Mining company seeks OK to expand operationBy Bernadette YannecdiStaff W riter

Concert series offers some cool sounds for summerW oodlot to see British InvasionBy Steve BatesStaff W riter

Tom Russo's parents let him stay up to see The Beatles make their historic appearance on The Ed Sul­livan Show in 1964.

He was 8.The group was the harbinger of what became

, known as the British Invasion — a sharp increase in the popularity of rock bands from the United King-, dom here in the States

John Graziano was learning how to crawl. Chris Roselle was just a few months old.

Thirty-live years later the members of the musical trio, known as Carnaby Street, are keeping the sounds of the British^ Invasion alive through vintage instru­ments. retro costumes and a catalogue of hits made

. popular by the Rolling Slones, the Kinks and, of course, the Fab Four.

Friday, Carnaby Street — named for a street in London where many Bril-rock pioneers honed their craft — will bring its show to South Brunswick’s free summer concert series at Woodlot Park. Mr. Russo, the band’s drummer, and Mr. Roselle, the guitarist, explained why the attitude, musicianship and song­writing of the 1960s is still relevant after all these years.

Bands like The Beatles had class, said Mr. Russo. They didn’t go on stage in T-shirts and jeans. They were working for a living and dressed for the part, he said.

"I always liked the fact that Ringo Starr looked like he was having the time of his life up on stage," said Mr Russo who began playing the drums shortly after seeing his idol on television. “He and the other Beatles always wore these neatly pressed suits too.”

Mr Roselle said it’s tough to smile today without losing credibility as a rcx'k musician.

"If you look at a picture of uxlay’s bands every­body's so angry. ” he said. "Anger doesn't make better rock n roll. People forget that Paul McCanney, who always had a smile on his face, is the same guy who sang something as beautiful as ‘Yesterday’ and some­thing as dark as Helter Skelter. "

“It’s inipos.sible to tell the difference between band members and audience members today.” said Mr Russo "People are coming to see a show and you owe it to them to hx)k nice.”

Band members wear matching outfits reminiscent of the suits worn by The Beatles when the first arrived in America. The band also uses vintage guitars, ampli­fiers and drums Matching Beatle-boots, which cost a small fortune, complete the ensemble.

The true talent of the band shines through when they begin to sing. All three members share lead vocal

“Chris does the sensitive stuff.” said Mr. Russo. "I have a heavier or raspier kind of sound and John is right in the middle of that.”

And different songs by the same artists often call for a different member of Carnaby .Street, said Mr Roselle.

“Sometimes 1 might sing a Rolling Stones song like ‘Angie,’ but somebody else might he able to sing 'Satisfaction' better, so they’ll do it," said Mr. Rose­lle.

Both Mr. Russo and Mr Roselle admit that musi­cianship has improved remarkably since the early days of pop. Modern-day music has produced better musicians, they say; however, music of the ’60s had an aura of urgency around it because the songs were written, recorded and released so quickly.

“‘Please Please Me' was recorded in one day. so the story goes,” said Mr. Russo of The Beatles single. “That’s afl you needed for a song like that, If you spend too much time on a song, you get too close to it and run the risk of not being able to tell if its good or bad anymore."• ’Mr. Roselle said Carnaby Slreel tries to recapture the energy evident on recordings where a musician had only one or two takes to get it right.

The simplicity of the songs in the band's cata­logue doesn’t hamper creativity or bore either Mr. Russo or Mr. Roselle. Each song is like a recipe which must be followed meticulously — even if it is a recipe for marshmallow fluff.

“You tan ’t over-complicate the songs to the point where you lose the feeling behind it." said Mr. Russo. “If you add too much to such a simple structure, you risk losing the power of its simple beauty"

“You don’t sec longevity in to­day’s artists," he said. “Sure there were one-hit wonders in the '.“iOs and ’60s too; hut you’ll never see the likes of Elvis or The Beatles again"

Covering artists with multiple number-one hits makes it easier to remove some tired songs from the mix, offering some relief for the band, while never losing particular artists from show, said Mr. Camp­bell. The only one getting any kind of relief Friday was drummer Ron Howden, who made sure to bring his portable fan to the concert.

It wa.sn’t as hot as it had been early in Ihe week. Kids ran laps around the stage with their parents close behind while grandparents looked as they rested comfortably in patio chairs.

The band started off by run­

ning through a few golden oldies like "Rock Around the Clock" and "Why Do Ftxils Fall in Love, ”

sung with intensity by Linda Bod- olosky. The set became a little more vigorous when First Class Act moved into some guitar rock a la Chuck Berry.

Guitarist Mitch Block didn’t even attempt to play the old blues rtK'k standards note for note from the original recordings. He played them the way Mr. Berry himself would have: he played with his heart. It added a freshness to the concert that would have otherwise been lost. An oldies .show is at its best when Ihe songs are terribly fa­miliar to the audience; however the band works hard to make them sound fresh and entertaining.

One way First Class Act kept the crowd involved was to employ a linguistic device that doesn’t ex­ist in rock music past or present: enunciation. Every lyric of every song from “Silhouette ” to “Marga- ritaville ” was so well spoken that the crowd just had to sing along as they balled off mosquitoes and kept an eye on their children.

The highlight of the show was "All I Have To Do Is Dream” made popular by the Everly Broth­ers, on which Mr. Ehtel and Mr. Campbell shared the vocals. The way they captured the harmonies in the song made them sound like they were 18 years old again.

“We’re still singing that one in the original key,” said Mr. Camp­bell after the song. “I guess we’re still doing pretty good.”

Softball players in the field be­hind the amphitheater seemed to agree. Anybody in the vicinity of third base would ofterulum his at­tention over to the oand as it chugged through its set on the little concrete slab that served as the stage.

Hew contract gives township supervisors 3.5% raisesBy Steve BatesStafJ W riter

Members of the newly formed South Brunswick Supervisors As­sociation will receive average pay increases of 3.5 percent in 1999 under a newly introduced four- year contract, according to Rich Kunze, assistant township manag­er.

The Township Council voted 3-0 to approve the contract July 6 Mayor Debra Johnson abstained because she said she hadn't read the contract. Councilman Edmund Luciano was not present for the vote.

The SBSA formed in January

after cutting its ties to the Commu­nications Workers of America, Lo­cal 1032. after members voted unanimously to push for more con­trol over contract talks. The super­visors' contract also expired in January.

The contract will cover 17 au­thorized supervisor positions. 16 of which are currently Tilled, said Mr. Kunze. The township needs to hire a supervisor for the senior center.

South Brunswick supervisors will receive a 3.5 percent average pay increase in 2000 and a 3.75 percent average pay increa.se in 2001 and 2002. said Mr. Kunze. The negotiations took eight weeks to complete. Mr. Kunze and SBSA

Two boys face charges in 12 car Jiurglaries

Two South Brunswick teens have been charged in connection with a string of 12 car burglaries on Beekman Road that took place during the early morning of June 25. police said.

The 17- and 15-year-old sus­pects, both boys, were each charged with 13 counts of theft and receiving stolen property in addition to the 13-counts of bur­glary, according to ' Lt. Ronald Schmalz, public information offi­cer for the South Brunswick Po­lice.

Following what Lt. Schmalz described as "information devel­oped from community sources," officers executed a search warrant at the boys' homes, he said. Sever­al pieces of stolen properly were recovered.

The juveniles turned them­selves in July 6 after police met with their parents, said Lt. Schmalz. Both are being housed at the Middlesex County Juvenile Detention Facility pending a fami­ly court hearing.

ETS using high schooi for grading over summer

South Brunswick High School will be used as a summer home for Educational Testing Service, a na­tional testing organization that pro­vides certification for qualified teachers.

ETS will review about 7,000 exams and ponfolios that have been submitted for National Board for Professional Teaching Stan­dards certification. The NBPTS of­fers certification to more than 80 percent of the nation's teachers from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade.

SBHS is one of three sites be­ing used by ETS this summer. ETS will make use of the school from June 28 to Aug. 24. The district will be paid $151,000 for use of the facility, $51,000 of which will he used for maintenance and clean­up and the rest of which will go to­wards projects at the high school.

According to Assistant Super­intendent Willa Spicer, the high school will use the money to run training programs for teachers and to fund new signs for the high school, physical education equip­ment and computers.

President. Charles Smith agrged that health insurance was a major issue in the negotiations.

There are three levels of health coverage available under the new SBSA contract. Like the contract for the township's Public Works Employees Association, approved in March. South Brunswick will pay 100 percent of coverage for employees who want basic cover­age. Employees who want addi­tional coverage must make a con­tribution based on their salary.

A report on arbitration between the Police Benevolent Association, which represents 48 patrolmen, and South Brunswick was review­ed by the Township Council Tue.s-

day. Mr. Smith said if a final agreement with members of the PBA does not include the same healllf coverage contribution plan as SBSA membefs, the SBSA has a right to renegotiate the health coverage agreement in its contract. And the union will take advantage of that right, he said.

