goodbye Wayside Shrines Wayside Shrines, which performed here during last years Communiversity, embodies its own memorial, given the group’s name, taken from a Paul Muldoon poem whose primary image is the makeshift shrine marking the scene of a car crash in which a young woman died. The shrine is formed of handwritten notes, “a cache of snapshots in a fogged-up globe,” not unlike other sidewalk, street, or wayside memorials that have come and gone around the world, including the one outside Okawa Elementary School in the Fukushima prefecture, and the extensive street memorial to those killed in the November 2015 massacre at the Bataclan in Paris, where the symbolic object of the attacks was the music of infidels otherwise known as rock and roll. ——— oriko Manabe will be giving a talk titled “Keeping it real: Authenticity and Japanese hip-hop” at City College, CUNY, on May 12. In June she will speak at conferences in Kobe and Lisbon. The Revolution Will Not Be Televised is the first part of a two-part monograph on the text and context of protest music in Japan. The second monograph, Revolution Remixed, examines the types and uses of intertextuality. —Stuart Mitchner

Sean Wilentz Reading At Labyrinth April 14

Prize-winning Princeton University history Professor Sean Wilentz will be reading from his new book, The Politicians and the Egalitarians: The Hidden History of American Politics, at Labyrinth on Thursday, April 14 at 6 p.m. T h e N e w Yor k T i m e s quoted Mr. Wilentz in the April 11 story “Hamilton and History: Are they In Synch,” to the effect that Hamilton “was more a man for the 1 percent than the 99 percent.” Turning him into “an up-from-under hero seems dissonant amidst the politics of 2016.” Novelist Philip Roth calls The Politicians and the Egalitarians “A shrewd and engaging assessment of the variable American tradition of egalitarianism, particularly as manifested in the political lives of Thomas Jefferson, John Quincy Adams, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, right up through Lyndon Johnson and his Great Society — scrupulously detailed, elegantly written, incisively argued, and effectively combative.” According to Eric Foner, “S ean Wilent z is a rare historian who writes with confidence about the entire scope of American history and who does so in a way accessible to a broad reading public.

Reading and Workshop At West Windsor Arts Center

Novelist and essayist Sung J. Woo will be visiting the West Windsor Arts Center (WWAC) on Sunday, April 17 to present a reading and a workshop on writing the personal essay. Author of two published novels Love Love (2015) and Everything Asian (2009) and numerous short stories and essays, Mr. Woo will conduct the workshop from 1-3:30 p.m. ($15 for WWAC members, $20 for non-members) and follow up with a free public reading from 4-4:45 p.m. Writers at all levels of experience, from high school juniors and seniors to adults are welcome. Pre-registration at www.westwindsorarts.org is recommended. The theme for the workshop is “Home is Where” and is tied to an upcoming exhibit at WWAC, July 10 to September 11. “Through examples and instruction, our featured author will help participants dig through life cycle transitions, personal and situational challenges, tragedies and upheavals in order to find pivotal remnants of places, objects, people, feelings, sounds, sights, and foods,” said WWAC President Elane Gutterman, She noted that the workshop would address the theme of home “both from the perspective of parents trying so hard to survive and keep old country ways and children gripped by a new country, eager to shed differences.”

Boheme Opera Presents Solid Performance Of “Carmen” in Its Spring Production

ver the past quarter century, Boheme Opera NJ has provided opportunities for up-and-coming singers to hone their skills, as well as more established artists to delve into major roles of standard operatic repertory. For its spring production of the 27th season, Boheme Opera NJ presented one of the classics — Georges Bizet’s immortal Carmen, introducing a high-powered mezzo to the regional opera community. Full of the great melodies that characterized opera comique in 19th-century Paris, Carmen was popular from the outset, and has remained one of the world’s most beloved productions to this day. Boheme Opera’s presentation this past Friday night (with a repeat performance Sunday afternoon) at the College of New Jersey’s Kendall Theater centered on a simple set, often just a few tables, in front of a digital backdrop which established the mood for each scene. Technical Consultant Jason Milstein and Lighting Designer Mike Voytko created an ambience which moved the story into the 21st century. The most impressive scene was the opening of Act III, with a haunting moon bathing the stage in light as an ominously foretelling ace of spades unfolded within the moon during the “Card” scene. As Carmen, mezzo-soprano Julia Mintzer took immediate command of the stage and the role. From her opening “Habanera,” Ms. Mintzer was clearly a cut above the singers heard to that point in the opera, and she never came onstage without sultriness and vocal craftiness. Her scenes with tenor Patrick Miller’s Don José were among the most dramatic of the production. Mr. Miller emotionally conveyed the Act II “Flower Song” well to Carmen, and provided an especially graceful ending to the aria. Mr. Miller was also vocally well paired with soprano Lyssandra Stephenson, who sang the peasant girl Micaela, Don José’s other love interest. Recognized as a “Rising Star,” Ms. Stephenson clearly has a great future in lyric soprano roles, but with the layout of the Kendall stage and a large orchestra in the pit, she was hard to hear at times. It was a lovely voice, most impressive in the upper registers. The toreador character Escamillo requires

commanding presence and vocal abilities to effectively act as a foil to Don José’s pursuit of Carmen. Baritone Constantinos Yiannoudes had the most extensive performance background of any of the cast members, and carried the action well in the “Toreador” scenes, including the character’s signature aria. Scenes among Carmen, Don José, and Escamillo were strong, often accompanied by a chorus well trained by Brittany Montoro. Additional choral performance was provided by members of the Trenton Children’s Chorus, prepared by Tanya Coyne. The Trenton Children’s Chorus singers were divided dramatically and by costume into red and blue theatrical groups, and were always ready for the conductor when it was time to sing. Solid performers singing minor roles included baritones Kevin Grace (Zuniga) and Charles Schneider (Dancairo), and tenor Christopher Hodson (Remendado). Aiding Carmen in her often devious schemes were soprano Brynn Terry as Frasquita and mezzo Maja Lisa FritzHuspen as Mercedes. Particularly in the Act III “Card” scene, their two voices together with Carmen were a precise and convincing trio. To accompany the singers, conductor Joseph Pucciatti assembled a solid orchestra, which although overpowering at times and showing a few tuning problems here and there, held up well throughout the performance. Mr. Pucciatti maintained good control over both orchestra and singers and a number of instrumentalists provided elegant solos to accentuate the mood of a scene. he few flaws in the performance came from inconsistencies in the direction and an unusual approach to costuming. Particularly in crowd scenes, singers occasionally seemed to be stuck in dead space, and the staging of couples dancing during Carmen’s “Habanera” detracted from the rawness of Carmen’s sultry proclamation that she is in charge. The costuming was disappointing in the missed opportunities to convey the vivid colors of the opera’s Spanish theme, although Carmen and several other characters appeared from time to time in sinuous flamenco dress. However, dressing the women in jeans and casual wear was just a minor distraction in what otherwise was a strong operatic evening. —Nancy Plum

“Yours in the Hustle,” A Conversation With Bracho

Playwright Ricardo Abreu Bracho will discuss the subject of Latinx professionals working in the contemporary American theater with Lewis Center in the Arts’ Program in Theater professor Brian Herrera. He will read from a selection of his works on Wednesday, April 13 at 3 p.m. in Room 105 at the Carl Fields Center on Prospect Street on the Princeton University campus. The event is free and open to the public. The discussion is par t of Her rera’s spr ing the ater/gender and sexuality/ American studies/African American studies cross-listed course, “Movements for Diversity in American Theater.” The course offers an intensive critical, creative,

and advocacy by theater ar tist-activists aiming to transform American theatermaking around principles of access, equity, inclusion, and diversity. Bracho is a nationally renowned queer, Chicano, activist-playwright who also works as an essayist, producer, dramaturge, educator, and organizer. The event will begin with Bracho reading from a selection of his dramatic and critical works before engaging in a public conversation with Herrera. Bracho will detail a forceful critique of what he terms “my semi-retirement from American theater and my obdurate dissidence in relation to the construction of what I see as a false commons for Latina/o theater professionals.” His conversation with Herrera will hinge on issues of race in the arts and Bracho’s background as an activist, queer, Latinx artist-scholar without formal institutional support.

