Bomb scarewill promptinvestigation

By Laurie Lynn StrasserStaff Writer

Police will investigate a possible connection be-tween two recent bomb scares — one of whichoccurred Wednesday at a Franklin office building, theother on Saturday at a local department store —Franklin Sgt. Joseph Linsky said.

An anonymous man telephoned Warner InsuranceSystems located in an industrial complex at 23Belmont Drive Wednesday at 9:23 a.m., claiming abomb planted in the building would detonate minuteslater, at 9:30.

"They didn't have a whole lot of time for a searchbecause he only gave them seven minutes," Sgt.Linsky said. "They took a quick look on their wayout the door."

Employees were permitted to re-enter the buildingat 9:50.

An unknown man reportedly placed a similar callSaturday at 11:53 a.m. to the customer service desk atthe Rutgers Plaza K mart on Easton Avenue. He saidthe store would explode at 12:30 p.m.

"The store was evacuated until 12:50," Sgt.Linsky said. "It was still standing so everyone wentback in."

"Both cases will be forwarded to the detectivebureau," Sgt. Linsky said, adding that disgruntledemployees are frequently behind such false alarms.

Council:Sliceschoolbudget

By Laurie tyrm OtraaaorStaff Writer

The Township Council voted un-animously May 16 to slice $878,000from the property taxes that would belevied to support the Franklin publicschools' 1991-92 budget.

"It is unfortunate, with the re-cession, that the school board budgethit the taxpayers as hard as it did,"said Councilman James Walker, amember of the finance subcommittee."We couldn't cut it more."

The Board of Education is ex-pected to accept the new budget if thecouncil does, said school Super-intendent Dennis Clancy shortlybefore the council reached its de-cision. However, he said, "We'renot happy with it."

The Board of Education is legallyentitled to appeal the proposed cutswithin 15 days of the governingbody's decision. It plans a specialmeeting May 30, just under the wire,before the matter is turned over to theSomerset County superintendent ofschool! for final review.

Assuming the revised budget isacceptable to the school board and thecounty superintendent, taxpayers willpay 6 cents less per $100 assessedproperty value than they previouslywould have; the 26.6-cent increaseunder this year's defeated budget willdwindle to 20.6 cents.

The original budget totaled roughly$48.3 million. The voters rejected thetax portion of that budget in an

The courts have turned the tableson a Franklin woman who claimedtwo local police officers mistreatedher son during a March 9 disturbanceat the Rutgers Plaza Cinema.

Patrolmen Patrick Albani and Jef-frey Carter have been cleared ofdisorderly persons charges leveled byDenise Godfrey. Instead, her20-year-old son, Karon, has beenconvicted of similar offenses.

Police reportedly arrested Mr.Godfrey while trying to gain controlover an angry mob of about 125people gathered at the Easton Avenuetheater for a showing of "New JackCity" — a film concerning drugs andgangs that ignited nationwideviolence, even several deaths, whenit debuted in March.

Police claimed they had singled outMr. Godfrey because he "attemptedto agitate the crowd." But, pleadinginnocent to all charges, Mr. Godfreysaid he had been trying to break up afight rather than incite violence.

"It was a very difficult situation,"Franklin Police Chief John Blazakissaid. "There were seven or eightofficers to disperse a crowd of 150unfitly people who could have hadguns or knives. I think they did areasonable job protecting the other2,000 people la the cinema."

Montgomery Township Judge ErikPerkins dismissed those charges May7, l a id court c lerk R e b e c c aEngelmann, adding that the case was

"Because the defendant was not aminor at the time of the incident, hehad to have signed the complaint, butthe charges were dismissed by thestate because his mother had signedit ," Ms. Engelmann explained."Furthermore, she was not even atthe scene."

On the contrary, the judge con-

victed Mr. Godfrey of disorderlyconduct and preventing a law en-forcement officer from performing anofficial function.

He was sentenced on May 14 to 30days in jail. That sentence wassuspended, however, "provided hedisplayed no further involvement indisorderly behavior for a year," Ms.Engelmann said. Mr. Godfrey wasalso fined $95 plus $23 court costsand a $30 fee to the Violent Crimes

The counc i l has s u g g e s t e deliminating $850,500 from the cur-rent expense portion of the budgetand $27,500 from the capital portion.These'cuts represent a compromise.

The council's finance subcommit-tee initially recommended that theschool board slash $1 million. But theschool board's finance committee

suggested shaving $700,000. Thatfigure includes:

• A $ 5 0 0 , 0 0 0 reduction inmedical insurance for staff.

• Elimination of two $25,000positions — an assistant transpor-tation supervisor and a purchasingagent. The people who are currentlyplaced in those jobs "would nolonger be employed come June 30,"said school business administrator J.Raymond Ganim, and their dutieswould be subsumed by others.

• Salary reductions, when jobsturn over, of $10,000 for principals,the same for custodians, and $20,000

for supervisors of instruction.• $10,000 for heating purposes.Council members have pared

another $100,000 from employeehealth insurance, as well as $25,000from out-of-district special educa-tion, $15,000 from architect fees, and$10,000 from gasoline.

