Bruce! Fans ditch work to get Springsteen concert tickets<br />
By MARY RUDLOFF<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
ATLANTIC CITY - Bruce! Bruce!<br />
Bruce! Bruce!<br />
Unless you're totally out <strong>of</strong> touch with<br />
the local music scene, you won't even have<br />
to ask "Bruce who?"<br />
Frenzy over Bruce Springsteen's first<br />
local concert reached a fevered pitch<br />
Saturday morning, when more than 13,000<br />
concert tickets for his March 7 appearance<br />
went on sale ... and sold out less than 15<br />
minutes later.<br />
The long line <strong>of</strong> Bruce fans waiting for<br />
the ticket window to open far exceeded the<br />

Fairness<br />
In Taxes:<br />
Take hard<br />
look at<br />
spending<br />
By CHRISTOPHER SOUTH<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
OCEAN CITY - Community<br />
watchdog group, Fairness In<br />
Taxes, is recommending the city<br />
take another look at the Local<br />
Government Budget Review<br />
(LGBR) completed in October<br />
2000 and implement some <strong>of</strong> the<br />
recommendations - particularly<br />
in the area <strong>of</strong> health care.<br />
At the last meeting <strong>of</strong> Fairness<br />
In Taxes, held Jan. 10 in the<br />
Hedley Room <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
Public Library, members said<br />
the LGBR recommended many<br />
changes; however, they feel any<br />
changes made by the administration<br />
have been small and<br />
unannounced.<br />
Saying their primary focus,<br />
now, would be to address burgeoning<br />
health care costs borne<br />
by the city, Fairness In Taxes<br />
sent a letter, dated Nov. 6, 2002<br />
to Mayor Henry "Bud" Knight<br />
asking him to consider the<br />
LGBR recommendations in<br />
preparing the 2003 municipal<br />
budget.<br />
The recommendations in the<br />
LGBR for saving on health care<br />
costs include:<br />
*eliminating a provision found<br />
in bargaining unit contracts<br />
under which the city provides<br />
insurance to retired police <strong>of</strong>ficers<br />
who have not qualified for<br />
Medicare, potentially saving<br />
$50,000;<br />
^enforce a required 20-hourminimum<br />
work week for<br />
employees who receive benefits,<br />
potentially saving $40,050;<br />
*switching to the State Health<br />
Benefits Plan (SHBP), potentially<br />
saving $341,000;<br />
^implementing prescription<br />
plan changes ($35,900); and<br />
renegotiate the 50 percent copay<br />
by city employees for their<br />
dental plan ($77,300).<br />
The Nov. 6 letter was followed<br />
by a resolution, Dec. 6, in which<br />
Fairness In Taxes asked the<br />
mayor and <strong>City</strong> Council to<br />

show, with the crowd estimated at approximately<br />
1,000 people. The first were<br />
reported to have been in line at least seven<br />
hours before the ticket window opened,<br />
but the line grew rapidly, from less than 50<br />
to a crowd stretching out to reach<br />
Tropicana casino several blocks away,<br />
from 8 a.m. on.<br />
Saturday morning was the culmination<br />
<strong>of</strong> two days <strong>of</strong> wristband distribution. The<br />
numbered wristbands did not ensure the<br />
chance to purchase tickets, but guaranteed<br />
a place in line when the ticket sales broke<br />
at 10 a.m. Saturday morning.<br />
Dreams <strong>of</strong> seeing "The Boss" were<br />
quickly shattered for most <strong>of</strong> the cooperative<br />
mob, however, when, at approximate-<br />
ly 9:15 a,m., 9-year old William Wright <strong>of</strong><br />
Margate drew number 2080 from a fishbowl.<br />
The ticket line immediately started<br />
forming, in numerical order based on the<br />
wristbands, behind the lucky fan wearing<br />
that number bracelet.<br />
At the rate tickets would be sold, many<br />
bracelet wearers immediately bolted from<br />
the scene, heading for the nearest phone,<br />
computer or Ticketmaster outlet, knowing<br />
the tickets would be long gone before their<br />
bracelet number was ever reached.<br />
"Let's try Boscov's/' one Bruce fan said,<br />
bolting from line. "We'll never make it to<br />
the window before the tickets are gone<br />
here." .<br />
The fan was wearing a bracelet in the<br />
2600 range. Tickets sbld out shortly before<br />
number 2220 made the window.<br />
Boardwalk Hall <strong>of</strong>ficials said they were<br />
not surprised at how fast the tickets sold<br />
out. They said that, with an artist <strong>of</strong><br />
Springsteen's stature, a quick sellout is<br />
expected.<br />
"We think the whole thing went very<br />
well. The wristband system worked. It is a<br />
way to ensure the most fair way for fans to<br />
get tickets," explained Boardwalk Hall's<br />
Director <strong>of</strong> Marketing Valerie McGonigal.<br />
"The crowd in line was great. We would<br />
like to ensure everyone has chance to pur<br />

Solid 2003 locally<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
Home Bank<br />
president says<br />
real estate may<br />
flatten, tourism<br />
should be good<br />
By CHRISTOPHER SOUTH<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
SOMERS POINT - Flat interest<br />
rates, a stable stock market and a<br />
leveling <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> the local housing<br />
market were part <strong>of</strong> the economic<br />
predictions for 2003 made by<br />
Steven Brady, president <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> Home Bank.<br />
The kaynote speaker at the Jan.<br />
14 luncheon meeting <strong>of</strong> tHe<br />
Greater <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Chamber <strong>of</strong><br />
Commerce, Brady has been giving<br />
an economic forecast every<br />
January for the past 12 years.<br />
"Interest rates will remain flat<br />
for the first six months," he said,<br />
"and will increase slightly in the<br />
second half <strong>of</strong> the year."<br />
Brady said the stock market<br />
will be stable, and while corporate<br />
earnings will increase, so<br />
will spending.<br />
"Businesses will spend money<br />
again," Brady said.<br />
Brady told the audience <strong>of</strong><br />
chamber members there was a<br />
tremendous' amount <strong>of</strong> money<br />
spent on Y2K, and that spending<br />
follows a three-year cycle.<br />
Brady also predicted a slowdown<br />
on refinancing, while consumer<br />
spending would remain<br />
stable. "But that will be tested in<br />
2003," he added.<br />
Most significantly, Brady said<br />
the real estate market would flatten<br />
in 2003, because real estate<br />
prices were rising faster than<br />
income. Asked if that prediction<br />
would specifically apply to the<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> market, Brady said<br />
there would be different pockets<br />
that won't flatten, but there is an<br />
upper limit to what people can<br />
afford to pay for homes. Rising<br />
Christopher South/<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
Gary Holland <strong>of</strong> Campion-Dinshah Construction works on a new home in the 3300 block <strong>of</strong> Asbury Avenue. A<br />
booming real estate market has led to a thriving home construction business locally.<br />
interest rates would also contribute<br />
to a weakened real estate<br />
market.<br />
However, Brady said he<br />
expected there would be no real<br />
estate crash like in the late '80s<br />
and early '90s.<br />
Brady also said international<br />
activity, such as the looming war<br />
with Iraq, the nuclear threat in<br />
North Korea, terrorism and the<br />
global economy puts the econo-<br />