Planning Ahead for Planting Brings the Best Results for a Flourishing Garden How does your garden grow? It’s probably not in full-fledged bloom yet, but it is definitely time to get started. As so often in life, preparation is key. Preparing the soil, adding compost and mulch, planning for color and texture, sun and shade are all very important considerations. “Gardening is great for the mind, body, and spirit,” says Lisa Miccolis, owner of Bountiful Gardens at 135 Route 206 in Hillsborough. She also owns garden centers in Ewing Township and Chester. “Our goal is always to inspire our customers to garden. We believe it promotes wellness, and we even work with companies to add gardening to their wellness programs for employees. “Spring is a terrific time to make changes in your yard by creating a new garden or expanding your existing garden,” she adds. “April is an excellent month to work with the soil because the temperatures are usually mild, and we get a lot of rain so digging is easier.”

At-Home Tests Ms. Miccolis recommends turning over the soil and fertilizing in April, and she says that it is also important to test the soil’s pH level, especially if it is a new area to be planted. “There are at-home tests you can buy to test the soil yourself,” she explains. “The results will identify the acidic or alkaline level of the soil, and this affects how plants absorb nutrients. Since different plants thrive in different pH levels, the test will help determine what to plant and whether you need to treat the soil with amendments.” Ornamental shrubs, flowers, turf, and vegetables grow best in slightly acidic soils, points out Ms. Miccolis. Also, at a pH level of 6.5 most nutrients are readily available for plants to use. Levels of pH can be adjusted if a soil test indicates the soil is too acidic or alkaline. “In addition to determining your soil’s pH, a soil test will indicate your soil’s fertilization needs.” she adds. “This is very important for sustainable landscape gardening

because it eliminates spending money on unnecessary fertilizer. This reduction of unneeded fertilizer also reduces contamination of the environment.” Type of soil is another factor, she notes. Is it easy to shovel, does it crumble? “Clay soil is what I come across most often here in central New Jersey,” says Ms. Miccolis. “Really hard clay soil and shale lack nutrients, are difficult to grow roots in, and they collect moisture. You should add good soil and compost to these areas and try to aerate the soil as much as possible before planting. Many soils, especially sandy and heavy clay soils, need a lot of organic matter worked into them to produce a soil best suited for perennials, for example. “Each year, three to four inches of organic material should be worked into the top 10 to 12 inches of soil. This can easily be done before perennials are planted. If plants are established, spread the organic material GLORIOUS GARDENS : “We plant containers that our customers bring in or purchase so that they evenly between the plants have exactly what they want without having to do all the work at home.” Lisa Miccolis, owner of Bountiful Gardens in Hillsborough, is shown working on a special container garden.

and work in as much as possible. Worms will also help to mix additional material into the soil.” Natural Organics Ms. Miccolis recommends the Espoma line of products for amending and feeding plants. “These products contain natural organics which are longer lasting and break down slowly for steady continuous feeding. They add organic matter and are safe for people, pets, and the environment.” Planting in April and May is the best time to get started, depending on the plant, she adds. “All perennials, shrubs, and trees that are permanent and live in our climate zone can be planted now. It’s a great time because we usually get a lot of rain in the

spring, and the weather is cool, which is an ideal situation for root growth. This means your plants start establishing before the summer heat and dry periods begin. “Some great perennials that I would recommend for having fabulous foliage are pulmonaria, heuchera, artemesia, sedum, and variegated iris, to name a few. Soil that is ideal for growing perennials is loose and easily workable. A sandy loam soil that is well-drained, fertile, and contains an abundance of organic material would grow fabulous perennials. However, many of us do not have this type of soil in our garden, and most soils need to be amended somewhat to provide an environment in which perennials thrive. “Once you have the list of plants that tolerate the sun exposure in your area, then you will need to consider your moisture conditions in that space. Is it very moist with poor drainage? Does the water collect? If this is the case, there are not that

many plants you will be able to use but there are some, and these are often used in rain gardens, which have become very popular. “A rain garden is a garden that takes advantage of rainfall and storm water runoff in its design and plant selection. Usually, it is a small garden which is designed to withstand the extremes of moisture and concentrations of nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus that are found in storm water runoff.” For those who look forward to planting annuals, such as the popular geraniums, petunias, impatiens, snap dragons, etc., Ms. Miccolis advises waiting until May. “The rule of thumb has always been Mother’s Day or simply midto-late May. You want to be sure the last spring frost has passed.” Colors and Textures Flower gardening is most popular in spring and summer, she adds. After a long Continued on Next Page

winter without much color, “Everyone is starving for some color, and flowers are a feast for the eye! My experience dealing with do-it-yourself gardeners is that they all have different tastes. Most gardeners who do not have any formal design training mix all colors and textures and create a masterpiece of their own. And thanks to the internet, garden magazines, and garden television shows, the home gardener is now learning that taking the trouble to plan can save time and money “Trained and experienced landscape designers and architects, of course, plan everything — the colors and textures in the garden, the timing of the blooms in the garden, etc.” “My philosophy, that I share with our customers who come in looking for guidance, is that planning your gardens for foliage color and texture will provide much more satisfaction than just flowering colors. Flowers come and go. I see flowers as a bonus, but I am more concerned with the foliage color and texture, its height and width.” Flowers can require more maintenance, she points out, adding, however, that it can also be relaxing for many people. For example, “I enjoy ‘deadheading’ flowers in my garden. It’s very meditative for me. Maintenance is an important consideration, especially for those who don’t have the time to spend tending the garden. As Ms. Miccolis says, Continued on Page 28

survive. However, there are plants that deer do not like, and they will usually pass them by. At Bountiful Gardens, we have many plants, shrubs, and trees that we categorize as deer resistant.” Gardening continues to be one of the most popular outdoor activities, with a myriad of benefits — from relaxation to exercise to the intangible pleasure of seeing a beautiful blossom or vegetable materialize from a tiny seed. As Ms. Miccolis points out, “Gardening is a great way to spend time alone, or with family and friends. It is rewarding. I have also

noticed that younger people are becoming more involved in gardening. I am seeing more 20+ year-olds than ever before. I think they are concerned about what they are eating, and they want to become good stewards of the planet.” Whatever one’s age, there is much to be appreciated, and always more to learn about the pleasures of gardening. As Thomas Jefferson, in his later years, wrote to a friend about his gardens at Monticello, “I may be an old man, but I am a young gardener.” —Jean Stratton

“In my experience over the years, people do not have as much time available to do a lot of maintenance so they are looking for low maintenance plants. Overall, low maintenance is the trend. We sell so many container gardens that are all ready to go and can just be set by the door. “Also, flowering shrubs and trees do not need much pruning unless you plant them in a space that is smaller than they need to grow, which actually happens very often. The landscape industry is trying to educate gardeners to plan correctly and plant the right plant in the right space to avoid such maintenance.” Early Spring Vegetable gardens are becoming more and more popular, adds Ms, Miccolis. “People want clean organic vegetables, and the best way to know for sure what you are getting is to grow it yourself. Organic vegetables cost more in the store, so growing them is the only way some people can afford to have them. “For vegetable gardening, there are vegetables you can plant early in spring and again in the fall that prefer Providing quality craftsmanship since 1980 cooler weather and that can Providing quality craftsmanship since 1980 even tolerate hard frosts (25 ProvidingEnhancing quality craftsmanship the life in your since home 1980 to 28 degrees).