The council's deadline for render-ing its decision was Wednesday."It's very important to note thesereductions in no way affect the quali-ty of instruction or educationalservices," said Councilman JohnClyde, when casting a favorable voteThursday. With inflation running be-

Even if they wanted to, neither thecouncil nor the Board of Educationcould decrease the budget by target-ing current teachers' pay because it isalready settled under contract. TheFranklin Township Teachers' As-sociation and the school boardarbitrated a 9.3 percent pay hike anda similar increase for next year onlydays before school began last Sep-tember.

Deputy Mayor Robert Zaborowski,a member of the council financesubcommittee, said it would be "un-realistic" for the Board of Educationto keep giving such hefty raises yearafter year, adding, "I hope the boardtakes this into consideration whenthey enter their next round of nego-tiations in two years."

"We didn't go with a three-yearcontract because we were not pleasedwith the high amount it increases,"said school board member MichaelKanarek. "We're renegotiating."

Troop 113 travels toNittany Lion countryEach year for the past 10 yean,

several Scouts from Boy Scout Troop113 of Somerset travel to State Col-lege, Pa. to "camp" with Scoutt

.from Troop 32.• The "camping" is in a log cabinthat has a complete electric and gaskitchen — including microwave oven— pool table, shuffle board table,card tables, crow's nest and privatelake.

Attendance is awarded to contestwinners based upon their Boy Scout

i rank and office, and their attendanceat regular troop meetings and outings.This year, the Scouts from Troop 113were three Patrol Leaders: Chris

Bohnert, Dennis Cook and DougMayle. They were accompanied byScoutmaster Jeff Brass.

The relationship between the twotrips was first established whenScoutmaster Brass was an assistant inthe Pennsylvania Troop while attend-ing college. But the cement that hasheld the two troops together has beenthe yearly trips of the SomersetScouts to State College, and the twojoint trips to Philmont Scout Ranch inNew Mexico.

This fall, the troops will meet onceagain as Troop 113 of Somerset hoststhe Pennsylvania Scouts as they tourNew York City.

New Playwrights Seriespresents second reading

The Franklin Villagers BarnTheatre will stage the second readingof its New Playwrights Series at 8p.m. Tuesday, May 28. The offeringwill be "Dancing With DesperateWomen," a drama by Luigi Jan-nuzzi.

The reading will be held in thetheater's Zaidi Theatre. Admission isfree. Refreshments will be served andan informal discussion with the play-wright will follow.

An award-winning playwright,Luigi Jannuzzi is a resident of BoundBrook. His plays have been publishedby Samuel French, Inc., and havebeen presented at theaters throughoutthe country as well as at the Edin-burgh Festival in Scotland. He re-

ceived a playwrighting fellowshipfrom the New Jersey State Council onthe Arts in 1987.

" D a n c i n g With DesperateWomen" will be directed by Mark E.Hopkins. Mr. Hopkins, who is artis-tic/managing director of the Vil-lagers, has staged productions of"Jesus Christ Superstar," "TorchSong Trilogy," "Sweeney Todd"and "Working." He is currently inthe process of directing the Villagers'summer presentation of "A ChorusLine."

The Franklin Villagers BarnTheatre is located in the FranklinTownship Municipal Complex at 475DeMott Lane. For further infor-mation: (908) 873-2710.

"The problem is it tends to happenin spurts," he continued. "Oneclown does it, and it stimulates otherpeople into doing such things.Previous employees are ticked off attheir boss for firing them, they read

' about it, and then you get more."Under s ta te l a w , it is a

fourth-degree indictable offense tocirculate "a report or warning of animpending fire, explosion or bomb-ing ... knowing that (it) is false.

baseless and likely to cause evacu-ation." A person convicted of such acrime could face up to a year and ahalf in prison and a $7,500 fine, saidFranklin court administrator RitaSpritzer.

Four other bomb scares have beenreported so far in 1991 — two ofthem in offices, and two at DavidsonAvenue hotels, but those incidentswere probably unrelated because theytook place sporadically in terms oftime and location.

Younger models don't necessarilyhave to be china dolls either. "I'mnot just interested in a cute kid." shestressed. "The most important thingis they have to have an outgoingpersonality."

Ms. McDonald scours tiny totpageants throughout the New Yorkmetropolitan area for young talents tosign on at Al , the agency where sheworks. She is also on the lookout forunsung local talent. "I've comeacross many special kids where theparents don't realize what theyhave," she said.

Ms. McDonald's own children,Emanuel and Charity, catapulted into

the limelight at a tender age. Whenthe fraternal twins were only 5months old, they debuted in BobFosse's Broadway musical "BigDeal.'' The pair has since appeared inTV commercials promoting Huggiesdiapers and Duncan Hines bakedgoods.

Ms. McDonald noted that shenever pushes her children towardstardom, even though some parents,captivated with the halo of sec-ond-hand fame, try to do so.

"I can tell when a kid has beencoached," the said. "I've seen little4-year-old girls in mascara, blush andfunky earrings saying, 'Mom, mystomach hum.' while their mothersays, 'Not now.' But they have towant to do it. If they're forced to,they're not going to make it."

eliminate the AFDC Emergency As-sistance hotel/motel placements overa three-year period through the de-velopment and operation of localtransitional housing projects.