Currently, about two-thirds of all township employees are on the new health plan, according to Mr. Kunze, although the township would like all employees in the program.

“I think both sides were pleased with the outcome," said Mr. Kunze. “For instance, we agreed to an increase in the merit bonus for supervisors, but we also got to revise the merit standards."

Annual merit bonuses are de­termined by the numerical ranking a supervisor.receives his annual evaluation, said Mr. Kun?e. The higher the score, the .larger the merit bonus. Under the new con­tract. supervisors need a higher score on the evaluation in order to receive the bonus.

A long-standing education in­centive will be eliminated for new employees under the new contract.

Mr. Smith said since the PWEA and the American Federa­tion olkState. County and Munici­pal Employees recently negotiated contracts with the township, the SBSA knew essentially what the township had to offer. SBSA members voted 12-1 in favor of the contract, he said

The township and the SBSA removed an overtime issue from the negotiating table in order to agree on a contract, said Mr. Kunze. The two parties will revisit that issue later in fhe year, he said.

Mr. Smith said the supervisors want to be compensated in either compensatory time or in overtime pay when they have to cover a sub­ordinate’s shift. He said the SBSA and the township agreed to ap­prove a contract and revisit the is­sue in order to minimize costs for both parties. At present, there is no unified agreement for all SBSA members on this issue, said Mr. Kunze.

Organist’s retirement strikes sad note at Reformed churchB9 Jessica KarmazinEditorial A ssistant

After 30 years of making mu­sic at the Six Mile Run Reformed Church in Franklin Park. Evelyn Potter Puchalek has decided it's time to hang up her organ shtx's — for now. at least.

Ms. Puchalek chose to retire from her position as Music Director/Organist when her job at AT&T became a little more de­manding. and time with her family started decreasing.

She noted, however, that her retirement doesn't mark the end of a chapter in her life, it just means she needs more time to work on other chapters.

"I have no intentions of mov­ing on. I will always be there as a resource or if they need me as a substitute for the new organist." said Ms. Puchalek. whose job as church organist included directing the adult choir, running concerts and holiday shows and occasional­ly directing a children's choir

"Now I'm kxrking forward to spending time with my 16-year old daughter." she added.

A life-long member of the con gregation. Ms. Puchalek practical­ly grew' up in the church. She's been working as the organist since her college days at Douglass, where she studied music educa­tion.

Following college, she worked as a teacher in public schools for nearly 14 years. Needing a career change, she accepted a job with AT&T, where she's been working full-time as a computer pro­grammer for close to 12 years.

As the organist for the church. Ms. Puchalek worked an average of eight hours a week, except for holidays'.

"Christmas, Easter and other special occasions are always very busy times," she explained. "I've never been able to go away with my family for a holiday because of my responsibilities with the church."

After .30 years, she decided the time she was spending at the church and the time she was spending at work were beginning to clash, leaving her little personal time.

"I remember during organ re­cital rehearsal time, I was sneaking into the church at 7 a m. to get in some practice before I had to go to work," she said.

Perhaps the best example of Ms. Puchalek's devotion to her po­sition at Six Mile Run is an inci­dent that occurred 16 years agO:

Three weeks away from her pregnancy due date, Ms Puchalek wasn't feeling well on the day of a service.

Although she warned the back­up organist that she may not make it through the day, she finished the service.

By 3 p.m., Ms. Puchalek was rushed to the hospital and by .“i p.m., she had a baby girl.

"My daughter wa,s practically bom in the church." she said. "After that, I would always bring her to services and she'd get passed around the congregation while I played."

The Rev. David Risseeuw , pas­tor of the Six Mile Run Reformed Church, said Ms., Puchalek will be remembered for her extreme sense of dedication.

“She has a wonderful spirit," said the Rev. Risseeuw, who has been pastor for 10 years. "She was super dedicated to teaching music here. I understand her reasons for leaving. She gave 30 years with great faithfulness."

The congregation and choir members of the church organi/.ed a retirement ceremony to show Ms. Puchalek just how much she will be missed.

On Sunday, June 27, following

a service during which Ms. Pucha­lek played for (he last time as the church organist, a potiuck lun­cheon was held in her honor.

■ Lois Spcckman. widow of a former pastor, the Rev. Eugene Spcckman. the Rev. Risseeuw and senior choir member Keitha Davey each spoke at the luncheon, re- Oecting on times they shared with Ms. Puchalek during her tenure as musical director.

The senior choir performed, and Ms. Puchalek was presented with gifts from the choir, the Women's .Ministries and the Con­sistory.

Although she maintained com­posure throughout the ceremony, Ms. Puchalek said it was a very emotioij;il event for her. and gets teary when she thinks of one spe­cial gift she received.

"1 was presented with a sketch done in pen and ink by a local art­ist. Biff Heins." she explained. "It's a picture of my organ. I was

speechless. What's really special about it is that he included my or­gan shoes in the drawing."

Ms. Puchalek said the choir

V e r s a t i l e C u s t o m S h e l v i n g S y s t e m s

CLOSCTMAJD"

used to tease her by stealing the laces out of her organ shoes and hiding them before practice. In the drawing, the organ shoes are on top of the organ bench, and one of the laces is missing. In the corner, near the artists' signature, is the mi.ssing lace.

"I'm amazed I didn't cry when I saw that picture," she said. Al­though (he artist's detailed shoes make the sketch sentimental, it's her beloved organ in the picture that makes the drawing meaning­ful.

The organ, a tracker pneumal- ic, was constructed in the early 1900s and is made tit wotrd and leather. Due to its old people are able to play it.

"It's unusual because the (fcdal board is flat." said Ms. Puchtjick. "Most pedal boards tcKJay are curved."

She said the organ is also very

distinctive because of the markings on its back. "Before it was electri­fied, the organ ran by crank. Someone would have to sit behind it. turning the crank. So, over the years, the people who had to sit back there carved "their initials in the organ"

The Rev. Risseeuw and his committee already have begun the difficult task of searching for someone who can play the antique instrument. '

An organist has been selected to play for services throughout the summer, but he has to return to schcKtl in the fall.

The church committee mem­bers have their hands full trying to Jand someone who can fill Ms. Pu- chalek's organ shoes.

"Most people just don't know how to 'operate it. " said Louise Lowande. a church committee member. "It's going to be hard to replace her"

Restrict parking in neighborhoods near high schooi

South Brunswick High School's neigh­bors are not vciy happy.

{j^seems that some students who drive to school have been using the streets in the neighborhoods surrounding the high school as their own private parking lots. Residents say they leave litter, block mailboxes, tres­pass on private property and often arc row­dy. They want something done to help stem _ the problem.

They also say they haven’t received an adequate response from the school board.

But this isn’t the school board’s prob­lem.

The school board cannot prevent stu­dents from driving to schtxtl or tell them where to park. The only thing the board can do is attempt to make spaces available to students who do drive. According to Vice Principal Joseph Valenti, the district has done so. He said there are more than 400 parking spots at the school, and even with 2(X)-plus staff members, the school was able to provide a parking space for every student who requested one.

He said'it appears that most of the kids who park on the surrounding streets are doing so by choice because they believe it will make it easier to leave school grounds undetected. The school has responded to

; calls from neighbors in the past, he said, but ; it is difficult to know whether teens who

may be loitering in the surrounding neigh- ‘borhoods are the school’s responsibility. ' Some mayxiot be SBHS students and others could be early-release students, some of whom leave school as early as 11 i.lO a.m.

He said the school.disciplines students who cut class or leave school grounds with­out permission and it is up to the township Police Department to curtail other activities that may be happening off campus.

The police have been making an attempt to do so. but are limited in what they can do. Students — or anyone, for that matter — who trespass on private property, litter or bkK'k driveways can be ticketed or even prosecuted.

But beyond that, the department's hands ■are tied — unless residents are willing to ac­cept parkgig restriction on their streets.

Neighbors need to work with police to help the Township Council formulate a .set of parking restrictions residents can Uve *■ with.-These could range from an outrighf

' ban on on-street parking to a ban covering school hours, or consist of a sy.stem ip which residents are issued parking permits and un­permitted vehicles are towed away and im­pounded.

Regulations such as these would make it easier for police to keep unwanted cars — and students — out of the neighborhoods adjacent to the high school.

Regulations of this kind have worked in Metuchen. New Brunswick, Princeton and other towns and they were effective in limit­ing problems in the Regal Point develop­ment and on .Stanley Avenue — both of which faced similar issues when the high

. school was located on Major Road.Residents have a right to be concerned.

But nothing can be done until they decide what kindyof parking restrictions they are willing to live wit^.

Editor's note: The following letter was published July I : however, several lines were mistakenly omitted. The com­plete letter appears below.

Let's fight to preserve quality of life in DaytonTo the editor:

t write to express one woman's per­spective on living on Georges Road in Dayton (tor that matter. I am sure, on any main road in this part of the state). In two words, it is disappointing and frustrating.