Calvin and Company Reunite for Sequel With a Social Conscious

as well as news stories about the increase in drive-by shootings on the South Side of Chicago. The situation has Calvin thinking that it might be better to relocate the establishment to a safer section of the city. More importantly, he’s worried about the safety of his adolescent son, Jalen (Michael Rainey, Jr.), who is attending the Holy Cross Catholic School. It seems that on his way home, Jalen has to negotiate his way through a gauntlet of gangstas who are pressuring him to join their gangs. Street violence appears to be claiming a young person’s life on a daily basis, with some of it hitting a little too close to home. This inspires Calvin to call a peace summit in a desperate attempt to negotiate a ceasefire between the bitter rivals, the Vice Lords and the G.D.s. In addition to addressing the escalating murder rate, the picture has plenty of its trademark levity. One moment, we’re treated to an old-fashioned bat tle- ofthe-sexes. Next, there’s a debate over President Obama’s commitment to the black community. And the best comic relief comes from trash-talking OneStop, who has an endless supply of market items for sale : nickel bags of weed, baby pit bulls, and watermelon-flavored fried chicken. Directed by Malcolm Lee (The Best Man), Barbershop: The Next Cut is a pleasant surprise because it combines the campy comedy with a serious social agenda. Easily the best film in the series, the movie entertains and also delivers a sobering message that’s long overdue. Excellent (HHHH).

here’s been a big change at Calvin’s Barbershop since the last movie was made over 10 years ago. The male sanctuary has been converted to a unisex salon, and some feisty female employees — including manager Angie (Regina Hall), flamboyant Draya (Nicki Minaj), and cynical Bree (Margot Bingham) — have brought a new flava to the former man cave. In addition to Ice Cube as Calvin, among the regulars reprising their roles are Jazmin Lewis as his wife Jennifer, Eve as Terri, Cedric the Entertainer as Eddie, Anthony Anderson as J.D., Sean Patrick Harris as Jimmy, and Troy Garrity as Isaac. The cast has several newcomers; most notably scene-stealing J.B. Smoove as One-Stop; Deon Cole as Dante; and Common, whose character, Rashad, is married to Eve.

Finger and leg dexterity allow us to dynamically stabilize our interactions with objects and the world around us, such as when buttoning a shirt or landing from a jump. It is critical to chart the development or loss of dexterity in people recovering from a stroke or injury, athletes in training and in healthy growing children. Quantifying this varied ability so that it can be accurately measured has been a challenge, however. The laboratory of Valero-Cuevas has developed the strength-dexterity paradigm to quantify dexterity of the fingers and legs. He will present several clinical and athletic studies indicating the utility of this approach to understanding the integrity of the neuromuscular system in health and disease. Moreover, by quantifying expected changes in dexterity with age, and revealing unexpected sex differences, he will propose avenues for understanding and promoting dexterity in clinical populations and elite athletes.

Sticking Together After Dismissal of Coach Bates, PU Men’s Lax Battles Hard in Loss to Stony Brook

t was uncharted territory last week as turmoil engulfed the Princeton University men’s lacrosse team. After Princeton head coach Chris Bates apparently elbowed a Brown player during the third quarter of the Tigers’ 19-8 loss to the Bears on April 2, his behavior and job status sparked a firestorm of controversy. Two days later, Bates was placed on administrative leave while the University reviewed the incident. Last Wednesday, Bates was dismissed and assistant Matt Madalon was named as the interim coach for the remainder of the 2016 campaign with a national search for a permanent head coach to be held after the season. Dealing with the exit of Bates, who had a record of 53-42 in his seven seasons with the Tigers and led the team to the 2010, 2012 ,and 2015 Ivy League championships, the Princeton players did their best to circle the wagons. “It was obviously an emotional week; we have got a really solid crew here and the character in the locker room is really strong,” said senior attackman and captain Ryan Ambler. “Everyone has really stuck together. Everyone is there for each other and had each other’s back. It was definitely a hard time for everyone. It is not a time where it is just one guy making a difference, it is a collective effort.” The Tigers needed a big effort as they faced a big challenge in taking on highpowered and eighth-ranked Stony Brook last Saturday. “We were focusing on lacrosse and the task at hand this week, which was Stony Brook,” said Ambler. “We are going to move game by game here and we feel like everything is in front of us in terms of the Ivy League. We were happy to compete.” Putting its difficult week in the rear view mirror, Princeton showed plenty of competitive fire against the Seawolves, battling back from an early 7-2 deficit to draw within 7-6 in the third quarter and 11-10 early in the fourth before losing 13-10 to drop to 2-7 overall. “I think it is just the ebb and flow of the game, sometimes we go down a couple of goals in the game and sometimes we go up a couple of goals early in a game,” said Ambler, who tallied a goal and two assists in the defeat. “Coach Madalon says it all the time, it is a game of runs so we had our runs, they had their runs. It is just part of the game in general.” Sophomore Sam Bonafede, who enjoyed a career game as he went 19-for-27 on face-offs, sparked some runs for the Tigers. “He had a great day in the face-off X, I was really proud of his effort,” said Ambler. “He had a really hard week of practice. He was dedicated to being the guy at the face-off X the entire week and he did very well.” Ambler did very well setting up Gavin

McBride, assisting on two of the junior star’s three goals. “He is a great player, every day in practice we are trying to figure out new ways to get the ball to each other,” added Ambler. “More times than not, we do and we are lucky that we can find each other on the back side through different cuts. He is just a great kid; I love playing with him.” In reflecting on the loss, Ambler acknowledged that the Tigers should have gotten more balls in the back of the net. “I felt like we didn’t capitalize on some opportunities,” added Ambler. “I think offensively we have to take accountability for it because our defense played really strong. There were times that we didn’t bail them out so I think the offense really needed to make some more plays today. That starts with me and that goes all the way down.” Known for his flashy passing, Ambler has enjoyed getting the opportunity to be the quarterback of the Princeton attack. “It is a fun role; my dad is a coach so growing up he put me in the mindset of really seeing the game from a different angle,” said Ambler, a 6’1, 190-pound native from Rydal, Pa. who now has 13 goals and a team-high 18 assists this season for a team-best 31 points. “It has helped me tremendously in my career.” Having started since his freshman season. Ambler is piling up the career milestones as he now has 70 goals and 83 assists. “I would attribute that to playing with really good players like Tom Schreiber, Mike MacDonald, and Kip Orban and even guys here now like Gavin McBride and Riley Thompson,” said Ambler, who is now 12th all-time at Princeton in points and ninth in assists. “They set me up and there are times when I find them, they are open, and they bury the ball.” Interim head coach Madalon acknowledged it was a trying week for everyone around the Princeton program. “It was just emotional, that would be the best way to describe it but our guys did well and we tried to distract ourselves by the fact that we had to prepare for a top 10 team,” said Madalon. “We tried to just give them a little spark, we tried to change tempo in the game a little bit to be a little more aggressive in certain situations and at different times of the game. It was nothing drastic because you don’t want to rattle the guys. Any way you shake it, the situation was a rallying point.” The Tigers faced a tough situation against Stony Brook by digging the early hole. “Unfortunately we often find ourselves down early,” said Madalon. “Our M.O. is us clawing back and I wish we could start games a little stronger but our guys did a really nice job.” Madalon was proud of the job that Bonafede did on face-offs.