This was accomplished in largepart due to the establishment of acounty homeless shelter. In March of1988, the county's Board of SocialServices helped the Volunteers ofAmerica set up the homeless sheltercalled Agape House, from the Greekterm for "unconditional l o v e . "Located in Somerville, the shelterserved 63 families — 201 people —during 1990.

"Somerset County was awarded itsshare of the money because of itsforward thinking in establishingAgape House," said FreeholderMichael Pappas, chairman of thecounty board of social services.

In February 1991, the county'sHuman Services Division solicitedproposals from service providers tobe eligible for the funds. Thesemonies would be used toward thedevelopment and operation of locallybased homeless resources to servethose individuals receiving AFDCEmergency Assistance services.

Through an expansion of the af-

fordable housing component of Cath-olic Charities" Family FinancialStabilization Program, clients willmaintain their stability In permanenthousing. This will be accomplishedby providing rental subsidies in con-junction with intensive financial andcase management services.

An additional 12 cases will benefitfrom the funding, representing ap-proximately SO individuals, including10 AFDC families and six homelessindividuals.

The program's success will bemonitored to make sure stated goalsare being met. Monthly statisticalreports will monitor the hours ofdirect service and types of servicesrendered to the client. The secondmeasure of effectiveness will be tostabilize 60 to 70 percent of theclients with whom the project con-tracts. Stabilization in permanenthousing will be achieved if at the endof the program those clients who havereceived rental subsidy are suc-cessfully paying their basic expenses,with subsidy, in a regular and timelymanner.

"The county Board of SocialServices has been utilizing theservices offered through Catholic

Charities' Financial Stabilization Pro-gram since its inception in July1984," Pappas said. "Through ourexperience, we know the monies willbe put to good use."

County honorssocial workers

Two employees of the SomersetCounty Board of Social Services havebeen commended this year for theirquick responses to medical emerg-encies that occurred while they wereon duty.

Robert Carman, of Manville, andFrank Piro, of Pine Beach, are em-ployed as social service personnel forthe transportation area of the Board ofSocial Services.

"Mr. Carman and Mr. Piroshowed initiative and quick-thinin contacting the proper authoritifor seriously ill clients," said Fnholder Michael Pappas, county socis1

services chairman. "We are proud Ihave them, and others like them, ipart of our staff."

Both employees received a plafor their heroic acts. Althoughwas the first time social serviiemployees have been formally rc-jcognized, officials emphasizethis was not the first time employhave reacted similarly in emergency!situations.

Mr. Piro has been with the Some-1rset County Board of Social Servicsince January 1990. Mr. Carmabegan his employment with the coun-ty in March 1977.

TRENTON — The state Divisionof Highway Traffic Safety urges driv-ers to exercise extra caution whiletraveling over the upcoming Mem-orial holiday weekend.

According to the division's directorJames A. Arena, 12 people werekilled in motor vehicle accidentsduring the 1990 Memorial holidayweekend.

"Whether you are driving a shortor long distance over the holidayweekend, think about the safety ofeveryone in your vehicle, and thesafety of pedestrians, cyclists andother motorists," Mr. Arena said."Simple steps, such as obeying speedlimits, driving sober, buckling yourseat belt and being aware of condi-tions around you can save your lifeand the lives of others."

During the holiday, there will beincreased police activities. The Mem-orial holiday weekend begins 6 p.m.Friday, May 24 and extends to mid-night Monday, May 27.

State police and local police de-partments will conduct sobriety*checkpoints at various locationsthroughout the state. Travelers can'expect the strict enforcement of speed-limits and other motor vehicle laws. '

Funds for the stepped-up enforce-ment activities come from the Na-tional Highway Traffic Safety Ad-ministration, federal Department ofTransportation and are administeredby the state Division of Highway,Safety.

Accident statistics bear out the factthat holidays are traditionally a timewhen the number of drunken drivingrelated accidents and resulting fatal-ities climb.

" W h e n a t t end ing h o l i d a yget-togethers, choose one person inthe group to stay sober so he or shecan drive home. This allows every-one to have a good time and, mostimportant of all, helps ensure a safetrip home for everyone," Mr. Arenasaid.

EDITORIAL

Why shouldwe subsidizestupidity?

People are always willing to outlaw anythingthey, personally, don't like but never anythingthey do like, regardless of the benefits or harmthat may be done.

"Gun laws don't work," they tell us — totallyignoring the fact that countries with effectivenational gun controls have fewer firearmhomicides each year than most mid-sized U.S.cities. Canada, Great Britain — most Europeancountries, for that matter — Japan ... all havefound gun control works.

"Motorcycle helmet laws won't work," theytold us — before those laws went into effect,cutting motorcycle-caused head injuries dramati-cally.

The same people told us seat belt laws won'twork — but the percentage of people using themclimbs every year. And would have climbedeven faster if proposed legislation had allowedpolice to ticket people for not wearing seatbelts.

Now they are telling us the bill that passed thestate Assembly last week requiring bicycle ridersto wear helmets is silly.