I have come to believe that it is cap­italism, not demt>;racy, that really dic­tates what gix:s ori in our state and in our communities. It is said that the power is with the people, and the rights of the individual are paramount — but that really depends on which people you're talking about.

You see, in Dayton, the rights seem to belong to: the developers, the speed­ers and other drivers who choose to ig­nore solid white and yellow grid lines on our roads: the 18-wheel truck driv­ers: and major retail corporate officials. We who make the mortgage payments and pay taxes have few ... and I'm not sure who can change that. Is it up to the federal and stifle lawmakers to change this pattern ’ Or is it up to the munici­pality to adv(x;alc for its residents'.’

■ We (Ton'I have the right to pre­serve the quality of life we hoped for when we chose this community;

■ We don't have the right to air free of emissions from idling trucks wh<i have chosen Dayton as their "truck slop. " They seem to have a lot of rights — the right to park on the roads for days at a lime: to sleep anywhere they choose if it's private property and the owners don't know about it; they can back up across major intersections en­dangering every other approaching driver. They can wake us up at all hours of the night with their horns, backup signals, air brakes — and we have the right only to close our windows and pump up our air conditioners.

■ We've been warned by ItKal and state officials that if we complain loo much about the drivers who exceed the 35 and 45 mph speed limits, the stale may come in and raise the limits. Go figure! I guess the safely of the resi­dents and their children comes second to the rights of those passing through in a hurry on the way to somewhere else.

■ Our roads are jammed, and driv­ers are impatient. If they can ride across the shoulder paint line and over your property to get around the cars in front of them, they will.

■ Residents don't have the right to preserve their historic buildings. Devel- ttpmeiu companies have doggedly pur­sued the purchase of my home and six other adjacent properties at the center of the village for the purpose of tearing them down for yet another strip mall. At 70, my house is the baby among my neighbors. The building next to mine is the oldest in the township dating back over 200 years. Yet there are no dollars to preserve. The money is in the hands of the developers, and unless my neigh­bors and f are more stubborn than they are greedy, they will win. Within the next seven days, the historic home across from mine will be turned over to major retail corporatt^fficials for dem­olition and blacktopping.

■ We don't have the right to tell the major chain convenience store that lo­cated here despite the protests of resi­dents that we don't want them to ex­pand in our community; that they are not responsible neighbors now; that they are a magnet for trucks; they at tract ypung people who have no where to go at night, some of whom may be responsible for the recent vandalism problem; that their trash flies all over the neighborhood, that their 24-hour op­eration prevents residents from sleeping with their windows open and feeJing safe; etc., etc., etc. They want to expand — and undoubtedly they will If they want to build a gas station in a few years, I have no doubt that they will succeed — the residents will be damned!

■ The stories could go on for pages. They are very sad testimony about our society, but they are true. Ask anyone living in the center of Dayton.

I have encountered a number of very dedicated and capable municipal employees who individually shared our concerns, but we need a concerted ef­fort from the municipality, at all levels and in all departments. 1 urge residents to speak out about these conditions. Write federal, state and county lawmak­ers, contact the local officials, the po­lice department, local and county health officials. Join community-based organi­zations that are taking action to support the quality of life you deserv^. Stop pa­tronizing and supporting the “bad guys." Rather, support the local mer­chants who are struggling to compete' with the large chaitjs. Let's try to save Dayton (or what’s left of it) for our­selves, for the children, or just because

In South Brunswick, t ie nose knowsTo the editor:

Growing up in South Brunswick from the I9,5f)'s to the present has been quite an experience for one's nose. While causes for the types of scents have changed, some .scents pervade through time.

I was lucky enough to have lived in an agricultural area of this town that still attempts to resist the crush over de­velopment. As a child. 1 can remember the smell of animal manure being spread on the local farm fields That was life in a farming neighborhood.

Years have passed, and now the smell is from a different source. Espe­cially the smells from the warehousing that is being spread into our neighbor­hood. And the biggest stench isn't from the belching diesel filth.The worst smell is from the rotten, backstabbing. back­room deals that our former officials made with developers in South Bruns­wick's past. People that we trusted to' "run the store." The same people that reassured us that what they were doing was in South Brunswick's best interest. A warehouse isn't that bad lor your area.

People affected by these political decisions weren't told how zoning changes, combined with the lack of township planning, would spell disaster for the eastern section of South Bruns­wick. The former officials created a dis­ease that only continues to spread into each residential area that borders a warehouse. It multiplies with each new wiirehbitse.

Good planning dropped dead and was tossed onto a present-day, irtanure pile. Former "trusted officials ' continue to wheel and deal. The same names of former officials keep emanating from each new warehouse application. Only a little digging into ^le "manure pile" will find out in whose interest they act. Can't you smell that smelW Let them bring a warehouse to your residential area to get a whiff.

The old manure spreading days of my childhtKxi smelled like a petunia compared to the stench of these ware­house deals today. Maybe good govern­ment can stop the smell. Residents in warehouse/residential neighborhoods must draw the line now before we are forced into wearing gas masks. Only in South Brunswick.

Fluoridated water could be harmfulTo the editor:

On July I, the South Brunswick

Post reported that the 'I'ownship is seri­ously considering "...adding fiuoride to the water supply. " This news has raised concerns among many residents for two principal reasons. First, there are reports that the type of fiuoride added to drink­ing water is not safe for both children and adults. Second, families are being compelled to tqke a medication even if they do not need it or want it and be­lieve that there arc health risks in that substance.

A number of prominent physicians and authorities in public health oppose fiuoridation.’One such authority is Gary Null (Ph.D ). He has frequently made lengthy appearances on our education- television stations. Channel 13 and Channel 12. He and Dr Martin Feld­man (M.D.) report that fiuoride is a poi­son that can weaken the immune system and cause serious health disorders. His website IGarynull.com (click on Is­sues)] describes numerous scientific studies in respected journals which sup­port the existence of harmful effects.

Additional evidence appears in a re­port from the union kx;al which repre­sents the scientists and engineers (not the appointed decision makers) of the Environmental Protection Agency in Washington. D C, Initially, those scien­tists and technical people were in favor of water fiuoridaiion because they thought it was beneficial. However, they now oppose it because of many scientific studies which found various hazards. These hazards include gene mutations, cancer, reproductive effects, neurotoxicity, bone pathology and den tal fiourosis.

Even if one does not accept or be­lieve the scientific evidence of harmful effects, there is a second issue to be considered. Should the government compel everybody to take a drug ad­ministered in the water supply for the

ipurpose of preventing cavities given the alternative of fluoridated toothpaste'? Should government mandated lluorida- tion deny pure tap water to families who do not want or need those lluori- dated chemicals or who have concerns that those substances are likely to be detrimental to their health?

Instead of adding additional fiuoride to our drinking water, many of us be­lieve that our town should urge our wa­ter suppliers to reduce or eliminate the fiuoride in what they currently sell to us.

SBHS parking woesTo the editor:

Among the benefits one can derive from studying history are ensuring that mistakes are not repeated and solutions for similar challenges are adapted and adopted.

It is for those reasons that 1 read with concern the recent comments by

some of our elected officials when resi­dents who live on Walden Pond and First Avenue near SBHS expressed their vhlid concerns regarding the nu­merous high school .students who park in their neighborhood and some of their inappropriate and allegedly illegal be­havior choices. It is unfortunate for resi­dents that our mayor and some council members referred the residents to the Board of Education before consulting with the police department and plan­ning. zoning and engineering staffs for solutions.

Quite simply, the parking problems that the neighborhoods near our current SBHS face were successfully addressed by the Township Committee when they existed at the former SBHS on Major Road in 1990. Residents along the Ma­jor Road extension into Dayton Center and Stanley Avenue were subjected to the same parking problems and many of the same teenage behaviors. After con suiting with the command staff and traf­fic bureau of the police department, the Township Committee that I served on solved the concerns of those residents by adopted parking restrictions for school days on those local streets, thus eliminating the ability for students to park on those local roads.

Speaking as a parem of a SBHS stu­dent. a member of this community and a former mayor. I'm sure that the high school administration has a desire to be informed of any inappropriate or illegal activity in which their students alleged­ly are engaged. However^ common sense dictates that if a citizen witnesses an act that any reasonable person would believe to be a crime, the police should' be immediately called. Our police de'- partment is not only exemplary, but their philosophy of community policing was developed to respond to concerns like these. Upon implementation, I’m sure that school resource officer (SRO) would be assigned to address these types of off-campus behaviors.

The use of illegal drugs is clearly a crime. The use of physical force can also be a crime. While it is illegal for minors to purchase tobacco products as well as use them on Board of Education property, unfortunately, it is not illegal for minors to use tobacco off school property. It seems to me that the gov­erning body should consult with the township attorney and health depart­ment to detennine if the an ordinance can be adopted to make it illegal for mi­nors to use tobacco products in South Brunswick.