STICKING TOGETHER: Princeton University men’s lacrosse player Ryan Ambler prepares to unload the ball in a game earlier this season. Last Saturday, senior attackman and captain Ambler tallied a goal and two assists as Princeton fell 13-10 to Stony Brook. It was the Tigers’ first game under interim head coach Matt Madalon, who took the helm of the program when head coach Chris Bates was dismissed last week in the wake of a sideline incident during Princeton’s 19-8 loss to Brown on April 2. The Tigers, who moved to 2-7 overall with the defeat to Stony Book, will resume Ivy League play when they host Dartmouth on April 16. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) “Sam was excellent today,” asserted Madalon. “We made some adjustments with him this week. He really put in the work and that is what paid off.” Junior midfielder Currier gave Princeton some very good work, tallying two goals and an assist with seven ground balls. “He is a heck of a player in terms of his all-around skill set,” said Madalon. “He was able to help himself out and our guys played well off of him.” Ambler played well in leading the attack. “Ryan is our leader down there, he is just so impressive in helping us manage offensive possessions and making calls,” said Madalon. “He just really understands the time and tempo of the game. We are on the same wave length there; I can’t say enough about him.” While Princeton needs to play sharper to get back on the winning track after four straight losses, Madalon believes that his players gave an impressive effort in defeat last Saturday. “I think as a staff we need to do a better job to prepare our guys to make plays in certain situations but I think the guys did an excellent job and it was a good stepping stone for us,” said Madalon.

Having dealt with a rough situation, the Tigers are looking to do some damage in Ivy League play and making a run for one of the four spots in the league’s postseason tournament. “The post-game message was that after a very tiring and emotional week, we are proud of our group,” said Madalon. “We still have everything ahead of us. We are looking forward to getting back at it. It is just keep fine-tuning our systems so we are going to be able to control the pace and the tempo as we get into those Ivy games.” In Ambler’s view, the group’s best lacrosse is ahead of it. “I think we are starting to really figure it out, the tough part about it is that we are 2-7 now,” said Ambler. “We want to be playing good lacrosse the next two weeks going into the Ivy League because we still have that in front of us. We need to be playing as hard as we can. I think that our systems are great. I think that our talent is great. I think the coaching is great. I think the character is great. We just need to put it together for four quarters. There are times when we have mental lapses, which is OK, but we need to minimize those.” —Bill Alden

Making Steady Progress Since Opening Regatta, PU Women’s Open Crew Primed to Battle Yale, USC Facing the defending national champion Ohio State and reigning Iv y League champ Brown in its opening regatta this spring, the Princeton University women’s open crew didn’t waste any time seeing where it stood among the elite boats in the country. “Each year is a new year so we were really excited to test our speed early on,” said Princeton head coach Lori Dauphiny of the March 26 competition. “I don’t know if I would have chosen to race those crews first but at the same time it was a very good test to see where our speed was early in the season and then how to capitalize on that in the future.” While the top varsity 8 finished third, it more than held its own as Brown took first in 6 :35.4 over the 2,000-meter course while Ohio State was second in 6:38.0 and Princeton was a close third in 6:38.3. “I would say that it was a respectable race and that the crews that we raced against were fast,” said Dauphiny. “They have proven to be fast in their more recent races so that is a good sign for us because we pushed them hard and they continue to be ranked at the top. It was not a bad starting point.” The Tigers came into the spring ready to push hard after a disappointing stretch drive in 2015 which saw the top 8 finish third as the Ivy League Championships and 12th at the NCAA Championships. “I think that everybody was pretty fired up to make improvements f rom last year,” said Dauphiny. “I think last year was just a challenging mix of people. We actually did a nice job and now when I look back on it, the seniors last year taught t he ret ur ners so much about work ethic and standards. So even though the results of last year were

frustrating, I think the kids did learn a lot and those returners learned from those seniors who graduated and they are carrying that on.” In Dauphiny’s view, the team’s three senior cap tains, Mary Ann McNulty, Erin Reelick, and Meghan Wheeler, are setting a high standard this spring. “We have a large team so the three captains have actually worked out very well,” said Dauphiny. “They each have their strengths and they sort of div ide and conquer and work together. They have different strengths so they bring different things to the team.” Learning from the opening day effort, the ninth-ranked Tigers bounced back with a strong effort against Columbia on April 2 as the varsity 8 cruised to victory, posting a time of 6:29.5 with the Lions coming in at 6:56.0. “The Columbia race was an interesting one because it was a dual race and we don’t have too many dual races,” said Dauphiny. “It w as on ou r h om e course so we sort of honed our race plan because our race plan going into the first race was our first attempt. This time we could step back and say what worked on our race and what didn’t work in our race and let’s execute it in this race. I feel like it was a step forward in terms of learning the race plan and then executing it.” Last weekend’s regatta at the Cayuga Inlet in Ithaca, N.Y. against No. 17 Harvard and Cornell in the annual Class of 1975 Cup Regatta didn’t go as planned logistically as it was moved up to Friday from Saturday due to expected frigid conditions. The Tigers, though, still executed well as the top boat clocked a time of 6:23.5 in winning the race with Harvard-Radcliffe next in 6:32.6 and Cornell taking third in 6:39.3. “It became a day trip for us; we went there early in the morning came home late at night,” said Dauphiny. “We did a practice on the course. We rested and ate lunch and then we raced later in the day. That is unusual for us and that was after a 5-hour bus ride but Harvard had the same thing going. I was proud of them for handling the situation and being ready to race that evening.

We raced between 5:30 and 7. They did a great job. That is not an easy course and they executed well and more importantly, they were ready to race, which was good for me and for them to experience.” The performance last Friday was a confidence builder for Princeton across the board as the second varsity 8 and varsity 4 also posted big wins. “I think they were pretty pleased with it too in all the boats so that was a nice thing,” said Dauphiny. “I would say that the highlight of the Cornell/Harvard race was that it was really a solid race for all boats. It was a good team performance.” The Tigers will be looking for another solid performance this weekend as they host No. 5 Yale and 11thrankled USC on April 16 in the race for the Eisenberg Cup. “I think we are right back into in the swing of things preparing for those t wo boats,” said Dauphiny. “I hope that it will be very tight racing, those crews are both good. Yale is ranked ahead of us and USC is ranked just below us. We are super appreciative that USC will come all that way. The highlight of this coming race is that it is east versus west. There is not a lot of crossover usually so this will be big within our league and nationally.” Dauphiny, for her part, sees good things on the horizon this spring for her rowers. “They are making strides forward weekly in different areas, whether it be race plan or whether it be some technical changes, and that is good,” said Dauphiny. “I feel like they had had a taste of good racing and speed and that they have an understanding of where we have to be and we are not there yet. That is huge. I feel the same way about the 2V as well. The 2V had a really tough opening race. I would have to give the whole team, but especially those top varsity boats, a lot of credit for remaining positive and driven to an end result. I am excited for the whole team.” —Bill Alden