Why's that?"Because," they say, "people should be

allowed to live their lives the way they want."We agree — but feel their right to do so stops

when their behavior begins to affect us.If they would ride in their own driveways, or if

they would sign a statement saying they will payfor any injuries they or their children suffer as aresult of their stupidity, we would have noobjections.

But, if someone is going to use public roadsfor pleasure, and if they are going to expect theinsurance companies whose coverage they sharewith the rest of us to pay for their injuries, theyshould be expected to take all due precautions toprotect themselves.

Their second line of defense is that "theselaws are unenforceable."

Perhaps so. But when has that ever stoppedsociety from banning behavior it considers to beagainst its best interests? By that reasoning,speeding should not be against the law — or arewe halucinating when we're doing 55 on Inter-state 78 and all those cars seem to be passing us?

Neither, for that matter, should prostitution,drug use, smoking in restaurants nor any of themyriad other behaviors prohibited by lawshonored more in the breach than the observance.

But, as a matter of fact, this law is moreenforceable than those against activities — druguse comes to mind — that can be enjoyedindoors out of sight of the police. If someone isspotted riding without a helmet, the policemancan stop him, secure the bike to a fence, mailboxor other immovable object with a good, stoutchain, issue » numbered ticket and let him go onhis way on foot. No need, then, to be carrying awallet or photo ID or any other identification.

Once a day, a city truck can go around andpick up the bikes and take them to storage untilthe fine is paid.

Alternatively, they or their parents can come tothe court to pay the fine — plus a depositcovering the cost of the chain and show proof ofhaving bought a helmet — and receive anumbered key corresponding to the one on thebike M) they tan retrieve it themselves.

No muss, no fuss.

ATHTUPFD\fcKATE

I HAVE To SAY

To what degree should we taxpayerssubsidize the building trades? Beyondthat, should taxes be used to spawn moresprawl?

Such questions seem absent in thedebate over the value of public worksprojects. Right now these questions needto be asked by Gov. Florio as he decideshow to proceed with a planned floodcontrol project along the Passaic River.

The ideal is to build a 40-foot-diametertunnel to funnel floodwatens from theupper Passaic River valley for 14 milesdownstream to Newark at a cost of nearly$2 billion. Untold more dollars will alsobe required to maintain this system as itages.

To gain sonie perspective on hiMSj muchof on investment this is, between federal,state, county and municipal dollars, weNew Jerseyans have invested just half thatmuch in all the open space we've acquiredand developed for recreational purposes inthe last 30 years!

What makes sense is not to pour moreconcrete and leave folks behind to live inpart-time rivers, which will get flooded inonly very big storms, but slowly andsurely to relocate flood victims per-manently to higher ground.

What's more, stormwater volume andtreatment controls should be incorporatedalong drainageways in the upper Passaic

watershed to keep water on and in theground. The current solution of gettingwater off the land as soon as we can spellsdirty water, floods and droughts.

That's because speeding water on itsway only creates floods downstream.Worse yet, the quick runoff prohibitsrainfall from soaking into the ground,where it's needed as underground water,later seeping slowly out of the ground intostreams to keep waterways running in dryweather.

Thus w e ' v e d e v e l o p e d afeast-or-fain me aquatic syndrome: It'seither too wet or too dry. Th i sflood-drought situation renders brooksand streams impotent; they no longercontain a diverse population of, hivingthings, so cannot serve a* Hvin£fl9|jutiontreatment facilities.

Floods are problems only when peopleget in the way. Flood control, then,should be a way of getting people out ofthe way of high water. It's the only thingthat makes long-term economic and en-vironmental sense.

Our penchant for trying to live as closeto water as we can merely invites disaster,be it along the ocean or riven. Sooner orlater the protective works of man arebreached, and untold human sufferingresults.

All too often we approach planning fordisasters on a piecemeal basis. We've

been through the exercise with the Dela-ware River Tocks Island dam project,where it became clear after carefulanalysis that structures to hold back waterweren't economically feasible in the longrun.

The trouble is that it takes the financialresources of government agencies toanalyze such projects properly, both proand con. That was the beauty of theone-time President's Council on En-vironmental Quality — it could do thatkind of work, so that the construc-tion-oriented U.S. Army Corps of Engi-neers had a counterbalance.

Right now there's no one to scrutinizeplans of government agencies whichsjayiufacture such projects. Labor andfigfstruction interest profit, but not alwaystaxpayers or the environment!

I'm not saying there aren't lots of goodpublic works projects that can provideconstruction employment. There are morethan enough needed road and bridgerepairs, railroads to fix and even tunnelsto build. But each should be evaluated tosee if it will do what it's supposed to do.both environmentally and in strict dollarterms, with the evaluation done by anagency that doesn't have a stake in theoutcome.

Our schools needa bottom line

The reason education In our country isfailing miserably i» that we ate a societythai no longer has a bottom line.

Kids learn they can do pretty muchwhat they want with little or no conse-quences. Threats of punishment are seenas just threat* largely because teachersdon't have the authority, and ad-ministrators and backbone, to consistentlyuphold consequences for breaking schoolrules.