SOMERS POINT - Dr. Ira<br />
Trocki wants to renovate the Egg<br />
Harbor Yacht Club and Marina,<br />
on Bay AvenUe here, to make it a<br />
deep water marina.<br />
That should come to no surprise<br />
to the neighbors <strong>of</strong> the business,<br />

his intent. However, Bay<br />

will elect the candidate<br />
to be named to the freeholder<br />
board.<br />
At least three potential<br />
appointees have shown interest<br />
in the seat - one from <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
and two from Lower Township.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, which had a representative<br />
on the board for more<br />
than a century, lost its representative<br />
in the year 2000 general<br />
election. Since then, some <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> Republicans have expressed<br />
strong feelings about returning<br />
an <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> man or woman to<br />
the freeholder board, primarily,<br />
because they believe their level<br />
Avenue residents in the vicinity<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Yacht Club, formerly<br />
Mayer's Inn, recently received<br />
letters stating Trocki had filed an<br />
application to make his marina<br />
more accessible to larger boats.<br />
The application, to the<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Environmental<br />
Protection (DEP), was filed Dec.<br />
.31. Included in the application is<br />
dredging the marina.<br />
In July, the dredging <strong>of</strong> the<br />
marina was a hot topic for the<br />
<strong>of</strong> taxation deserves representation.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> pays about 26<br />
percent <strong>of</strong> the county's taxes.<br />
At the same time, Lower<br />
Township lost its representative<br />
with the resignation <strong>of</strong> Matthews,<br />
and some Lower Township<br />
Republicans believe Lower<br />
Township, being the largest<br />
municipality in Cape May<br />
County, deserves a representative<br />
on the freeholder board.<br />
Lower Township Mayor Larry<br />
Starner said, in a joint statement<br />
issued by Republicans on Lower<br />
Township Council, he considered<br />
running for the seat himself for<br />
that reason. Starner, along with<br />
local city council when then-<br />
Recreation Commission member<br />
Dennis Tapp, how a councilman,<br />
said Trocki's <strong>of</strong>fer to put the soil<br />
dredged directly onto the neighboring<br />
WJlliam Morrow beach<br />
was unacceptable. Council members<br />
also challenged the pumping<br />
<strong>of</strong> the untreated sand directly<br />
onto the city's small public<br />
beach. That <strong>of</strong>fer by Trocki,<br />
which was supported by Mayor<br />
John DiMaria but opposed by the<br />
Councilwoman Diane Chesna and<br />
Councilman Mike Beck have put<br />
their support behind fellow<br />
Councilman Arthur "Stig"<br />
Blomkvest for the freeholder<br />
seat.<br />
However, another Lower<br />
Township.resident, Ralph Bakley<br />
Sr., has expressed interest in the<br />
available freeholder seat. Bakley<br />
has been a longtime member <strong>of</strong><br />
the Lower Township Board <strong>of</strong><br />
Education.<br />
Meanwhile, <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
Republicans have thrown their<br />
support behind Steve Gillian -<br />
according to Frank McCall, the<br />
GOP's municipal leader in <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>. McCall said Gillian emerged<br />
as their candidate back on Dec.<br />
20, but they held <strong>of</strong>f making their<br />
choice public until Matthews'<br />
resignation was <strong>of</strong>ficial.<br />
Blomkvest said members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
county Republican organization<br />
have been discussing the matter<br />
for "a couple <strong>of</strong> months."<br />
Any candidate for the position<br />
will have had to have filed a letter<br />
<strong>of</strong> intent with the Regular<br />
Republican Organization on or<br />
before yesterday, Jan. 15. The<br />
municipal committees will caucus<br />
and vote between Jan'. 15 and<br />
the end <strong>of</strong> the month. The voting<br />
results from each municipality<br />
have to be submitted to the county<br />
Republican committee chair-<br />
( man by Jan. 31.<br />
By statute, the winner must<br />
pledge to run for reelection in the<br />
next general election, which is in<br />
November.<br />
Freeholder Leonard Desiderio<br />
was elected last November to<br />
serve out the final year <strong>of</strong> the<br />
unexpired term <strong>of</strong> Jeff Van Drew,<br />
who resigned from the board<br />
after being elected to the State<br />
Assembly. Desiderio, fellow<br />
Freeholder Gerald Thornton, and<br />
the appointed freeholder will run<br />
for threeTyear ' terms in<br />
November 2003.<br />
his marina in Somers Point<br />
Recreation Commission and <strong>City</strong><br />
Council, was withdrawn by<br />
Trocki in late July when the doctor<br />
cited the negative controversy<br />
surrounding the proposal.<br />
Morrow Beach and the Yacht<br />
Club are next to each other, separated<br />
only by Higbee Avenue<br />
Trocki has stated that, should<br />
his application be approved, the<br />
marina would maintain the same<br />
number <strong>of</strong> boat slips, but would<br />
be able to accommodate larger<br />
boats. The marina presently has<br />
trouble handling boats during<br />
low tides. A floating dock on<br />
Morrow Beach can be seen as a<br />
measure <strong>of</strong> the effects <strong>of</strong> the low<br />
tide, as at its lowest point, the<br />
floating dock is nearly on dry<br />
land.<br />
Neither neighbors nor council<br />
members appear to be rushing to<br />
support Trocki's application.<br />
Trocki'has not endeared himself<br />
to council since purchasing<br />
the former Mayer's Inn as well as<br />
the again-defunct Club Ice, formerly<br />
the much troubled<br />
Brownie's By The Bay and Club<br />
Impulse. After asking council to<br />
renew the liquor license, which<br />
Trocki's attorney had stated was<br />
going to be moved to the Yacht<br />
Club, Trocki opened Club Ice on<br />

Members particularly objected<br />

those working less than 20 hours<br />

this practice was unprecedented<br />

"The majority <strong>of</strong> taxpayers<br />

He turned to three <strong>of</strong> his buddies,<br />

third was supposed to be making deliveries.<br />
"But this is Bruce. This is 'The Boss.'<br />

negotiating labor contracts. The<br />
group said it was unfair for city<br />
employees, who will receive the<br />
health care package <strong>of</strong> the contract,<br />
to be negotiating that contract.<br />
"Right now, the department<br />
heads negotiate for the benefits<br />