Rather than play ping-pong with residents by sending them to other boards, it would serve our community well if our mayor used the resources that are available, represent citizens with concerns, and develop proactive policies to address valid citizen con­cerns. That process can be initiated by adopting similar parking ordinances as was done near the former SBHS — but it should be doiie before the first day of school.

Camp.Continued from Page JA

All campers swim once a week , at the Princeton Family YMCA,• and take trips for'roller skating and

golf. They also spend a day out­doors at places like Island Beach State Park and Worxilot Park.

Star campers become scientists from 9 a.m. to noon, growing crys­tals, making Play-Doh, cooking smores in outdoor solar ovens, or finding constellations among the stars in an inflatable planetarium.In addition to the twice-a-week trips Adventure campers take. Star campers embark on science ori­ented trips such as a day at the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City.

Every Friday is Special Events Day for all camps. Campers partic­ipate in a Fourth of July Parade, the Camp Olympics, or Camp Spirit Day, where each group pres­ents a banner and perfonns a camp .song or cheer.

In the afternoons. Adventure and Ba.se campers rotate on a schedule from one activity to an­other, from drama and cooking to . arts and crafts and sports.

In a drama workshop last week, campers arranged them­selves into different shapes as they learned to use their bodies as one

' of the tools of the acting trade. The instructor called out a letter, num her or shape, and three competing teams had to form it in less than 20 seconds without talking. The campers met the challenge enthusi­astically. silently positioning them­selves into the letter C or the num­ber 8.

Campers moved on from using their bodies to using their minds in a science workshop where they ex­plored the colors of white light,

"We put a drop of clear nail- polish on black paper underwater in a tray full of water and made a rainbow," said fourth-grader Mike Malfitano

At the end of the workshop, the caippers recited, in order, the col­ors of the rainbow that had ap­peared on their pagers during the experiment. The campers have mastered other science experi­ments such as growing carrots in sand and making raisins turn back into grapes.

Campers also enjoy long-term

Showing our patriotism by honoring veterans

Rebecca Shi designs a rainbow fish in arts and crafts.projects in arts and crafts such as printmaking and paper mache. Fifth-grader Derek Moore started his printmaking project by first creating a scene from Pokeman, a popular video game, and then will make a photixopy of the drawing, make a printing plate, and finally ink the pniject.

In a cooking workshop, camp­ers put on chef's hats and created savory snacks. This week's spe­cials included English muffin piz­za. Rice Krispies Treats and dirt cups.

Second-grader Sarita Patankar offered the recipe for dirt cups: "You put pudding in a cup and then crush Oreos in it. Then you put them in the refrigerator and stick a Gummy Worm in them. " Sarita says the dirt cups tasted re­ally good.

First-grader Heather Heyer says the be: t part of cooking is get­ting to cat the treat.

Of course, camp wouldn't be complete without plenty of run­

ning around outdoors, and playing outside is what many campers said they enjoy the most.

Fourth-grader Patrick McBride enjoys any outdoor activity, whether it’s soccer or basketball, and first-grader Ernest Leverell gets excited-about games of kick- ball and swimming. Courtney Co­hen, a first-grade camper, enjoys playing outside during free play time, while Ashley Froats likes . playing games with counselors, such as duck duck splash.

Camp director Michelle Klcin- man says they try to have the chil­dren go outside as much as possi­ble.

However, on 100-degree days campers are glad to have air-condi­tioned rooms to retreat to, where they display their music and drama skills or cook up experiments in science workshops or tasty treats in cooking class. After surviving July's first heat wave,fourth-grader Alexandra Schraft was asked what her favorite thing to do at camp is. Her reply: "I like to stay inside "

The South Brunswick Veterans Tribute Commit­tee has awarded its sevene'th annual $1,000 schol­arship to Lauren Pursley of Kendall Park.

Ms. Pursley is a June graduate of South Bruns­wick High School and will be attending Fairleigh Dickenson University in September.

This scholarship award is based on character, Americanism and need. To qualify, candidates must be a child of a veteran who has been honorably di.s- charged, a resident of South Brunswick for twp years immediately prior to applying for the scholarship and a member of the graduating class of a senior high .school in New Jersey.

Following is the essay Ms. Pursley wrote for the scholarship contest.

The Heritage of the American Veteran

June I, 1954 was the day the American president Dwight D. Eisenhower signed an act of Congress pro­claiming "to honor veterans on the eleventh of No­vember of each year... a day dedicated to world peace." This holiday and the following in the United Slates: the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the .U S. (VFW), Disabled American Veter­ans (DAV), and the American Veterans World War II. Korea, and Vietnam, remind Americans of the cour­age and leadership of our armed forces and their ef­forts to protect and defend our country. These various groups and others related la veterans are designed to relieve distre.ss in families ^f members and other vet­erans, or to support measures that promote the welfare and security of the United States. Overall, the organi­

zations reinforce the moral and social values that their members defended by their military service.

Personally acknowledging these veteran associa­tions and observing Veteran's Day are not the only factors that make me realize all these people have done for us, whether or not the United States was at war. In my family most of the men on n\y father’s side in the past two generations have each joined one of the armed forces of America. My father was in the U S. Navy during'the' I970's and was mainly station­ed in the Mediterranean Sea. My uncle, my father's brother, also joined the U S. Navy during the I960's and fought in the Vietnam War. My grandfather, their dad, was a part of the U.S. Navy and fought in World War II. Therefore from all their experiences I-get to hear a lot about what they did in the forces, how meaningful it was for them, what they learned, and whom they met My father always says to me that one thing he has learned from joining the navy and travel­ing to numerous countries is that America is the best place to live and how lucky we are to live here.

In my own opinion, after visiting a few countries,I would have to agree with my father, America is the best. In our country we have almost everything and anything we could ever ask for because of the govern­ment and the economy. 1 believe this all would not be possible if it were not for those veterans who foughfa while back for America's freedom. Maybe if we had not won the Revolutionary War and declared our in­dependence on July 4, 1776, the United States would not be the grand country it is today!

leave school early as part of the schools work-rclcase program, which allows some students to earn credits working outside of school.

Other students are only in school to finish a few credits be­fore graduation and are not re­quired to be there the full day. Mr. Valenti said some students may leave as early as 10:50 a m.

Walden Pond Way resident Su san Maloney disagreed.

"I'm home during the day and there are kids w ho leave before 11 a.m. It's real: it's happening." she said.

To battle the problem of smok­ing by some students. Mr Valenti said the school offers a "smoke- enders" program in an effort to help students kick the habit that may contribute to the disruptive, behavior.

, In addition. Mr. Biddle said the schwl met last year, w ith 10 to 20 students who were believed to be parking off-campus to try to allevi­ate the problem, fie said the meet ing with the students was held with the help of several members of the South Brunswick Police Depart­ment.

SchtKtl Business Administrator Jeff Scott said the school takes at­tendance for every class and said students who skip class are disci­plined under the cut policy

"They suffer the conse­quences." he said.

Mr. Scott said even before the high schrxil was built, the district was mindful of protecting the in­tegrity of the neighborhood.

"We want trr be good neigh­bors." he said,

Anton Mast, a Tree f'arm Road resident, said the district lias not ' succeeded in its wish.

"You have become had neieh-

bors." he said.Mr. Mast said he wants the

township to enact regulations that wcruld limit street parking in the area Me also wondered if the towiiship has any profanity laws on the b(K)ks and said residents are often cursed at by students when asked to move their cars.

Ms. Maloney said a student re­cently "swung a chain" at her as she was backing out of her drive- wiiy. She said the police told her to sign a complaint but she did not because she feared retaliation.

Ms. Maloney also said when parked cars block mailboxes, rcsi-

jdents often do not receive mail be cause federal regulations prohibit mail carriers from getting out of their trucks.

On Tuesday. Cliff Lutter. su­pervisor at the Monmouth Junction Post Office, confirmed that on ru­ral routes carriers are not supposed to lease their sehicles to deliser

mail find will bypass blocked boxes.

"They pass it right on by," he said.

Although they were expressing their frustration with the parking situation, many residents said they appreciated the board’s willingness to help resolve it. Ms. Maloney said Mr. Biddle has been helpful in trying to track students down when residents report cars blocking their mailboxes.

Mark Russo of Walden Pond Way said he appreciated the board's efforts and said he realized the problem was with a small per­centage of students.

Board members expressed their concern over the problems resi­dents were having but repeated that they cannot legally prevent students from parking on public streets.

Board member John Oliveira, who lives in the Fresh Impressions

development', but on the other side from where the problem exists, said he hopes the board can work with the community to improve the situation. He added that responsi­bility also lies with the students and their parents.

“It comes down to kids not be­ing good citizens and their parents not teaching them to be g o ^ citi­zens,” he said.