Back to Speed After Being Derailed by Knee Injury, McNulty Stars as No. 11 PU Women’s Lax Tops Yale Ellie McNulty got derailed early in her freshman year as she started her career with the Princeton Universit y women’s lacrosse team. The midfielder tore her ACL in the fall of 2014 and only hit the practice field late last spring. Coming into this season at full speed, McNulty is looking to make up for lost time. “It is is amazing, I am so excited to be out on the field again,” said McNulty, a 5’8 native of Arnold, Md. “I am not taking it granted at all, I love the opportunity to play. Getting game experience is really important. As the season has gone on, I have gotten comfortable w ith my teammates and playing as a team.” Last Saturday, McNulty took advantage of her scoring opportunities, tallying a career-high four goals as 11th-ranked Princeton rolled to a 16-5 win over Yale, improving to 8-2 overall and 3-0 Ivy League. M c N u l t y c r e d i te d h e r breakout game to the Tiger attack being in synch. “I think we really clicked on offense, we were seeing each other really well,” said McNulty, who now has 13 goals and three assists on the season. “We really played as a team today; it was a great team win.” The Tigers clicked from the start against Yale, jumping out to an early 6-0 lead. “We really wanted to get a fast start; play our offense and our defense and play the way we like to play at both ends of the field,” said McNulty, who also had three ground balls, two draws, and one caused turnover in the win over Yale. “I think we really had that opportunity to do that.” P r i nce ton h e ad coach Chris Sailer, whose team had won three straight onegoal games coming into the contest on Saturday, was looking for the Tigers to produce a better all-around performance. “We wanted to put to gether a really good game at both ends,” said Sailer. “We have been playing really well at either end in stretches but we were hoping to really get on track and be able to put some big numbers today and play well all over the field.” Surveying the score sheet showed seven different players scoring goals and three others contributing assists, Sailer smiled. “I think that is one thing that I am really happy about, having such balanced scoring and having so many different kids stepping up,” said Sailer, whose team outshot Yale 50-25. “Seeing Elizabeth George with three goals, that was great. Seeing Kathryn Hallett get two goals and having our middies scoring some more was really nice.” The Tigers got a very nice contribution from McNulty as she led the way with her four goals.

“Ellie is a fast kid, she can get up and down the field,” said Sailer. “She has a nice stick and I think she has really come along well this year for us. She was able to find the net. I think she is continuing to improve and grow. She is good on the draw and has played nice defense for us so it is good to see her having a game like that.” The team’s battle-tested defensive unit had another big game as it stifled the Bulldogs. “The line defense is so experienced and Ellie (DeGarmo) is playing so well behind them,” said Sailer, whose defense is led by seniors Liz Bannantine and Maddy Lynch, along with juniors Madeline Rodriguez and Amanda Leavell. “Jen Cook, our defensive coordinator, does a great

job w it h t hem and t hey have great systems. They are very solid.” Princeton will look to keep up its solid play as it hosts No. 1 and defending national champion Maryland (12-0 overall) on April 13 and No. 20 Cornell (9-1 overall, 4-0 Ivy) on April 16. “It is a great opportunity to play the best team out there, the defending national champions,” said Sailer. “It is always exciting when you can challenge yourself at that level and see what you can do. You are playing the No. 1 team, you want to compete, that is the main thing for us. We just have to believe in ourselves, go hard, play well and see what happens.” In McNult y’s view, the Tigers are up for that challenge. “We are really excited for Maryland; it is a good test for us,” said McNulty. “We are looking forward to it, they are a great team.” —Bill Alden

PU Track Coach Farrell Announces Retirement

Peter Farrell, the only head coach in the history of the Princeton University women’s track and cross countr y programs, announced his retirement last week, effective at the end of the 2016 season. Farrell, a former track star at Notre Dame, has guided the program since it went from a club sport to varsity status in 1978 and is the only Princeton coach who has led a varsity team since its inception. During his tenure, the Tigers have won 27 Ivy League te a m t it le s. Far rell has coached 55 All-Americas and 182 Ivy League champions. He led the program to the Ivy League Triple Crown in 1980-81 and 2010-11 and is the only Ivy women’s coach ever to achieve this feat even once. The cross country team has been a regional and national power under his leadership. The squad posted back-to-back fifth-place finishes at the NCAA Championships in 2008 and 2009. The Tigers have finished among the top 15 teams at the NCA A Championship meet six times in the last 12 years. With 11 NCAA team appearances, seven Tigers have earned All-America honors. Winning nine Ivy League Heptagonal titles, a highlight came in 2009 when the Tigers had a 1-23-4-5 finish for a perfect score — something that had never been done in Ivy League history. During the winter season, Farrell has helped to guide the indoor track & field team to nine Ivy titles. Fourteen Tigers have competed at the NCAA Championships, most recently first-team All-America Cecilia Barowski, who was sixth in the 800 at this year’s indoor national championship meet. Outdoors, Farrell has claimed nine Ivy League titles and has sent 27 Tigers to the NCAA Championships. A total of 23 student-athletes have been award 29 All-America honors. “It has truly been an honor to coach here,” said Farrell. “There have been incredible experiences and memories that I will always hold dear. I’ve been proud of the young women I have coached and all they have achieved not only on the track here as student-athletes, but the incredible people they become after graduating.” A national search for Farrell’s successor will begin this spring. ———

Tiger Women’s Tennis Falls to Harvard

Princeton University has decided to discontinue its sprint football program, effective this spring. Princeton is one of only three Ivy League schools that offer the program, and sprint football is its only varsity team (out of 38 ) that plays in a league that is not associated either with the Ivy League or with the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). “Spr int football has a long tradition at Princeton and alumni who have participated in the sport speak eloquently about the important contributions it made to their undergraduate experience,” said Princeton President Christopher L. Eisgruber. “But in recent years serious questions have been raised about the safety of the sport as currently constituted at Princeton, the inability of Princeton teams to compete successfully, and changes that have taken place in the league in which it plays. We regret having to take this action, but we do not believe we can sustain the program at a level that is safe for our students and meets the high standards we achieve in the rest of our varsity athletics program.” Princeton’s sprint football program began in 1934. The sport was initially known as 150-pound football, reflecting the weight limit for players (originally 150 pounds, but now 172 pounds). At Princeton the team includes no members who have been specifically recruited for the sport, and it frequently includes a substantial number of players who did not play football prior to coming to Princeton. Since its last league title in 1989, Princeton has had 18 winless seasons. Since its last league win in 1999, the program has lost 106 consecutive league games, and over the last five seasons it has had to forfeit four times. ———

Princeton Football Names Tri-Captains

nament, Princeton opened its final margin to 13 shots over the runner-up and host Hoyas. The title is Princeton’s third at the event, as it won in 2007 and 2008. It’s Princeton’s second team win of the 2015-16 season and first of the spring, along with the Lehigh Invitational to close the fall. Individually, junior Hana Ku and senior Alex Wong co-led Princeton at +17, joining Georgetown’s Jacquelyn Eleey as one of three players at that number. St. John’s’ Anna Kim turned in a 10shot margin over that trio to win medalist honors at +7. Tiger freshman A mber Wang finished seventh at +22, five shots behind Ku and Wong, and freshman Tiana Lau was two shots back of Wang at +24, tying for 12th overall. Junior Jordan Lippetz completed the Tiger five, tying for 18th overall at +27. Princeton is next in action when it competes in the Brown Bear Match Play from April 16-17 at the Carnegie Abbey Club in Portsmouth, R.I. ———

PU Sports Roundup

PU Sprint Football To Be Discontinued

Rising seniors Chad Kanoff, Joe Rhattigan, and Dorian Williams were named tri-captains for the 2016 Princeton University football team last week following the final practice of the spring season. “I’m really excited for these three guys, and I think they’ll be great captains for our team,” said Princeton head coach Bob Surace. “I love the attitude, effort, and leadership that they have shown this entire offseason. I think there were a number of really good candidates from this senior class, and we’ll certainly expect leadership from the entire group, but I’m thrilled with the choices of Chad, Joey, and Dorian.” Kanoff is coming off his first season as the Princeton starting quarterback, and he became the first Tiger in nearly 25 years to win his first four starts. He threw for 2,295 yards last season, the sixth-most in Princeton history, and he completed 57.2 percent of passes with eight touchdowns.