Members said they did not have<br />
a problem with any <strong>of</strong> the department<br />
heads, or city business<br />
administrator Richard Deaney,<br />
who Smith said is "a good administrator."<br />
In addition, the group<br />

over, but unemployment was still running at six<br />
percent and consumer spending was low, with<br />
the notable exception <strong>of</strong> the housing market.<br />
"Real estate had a banner year. Home sales,<br />
home values saw appreciation," he said.<br />
Brady said the real estate market was doing<br />
well nationally, with markets like San Diego and<br />
Long Island seeing an 80 percent increase in<br />
home values.<br />
However, he said the nation has still not completely<br />
recovered from Sept. 11, 2001. The airline<br />
industry has not recovered from the blow it<br />
was dealt by the attacks, and many Americans<br />
lost jobs as a result <strong>of</strong> the events <strong>of</strong> Sept. 11.<br />
"Hundreds <strong>of</strong> millions <strong>of</strong> dollars were lost, and<br />
still haven't been, recovered," he said, "but we're<br />
a very resilient people, and our economy is very<br />
resilient, and we're doing very well."<br />
Brady said nationally there was an unprecedented<br />
amount <strong>of</strong> refinancing during the year.<br />
Locally, he said, the Borgata casino, which is<br />
expected to provide several thousand jobs, is<br />
almost complete; construction <strong>of</strong> two new<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong> malls and <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>-Longport<br />
Bridge were completed in 2002; and the local<br />
.real estate market was booming.<br />

Upper Township CEUT operating at financial loss<br />
Administrators, school board members'say changes needed in community education<br />
i By MARY RUDLOFF<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
UPPER TOWNSHIP - With the<br />
hiring <strong>of</strong> a new assistant principal<br />
at the Middle School, there<br />
are several issues regarding the<br />
community education (CEUT)<br />
program the board wants studied.<br />
<strong>On</strong>e <strong>of</strong> the most pressing problems,<br />
according to School<br />
Business Administrator Charles<br />
Muller, is that the program is<br />
running at a deficit for the school<br />
district.<br />
Many <strong>of</strong> the instructors working<br />
iii the program are paid on a<br />
percentage basis <strong>of</strong> the money<br />
brought in for their particular<br />
course, Muller said. The average<br />
percentage split between the<br />
instructor and school district is<br />
60-40. The posted hourly rate for<br />
CEUT instructors is $18.75 per<br />
hour, but Muller said during the<br />
past several years more instruc-<br />
tors have moved to the percentage<br />
split.<br />
<strong>On</strong>e key problem, Muller said,<br />
is the instructors <strong>of</strong> the most popular<br />
programs <strong>of</strong>fered are making<br />
large amounts <strong>of</strong> money while<br />
the district continues to lose<br />
money in the program.<br />
"In some programs, 60 percent<br />
can be $500. In the really popular<br />
programs, 60 percent can be<br />
$2,000," Muller said. "There<br />
needs to be a limit on the actual<br />
Bereavement support group<br />
helps people cope with loss<br />
By CHRISTOPHER SOUTH<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
OCEAN CITY - A bereavement support group<br />
started as an outreach ministry <strong>of</strong> St. Frances<br />
Cabrini Church is inviting people to participate in a<br />
10-week program starting Feb. 5.The group, which<br />
will meet on Wednesdays from 7 to 8:30 p.m., was<br />
started to help people come to terms with the loss<br />
<strong>of</strong> a family member or other loved one.<br />
"We have a bereavement ministry and one <strong>of</strong> its<br />
four components is the support group," said<br />
Vincent Trainer, a group facilitator.<br />
Trainer, who works with Dolly Brown and main<br />
facilitator Barbara Hansen, said the four components<br />
<strong>of</strong> the bereavement ministry are: liturgy, hospitality,<br />
outreach and support.<br />
Liturgy and hospitality, Trainer said, are performed<br />
at the time <strong>of</strong> the funeral. Outreach may<br />
take the form <strong>of</strong> sympathy cards, phone calls or<br />
personal visits. Support, he said, is at the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
spectrum when the person is trying to cope with the<br />
natural emotions <strong>of</strong> grief or loss.<br />
Started about a year ago, a support group conducted<br />
in the fall drew 10 to 12 participants.<br />
Trainer said the support group uses a text called<br />
"Understanding grief" that identifies normal<br />
occurrences that are experienced at the time <strong>of</strong><br />
loss.<br />
"It gives everybody hands on involvement - not<br />
just giving them a lot <strong>of</strong> fact or fiction," Trainer<br />
said.<br />
Trainer said although the bereavement support<br />
group is at St. Frances Cabrini Roman Catholic<br />
Church, the group is open to anyone.<br />
"We are not restricting it to members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
parish, or church, or denomination," he said.<br />
"Anyone is welcome." •<br />
. Trainer said the bereavement support group is<br />
not a means <strong>of</strong> proselytizing -just a way <strong>of</strong> showing<br />
caring to the community.<br />
The group meetings are held at the Holy Family<br />
House, 114 Atlantic Ave., in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>. The session<br />
will run from Feb. 5 until mid-April. Anyone wishing<br />
more information should call Vincent Trainer at<br />

Reward posters a mystery to<br />
police and Crime Stoppers<br />
There have been break-ins; police say<br />
neighbors can be the difference in arrests<br />
By CHRISTOPHER SOUTH<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
OCEAN CITY - Some signs<br />
being posted announced a $1,000<br />
reward allegedly for information<br />
pertaining to break-ins <strong>of</strong> private<br />
homes during the Christmas holiday,<br />
is not the work <strong>of</strong> Cape May<br />
County Crime Stoppers or the<br />
local'police.<br />
Bill Plenge, president <strong>of</strong> Crime<br />
Stoppers, said he didn't know<br />
anything about posters and<br />
$1,000 is a little generous for the<br />
Crime Stopper budget.<br />
"We don't just do that out <strong>of</strong><br />
hand," Plenge said. "A $1,000<br />
reward? That would be for a murder."<br />
The reward poster, which was<br />
spotted around the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
High School and in the 4th Street<br />
Wawa, reads: "S1000.00<br />
REWARD for information leading<br />
to the arrest and conviction <strong>of</strong><br />
the j criminals responsible for<br />
trespassing and vandalizing private<br />
homes in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>."<br />
The poster continues, "A number<br />
<strong>of</strong> homes in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> were<br />
vandalized over the Christmas<br />
holiday resulting in a significant<br />
loss <strong>of</strong> personal property as well<br />
as rendering the properties uninhabitable."<br />
Persons with information are<br />
asked to contact the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
Police Division, and told they will<br />
be given a "reward claim code,"<br />
which is how Crime Stoppers<br />
identifies reward recipients.<br />
However, Plenge said no one<br />
has contacted him to discuss<br />
<strong>of</strong>fering a reward.<br />
"I haven't talked to a soul," he<br />
said.<br />
Lt. William Wilent <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> Police Division was also<br />
unaware <strong>of</strong> any reward being<br />
<strong>of</strong>fered pertaining to break-ins or<br />
vandalism, and disputed the<br />
claims <strong>of</strong> "significant loss <strong>of</strong> personal<br />
property" and properties<br />
being rendered "uninhabitable",<br />
made in bold print on the reward<br />
posters.<br />