H oard m em ber M atthew Speesler said he faced a similar problem in his Kendall Park neigh­borhood when commuters would park on residential streets before getting on buses. He .said the prob­lem stopped when residents called police whenever they saw a car vi­olating parking regulations such as parking too close to a comer or a driveway. He said once police be­gan ticketing, commuters were de­terred from parking in his neigh­borhood.

Dr. Speesler said he hopes po­

lice pressure on the situation in Monmouth Junction will help alle‘ vkfi the problem but added that the district cannot keep students from parking off-campus if they choose.

“How much more can we do?" he said.

Board member Harry Delgado, a lieutenant with the South Bfuns^ wick Police Department, said he feels the police are doing a good job and the matter is not just a job for law enforcement. He said the community needs to come to the table to point out the particulars of the problem in order to assist po­lice, especially in light of the township’s growing population.

The Shared Services Commit­tee. a group with representation from the council and the school board, meets today and will dis­cuss the problem, according to board member Bryan Laurita. the committee chairwoman.

impact the construction of a train statitiii w'ould have the town. The proposed rail line would run down the center of the two Rail­road avenue In Jamesburg. which scr\e as the borough's main street.

"Jamesburg will get killed if this rail line e\er happens." said .Mr. .Sieni. ".No one's going to gel cd'f a train in Jamesburg lo buy a loaf of bread from the bakery. It's not going to help them financial­ly."

Mr. Sieni suggested supporters of additional rail sci \ice for Mon­mouth and Ocean ci^unties recon­sider running a train through Red Bank.

\.l 'I'ransii had planned a more direct route running from Lake- wood to Red Bank, w here it would join the Noiih Jersey Coast Line. .Sen. Singer has said the proposal lo run the train through Monmouth Junction was the only option Mon­mouth and Ocean ctiiinties could agree ,on.

could get if iho^e trains were re­placed with commuter trains, which would pass by her house more frequently.

"We wouldn’t be able to live here anymore," she said.

George Morris, whose house is at the intersection of Haypress Road and4he railroad track*, said the MOM Line proposal is “totally out of the question."

Mitsoo Nanavaty, who moved ■-to L'Amour Court in Dayton about one year ago. said the rail line has been defeated before and there’s no reason to bring it up again. Her neighbors a few houses down were concerned about the safety of chil­dren who like to ride their bikes on a trail along the rail road tracks.

Dilip Patel, whose L'Amour Court back yard abuts the rail road tracks, said he’s also perplexed that this plan could be resurrected.

"They shot this down and now it's hack again." he said. “I don’t know how this could happen."

Mr. Patel said he doesn't want to oppose a plan that would help commuters but some kind of safety precautions must be taken before a train line runs by his house.

“I knew when I bought this house that there may someday be trains running here," he said. “If you have a well, sooner or later you’re going to have water. If you have tracks, sooner or later you’re going to have a train. But this fence along the tracks is not high enough to keep kids from hopping over. There's a real danger here."

John and Lori Maffei, who can see the tracks from their front porch, agreed that some kind of safely barrier would have to be constructed to protect neighbor­hood children.

Maria Zemel. who lives bn Al­lison Court in Monmouth Walk, can also see the railroad tracks from her front porch. She was ini­tially in favor of the MOM Line but changed her mind when she learned there would be no station for South Brunswick passengers.

Her neighbor, Rachel Tanner, said she wouldn’t mind the MOM Line proposal if it didn’t run by her neighborhood.

"I don’t think I’d care if the train was rerouted." she said. "Tm just against it because it would run through here. ”

"I have a problem with it," she

said. “Especially if I can’t benefit from it,"

Linda and Robert Kahrmann, also of Allison Court, said they didn’t think there would be too many people in Monmouth and Ocean counties who would opt to take a train to New York that goes west before it goes north.

“Assuming this proposal gets past all the opposition, you’re looking at a two-hour trip if you take that train," said Mr. Kahr­mann.

Mr. Kahrmann also questioned the number of people who were actually behind the MOM Line proposal.

“I see politicians; but I don't see any people in Lakewood say­ing please give us a train." he said.

“This rail line has no physical use here,” said the Kahnmanns' neighbor Larry Zatkow “If they are going to do it why don’t they run the track through the middle of a field somewhere, and not through our neighborhood. This made no sense a couple a years ago and it makes even less sense today. I guess it’s time to call the homeowners association up and start a committee again."

Township Attorney Ben Busch wanted more time to review the proposed ordinances, saying there were some ambiguities in one that should be clarified. He was also concerned that the ordinances may be open for challenge if they pre­empt existing federal laws.

For example, the ordinance aimed at requiring disclosure state­ments for "major" zoning variance applications doesn’t define what it considers to be major, said Mr. Busch.

Councilman Frank Gambatese wanted to know why the proposed ordinance was limited to just zon­ing board applications and not Planning Board applications.

The proposed ordinance only covers a small chunk of applica­tions in town, because one that was too broad might run the risk of a challenge, said Flora Edwards, Common Cause’s attorney. The or­

dinance aims to apply only to ap­plications that would significantly alter the township’s Master Plan.

Regardless, the council asked Mr. Busch to review thoroughly the two ordinances to root out oth­er ambiguities and also to find ways to strengthen the policies.

“These ordinances are a good start,” said MayOr Debra Johnson. "But 1 think we need to look fur­ther”

Since September, Common Cause has been successful in con­vincing Meluchen, East Bruns­wick, Sayreville, Princeton Town­ship, Westfield and Camden to ban fund-raising on public property. It has convinced Edison to adopt its ordinance requiring disclosure in­formation on major zoning appli­cations. And it has convinced Mor­ristown to adopt both.

After the presentation, Ms. Ed­wards explained the ordinance

banning fund-raising on public property would not apply to events such as annual picnics in township parks hosted by the South Bruns­wick Democrat and Republican parties.

The law is geared more to­wards banning use of public prop­erty, like a township fax machine or telephone, for political fund­raising, she said.

“When people are here in the municipal btrilding, they are here to do the government’s business, not the business of politics," said Ms. Edwards.

She also defended the zoning disclosure ordinance saying the law was written to cover only cer­tain zoning applications becaii.se Common Cause didn’t want resi­dents who were seeking approvaj for small projects to be inconven-' ienced by the requirements of the law.

from reports issued hy legislators representing Central Jersey com­munities and other items o f politi­cal concern.

U ndercover stingGov, Christie Whitman on July

7 said undercover law enforcement efforts designed to help curtail ille­gal underage drinking throughout Shore resort areas in New Jersey have demonstrated encouraging early results.

Preliminary statistics from the Divisions of Alcoholic Beverage ■ Control and Stale Police show 152 underage drinking arrests made from Memorial Day through the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

Under the Cops in Shops pro­gram, local police officers and

state troopers, work undercover in participating retail locations. Law enforcement officers either pose as store employees or are positioned outside an establishment to appre­hend adults who attempt to pur­chase alcohol for underage drink­ers.

According to the ABC, 23 sea­shore communities are participat­ing in the Cops in Shops program for the summer months, A total of approximately $75,000 in federal money administered through the Divisions of Highway Traffic Safety and ABC has been dedi­cated for the program.

According lo the ABC, since the program’s inception, more than 800 underage persons and persons of legal age who have purchased for underage persons have'been ar­

rested.Underage drinkers face a min­

imum fine of $500 and a mandato ry loss of their drivers’ licenses for six months. Adults who purchase alcohol for underage drinkers can go to jail for six months and face a $1,000 fine.

'According to the State Police, more than 860 arrests of underage persons anjji. persons of legal age vvho purefiased alcohol for the un­derage resulted since the pro­gram’s inception in 1995.

Establishments selling or serv­ing to minors face suspension of their liquor license and/or a mone­tary fine. Underage drinkers face the same penalties as under the Cops in Shops program, a min­imum $500 fine and loss 'bf driv­er’s license for six months.

Twelve South Brunswick high SchtKrI students participated in the 14th Annual Chemistry Olympics, a competition for exceptional high .school .students, at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark on April 28.

Under the supervision of chemistry instructor. Theresa Fari- nclla, the students entered six of 10 events and placed fourth out of 27 high school teams.

Nadeem Riaz, senior and Pra- bu Soundarajan, junior, were first place in the Web Page Design competition. Judging criteria in eluded ease of use, relevance of topic, computer -coding, a written report and a presentation.

Erin Sterenson. a senior and Gavaskar Balasingam and Nirav Shah, both juniors, were third place in the nomenclature test on PC terminals. Names and formulas of 50 different organic and inor­ganic compounds had to be de­termined.

Tracy Quinlan, a senior and Kim Young, a junior, placed .sev­enth in an information search, a competition in which they answer­ed five cherrgstry related quc.s- tions.

Rita Banerjee and Gene Rie- go DeDios, juniors, were seventh place in the Environmental Analy­sis event. In this competition, wa­ter from a polluted stream was tested for a variety of cations and anions. The students wrote a report explaining their procedure, sug­gested a likely source of contami­

nation, described biological effects and proposed possible clean-up technologies.