Another chance, another chance, iswhat we usually see and when a teachertries lo assert some authority belligerencefrom student* and little backing fromadministration results

I believe the mentality of the ACLU Isdie root came of this horrific problem thatis destroying our nocHty. Blind allegianceto perpetuate individual righu hat ruultadhi • society that OTMM hedoaJitlcmoMMi doing whatever » t y can |M•wtywMi,

Our Khottli arc teaching kldi to Ignonall tht rules they can, and eventually wUIbiuk the tarter locfeta! ndH. Mottpeople In America drive over the speed

limit if they can get away with it withoutpunishment.

That's the mentality of America and it'skilling people and destroying our moralfiber.

Pressure to not ovcrpunish students isapplied to administrators by their super-iors and by parents. I have seen parentsbecome heroes in their kids' eyes whenthey come to school and tell off a teacheror administrator.

Extreme individual rights, and the legalproceedings that often result, create havocfor administrators. They become the focalpoint of pressure to allow students tobreak rules, i believe the answer toeducation problems are not — as somebelieve — financial. If you can't get kidsto pay attention, it doesn't matter howmuch money you spend — it's beingthrown away.

I don't hold to the idea that we shouldmake school more interesting andkids willrespond. This hasn't worked. I see theanswer in two major changes.

The first is political. We must changeour legal system —- yes, the Constitution— so that individual rights are not ex*tended so far that it strangles educators'abilities to control students. I feel com-panies like Axlerod, Wheaton andGrazclle. which encourage legal action atthe drop of a hat, should be tarred andfeathered and put out of business

Secondly, we need administrator! whohave die backbone to consistently followdiscipline codes and their consequences.The district I teach in initiated a disciplinecode last yew that gives students warningafter warning before anything real is done.We need to go the opposite way and createwhat It missing in our schools — a bottomline.

Police officersdeserve respectTo Use editor:

In observance of National Police Week(May 19-25) let us honor those officerswho haven't made the front pages of the

n lately. It is unfortunate thatdue to the actions of a few. all must sufferthe consequences of the bad publicity wehave been hearing about recently.

I cannot imagine what life would be likewithout the police. I know you're thinking"no more tickets." but if you got theticket it's because you broke the law. alaw which he did not nuke but would beremiss in his job if he did not enforce It

I think of the police in a different light,The officer who shows up first when youcall for a first aid squad or fire companyand maybe saves your life before anyoneelse f eu there. The officer/detective whoInvestigates your burglary, theft, stolenvehicle, missing child or domesticviolence. Who do you call when someoneis assaulted, raped or murdered? So if wedidn't have the police, who would youcall?

These men tad women a n out thereevery hour of every day protectHu ourlives. Amid ill feadmilry and probablyhaving die wont Job to the world, I trulybelieve there are mote who Matty want to"make a difference" and t trn sun theywould have a better chance of achievingthat goal if we would all help.

They're our friends, not our enemies,and they deserveour respect. They havemine, how about yonrst

THE STATE WE'RE IN /David F. Moore

Tunnel leads to environmental setback

Mostlygood newsabounds

Except for Mike Kish losing the elec-tion last week, the news was mostly goodin the Kingston area. Mike and his teamconquered Kingston, which voted heavilyin his favor. Sadly, we don't have enoughvotes to carry an entire township.

Mr. Kish was the only candidate tocanvass door-to-door in Kingston. Thelast candidate to do that, in my 18-yearmemory, was Mike Pappas. What's withthese guys named Mike? Mike Kish alsoattended the Kingston Fire Company'sPancake Breakfast and the big dance a fewmonths back, in order to meet and talk toas many of the people in our communityas possible.

It's a shame he lost to incumbents whoapparently don't give a damn about ourlittle village.

Happily, though, our little town haspeople like Charlie Petrillo. Charlie willalways be the Mayor of Kingston, nomatter what goes on, or doesn't, in thehallowed halls of DeMott Lane. He's beenMr. Involvement, whether it's the Lion'sClub (which has honored him with moreplaques than he's got room to display), or .die Sewerage Authority, on which he'sserved since God invented sewers.

Last week, about 125 of his closestfriends met to roast him at Somerset'sQuality Inn. Based upon some of thethings they said (all in jest, of course), I'dhope that they never had to face Charlie >on the State Youth Correctional Board — ,another of his many civic activities.

The evening had a serious purpose,besides honoring one of Kingston's finest ,'scions. The event raised $1,000 for theDeborah Hospital Foundation in Brown'sMills, New lersey. Charlie and his friendsJohn Cariano and Vito Mistretta are ,traveling to Deborah on Wednesday topresent their check.

Let me echo my congratulations toCharlie, and his lovely wife (our re-tired-Postmaster). Betty, for a life full of „loving and giving.

While Kingston was basking in the ,accolades brought upon one of its nativesons, South Brunswick was delirious over Iits selection as a Blue Ribboh School bythe United States Department of Educa-tion. The school was singled out for itsexcellent history and performing arts pro- tgrains. •

Within days of the announcement, how- „ever, the district was faced with aninteresting dilemma.

One of the teachers who probablyhelped (in no small way) to raise SBHS upto public esteem was given his pink slip. ^In response to hi* firing, (or RIF —reduction in force — as it is known ineducational circles), a number of studentstook their grievance to the streets, de- ,.minding his renewal. To no one's Mir- iprise, the s c h o o l ' s response wassuspension of the students involved in thewalkout.