Wilent said in the past few<br />
months there were a.number <strong>of</strong><br />
houses broken into and some<br />
small items were reported missing,<br />
but there were no reports <strong>of</strong><br />
a place being uninhabitable.<br />
"We're not seeing that," Wilent<br />
said. "We have found some<br />
places where the water was<br />
turned <strong>of</strong>f and someone used the<br />
toilet, and maybe cigarette burns<br />
in the rug."<br />
Wilent said houses being broken<br />
into is not an uncommon<br />
occurrence in the winter, but it's<br />
becoming less frequent. These<br />
days, he said, people who own a<br />
second house at the shore are<br />
less likely to close it up and not<br />
use it all winter. In the past, summer<br />
homes may not have been<br />
heated and there were few<br />
amenities. Instead, they use it as<br />
a second home where they can<br />
get away to anytime during the<br />
year. So if anything out <strong>of</strong> the<br />
ordinary happens, they tend to<br />
find it quicker.<br />
Frank Zuch, a law publisher in<br />
Philadelphia, said both units in<br />
the duplex he shares on 3rd<br />
Street were broken into recently.<br />
In one case, the perpetrators<br />
broke in the front door and took a<br />
small television. Thieves later<br />
returned to the same unit and<br />
took the door <strong>of</strong>f its hinges - leaving<br />
it on the living room floor.<br />
The owner was. alerted by a $300<br />
heating bill.<br />
Zuch, who has owned his property<br />
for about a year and a half,<br />
said the thieves also kicked in his<br />
door and took a Sony CD player<br />
and went through his cabinets.<br />
Wilent said what is needed is<br />
for year around residents to<br />
remain alert for suspicious activity.<br />
<strong>On</strong> Saturday, Jan. 11, a neighbor<br />
in the 2400 block <strong>of</strong> Wesley<br />
Avenue did call police at around<br />
4:25. p.m. to report seeing two<br />
youths climbing in through the<br />
window <strong>of</strong> a neighbor's house.<br />
Upon investigation, Patrolman<br />
Daniel Dubbs found two 17-yearold<br />
males, one <strong>of</strong> the unit block <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> Avenue, and the other<br />
from the 5200 block <strong>of</strong> Asbury<br />
Avenue hiding in the house. Both<br />
were charged with burglary and<br />
released to parents. <strong>On</strong>e <strong>of</strong> the<br />
juveniles was also charged with<br />
possession <strong>of</strong> a controlled dangerous<br />
substance (CDS) and possession<br />
<strong>of</strong> CDS paraphernalia.<br />
Wilent credits the neighbor's<br />
call to police with the arrest <strong>of</strong><br />
the suspects.<br />
"That's what we really need,"<br />
he said.<br />
Wilent said neighbors should be<br />
on the lookout for unusual occurrences,<br />
lights on in homes where<br />
no one should be, people coming<br />
and going, unusual car traffic for<br />
that location. Anyone who<br />
observes anything unusual<br />
should call the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Police<br />
Division at 609-399-9111.<br />

amount <strong>of</strong> money paid."<br />
Muller did not specify the<br />
amount <strong>of</strong> money the district has<br />
spent in maintaining the CEUT<br />
program. He also stressed that,<br />
for instructors working on a percentage<br />
basis, every expense<br />
related to that course should be<br />
paid from the instructor's percentage.<br />
"The district should not reimburse<br />
a dime for those programs,"<br />
Muller said.<br />
Board members agreed the<br />
school board would need to clarify<br />
specific issues for newly hired<br />
assistant principal Vincent<br />
Palmieri to study.<br />
"These are all issues we need to<br />
clarify to the new administrator<br />
from the beginning," Board<br />
President Fran Newman said.<br />
Muller encouraged the board to<br />
make no decisions regarding<br />
changes in the program until<br />
Palmier! has had time to familiarize<br />
himself with the program.<br />
Palmieri will have overseeing the<br />
CEUT program as one <strong>of</strong> his<br />
duties. Formerly the program<br />
was run by Supervisor <strong>of</strong> Special<br />
•Projects Scott Read. Read<br />
resigned, effective Jan. 2, to<br />
become a vice principal in Little<br />
Egg Harbor Township district.<br />
"Right now the CEUT program<br />
is losing money. We need to make<br />
it clear to the assistant principal<br />
that we should not be taking a<br />
loss," board member Pat<br />
Forsstrom said. "Some people are<br />
making so much money in their<br />
programs. This shouldn't be happening<br />
while the district is losing<br />
money."<br />

Critics question why mayor didn't reappoint planner<br />
By HARY RUDLOFF<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> Gty Sentinel<br />
SOMERS POINT - Council<br />
members and residents questioned<br />
the mayor's decision to<br />
replace an eight-year planning<br />
board veteran.<br />
During the Jan. 3 reorganization<br />
meeting, appointments were<br />
made to city commissions and<br />
boards. Included in those<br />
appointments was the planning<br />
board. Missing from the planning<br />
board appointments, however,<br />
was eight-year member and<br />
board chairman Greg Sykora.<br />

Since the appointment.<br />
Republican leaders and local residents<br />
and business owners have<br />
questioned if what they call a<br />
purely political move was done<br />
with consideration for what is<br />
best for the city.<br />
At the council meeting on<br />
Thursday, Jan. 8, resident and<br />
businessman Corky Campbell<br />
questioned the mayor directly,<br />
asking his reasons for the change.<br />
"It is difficult to reconcile what<br />
we know with what happened<br />
here, Campbell said. "{Sykora)<br />
is on the planning board, then at<br />
the last minute he's out and a<br />
rookie is in his place. Greg did a<br />
lot <strong>of</strong> good for the city and the<br />
planning board, and the direction<br />
they are going in."<br />
Campbell said he believed the<br />
mayor's change was politically<br />
based, rather than what is in the<br />
best interest <strong>of</strong> the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Somers Point.<br />
"Talcing someone with no experience<br />
at all, to replace an eightyear<br />
journeyman, I worry about<br />
that," Campbell said.<br />
Campbell said DiMaria's<br />
refusal to explain his decision<br />
was preventing residents from<br />
having any way to understand<br />