Gene also teamed with Sun- jesh Bagaria. a junior, in the Mi­croscale Experiments portion of the Olympics. They determined the concentration and type of an un­known acid solution using small scale chemistry mcthtxls. The stu­dents were judged on accuracy,| time, acid type and a graph they drew. They won eighth place.

Rama Ayyala and Carol Chan, juniors, placed ninth in their division after they worked together to construct a model of a pharma­ceutical product.

Stop and smell the rosesBy llene DubeTile PaeVet G roup

Fed up with trying to fend off deer and moles from your floribun- da roses? Can't keep up with the Japanese beetles on your grandi- floras? Black spot and powdery mildew on your hybrid teas getting you down?

It may be time to take a break from your own rose garden and visit the Rudolf W. van der Goot Rose Garden in Colonial Park in East Millstone.

In this single sunny acre, more than 3,000 roses of 285 varieties are carefully tended by a staff of expert gardeners.

Red. Pink. Coral. Salmon. Peach. Pinkish white. Pale yellow. Yellow-tinged pink. Frotri date spring until fall, more shades than there are words to describe can be observed here. In fact, at first glance, the burst of color is so overwhelming, one needs lo regain equilibrium before taking a second look.

“It is one of the lop 10 rose gardens in the nation, and one of 24 nationwide gardens sanctioned by All-America Rose Selections, Inc.,” says, writer Arline Zatz, whose recently released book. “New Jersey’s Great Garden:^ A Four-Season Guide to 125 Public Gardens, Parks, and Arboretums” (The Countrymen Press, $17, pa­perback) describes the garden.

Ms. Zatz, a Metuchen resident, visited every garden in the book, including “too many that didn t pan out — they were just weeds. Gardens have to be maintained, and it’s often done by volunteers," she said. She was impressed by the professional, paid staff at the van der Goot garden.

While walking through its fra­

grance and sensory garden — one of her favorite places — Ms. Zatz, on a recent visit; to the van der G(K)t, remarked "you can see what you want for your own garden here. " The scents of pineapple sage, hyssop. English lavender, bee balm, lemon-scented geranium and summer savory commingled as bumblebees carried pollen from one plant to another.

The fragrance and sensory gar­den is wheelchair accessible, and names of the plants are given in Braille, at hand level along the rails.

The rose garden and surround­ing arboretum were originally part of the Mettler Estate, a working farm, and the first section of the garden was developed from the re­mains of the original formal gar­den. Rudolf W. van der Goot was the first horticulturist with the Somerset County Park Commis­sion and designed and developed the garden. Brick-edged paths, flagstone walks and a small pool arc part of the original.

The garden is geometric in structure, with brick paths leading around the different sections. At one end is the gazebo, from where a visitor can get an overall view of the garden. The first section in­cludes hybrid roses, tree roses and “Grandmother’s Garden,” planted with roses popular before World W arn.

Climbing roses cascading along trellises envelope tJie second section of the garden, with polyan- tha roses, hybrid teas and minia­tures planted along the walk.

This sec(ion is surrounded by a brick path ^uilt in honor of U.S. Representative and United Nations Ambassador Millicent Fenwick. Ms. Zatz had worked for Ms. Fen­wick wheri Ms. Fenwick was di­

rector of the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs in the 1970s. “I really admired Millicent,” said Ms. Zatz. “She would put a pipe in her mouth and smoke it when a press person came to see her.”

The third section has been de­signed in a formal Dutch style, where historic heritage roses are planted alongside modem hybrids.

Roses are kept here only if they thrive in central New Jersey.

"This is the prettiest rose gar­den I’ve ever seen,” said Judy Clark, one ol three year-round gar­deners working in the van der Goot. ”It’s laid out nicer than the gardens at the New York Botanical Garden and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.” Ms. Clark and the other gardeners use fungicides to control black spot at Rudolf W. van der Goot. “Japanese beetles are not a big problem," said Ms. Clark.

But the deer are. A fence sur­rounds the garden, but the deer have been known to jump the fence in the winter months and eat the rose buds. “We call this ‘non- selective pruning,’” said Bonny Levine, another gardener on staff.

When visiting any garden, Ms. Zatz recommends taking along the following: waterproof sun screen, insect repellent, a hat, comfortable clothing, sunglasses, plenty of wa­ter, binoculars for bird watching, a magnifying glass (“1 love to get up close to the flowers”), a camera with lots of film, and field books, for identifying trees, butterflies and wildflowers. She also recom­mends going early in the morning when the light is better, calling ahead to check hours, and avoiding perfume — it can attractjnsects.

Ms. Zatz, has also" written “New Jersey’s Special Places,” “30 Bicycle Tours in New Jersey,” and “Best Hikes with Children in New Jersey.”

David Goy tries unsuccessfully to turn a double play against Iselin Saturday morning, as Post 401 did not get an out on the play.

Post 401 ’s late-season surge provides legion playoff berth

By P.V. BenjaminSports W riter

Three weeks ago the South Brunswick Ameri­can Legion baseball team was 6-9-1.

They may as well have been 10-4: as in over and out.

Three weeks later, by virtue of nine wins in their last K) games, the team is now up and over and in the Middlesex County League playoffs. By w'inning three of four games last week they locked up fifth place.

Ironically, the lone loss during that stretch was the only game played at home.

South Brunsw'ick took a 15-10-1 record into Wednesday's game at Clara Barton, the team it will face in the county tournament. The regular season ends Thursday in a game at Perth Amboy

No matter the outcome of both games, SB will begin a best-of-three scries with Barton beginning Sunday. Should they survixe. they would advance to the 32-team state tournament.' Four Middlesex Coutity teams will be placed in different brackets around the state.

The stiite tournament commences July 24 and

is a double-elimination event. South Brunswick qualified last year following a 20-8 season Previ­ously they had not made the states since 1993

"1 like our chances better than last year." assist­ant coach Kevin Kolans said after the team's tour­nament-clinching win over South .Xniboy Tuesday. “If our pitching comes through, xxe ha\e a g<x)d shot.”

The hitting continues to come through, oxer and around. In the three xxins Iasi xveek SB scored 38 runs.

The late-season w inning streaj^ reached sexen a week ago in a 15-3 rout of St. Joseph's. Daxid Goy (2-1) picked up the win in relief, pitching hitless ball for 2y> innings. Sammy Lawrence and James Coleman connected on two-run homers in the sec­ond inning, when South plated 11 runs. Coleman and Matt Vibronek each scored txxice in the inning. Greg Benedetto had two hits in the game.

The winning streak had an abrupt end xxhen Edison's Bob Brownlie fired a one-hitter last Sat­urday in a 12-1 disaster. It was a game in which nothing went right for South Brunswick. The liKals

Bressler, Potter get starting nods in Snapple BowiCoppola an assistant in tonight's chanty battle between countiesBy Rich FisherSports Editor

Enemies become friends, coun­ty pride gets put on the line and charities get a boost tonight (Thursday) as Snapple Boxvl VI kicks off at East Brunswick High School with three familiar names on the home team sidelines.

The Middlesex County All- Star senior graduates will try and increase their lead over their Union County counterparts and, in the process, become the first home team to xvin a game in the series

Aiding the Middlesex squad xvill be South Brunswick High graduates Ben Bressler, who will start at defensive end. and Rob Potter, the starting offensive cen­ter Vikings head coach John Cop­pola will once again be part of the coaching staff, as he is handling the defensive ends and also work­ing with the defensive line.

"Our practices have been or­ganized and have run real well.” Coppola said. "We started lafl Monday (July 5) and they really seem to play together as a team "

Middlesex leads the series. 3-2. having won all three games at Union High School, while losing both at EBHS.

"No one's ever won on the home field, so that's something we really want to do this year,” Bressler said.

While Potter will be playing the same position he played last fall for the Vikings. Bressler will be at a position he played sparing­ly during the regular season. Of course. Bressler played every posi­tion sparingly while playing practi­cally every minute.

"He played all over for us last year.” Coppola said. "He was pri­marily a linebacker on defense al­though he played a little defensive end. On offense he started as a guard and tight end and ended the season at fullback.

"Whenever we had injuries to a

key person last year, and we had a lot of them, Ben was the guy who filled in. He could do all those du­ties and he played them well "

Bressler. xvho stands 6-foot. 240 pxxunds. will try and walk on at The College of New Jersey this fall. He has a meeting scheduled with Lions coach Eric Hamilton over where he might like to play. Coppola feels that due to Bressl- cr's size, linebacker will be his best sptxt in college.

"But he's doing a nice job at defensive end right now ," Coppola added. "He's kind of slimmed down over the last two years and he's kind of an in-between player. He would be an outside lineback er-type person (at TCNJ) but right now he's holding his own at defen­sive end at the high school all-star level.