In his first three seasons with the Princeton High baseball team, Colin Taylor batted at or near the top of the order, looking to be a table setter for the squad. This season, senior third baseman Taylor has been moved to the middle of the order to No. 4 and he is relishing the cleanup role. “I love it there, it is my first time in the four spot,” said Taylor. “I am comfortable. You get guys on and a chance for RBIs.” Last Wednesday against visiting Notre Dame, Taylor displayed his comfort level, going 3-for-3 and two triples, four RBIs, and a run scored as PHS prevailed 5-1.

“I was struggling earlier so coming up I have to stay confident and know I can do it,” said Taylor, whose first triple came in the bottom of the first inning and put PHS ahead 2-1 and his next three-bagger came two innings later and stretched the lead to 4-1. “With guys on, you just have to get them in; it is just doing the job.” Taylor’s classmate, Joaquin Hernandez-Burt, did a very good job on the mound, going the distance in the win, striking out six and scattering seven hits. Every time Joaquin is out there, we know we have the edge to win,” said Taylor. “He likes it the more the

game goes on. He gets into the games so it is nice to have him in there.” The team’s group of seniors, which includes Hayden Reyes, Matt Lambert, Micah Daley-Harris, Joey Studholme, and Aaron Lichtblau in addition to Taylor and Hernandez-Burt, have a sense of urgency this spring. “We are all getting ready for the last year and we are all still together so this is the year for us,” said Taylor, who is planning to do a post-graduate year at Peddie and hopes to ultimately play college baseball.

“We are excited, We have some good seniors, juniors, and sophomores all stepping up. We are confident this year also. We all have experience at varsity level.” PHS head coach Dave Roberts saw Taylor’s first-inning triple as the key blow of the contest in the win over Notre Dame. “It changed the course of the game to answer back that quickly,” said Roberts. “It changes the confidence of the offense, it changes everything. His offensive day was tremendous, what more can you ask from him. He had a rough preseason and I pulled him aside and said look I don’t need you to hit triples, I don’t need you to hit doubles, I just need you

the hit singles from that spot. The idea is to get the fastest guys we have up at the top of the order so we can steal. He does have some pop and I think it is a good spot for him.” Having ace HernandezBurt on the mound gave PHS confidence in the match-up against perennial power Notre Dame. “Any time Joaquin goes out there, we have got a chance,” said Roberts. “He is working in a new arm slot and I think he got a little tired and I think that was to our benefit. I think he spotted up his fastball better and the breaking stuff started coming a little bit easier for him, especially that curve ball working at the end of the game got a lot better. He was probably a little excited. It was a big game. He got better, any good pitcher gets stronger as the game goes on.” The Little Tigers played some strong defense behind Hernandez-Burt. “I love the infield, those guys are great,” said Roberts. “Alec Silverman did a great job at catcher. I

thought that was a big thing; in years past, we would get those third strikes in the dirt and let them go to the backstop and that strikeout would turn into a guy on base. Alec dug it out of the dirt three times today. He stepped and threw, bang, out, it was so big.” Beating Notre Dame was big for the Little Tigers. “We should have the attitude that we can play with Notre Dame, we beat them two years ago,” said Roberts, whose team fell 12-2 to Hightstown on Monday to drop to 1-3 and will play at Trenton on April 13, before hosting Trenton on April 15 and WW/P-S on April 18. “This is what it is all about; our goal is to win our division this year, Notre Dame is in it and it was a huge step forward.” In Taylor’s view, the win over the Irish shows that goal is attainable. “This year we are going for the division, so to beat a team like that who is always in contention gives us a lot of confidence the rest of the year,” asserted Taylor. —Bill Alden

After having its first two scheduled games this spring p os t p one d du e to p o or weather, the Princeton High softball team finally opened its season against Hamilton last week. But while the field at the John Witherspoon Middle School was dry for the April 5 contest, the players still faced adverse conditions as the wind howled and the temperature hovered in the low 40s. PHS junior pitcher Kayla Volante, however, was determined to not let the blustery weather hamper her efforts. “It was very cold,” said Volante. “I was trying to not really focus on it and just pitch.” Volante ended up pitching very well, striking out 10 and yielding four hits as PHS edged Hamilton 3-2. “My screwball was working pretty well,” said Volante, reflecting on her performance. “The ump was giving the low pitches so that was very helpful.” Shut ting out Hamilton through six innings, Volante ran into trouble in the top of the seventh. She gave up two runs and two runners were in scoring position before she recorded the final out to seal the victory. “It was very exciting and intense,” recalled Volante. “It was close. I was getting a little worried there but I got the last out.” Volante is excited to be the workhorse in the circle this spring for PHS after having shared pitching duties with the now-graduated Sarah Eisenach. “I am ready for it, I am ready to pitch a lot of games,” asserted Volante. “I think this year I can hit my spots pretty well.” In addition to providing superb pitching, Volante helped herself with a big hit, lining a single to drive in the final run of a three-run PHS rally in the third. “It was very helpful from a pitcher’s standpoint, you have that extra cushion,” said Volante. PHS head coach Dave Boehm liked the way his team didn’t let that cushion slip away in the face of Hamilton’s late rally. “This is the type of game that in the last couple of years we would’ve lost,” said Boehm. “That seventh inning might have snowballed into three or four more runs so I

think it was a positive that we were able to get that third out before any more damage was done.” Volante’s pitching effort was a major positive in the victory by the Little Tigers. “She did a good job, she had 10 strikeouts,” said Boehm. “She was hitting her spots pretty good. She kept it outside and she settled in.” The hitting of senior center fielder Natalie Campisi in the leadoff spot made a big difference for the Little Tigers, as she went 2-for3 with a triple and a run scored.

“We had her down around the seven, eight spot before and we moved her up this year,” said Boehm. “She has good speed, she can hit the gaps and she can run forever. That ball on the triple cut through the wind like it was nothing.” Boehm acknowledges that PHS has to take advantage of any run opportunities that it gets. “That is the thing we need more than anything, timely hitting,” said Boehm, whose team did get their bats going last Friday as they routed Lawrence 10-0 as junior shortstop Nancy Gray went

4-for-4 with a homer and 4 RBIs and Volante earning the shutout. “We are not going to score a ton of runs. If we get people on base we have got to get them in. The first inning hurt a little bit, we didn’t get those runs in when we had runners on second and third with no outs.” Getting a win in the open-

er, though, figures to help build confidence for PHS. “It is the first game, it is a win and starting off on a positive note,” said Boehm. “Hopefully we can get better at it. We play some decent defense. I think we can build on this.” In Volante’s view, the Little Tigers can get better and better as the season goes on.