DiMarfa denied making the<br />
change to Venal©, who has no<br />
planning board experience, for<br />
political reasons, but would not<br />
state what the reasons behind Ms<br />
decision were despite Campbell's<br />
many requests for an answer.<br />
"There are certain things 1 can<br />
not disclose to yea," BiSiaria<br />
said. "I think if is best, as Greg is<br />
not here, that I not disclose my<br />
reasons."<br />
DiMaria said he had reasons for<br />
making the change, b«t refused<br />
to disclose them, saying<br />
Campbell and any other interested<br />
party should "call Greg and<br />
ask Mm yourself."<br />
"Sometimes I have to make<br />
tough decisions. I am not going to<br />
say anything against Greg,"<br />
DiMaria said. '•Certain things<br />
happened and I had to make a<br />
decision."<br />
DiMaria defended his appointment<br />
<strong>of</strong> Venuto, saying the resident<br />
had many positive attributes<br />
to bring to the planning board.<br />
Appointments to the planning<br />
board are at the discretion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
mayor. DiMaria said a possible<br />
return to the planning board nest<br />
year for Sykora would not be<br />
ruled out. DiMaria's three-year<br />
term as mavor ends at the end <strong>of</strong><br />
the year, and he has not yet stated<br />
if he intends to run for re-election,<br />
la November, he made an<br />
unsuccessful run for county freeholder.<br />
The duties <strong>of</strong> the city's<br />
planning board include review <strong>of</strong><br />
applications for new construction,<br />
lot subdivisions and additions<br />
or expansions on existing<br />
buildings. The applications are<br />
reviewed by the board for conformity<br />
to local zoning rules.<br />
Vemito has had many public<br />
clashes with Kirk Gerety, council<br />
president for the previous two<br />
years, during public meetings.<br />
DiMaria has also clashed with<br />
the Republican-controlled council<br />
over many issues in the past<br />
two years. Many <strong>of</strong> those arguments<br />
have led to accusations <strong>of</strong><br />

The press release continues,<br />

regular meeting on Monday, Feb.<br />
24. Since the possibility <strong>of</strong> an allday<br />
kindergarten program, a program<br />
Donatucci fully supports,<br />
came up for discussion again this<br />
year, parents in support and<br />
against the all-day program have<br />
regularly appeared at school<br />
board meetings to express their<br />
opimons on the issue. Currently<br />
school administrators and staff<br />

aspects <strong>of</strong> possibly expanding the<br />
program to a full-day schedule.<br />
The results <strong>of</strong> the study are<br />
expected at the Feb. 3 public<br />
meeting.<br />
At the Monday Jan. 13 board<br />
meeting, several administrators<br />
reported that work !h areas <strong>of</strong><br />
scheduling, rationale and other<br />
committees is ongoing, in anticipation<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Feb. 3 and 10 meetings.<br />
No specifics were given.<br />
Many parents have said they<br />
would support an all-day program<br />
if and when the board can<br />
show how the program would be<br />
nut and financed, where it would<br />
be housed, and that no other district<br />
program would suffer<br />
because <strong>of</strong> the change in the<br />
kindergarten program.<br />
The board has promised to take<br />
no action GO the matter before<br />
the public meeting and that all<br />
questions and concerns would be<br />

addressed by the board first<br />
At present, Upper Township is<br />
the only area district not <strong>of</strong>fering<br />
a full-day kindergarten program.<br />
At the Jan. 13 meeting, a pareni<br />
questioned if the board had<br />
intentions to establish a third session<br />
<strong>of</strong> the all-day French<br />
Immersion kindergarten program.<br />
School Board President<br />
Fran Newman said the board had<br />
not, at any time, discussed<br />
whether to create a third year <strong>of</strong><br />
the program.<br />
"At this point, the board has not<br />
discussed (French Immersion)<br />
for this year," Newman said. "It<br />
has not come tip at all for something<br />
we are looking to happen<br />
next year." .<br />
Donatucci said French<br />
Immersion kindergarten would<br />
be something the board would<br />
have to discuss in February.<br />
"I plan to bring it to the board,"<br />
Donatucci said. "It would be in<br />
open session. Well make that discussion<br />
known."<br />
Last year, the creation <strong>of</strong> a second<br />
year <strong>of</strong> the French<br />
Immersion kindergarten program<br />
came under fire from parents,<br />
teachers and board vice<br />
president Audrey Ekhenberge_r.<br />
When the budget was defeated in<br />
April 2002, resulting in cuts<br />
being required, Eichenberger<br />
again argued to eliminate the<br />
second session <strong>of</strong> the program,<br />
rather than cutting other budget<br />
areas. Her recommendation was<br />
Bot supported by the beard.<br />
The district also came under<br />
fire last spring when the selection<br />
lottery, performed by then-<br />
Superinteadent <strong>of</strong> Schools Dr.<br />
Albert Moniflas, was questioned<br />
as to how it was conducted and<br />
the selections made.<br />
Those registering their children<br />

Upper Twp. school district hires new assistant principal<br />
By MARY RUDLOFF<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
_ UPPER TOWNSHIP - At their<br />
\ vn ist recer* meeting, the local<br />
school igrt. /oted to fill the positio;<br />
ol assistant "vice principal<br />
establis. 1 ;d at last month's meeting.<br />
In a pair <strong>of</strong> unanimous votes<br />
following a lengthy executive<br />
session at their Monday, Jan. 13<br />
meeting, the board <strong>of</strong> education<br />
voted to <strong>of</strong>fer a contract to<br />
Vincent Palmieri Jr. for the<br />
recently created position <strong>of</strong> assistant<br />
vice principal at the district's<br />
middle school.<br />
* '- Pabnieri, currently an assistant<br />
principal at Middle Township<br />
High School, will join the district<br />
approximately March 15. He is<br />
contractually required by the<br />
Middle Township school district<br />
to give 60 days' notice.<br />
Palmieri's salary for the year is<br />
$76,000, to be prorated for the<br />
number <strong>of</strong> days he works in the<br />
district for the remainder <strong>of</strong> the<br />
school year.<br />
The school board also unanimously<br />
approved a motion hiring<br />
an interim assistant principal<br />
until the time Palmieri joins the<br />
district. The board approved<br />
appointing Les Carestio to the<br />
position <strong>of</strong> interim assistant principal.<br />
Carestio was hired at a per<br />
day rate <strong>of</strong> $215.00, to serve in<br />
the position from Jan. 15 to<br />
March 14. The total cost <strong>of</strong><br />
Carestio's interim service should<br />
run the district slightly more<br />
than $9,000 for that time period.<br />
"The middle school's organization<br />
is complex, especially with<br />
650 students," Superintendent <strong>of</strong><br />
Schools Frederick Donatucci<br />
said. "This is really a two-person<br />
operation."<br />
Donatucci said adding the<br />
assistant principal would give the<br />
middle school staff more <strong>of</strong> an<br />
"bility to focus on educational<br />
,,$^e ', most importantly mathemi<br />
xs. The district's math scores<br />
on the 8th grade testing took a<br />
hard hit last year.<br />
"The real factor is to be_ able to<br />
put more emphasis on instruction,"<br />
Donatucci said.<br />
In addition to duties at the middle<br />
school, which were not<br />
detailed at the time <strong>of</strong> hiring,<br />
Palmieri will be responsible to<br />
oversee the community education<br />
(CEUT) program for the district.<br />
The board has stated the need for<br />
revamping some aspects <strong>of</strong> the<br />
CEUT program, which the district<br />
operates at a financial loss.<br />
Formerly, many <strong>of</strong> the duties<br />
Palmieri will assume, including<br />
supervision <strong>of</strong> the CEUT program,<br />
were handled by<br />
Supervisor <strong>of</strong> Special Projects<br />
Scott Read. Read resigned his<br />
position in the district, effective<br />
Jan, 2, to become an assistant<br />
principal in little Egg Harbor<br />
Township school district.<br />
In October 2001, Read had<br />
requested the board change his<br />
title from Supervisor <strong>of</strong> Special<br />
Projects to assistant principal.<br />
The board unanimously rejected<br />
the resolution to do so. At that<br />
time, several board members<br />
stated they felt it was the board's<br />
obligation to adhere to the outcome<br />
<strong>of</strong> a vote a few years prior,<br />
when voters rejected a separate<br />
question at budget time regarding<br />
the establishment <strong>of</strong> the position<br />
<strong>of</strong> assistant principal None<br />