The district learned an importantlesson. Don't hold your breath waiting lorthe other shoe to drop. The students , ,learned that protest can be effectivelystifled by authority.

At least, with all this learning going on. ,,one can say there1* an education to begained in South Brunswick Township.

Thestudents are all members of theschool's larger bands and are chosenby invitation to join the select band.

Band director Fred Oltarzewskisaid, "part of our responsibility hereis to be active in the communi-ty ... and to give back to them whenwe can." The students will alreadybe out of school by June 30, but willbe volunteering their preparation andperformance time.

Mr. Oltarzewski and assistant banddirector Dixie Presson will be work-ing with the students on instrumenta-tion to make the music even moreappropriate for the occasion. Amonginarches and other songs, the bandwill be playing the "Star-SpangledBanner." It is one of the first songsthe band learns at the beginning of

each year."We take that song seriously," the

band director explained, "becausewe want it to sound well to reflectwell on the group and the oc-casions."

Because the group will be playingat the dedication and rally, they willbe able to show their versatility andadaptability — one of the reasons the

stage band is often called on whenexperienced players are needed.*

iThe students, both male and

female, from 10th to 12th g$de,"look forward to any opportunity toperform. They enjoy playing,andbring that enthusaism to their musicwhenever they a p p e a r , " Mr.Oltarzewski said. !

The Franklin High boys' tennis; team had two golden opportunities to

advance to the Central Jersey Group{B-Kaifiaab but In both case* the

', Watrion came up one game short.• Third-ieeded South Brunswick! showed poise and determination to

outlast No. 6 Franklin in a pair ofthree-set singles duels. The host Vik-ings needed both comeback wins tonotch a 3-2 victory last week to moveon in the sectional tournament.

. ! "This was a well-played match by; both teams but a very tough lots for<)»," Franklin coach Sandy Sanchez' said. "Today's loss was just a matteri of mental toughness and lack of_ experience. I'm disappointed, but we• never gave up."•. The match was ultimately decided! by the first singles battle between

Franklin senior Gary Chin and South| Brunswick's Marc Rubenstein. Chin• look the first set, 3-6, but Rubenstein' came back with a 6-3 win of his own|o knot the match.

Chin led 5-4 in the decisive set andwas serving for the match, Rubcat-tein broke Chin's serve to even the setand then swept the next two games toclinch the victory for the Vikings.

"Gary continued to play ag-gressively but Marc outlasted him bycontinuing to keep the ball in play,"Sanchez said. "He broke Gary'sserve to win the match."

Franklin's other near-miss came atthird singlet, where junior Ray Tsesplit sets with John Lai before takinga commanding lead in the third. Laiwon the opening frame, 6-1, but Tseroared back with a 2-6 win in thesecond.

Tse held a 5-2 edge in the final setbut could not slam the door on Lai.who won Five straight games to notcha 7-3 victory.

Sweet revengeFranklin track teams defend county crowns

By Rudy Brand!Sports Editor

Just as the Franklin High girls werefinishing second in the Skyland Con-ference 4x400 relay two weeks ago,Warrior boys' coach Jim MacLuskielooked at Bridgewater West athleticdirector Carl Weigner and told him toenjoy his club's victory because itwould never happen again.

Earlier this spring, MacLuskiecould be seen mulling around BrooksField in Somerville with an angryscowl after his boys' team had beendefeated and unseated by West byjust two points at the county relays.

In last Thursday's Somerset Coun-ty Meet at Brooks Field, both Warriorteams effectively settled their scoreswith the Golden Falcons and suc-cessfully defended the titles theycaptured last spring. It was the girls'second title ever and the boys' thirdstraight and eighth in the last 11years.

While the girls stormed to ameet-record performance in the4x400 and ran roughshod over West,the boys used depth to score points innearly every event and defeated theGolden Falcons soundly.

Franklin's girls tallied 106 points,well in front of Hillsborough (68) andWest (67). The Warrior boys scored99 points, trailed by West (78) andRidge (64).

The best Warrior performance ofthe day undoubtedly came in the4x400, where Joycelyn Harris, AnneMarie Morgan, Andrea Pullings andTammie MacLuskie f lew to ameet-record time of 4:00 flat, break-ing a county standard set by a Frank-lin quartet back in 1984.

At the Skyland competit ion,Weigner, the meet director, wouldnot allow Harris to run because of amistake on the entry form. AlthoughHarris was still eligible for one event,Weigner would not allow it becauseof the written error.

While coach MacLuskie was grin-ning from ear to ear as the girls rolledto a 14-second victory, his daughterTammie was running the anchor inpursuit of a record.

"We were going after the record,"Tammie MacLuskie said. "We wererolling after the fust two legs and Iknew we had a chance for the re-cord."

MacLuskie responded with anoutstading anchor leg (58.6), after

she had already participated andscored in three other events.

"What you're seeing here is thecumulative effect of 2'/2 years oftraining without significant injury,"coach MacLuskie said. "She ran a58.6 and it was her third quar-ter-mile) of the day."

While MacLuskie took first in boththe long jump (17 fcet-0 inches) and400 (59.2), she was a bit disgruntledwith her second-place effort in the400 intermediates (1:04.8).