“I think the keys for this year are to stay focused during the entire game and keep supporting each other when things go wrong,” said Volante. “I think winning our first game will be very helpful confidence-wise for the entire team.” —Bill Alden

Sparked by Freshman Auslander’s Energy on Attack, PDS Boys’ Lax Measuring Up Against the Top Teams Coby Auslander is just a freshman at Princeton Day School but he already has plenty of experience batt l i n g t h e L aw r e n c e v i l l e School in some high stakes games. This fall, he helped the PDS b oys’ s o ccer te a m edge Lawrenceville 1-0 as the Panthers beat the Big Red for the first time since 1983. On the ice, Auslander starred as Panther boys’ hockey squad posted wins over the Big Red in December and January. Last Thursday, he played a pivotal role in the midfield as the Panthers faced Law-

renceville in boys’ lacrosse for the first time since the mid-1980s. “This was a great feeling, the crowd was great,” said Auslander. “Everything started moving faster, the boys worked hard. The hockey game here was fun but this was out of this world.” PDS worked hard from the start against the Big Red, generating a lot of scoring chances even though it trailed 3-1 at halftime. “We kept saying just keep putting shots on net,” said Auslander. “Griff (Thompson) is a great goalie as everybody can see but it was just keep putting balls on

WILL TO WIN: Princeton Day School boys’ lacrosse player Will Brossman heads to goal in recent action. Last Monday, junior midfielder Brossman fired in six goals as PDS defeated Hun 106.

net and hope they go in.” Trailing 4-1 late in the t hird quar ter, t he shots started going in for PDS as it scored three straight goals to make it a 4-4 game with 10:47 left in regulation. Auslander notched the game-tying goal as he sprinted into the crease area and converted a feed from Jack Amaral into the back of the net. “I was just looking for the ball and Jack Amaral made a great pass,” recalled Auslander. “I just got it right in stride and just tried to put it in.” Unfor tunately for Aus lander and the Panthers, Lawrenceville was able to put in the last goal of the contest, scoring with 7.3 seconds left to pull out a 5-4 victory. “Just staying together, that is our team motto, we always have each other’s backs, even af ter losing this game, everybody still has each other’s backs,” said Auslander, who tallied a goal last Monday as PDS bounced back from the loss to the Big Red to beat nationally ranked Hun 10-6 and improve to 3-1. While Auslander has enjoyed having the chance to contribute as a freshman, he acknowledges that the transition to high school lacrosse hasn’t always been smooth. “It is nerve-wracking; you are just trying to feed your big dogs like Fletch (Connor Fletcher) and Jonah (Tuckman) and trying to let them do the work and they will find you if you are open,” said Auslander. Senior stars and co-captains Fletcher and Tuckman have become role models for Auslander. “They are terrific leaders, I hope when I am older, I am just like those guys,” said Auslander. “They really keep us all together. We may have some

guys that joke around and stuff but they always keep us in check.” PDS head coach R ich D’Andrea liked the way his team stuck together as it rallied from the early deficit against the Big Red. “These kids have guts; one of the things I love about this program is that these kids know who they are and they are going to fight tooth and nail for everything they get,” said D’Andrea. “It doesn’t matter what the score is, they are going to give you what they have got.” PDS is getting some great play from the precocious Auslander. “Coby has got great feet, he has got great vision, he is a great inside finisher, and he is comfortable carrying the ball,” said D’Andrea. “For a kid to bring that much poise and that much understanding of the game and spatial awareness, Coby has been a pleasant surprise this year, to say the least. Freshman goalie Connor Green showed a lot of poise against Lawrenceville, making eight saves. “They started to dodge and feed the exterior and then they looked to feed the crease from there,” said D’Andrea of Green, who also came up big against Hun, making eight saves. “T hey had some really good interior looks and Connor stayed big and came up w ith some really big saves. I think, on the whole, if you look at this game and the goalie play at both ends, it is one of the best, most complete games from both goalies that I have seen.” The defensive effor t

against Lawrenceville laid the groundwork for one of PDS’s best wins in years as it stifled Hun in the 10-6 triumph over the high-powered Raiders. “You look at the talent on that Lawrenceville roster, they are sending kids to good D-1 schools, like Notre Dame, Johns Hopkins, and UVa,” said D’Andrea, whose team plays at Blair Academy on April 13 before hosting Shipley School ( Pa.) on April 15 and Princeton High on April 18. “Our guys hang tough, we had some great senior leadership from Amir Melvin and James Fragale. Jack Amaral played great today. Brooks Johnson is growing into his body. As a sophomore, he has one of the best sticks on the team. The defense hung tough. It is one of those things, we run some different middies down there. The

guys support each other and have each other’s backs.” In D’Andrea’s view, taking on tough teams like Lawrenceville and Hun in the early going will yield dividends later in the spring. “We are focused on the end of the year and we are focused on building momentum here,” said D’Andrea. “This week is a great indicator for where we are at and it is a great indicator for what we need to work on too.” Auslander, for his part, believes the grit displayed by the Panthers against Lawrenceville is something the team can build on going forward. “It was a great game,” said Auslander. “I think we can take away never saying die and always going after the win while having fun while doing it.” —Bill Alden

For a program that doesn’t boast big numbers to begin w ith, the Princeton Day School baseball team absorbed a major hit when it lost its so-called Big 3 to graduation last June. The trio of stars, pitcher Cole McManimon, infielder Jake Alu, and outfielder J.P. Radvany, starred from day one as freshmen, producing stellar careers. With McManimon pitching for Lehigh, Alu playing at Boston College, and Radvany competing for Villanova, that has opened up things for the returning players. “The other guys are looking at it like hey, now it is their time to step up so I think the team has come together pretty well,” said head coach Ray O’Brien, who guided the Panthers to a 10-14 record last spring and spot in the state Prep B semifinals. “When you are not sitting around waiting for the Big 3 to take care of everything, I think that is going to make everyone more involved and more on board with the team part of it.” The 2016 team does feat u re t hree bat t le -te s te d seniors in Dom Gasparro, Ryan Augustus, and Sam Guarino. “Sam and Dom have been pretty much playing since their freshman year,” said O’Brien. “Ryan has played a little less but he looked real good in Florida on our preseason trip. We are expecting big things from all three of them this year.” The Panthers have looked very good in the early going, starting the season at 3-0 by defeating Pennington 6-4, Lawrenceville 15-1, and Peddie 4-3. With its star ting rotation featuring a trio of juniors, Chase Fleming, Ryan Sparks, and Russ Kirczow, PDS has the mound depth to build on its positive start. “The bulk of the pitching will be the three juniors,” said O’Brien. “We have the two lefties, Chase Fleming and Ryan Sparks, and then Russ Kirczow, who basically pitched us into the semifi-

nals last year in the prep tournament. He pitched two great games. He will be the right-hander. Luke Franzoni is a sophomore this year and he will throw. Matt Nyce will also throw for us.” In O’Br ien’s v iew, t he team’s offense will come down to a group effort. “I don’t expect to replace those three bats (Alu, Radvany, and McManimon) but I expect maybe a little more balance and having games where different people pick it up,” said O’Brien. “Hopefully in the end we will have enough numbers and score enough runs.” There don’t appear to be any easy outs in the PDS batting order. “We have Sam and Dom at the top of the order; Paul is a junior he has had two good years hitting and Zach has another year under his belt and he has some experience,” added O’Brien. “I think Fleming and Russ will get some hits. Luke had a really good trip in Florida hitting the ball. We can hit Ryan Sparks anywhere in the order. We can hit him in the top or the middle and I am expecting him to have a really good year. Ryan Augustus is going to hit right in the middle of the order, in the four-five-six-spot. He looked really good in Florida also. I think it is going to be interesting.” O’Brien is expecting his team to be good defensively. “On the the left side of the infield, we have Sam at short and Dom at third so we have experience with the two seniors,” said O’Brien. “On the right side, we will have a combination.

We have the potential to progress and become a pretty good team. I like it. Over the 10 years or so that I have been coaching here, this team has a really good camaraderie and they really work hard.

throughout the lineup; different people have done the job for us at different times, and what we have to work on — and we told them this — is consistency. We need to be shortening up the swing and getting the ball into play. Tell me the last high school game you saw when a team didn’t hit a ground ball. I have been coaching for many years, going on 46, and I have never seen a team not have one ground ball like we did today.” Hun got some good work on the mound in the loss to Peddie as starter Rob Huselid gave up just four hits and a run as he lasted until the bottom of the sixth and reliever Blake Brown looked sharp coming on in the frame, yielding no hits and striking out one. “He shows up today and goes out there and does a great job,” said McQuade of

starting pitching has been a big upside so far this spring for the Raiders. “James Werosta showed it last year so he has just continued where he left off,” said McQuade, noting that Werosta hurled a no-hitter in the season opener. “Huselid is a huge pump up. Mike Pedota fits in, he was the best JV pitcher we had last year. He gets on the mound and he can get the job done.” Hun has also been getting it done defensively. “Our outfield has done a great job,” asser ted McQuade. “Luke Apuzzi is an unbelievable center fielder, he’s made those great catches.