MAY COURT HOUSE -<br />
The murder trial <strong>of</strong> Edward<br />
Roman Sr. <strong>of</strong> Lower Township,<br />
continues this week in the courtroom<br />
<strong>of</strong> Judge Carmen Alvarez<br />
here.<br />
The jury consists <strong>of</strong> seven men<br />
and five women.<br />
Testimony Tuesday began with<br />
the county medical examiner and<br />
included several witnesses and a<br />
playing <strong>of</strong> a chilling 911 tape, in<br />
which Roman is heard to say<br />
rdmly to the policeman who<br />
afeves on the scene, "What's<br />
up?"<br />
Roman is charged with first<br />
degree murder in the death <strong>of</strong> his<br />
seven-week-old son Edward Jr.<br />
Roman is also charged with two<br />
counts <strong>of</strong> endangering the welfare<br />
<strong>of</strong> a child and two counts <strong>of</strong><br />
laggravated assault, one count<br />
each for Edward Jr., and one<br />
each for Edward's twin brother,<br />
Aeotin Roman.<br />
Barbara Bakley Marino from<br />
the Cape May County<br />
Prosecutor's Office represents<br />
the state's case and Joseph<br />
Marrone is representing Roman.<br />
Marrone has <strong>of</strong>fices in Camden<br />
and Philadelphia.<br />
Cape May County Medical<br />
Examiner Dr. Elliot Gross was<br />
the first person to testify for the<br />
prosecution Tuesday and spent<br />
almost 30 minutes answering<br />
ptibns regarding his creden-<br />
. The defense raised issues<br />
about Gross, including his error<br />
in a recent case reporting a suffocation<br />
death that led to his dismissal<br />
as an assistant Atlantic<br />
County Medical Examiner.<br />
Marrone did not object to Gross<br />
as an expert witness for the prosecution.<br />
According to Gross, Edward, Jr.<br />
had as many as ten rib fractures<br />
^ i right side and ten on his<br />
left side, as well as fractures on<br />
both sides <strong>of</strong> his skull.<br />
"In my opinion, they had to be<br />
inflicted," Gross testified.<br />
Gross said his finding as to<br />
cause <strong>of</strong> death was subdural<br />
hemorrhage due to fractures <strong>of</strong><br />
the skull due to blunt force trauma<br />
to the head. Gross said it was<br />
"extremely unlikely" those<br />
injuries could have occurred as<br />
the result <strong>of</strong> a fall from a couch,<br />
which is how Roman initially told<br />
police the baby was injured.<br />
Under defense questioning,<br />
however, Gross admitted it's<br />
"possible" but unlikely the<br />
injuries could have been caused<br />
by the resuscitation efforts <strong>of</strong><br />
police, emergency medical<br />
examiners and the hospital.<br />
The defense raised issues about<br />
the baby's handling by police,<br />
EMTs and- medical workers at<br />
the hospital. Marrone asked<br />
Burdette Tomlin Medical<br />
Director Dr. William R. Weisberg<br />
if a tracheal tube inserted into<br />
the baby's mouth before the<br />
baby's arrival at the hospital had<br />
been inserted incorrectly.<br />
Shapiro Cancer and Heart Fund.<br />
Each <strong>of</strong> the four charities<br />
received $6,100 for their respective<br />
programs.<br />
The Customer Discretion<br />
Awards is part <strong>of</strong> Cape Saving's<br />
Community Involvement<br />
Program called Cape Cares. Each<br />
year the bank donates a portion<br />
<strong>of</strong> its revenue to local events,<br />
groups and non-pr<strong>of</strong>it organizations.<br />
To date, Cape Savings has contributed<br />
over $1.4 million to the<br />
community, Cape Savings<br />
employees .have volunteered over<br />
1,000 hours in support <strong>of</strong> local<br />
events and charities.<br />
Grande, Vineland, Somers Point<br />
and Pleasantville stores were not<br />
included on the list. New Jersey<br />
stores to be closed are Big K-<br />
Marts in Delran, Old Bridge and<br />
Pennsauken.<br />
The new closings follow 283<br />
closed in 2002 after the discount<br />
retail giant filed for Chapter 11<br />
bankruptcy protection on Jan. 22,<br />
2002. The anticipated closings<br />
will eliminate 37,000 jobs. The<br />
2002 closings left another 22,000<br />
employees without a job. This<br />
year's closings will leave the<br />
chain with slightly more than<br />
1,500 stores in the United States,<br />
the Caribbean and Guam, onethird<br />
fewer stores than prior to<br />
bankruptcy filing.<br />
Stores closing are a combination<br />
<strong>of</strong> Super-K's and Big K-<br />
Marts in 44 states and two in<br />
Puerto Rico. Hardest hit with<br />
closings are Texas, losing 54 K-<br />
Marts; Florida, which will see 25<br />
closings. North Carolina with 18<br />
and California with 19 stores to<br />
shut their doors.<br />
The company is to file disclosure<br />
forms by Jan. 24, which<br />
includes reorganization plans.<br />
Company <strong>of</strong>ficials have stated it<br />
is the corporation's intent to<br />
emerge from bankruptcy by<br />
April 30. As part <strong>of</strong> that effort, it<br />
was announced the company has<br />
received commitments <strong>of</strong> $2 billion<br />
in exit financing, from GE<br />
Commercial Financing, Fleet<br />
Retail Financing and Bank <strong>of</strong><br />
America NA.<br />
Somers Point residents saw<br />
construction on their recently<br />
opened Kmart come to a grinding<br />
halt shortly after the January<br />
2002 bankruptcy filing. At the<br />
time, city <strong>of</strong>ficials were unsure <strong>of</strong><br />
the status <strong>of</strong> the then-steel frame<br />
structure. Construction resumed<br />
after several months <strong>of</strong> limbo,<br />
and the store opened its doors in •<br />
October.<br />
Several other discount retail<br />
chains that had area stores filed<br />
for bankruptcy, but were unable<br />
to emerge from the financial protection<br />
and ended up closing the<br />
doors on the entire chain. Those<br />
chains included both Bradlees,<br />
who closed in the mid-90s, and<br />
Jamesway, which had four stores<br />
in Cape May County alone, which<br />
never regained its financial feet<br />
after filing bankruptcy and closing<br />
some area stores in the early<br />
'90s. <strong>On</strong>e local reminder <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Jamesway chain, the store in<br />
Cedar Square on Route 9 in<br />
Seaville, remains empty still.<br />