"I made so many mistakes itwasn't even funny," she said. "Istuttered to the first hurdle and I triedto recover. Then I hit every hurdleafter that. My legs were tired fromthe 400."

Still, MacLuskie accounted for 38points, tops in the meet. Her team-mates were no slouches, either.

Harris posted a sprint double topick up a quick 20 individual points.She won the 100 (12.5) and 200(26.1) without too much difficulty.

"She is going to be tough in thestate meet, too," coach MacLuskiepredicted. "She's getting strongerbecause of all of the racing andworkouts we're putting her through.''

Laurinda Harper contributed 18points behind a pair of second-placefinishes in the long jump (15-7-Vi) andhigh jump (5-2). Harper also tookfifth in the 400 intermediates(1:12.9).

Other point-scorers for the Warriorgirls were Morgan in the 200 (fourth,26.9) and 400 (second, 1:00.9); Pull-ings in the 800 (fourth, 2:26.1) and1600 (sixth, 5:46.3); and Marilyn

The Franklin boys, meanwhile,won in a very unusual manner. De-spite taking gold in just one event, theWarriors retained their title easily.

Kevin Lyles was impressive in the400, winning by over two seconds in48.2 to break a nine-year old recordheld by Bridgewater East's LarryMajeski. Aside from Lyles' win,t h o u g h . Frankl in had tonickel-and-dime its way to the crownwhile withstanding a quadruple-goldbarrage by West star Jay Hobbs.

While Hobbs was winning the 100,200, long jump and high jump,Franklin was able to match him withits depth.

Lyles was second in both the 100(10.9) and 200 (21.7) while TonyLundy placed third in both events(11.2,22.8).

Lundy also scored a third place inthe high jump (6-0) and was fourth inthe long jump (20-11).

"He had the kind of day a lot ofkids that spend four years in highschool track and field would love tohave ," MacLuskie said of hissophomore. "But if you ask him ifhe's satisfied, he'd say no. That's themark of a great athlete and the type ofkid 1 want to have around."

Franklin demoralized the GoldenFalcons by match ing thempoint-for-point in the throwingevents, which was totally unex-pected. Louis Solomon took third inthe shot put and teammate DaveSanders was right behind in fourthwith an identical throw of 45-1 Wi.

Other Warrior point-scorers were:Jamal Wade in the 100 (sixth, 12.0)and 400 (sixth, 53.2); David Stewartin the 800 (second, 2:02.4); GregGamble in the 100 hurdles (third,15.5); Chris Jones in the 100 hurdles(sixth, 16.4); and Corey Rogers in the400 intermediates (second, 58.1).

They were flying like the wind.The Franklin High girls' 4x400

relay team became the season'sCutest quartet in New Jersey Mondayafternoon at the East Coast Relays inMorristown. Joycelyn Harris, AnneMarie Morgan, Andrea Pulllngsand Tammie MacLuskie broke thefour-minute barrier with plenty tospare, rolling to a victory in 3:57.5.

Franklin's unit topped Monmouthfor the first time this year, setting upan interesting duel at Saturday'sCroup III meet in East Brunswick.Harris (59.9 split), Morgan (59,3),PuUings (59.9) and MacLuskie (58.1)all sizzled to sub-one-minute quartersin a picture-perfect performance.

The girls' 4x200 unit of Morgan,Laurlnda Harper , Harris andMacLuskie teamed for a second-placefinish in 1:45.25, while the samefoursome took fourth in the 4x100 in50.04.

The Warrior boys' sprint relayteams placed second behind Wee-quahic in both the 4x100 and 4x200.

Tony Lundy, Jeff Brown, JamalWade and Kevin Lyles ran the 4x 100in 43.9 while Greg Gamble, Lundy,Brown and Lyles finished the 4x200in a time of 1:32.38.

P e t e H i g g l n s won anotherballgame for the Franklin Highbaseball team last week.

For the second time this season, thejunior center fielder delivered' triegame-winning hit. This time, it Wasan eighth-inning bunt single thatscored Tony Mazzariello for a 5-4victory over Hackettstown. '.';

Mazzariello pitched the final thfeeinnings to pick up his second wih ofthe spring. Higgins added a triple andRodney Wllkerson and Mike Gluloeach belted doubles to highlight' theWarriors' 11-hit attack. Gillio was2-fnr-1 while Higgins totalled'twoRBI. Ken Buckner and Wilkersoneach batted in a run for the winners.

The Warriors (5-12) were set;toplay at Warren Hills Wednesayj andcomplete their campaign at homeagainst Bridgewater West Thursday.

For the first time in a few weeks,the Franklin softball squad won t>nthe same day as the baseball team.The Lady Warriors scored early andoften to put away Hackettstown, 94.

Sophomore pitcher Nikki Bushwent the distance and was impressivein earning her fifth victory. Sheallowed just one hit to Jen Dewaldwhile striking out seven and walkjngnone.

own. The junior tandem of ManShuuke and Chris Gallo fell for onlythe second time this spring, losing toJeremy Fishelberg and Greg Sandierin straight sets, 6-3, 6-4.