It was what you do the next day and baseball is the funniest game. In baseball, you can go into a slump with one bad pitch that you swing at and your mind takes over. You have got to be able to get it out of your mind and flush it and focus on the next pitch and think what is my job, what am I going to do. You have got to clear your head.” —Bill Alden

Anne Murrey Love

Anne Love of Princeton, passed away peacefully at home in her sleep on April 5, 2016. Anne Elizabeth Murrey was born at home September 3, 1921 in Gallatin, Tennessee, one of 5 children. Her mother, Ruth Harrell Murrey was a homemaker and her father, John Woodall Murrey, a prominent lawyer and judge. She had a wonderful childhood growing up in the South with great, early memories of riding in a cart pulled by a goat, receiving a horse for graduation, and campaigning with her father when he ran for U.S. Senate in the early 1930s. After graduating from Sullins College, Anne moved to New York City where she met Jim Love. The two married in 1944 and moved to Princeton in 1946 to start a family. They enjoyed a very active life in the Princeton

community. Anne ser ved as a member of the Altar Guild at Trinit y Church, volunteered at Princeton Hospital and was a committee member for the annual Hospital Fete; was a member of the Present Day Club and the Contemporary Garden Club; and loved playing golf at Springdale. Anne worked for the Gallop Organization when they first moved to Princeton. After raising her four children, she returned to work in real estate becoming a top seller, working well into her 80s. She loved selling real estate in Princeton and especially enjoyed the friendships she developed throughout her successful career. Anne and Jim were married for 64 years until his death in 2008. He was the love of her life and favorite dance partner. After his passing, she became an avid knitter, giving away her homemade hats and scarves to family, friends, doctors, and caregivers. She relished her Tuesday bridge games and looked forward to her Thursday night cocktail parties, which she hosted for neighbors and friends. She read the newspaper daily, was a diehard Phillies fan and consistently beat her daughters in double solitaire — “even with one bad eye,” she would say! She loved to be outdoors and took special delight arranging flowers, nurturing her orchids, and feeding and watching the hummingbirds on her patio. Anne loved her kids and truly adored her grandkids. Never wanting to miss a party, last fall she attended two of her granddaughter’s weddings, one requiring an 11-hour car ride to North Carolina where she made a splash at all the gatherings.

Myra A. Mernagh

Myra A. Mernagh passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, April 2, 2016 with her devoted daughter Nancy at her side. She was a young 93. Mom was the sweetest person and best mother in the world, and she was loved by everyone who knew her. We celebrate her life with every breath we take. She is now at peace in the arms of God, her beloved husband of 70 years, and her cherished mother. Mom asked that the following be used as her obituary, and that it be left in her own words. I was born to Blanche E. (Kellogg) Stocking and J. Lee Stocking on March 17, 1923 in Akron, Ohio. I had an older brother, Milan Stocking, who preceded me in death many years ago. I loved playing many different sports, but my passion was tennis. After graduation from North High School in Akron, I got a job at the Dime Savings Bank. It was during this time that I met Harry C. Mernagh and we

fell in love. Because this was also the time of World War II, Harry made the decision to enlist in the Army; as so many of our brave American men and women did. After three years he returned from Italy and we were married on August 12, 1945. While we were on our honeymoon the war ended just two days later on August 14. This was the best wedding present ever! After our first daughter Janet was born, we moved to Princeton so Harry could attend Westminster Choir College on the GI Bill. Our other two daughters, Nancy and Joanne, were born in Princeton. After receiving his bachelor’s degree in 1952, Harry got a job at Educational Testing Service (ETS) while he was working on his graduate degree. That job turned into a 35 year career with ETS. I also worked at ETS for many years until I retired in 1988. Harry and I enjoyed traveling, wintering at our home in Florida, golfing, taking long bike rides, and just being together. Our ashes will be put to rest at Princeton Cemetery. The burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to All Saints’ Church in Princeton, or to a charity of your choice. I am blessed to be survived by my loving daughters, Janet Bancroft and husband Robert, Nancy Mertz and husband Gary, Joanne O’Brien and husband Rober t ; four grandchildren, Heidi Loforese and husband Martino, Shannon Gilkey and husband Brian, Brian Mer tz and wife Genesis, Neva Orlando and husband Bill; and seven great-grand-

children Michael, Kayla, Tyler, Jordin, Jameson, Mara, and Domenica. My dearest husband Harry, the love of my life, passed away last year at the age of 92. I have enjoyed a long and loving life with my family and friends. Praise be to God. A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m., on Friday, April 15, 2016 at All Saints’ Church, 16 All Saints’ Road, Princeton. Arrangements are under the direction of The MatherHodge Funeral Home, Princeton. ———

Adeline S. Broitman

Adeline Weinberg Broitman died April 8, 2016 at home at 86. She was the wife of Harold Broitman and had lived in Princeton since 1970. Mrs. Broitman was born in Brooklyn, N.Y. Her parents came to this country as part of the wave of Russian Jews who emigrated in the mid 1920s. Her mother was 12 and came with two older sisters; her father, who was 18, and came with his sister, was taken in by a cousin who taught him the printing trade. Both attended school while working and met in high school. Addie Brotiman attended Lincoln high school in Brooklyn and graduated from Brooklyn College with the class of 1949. She met Mr. Broitman, an engineering student at Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, in 1948. He was working as a bus boy at a resort in the Catskills where she was visiting as a guest. They were married in 1949. Addie worked in her fa-

ther’s printing business and her husband worked in his father’s men’s clothing business. In 1968 Mr. Broitman took a job with RCA Astro Division in Hightstown and the Broitmans moved to Princeton soon thereafter. Addie and her husband shared a love of art and interest in architecture. In the late 1980s, they embarked on the design and construction of the house of their dreams on Brooks Bend in Princeton, overseeing every detail of design and construction. Addie was an avid reader who enjoyed playing tennis, working in ceramics, painting in oils, and knitting. She was a former board member of the Princeton Senior Resource Center and with her husband was a member of Community Without Walls, Friends of the Institute for Advanced Study, The Center for Jewish Life at Princeton University, and the Princeton Jewish Center. Her many charitable activities were an important and satisfying commitment to the community. Addie was a kind and loving friend, quick to help those in need. She was dedicated to women’s rights with high sensitivity to independent activities. In addition to her husband, Addie is survived by a son, Steven L. Broitman, a past professor of molecular biology at West Chester University in West Chester, Pa., his wife Barbara Wood, a polymer scientist and their two sons, Benjamin and Adam; and a daughter, Jessica Broitman, a psychoanalyst in practice in Berkeley, Calif., her husband, Gibor Basri, an astrophysicist and past vice

When it comes time to sell your house, It’s often hard to say goodbye to your old home that is filled with so many happy memories. But in order to attract a new buyer, you will need to emotionally let go of your old nest and make room for someone new. To make the transition, start by packing up all your personal mementos: family photos, team trophies and kid’s artwork. Store extra toys, worn furniture, out of season clothing and anything not essential for daily living. Paint the walls a new neutral color and move the furniture around to create a fresh inviting environment. Put out a brand new welcome mat. Make your house into a model home — beautiful, but impersonal. Think of yourselves as temporary caretakers who can’t wait to hand over the keys to the new owner. This will make it easier for prospective buyers to imagine themselves settling into their new home and making it their own.