. EDITORIAL<br />
<strong>On</strong>e resident,<br />
one vote<br />
At the shore, it doesn't have to be<br />
'taxation without representaiton'<br />
It isn't hard to understand why<br />
some owners <strong>of</strong> vacation homes at<br />
the Jersey shore want the opportunity<br />
to vote in local elections.<br />
Given the value <strong>of</strong> properties in<br />
communities such as <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> or<br />
Cape May or points in between,<br />
there is a lot <strong>of</strong> money at stake - tax<br />
money, primarily.<br />
State Assemblyman Peter Eagler,<br />
D-Essex, has proposed legislation<br />
to allow nonresidents the right to<br />
file absentee ballots in the communities<br />
in which they own properties.<br />
They would be able to vote in<br />
school elections, municipal elections<br />
and on local referendums.<br />
Nonresidents would also have the<br />
right to vote in fire district elections,<br />
but we get the feeling that<br />
isn't where their interest lies.<br />
The interest is in how much they<br />
have to pay in taxes.<br />
It's the sense <strong>of</strong> taxation without<br />
representation ... being taxed on<br />
properties yet not having the right<br />
to an <strong>of</strong>ficial say at the ballot box.<br />
If a person owns property in a<br />
town, having the right to vote there<br />
isn't a far-fetched idea, but it is an<br />
idea that should not be remedied by<br />
Eagler's legislation.<br />
There is little doubt in places<br />
where the landscape is <strong>of</strong>ten dominated<br />
by second homes, investment<br />
and vacation properties, a large<br />
portion <strong>of</strong> the tax revenue is<br />
derived from sources that don't get<br />
to vote on issues that affect how<br />
those taxes are decided. That's the<br />
rub for a growing number <strong>of</strong> nonresidents<br />
with tax bills to pay.<br />
The problem with giving nonresidents<br />
the right to vote is that it is a<br />
major backward step in the way<br />
this nation is governed. The United<br />
States was far from perfect through<br />
much <strong>of</strong> its history on who was<br />
accorded a vote. It took until 1869<br />
before nonwhites were given the<br />
right to vote and until 1919 that<br />
women got a shot at the ballot box.<br />
The requirement to vote in elections<br />
boils down to two simple<br />
things - residency and having<br />
attained the age <strong>of</strong> 18 (at least since<br />
1971).<br />
There isn't a requirement about<br />
being a property owner. It has to do<br />
with living in a community. The<br />
expectation is that people should<br />
have the right to vote where they<br />
LETTERS<br />
Rebuilding homes In<br />
Afghanistan may stop<br />
generations <strong>of</strong> hatred<br />
To the editor:<br />
So, here we are starting the 21st centu-<br />
,ry and what has our long, illustrious history<br />
brought us to? The countries <strong>of</strong> the<br />
world, snarling like dogs over the<br />
remaining oil fields on the planet. The<br />
United States is assuming the role <strong>of</strong> the<br />
big bully dog, seeking to claim oil<br />
resources from other less powerful<br />
countries. The U.S. policy doesn't mind<br />
the collateral damage <strong>of</strong> dead Iraqi children,<br />
or even worse, those who die <strong>of</strong><br />
leukemia from our uranium-tipped<br />
bombs, true "weapons <strong>of</strong> mass destruction."<br />
Meanwhile, in Afghanistan, where<br />
once we gave billions in military assistance<br />
to Osama bin Laden and gang,<br />
most recently we've spent billions trying<br />
to find him, and kill him. An unfortunate<br />
effect <strong>of</strong> this, as reported by the New<br />
York Times, is that one-half million<br />
Afghans had their houses bombed and<br />
destroyed. With no resources, they cry<br />
as their families starve. Just think <strong>of</strong> the<br />
good will America would incur if they<br />
1 rebuilt the houses and infrastructures<br />
they bombed.<br />
If we neglect them, we could develop a<br />
new generation in Afghanistan who think<br />
Americans are the enemies.<br />
The irony is, every day on the talk<br />
shows, innumerable chubby ladies show<br />
have decided to reside.<br />
The concept <strong>of</strong> property owners<br />
being given special treatment<br />
recalls the days <strong>of</strong> the landed gentry,<br />
when only people <strong>of</strong> means<br />
were accorded the stature worthy<br />
<strong>of</strong> a vote. The ideal <strong>of</strong> a democracy<br />
is equality - one man (or woman),<br />
one vote. It shouldn't matter if a<br />
person rents an efficiency apartment<br />
or owns a million-dollar<br />
beachfront home. Neither deserves<br />
an advantage when it comes to<br />
deciding important aspects <strong>of</strong> a<br />
community - electing <strong>of</strong>ficials or<br />
voting on referendums.<br />
Frankly, we don't like the idea that<br />
someone wealthy enough to Afford<br />
property throughout the state<br />
would also have the right tavote in<br />
community after community. We<br />
fear financial interests would rule,<br />
rather than more rounded interests<br />
<strong>of</strong> those who have to feel the day-today<br />
effects <strong>of</strong> their voting.<br />
<strong>On</strong>e likely byproduct <strong>of</strong> giving<br />
nonresidents the vote would be felt<br />
on referendums for spending, particularly<br />
on schools. Without a residency<br />
stake in a community, it's<br />
hard to expect nonresidents to want<br />
to fund buildings or budgets when<br />
they're already paying for that type<br />
<strong>of</strong> thing in their home communities.<br />
Local <strong>of</strong>ficials would have reason<br />
to fear the consistent demise <strong>of</strong> the<br />
referendums they propose. Imagine<br />
what that could have meant to the<br />
votes for school construction in<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> or Lower Township,<br />
where regional school districts both<br />
needed new or bigger high schools?<br />
It was tough enough to approve a<br />
referendum when only local residents<br />
- including those with kids in<br />
the school districts - were voting.<br />
To put it bluntly, there doesn't<br />
need to be legislation giving people<br />
with greater financial wherewithal<br />
additional votes. Those nonresidents<br />
already have the opportunity<br />
- they can become residents by<br />
changing their registration and<br />
declaring residency status where<br />
they own property.<br />
If someone is concerned enough<br />
to want to vote in a New Jersey<br />
community, they should be willing<br />
to make that community their <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />
residence.<br />
up to weep and bemoan the fact they are<br />
fat; and actually have access to too much<br />
food! Why don't we send them to<br />
Afghanistan, to live amongst the people,<br />
and give the money they would otherwise<br />
spend on Ho-Ho's and Weight-<br />
Watchers programs to buy lumber for<br />
houses? They'd lose weight, too!<br />
Of course, I jest, but the arrogance, disregard<br />
<strong>of</strong> human suffering, and lack <strong>of</strong><br />
respect for people <strong>of</strong> other countries,<br />
who maybe "aren't quite white" could be<br />
an answer as to why we find ourselves<br />
with so many enemies.<br />