"'Ben's family has come through our program (including brothers Cullen and Greg) and he's the last one. so it's nice to see him get the opportunity to play in this game.”

Bressler likes the aggressive tactics being used by Edison coach Tom Gargiulo. who's the Middle­sex defensive coordinator (EB coach Marcus Borden is the offen­sive coordinator).

“We have a whole bunch of stunts we've been running that in­volves everybody." Bressler said "My size for this game may be a

bad thing for me. but I'm pretty comfortable with defensive end right now. I feel we have a solid defense so 1 feel comfortable with the guys I'm playing with.”

Potter, who, could not be reached for comment, stanrks only 5-7. 190 pounds and will he flank­ed by some monsters on the offen­sive line. But Coppola like's his center's hean.

Both SBAA 8’s nothing short of greatGold/Black each win two titles; lO's also win their second crownBy Fred MelendezSports W riter

The youngesi all-stars are quickly turning into the most suc- ce.ssfut all-stars for the .South Brunswick Alhiclic Association.

The SBAA 8-year-old Gold team won a pair of tournament championships during the past week, taking home the crowns at East Brunswick and Branchhurg, Meanwhile the 8-year-old Black team won its .second title by cop­ping the Hopexxell Valley Tourna­ment.

The Golc(s took home the Branchhurg cjiampionship with a 3-2 win over Mount Olive last Fri­day. Devin Rogan allowed two runs and struck out five in three in­nings, while Bryan Keller pitched three scoreless innings. Tim Lewis and Troy Confessore each had a single and an RBI

Two days earlier, the Golds took a 21-4 win over Edison to xyin the EB tourney. Bryan Keller won the MVP trophy by pitching three innings and allowing four runs. Rogan pitched the final inning as

Bonfig­lio allowed two runs in three in­nings against Levittown. while §hiraldi and Olsson h a itw o sin­gles apiece. Dunleavy’s grand slam in the second inning put the game away.

T he Golds played for the Ham­ilton championship Wednesday night, after press time. Wednesday night, after press time.

If things continue to roll like they did in the semifinals of the Hopewell Valley Tournament. Black team manager Mike Muha will sOon seek medical attention.

"At 38. I don't k n t^ how many more of these, types of games my heart can tdke,” Muha said after his team pulled out a fi­nal at-bat, 6-5 victory over the host squad.

All hearts pounded as South Brunswick staged a frenetic finish. With two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning in a tie game. Michael Oates doubled and Cory Allen sin­gled him home with the game-win­ning run.

That created a rematch against Amwell Valley, the team that pushed SBAA into the. losers bracket of the tournament.

straight games to win this touma- I ment.” Muha said.

Mission accomplished — with authority! South Brunswick cranked up a 17-3 conquest to claim the Hopewell Valley Tour­nament crown. It’ was the second for the Black 8's.

“Our infield played great," Muha said. Colin Muchanic, Mi­chael Oates, Evan Beck and Mi­chael Weisgether were solid in limiting Amwell Valley to three runs. Mike Muha Jr. paced SBAA’s attack with a double, two singles and five RBI.

Moving to the North Bruns­wick Tournament, South Bruns­wick recorded a l-l record to date. A forgettable outing got things

•started.“We lost to Edison, 20-1,"

Muha said. “There was poor coaching, poor hitting and poor fielding in that game ’

Muha enjoyed his squad's in­stant response, as it rallied for a 20-8 win over Ea.st Brunswick.

\Jaking his pitching debut, Danny Acevedo collected the win, fanning four batters. Muchanic and Muha Jr. both contributed to the mound effort. Robbie Frey. Mi­chael Wei.sgerber and Chris Bluem paced SBAA’s attack. Greg Allen and Jared Kling handled outfield chores with quality precision.

lO-YEAR-OLDSThe 10-year-old Gold team

continues to sparkle as it rallied for an 8-6 victory over South Plain- field to capture the Piscataway Tournament Championship last Sunday.

It was the second title of the tourney season for the lO's, who have a 17-3 record.

“Everything possible went wrong the first two innings," man­ager Gary Mariano said, “and we had plenty of reason to fold our tents and go home, but these kids never quit.

“I'm extremely proud of the ef­fort we put out game after game. This team has lots of heart."

Trailing 3-1 entenng the fifth. South Brunswick exploded for seven runs. Mike Majchrzak started the rally with an infield sin­gle and Kevin Namjoo followed with aTtit to the fence that scored Majchrzak. Mike Powers tied it with an RBI triple, and Russ Grim­es and Mike Mariano followed with walks to load the bases. Matt Forthun’s infield single scored one run. Jake Jaskowski drew an RBI walk. John Haas was hit by a pitch to force in a run, Clancy had an RBI single and Majchrzak hit a sacrifice fly to cap the rally.

The game turned dramatically in the third inning on an outstand­ing defensive play by pitcher Nam­joo. Leading 2-1 with runners at second and third and none out, Namjoo pounced on a slow roller down the first base line and tagged the passing runner, then whipped the ball to Forthun at honne who nabbed the runner at third. Namjoo then struck out the next hitter.

“1 don't think there’s ever been a pitcher who helps himself with his defense more than Kevin,” Mariano said. “There are plenty of places to hit the ball, but when Ke­vin’s on the mound, up the middle is not an option...it’s an out.”

SB finished the tournament 8-0 and scored 111 runs in the process. Namjoo was tourney MVP after going 3-0 on the mound and hit­ting .700 (21-for-30) with 13 RBI and 15 runs scared.

One day earlier. Grimes pitched SBAA to a 13-3 win over Franklin Township in the semifi­nals. Grimes allowed one hit and fanned six in four innings, while Forthun slammed a two-run homer that broke the game open in the fourth.

“Russell is .so consistent and so good, we often take his perform­ances for granted,” Mariano said. “Russ is the equalizer. When he’s on the mound, we can compete with anyone.”

As for Forthun. the manager said "Matt has been hitting every­thing on the screws lately. It was only a matter of li,me before he left the yard. It was an impressive sight."

' SBAA earned the top seed in the playoff finals with a 17-2 win over South Bound Brook. Clancy. Forthun. Namjoo and Jaskowski had three hits and two RBI apiece, while Namjoo, Jaskowski and Clancy ^combined on a six-hitter with just one walk.

“Jake has reall>wimpressed .on the hill.” Mariano said. "You can never have enough pitching and Jake is beginning to pile up valu­able innings, keeping our staff fresh.”

A day earlier, Bobby Fiesta (six RBI, three runs) and Majchr­zak (two RBI. five runs) each went 5-for-5 as SBAA took a .30-5 win over Elmora. Grimes added four hits, including a triple, and a walk, while Forthun had two doubles and a single.

Kyle Keller and Jas­kowski all had RBI singles. Haas finished 3-for-4 with a double, two

--fsingles and five RBI, while For­thun, Adam Kinder and Fiesta combined to go 5-for-5 with three walks. Grimes, Forthun and Nam­joo did the pitching.

least one hit and scored one run. Crimes. Mariano and Forthun had three hits and five RBI each. Kind­er sparked two big rallies with sin­gles, while Keller made his pitch­ing debut by throwing the final inning.

12-YEAR-OLDSPeople who work overtime

usually reap extra rewards, as the 12’s found in the Branchburg Tournament last week.

“We were tied with Branch­burg, 6-6, in the top of the lOth in­ning, ” manager David Smart said. 'T im Bamshaw got on base and Brandon Hair hit a two-run homer”

SBAA got a third run as Brian Holder delivered an RBI single following singles by Chris Dillon and Sean Farrell, capping a thrill­ing 9-6 victory.

“We got great pitching from five pitchers,” Smart said. ‘Travis Smart and Sean Farrell combined to pitch six innings and allowed just one run.”

South Brunswick erupted for 16 hits. Colin Rogari, Travis Smith and Smart all slapped three hits while Hair, Farrell and Holder roped two hits apiece.

Then, something completely unexpected happened.

“We gave the kids the next day off,” Smart said. “We played Branchburg on Thursday and just went into a funk. We had numer­ous errors and just six hits.”

That translated into an 11-2 loss. Kevin McDonald drove home both SBAA runs wijh a fifth-in­ning single.

The ensuing practice session awakened South Brunswick for a Saturday doubleheader. Taking its new life into the North Edison Tournament, SBAA erupted for a 14 -1 conquest of South Plainfield.

“Everybody had at least one hit for us,” Smart said. “Colin Rogan went 3-for-4. Brian Holder pitched a complete game, allowing just five hits."

With Rogan aboard, Victor Cruz launched South Brunswick's assault with a two-ran homer in the first inning. Bamshaw, Farrell

and Hair all connected for two hits.South played the nightcap in

the South Amboy Tournament, and a tight-fisted battle saw Perth Am­boy emerge with a 2-1 win. PA got

“Our bats just didn't fire." Smart said. “Every hard-hit ball was right at somebody. "

South Brunswick atoned in Sunday’s game at the North Edi­son tournament. Facing the host squad. SBAA took a 13-3 win. Chris Dillon’s two-run homer in the fourth turned a 3-2 deficit into a 4-3 lead and sparked the run­away win.