"They never really played theirgame," Sanchez said. "South Bruns-wick had forcing serves and strongoverheads. Our strength lies in rally-ing but they effectively controlled uswith their serves."

Both Warrior wins came out of theNo. 2 slots. In singles, junior MarkHall bested Josh Rubin, 6-3, 6-4,while the doubles team of BrianLevine and Jared Swart topped AshokSundai and Jordan Reisner, 6-2, 6-3.

Hall continued his fine play byusing p a t i e n c e and s teadygroundstrokes. He controlled hismatch from the base l ine andcapitalized on short balls to effective-ly close out the points.

Levine and Swart, a fairly newcombination, enjoyed a relativelyeasy win. Swart has shown steadyimprovement since being called upfrom the jayvee team two weeks ago.

In regular season play, the War-riors dropped a pair of tough Skyland

Conference decisions to fall to 9-9 forthe season. ,

Last Friday, Montgomery reverseda prior decision by edging Franklin,3-2. ,

Sanchez shuffled her lineup a bit,moving Shutske to third singles,where he defeated Travis Rkkardseasily, 6-1, 6-2.

Franklin's other win came at sec-ond singles, where Hall came frombehind to beat Ramine Yazhari, Z-6,7-5,6-1.

The Warriors came within inchesof knocking off unbeaten giantBridgewater West Monday but fell,3-2. Franklin actually outscoiedWest, 7-6, m sets, Ixit could not winany of the three-set affairs.

While Hall topped Dave Bock,6-3. 7-5 and Shutske defeated MikeCbiou. 6-2. 6-3. the Warriors, w^eoutlasted in three heartbreakingmatches in which they took the- rjj»tset. J|

„•• Heidi Nestvoge l and Carole; qlantzow certainly made the most of,'fWhat they had this sesaon.','•; The two Rutgers Prep girls' spring.coaches both endured unusually lowturnouts yet managed to work

,_|hrough the campaign with very lim-ited rosters. Nestvogel had just 11

.jtirls try out for her Softball squad'j.whlle Glantzow's girls' lacrosse team'. 'consisted of 13 players.' Nevertheless, Nestvogel's club

^posted an 8-7 mark while Glantzow'sbunch finished at 5-5-1.

' _"' "The kids are feeling really goodabout what we did," said Nestvogel,'whose club won five more games

'jpttian in 1990. "We surpassed allExpectations and they showed me alot this year. They had great spirit andworked very hard."

The Lady Argonauts were led by a• 'pair of seniors, second baseman/left'•fielder Naledi Khabo, who "held^"everything together," and pitcher'•̂ 'Connie Conaway, who led Prep in

Virtually every offensive category.• 'Eonaway batted over .500 and show-

•66 great improvement on the mound.^''i "She threw every game but one for''Us and we really needed that out of' 'Her," Nestvogel said. "She's a

tremendous fielding pitcher and shereally shuts down the middle."

"• ' Although Prep was eliminated in'die opeinng round of the Prep B^Tournament, Nestvogel felt the

season was a big success. The small•' "roster enabled a lot of underclassmen

to get valuable playing time which• will onlyhelp in the years to come.

Key returnees for next year includesophomore shortstop Cherie Gailini,

'center fielder Reena Patel, second"baseman Lynne Schwartz, first

baseman Amy Holliday and freshman'catcher Meredith Maxwell.

Nestvogel is also looking forwardto the healthy return of sophomorefirst baseman Andrea McLaughlin, a

' steady fielder with a big bat. Holliday'will move to the mound next spring.

"Our seventh and eighth grade'team went 8-3 and we have a nice'luxury of (assistant coach) MaryKlinger in that program," Nestvogelsaid. "I feel that we should be in

„ good contention for a state title in theincxt few years.".,- Glantzow is hoping her squad can- get back to the big game again next

spring, the Lady Argos went on a latespurt to advance to the title gamedespite a losing record.

This year, Prep started quickly andfaded late to finish right at .500.Glantzow felt her depleted roster wasa major problem.

"We only had 13 girls and since 12play on the field at a time it was reallyhard on everybody," she said."There was no bench and we evenplayed a game one person short. Ifsomeone made a mistake I couldn'teven take them out to talk becausethere wa< no one eUe to put in You

couldn't stop and analyze what theydid wrong."

One thing Prep did right was scoregoals, and the good news forGlantzow is that those that weredenting the net will all return nextyear. In fact, the Lady Argonautswon't lose any key players.

Junior Gracie Alcid led the teamwith 36 goals, with classmates An-drea Grumet (24) and Nicole Weitz(21) right behind. Sophomore BethArsenault contributed 17 goals.

Defensively, junior Ida Fiumfred-do led in check-steals with 53. fol-

lowed by Grumet (37), Alcid (30)and freshman Jamie Schumer (24).Cory Metzger was tops in inter-ceptions (22), trailed by Fiumfreddo(14) and Schumer (9). Sophomoregoalkeeper Gabby DeSantis stopped126 shots.

"We actually had a better recordthan last year even though it feels likethe season wasn't as successful,"said Glantzow, who is looking for-ward to having a senior-dominatedteam in 1992. "I'd like to get a littlemore than 13 players out next year."