“That ball’s probably still going,” Smart said. “It was a huge home run”

T. Smart pitched a complete game and helped himself with three of his teams' 15 hits. Hair. Smith, Farrell and Dillon all pro­duced two hits.

13-YEAR-OLDSSouth Bmnswick reached the

winner's bracket final of the East Brunswick Tournament before los­ing to North Edition. 4-2. Bryan Sock hit a 320-foot homer to give SBAA a 1-0 first-inning lead, but North Edison scored three in the fourth and one in the fifth to keep it close. South's final mn came in the bottom of the fifth when Corey Griffin singled home Dane Marini. Sock and Marini combined on a six-hitter with 13 strikeouts and just three walks.

South Brunswick exploded of­fensively in its other two tourna­ments, and the fireworks were so good the games went into extra in- nings.

In the' Edison Tournament, South topped East Brunswick, 13-12, in nine innings.

“It was a back and forth game where we had our opportunities to win,” manager Mark Stxrk said. “We had a one-run lead in the sev­enth and a three-run lead in the eighth but East Brunswick tied it

Then came the North Edison Tournament, where it “only” took eight innings and four hours to drop an 18-17 game against Hills­borough.

"We had a 17-9 lead after five innings," Sock said. “We ju.st couldn’t get anybody out in the last few innings. Both teams hit the ball It was just a matter of who could score more.”

Anthony iMauro and Griffin anchored South Brunswick’s at­tack with four hits apiece. Mauro smacked two doubles and drove in two runs. Griffin scorched a triple and double and scored four runs. Sock had three hits (including a double), four RBI and four runs, while Evan Mahoney (three RBI) and Keith Menscher (two RBI) each had two hits.

Il-YEAR-OLDS George Albert's crew have

given virtually all opponents a tough battle.

"We've been in almost every game and had just one blowout against us.” Altert said. “We’ve lost four games by an average of two runs. Our team is playing well. We re having some trouble putting our offense and defense together.”

Participating in the Cranford Toujiiament, South Brunswick generated a third-place finish, be­ing thwarted. 3 -1. by host Cran­ford.

"We got very good pitching from Tyler Chromey," Albert said. "HE worked five innings, gave up three hits and struck out five. Only two of Cranford’s runs were earned. It was a very well played game. We just didn’t give Tyler any offensive support.”

Brian Rowe and Michael Tic- chio paced SBAA with two hits apiece. Ticchio ripped a double while David Stefanowitz produced ■South Brunswick’s lone run with an RBI single.

South Brunswick rebounded for a0 /- l win over Scotch Plains/ Fanwood. Dan Gurney’s four-plus innings of relief steadied the course.' “Dan just shut the door on them,’’ Albert said. “He allowed no runs, one hit and struck out eight.”

Gurney also had two hits and two runs scored, while Mike Greenberg hit a home run and a double that accounted for three RBI

That verdict created a rematch against Cranford. Both teams dis­covered their offense, but SBAA fell, 12-9.

“Our offense came around,” Albert said. “We just gave up a few hits and left 14 men on base. We just couldn’t get timely hits.”

Brian Binder joined Gurney and Greenberg in spearheading SBAA’s assault with three hits apiece, all three •lumberjacks deliv­ered one double. Jonathan Sock and Rowe both had two hits.

Moving to the Piscataway Tournament, the fireworks contin­ued. Branchburg joined South Brunswick in an extra-inning affair and took an 8-7 win. r

“It was a really well played game,” Albert said. “Mike Green­berg gave us six good innings and Tyler Chromey closed the game. It was 5-5 after six innings and both teams had 11 hits. We lost on an unearned run.” i

Greenberg had a double and triple while the equally hot Gurney had a double and single. Matt Hart and Sock both tripled.

SBAA bounced back Sunday with a 7-23 win' over Edison. Chromey allowed one hit and struck out six in four innings. A.J. Albert hit a triple and single for three RBI. while Ticchio had a tri­ple and single and Greenberg had a double and single.

9-YEAR-OLDSA busy weekend translated into

a 2-1 record for Pat Perrone’s squad. Playing in the Piscataway Tournament, SBAA beat the hosts,14-7. Connor Henderson led the way with two doubles, two singles and five RBI, while Vinnie Caputo had two doubles, a single and three RBI. Jeff White, Daren Caesar and Doug fertpne each had two hits. ^ while Caesar had a triple. White had three RBI and Perrone had two RBI. Chris Sisco and Caputo combined on a three-hitter.

Sunday produced a 13-11 win over South County in the Fleming- ten Tournament.

“South County is a combina­tion of three or four towns,” Per­rone said. “They’re a very power­ful team, so beating them was a major accomplishment for our kids. How we beat them was fan­tastic.

“The game, ended with South County having runners at first and second and their best hitter ripping a single to center field. Daren Cae­sar threw home, Doug Perrone caught it and dove back to the plate to make the tag that ended the game.”

Caputo supplied an equally electric start to this game.

“Vinnie went yard in the first inning (with Caesar on base)” Per­rone said. “He really ripped the ball, that’s a big thing for a nine- year old.”

Caputo later launched a bases- loaded double, giving him five rib- bies for the game. Zach Zenda connected for two hits that drove home three runs. Daniel Keenan and Caesar supplied outstanding pitching.

Returning to Piscataway Sun­day, tough times struck for South Brunswick as a 6-0 lead turned into a 7-6 loss to Hunterdon when the winning run was walked home in the bottom of the sixth. Daniel Keenan pitched no-hit ball for three innings.

“Our kids played great de­fense,” Perrone said. “We just couldn’t hold the lead.”

Playoffs.Continued from Page 14A

were hitless into the seventh inning at Sondek Park before a grounder between third and short was scored a hit for Brian Johnson. Brownlie, bound for Rutgers, struck out eight, and walked four and hit two batters.

The team bounced back with an 11-7 win over Piscataway Monday. Benedetto got the juices flowing right off the bat with a three-run shot in the opening inning. He wound up with three hits and five RBI’s on the night. Jimmy McDonald had a single and double and four RBI’s, and Sammy Lawrence added three hits (2 doubles) and two ribbies. Mike James picked up the win in relief

In the 12-1 win at South Amboy, it was only 1-0 going ftito the fifth inning. Brett Tanzman set the alarm by reaching on a walk, then stole his team-lead­ing 11 tit base. He came around to score on a double by McDonald. After Lawrence reached on an error, Johnson doubled in McDonald and then Benedetto singled in Lawrence. By the time the inning was over

SB led 7-1 and the season was a success.Lawrence, McDonald and Goy each had two hits

and an RBI, The team knocked out 13 hits. McDon­ald, now 6-2,' picked up the win on a one-hitter over six innings. And lowered his ERA to 3.89.

Tanzman, of Kendall Park, upped his batting aver­age to .316 during the week. He now has 11 RBTs, and has played terrific shortstop during the lO-game stretch.

With a league-leading 23 home runs as a ieam, Johnson has knocked out seven and McDonald six. They, along with Benedetto and Lawrence, have combined to drive in 92 runs. All four outgoing sen­iors are also hitting over .400, with “Benny” leading the way at .475. ^

To go from 6-9-1 to possibly 17-10-1 would be quite a turnaround. To get this far, and to be playing this well, however, should not be enough. TTiere is still enough time, and obviously enough talent, to turn the season into even more.

who worked himself into being a starter >m our football team." the coach said. "He put a tremendous amount of time into weight train­ing and conditioning and it really helped his performance. He u every snap for us, he never ny: a practice and he's a real gtjrt^fs tent, dependable player."

Aside from wanting to become the first home team to win a game, the Middlesex all-stars are again fueled by the support from patients at the Lakeview Hospital in Edison for Cerebral Palsy. Lakeview is the charily that Middlesex is playing for. while Union plays for the Children s Hospital for Specialized Medicine in Mountanside. All pro­ceeds go to thosd institutions.

On Monday. Middlesex attend­

ed the annual pep rally al Lake- view.

‘‘You get in there and look al the kids and feel good about being there and making them happy, giv­ing them some inspiration and showing them you care about

m," Bressler said "They made us feel good too. They announced your name and the kids just go nuts. They have pom poms and the finger signs and they make you re­ally feel important.

“It also makes you think, and you take into consideration what you have. You never want to take anything for granted: And the way they cheer, you feel like you have to go out and win jl for them "

Coppola notes that every year, the coaching staff sees a change in

the team's practices after the pep rally.

"I think it really helps set the lone for the week of the game." he said. "At practice, the kids are more intense. They know it's game week, but coming from that pep rajly the game means even more, because they see those kids and they all of a sudden know what the game is really all about."

It's about county pride...and helping out.

And who can argue with either of those-causes. '?