Ecumenical Council<br />
appreciates help<br />
-with food pantry<br />
To the editor:<br />
Veterans Day (2002) was celebrated in<br />
various ways by <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> residents.<br />
<strong>On</strong>e such way was to participate in the<br />
food drive sponsored by the U.S. Post<br />
Office letter carriers. In excess <strong>of</strong> 10,000<br />
pounds <strong>of</strong> food was collected and delivered<br />
to the Ecumenical Council's "food<br />
cupboard" in St. Peter's Methodist<br />
Church where it filled every nook and<br />
cranny (floor and shelves). That<br />
Saturday and the next Monday volunteers<br />
spent hours making order out <strong>of</strong><br />
"food chaos." We even had to use another<br />
room <strong>of</strong> the church for several food<br />
carts donated by the local Super Fresh.<br />

COMMENTARY<br />
LETTERS<br />
To the editor:<br />
The proposed elimination <strong>of</strong> taxes on<br />
dividends should only occur if all shareholders<br />
receive the tax benefits. Not just<br />
the wealthy. Most middle class workers<br />
and retirees own most <strong>of</strong> their stock in<br />
their 401k, IRA, Roth plans, 529 plans<br />
etc. Elimination <strong>of</strong> the dividend tax is<br />
meaningless for this group.<br />
In order to make all investors parri<br />
passu as to the tax proposal, I <strong>of</strong>fer the<br />
following suggestion.<br />
Dividends received during the year in<br />
the plans listed above will be reported<br />
on a 1099 form each year. The taxpayer<br />
will list this amount as a negative<br />
amount on the Dividend line on their<br />
1040 tax return as reduction from gross<br />
income. Therefore the taxpayer will<br />
receive a tax benefit in the year the dividend<br />
was earned but not received.<br />
When the dividend is actually distributed<br />
from the plan, the taxpayer will<br />
then pay a tax on the dividend, which<br />
will by then be commingled with other<br />
taxable retirement income. The eventual<br />
tax paid will be <strong>of</strong>fset by the original<br />
tax benefit already taken. The effective<br />
tax rates may be different and possibly<br />
lower at the retirement distribution<br />
date, which is a further break to the middle<br />
class. The tax benefit will precede<br />
the tax payment, which also <strong>of</strong>fers a positive<br />
tax timing arbitrage.<br />
The above solution will encourage<br />
more retirement saving and thus greater<br />
capital investment in dividend paying<br />
stocks. Higher dividends should also<br />
create higher stock values and income<br />
yields for all retirement plans through<br />
the elimination <strong>of</strong> double taxation on<br />
dividends. With rising health care costs<br />
for retirees and the curtailment <strong>of</strong><br />
defined benefit pension plans, personal<br />
savings for retirement is no longer discretionary,<br />
but mandatory.<br />
This solution will also create a shortterm<br />
economic stimulus with current<br />
tax benefits that the government will<br />
eventually recoup back to surplus. Thus<br />
a win for all.<br />

Speed-limit on the<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> Clty-Longport<br />
bridge needs thought<br />
To the editor:<br />
The <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>-Longport bridge has<br />
been well "broken in" and seems to be<br />
doing just fine. It will help ease a lot <strong>of</strong><br />
last summer's traffic problems. But do<br />
the authorities actually believe that<br />
motorists will observe a 25-mph speed<br />
limit? Why not be sensible and avoid<br />
making law-breakers out <strong>of</strong> everyone?<br />

Cape May<br />
Assemblyman sets<br />
his priorities for<br />
the new year<br />
To the editor:<br />
The transition into a new year is<br />
always met with great anticipation and<br />
excitement. Regardless <strong>of</strong> the form <strong>of</strong><br />
celebrating, the new year is a time to<br />
remember the places we've been, and'<br />
look forward to where we want to go. It<br />
is the result <strong>of</strong> such contemplation that<br />
has caused me to highlight the issues I<br />
intend to focus on throughout 2003.<br />
As many <strong>of</strong> you know, I am greatly<br />
invested in the well-being <strong>of</strong> our country's<br />
veterans, due to my family's history<br />
<strong>of</strong>" sacrifice and support <strong>of</strong> our nation.<br />
I will work to ensure that the renovations<br />
to the Vineland Veterans Home<br />
proceed smoothly. Also, at this time<br />
when pur National Guard is being called<br />
into active duty, it has never been more<br />
imperative to treat military personnel,<br />
regardless <strong>of</strong> time or location <strong>of</strong> service,<br />
as recognized veterans. I will continue to<br />
pursue the passing <strong>of</strong> A887 which will<br />
broaden the current limited definition <strong>of</strong><br />
those whom New Jersey determines to<br />
be a veteran. Lastly, I will continue to<br />
work extensively with our federal legislators<br />
to make sure our veterans have<br />
the access to quality health care that a<br />
VA hospital in our community would<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer.<br />
o<br />
Secondly, access to health care is not a .v<br />
mere concern <strong>of</strong> veterans. Rather, it is ;j<br />
an issue affecting everyone living i( ',;<br />
New Jersey. As New Jersey joins the ".<br />
nation in an insurance crisis, it is now i 1<br />
more imperative to address the argument<br />
on medical malpractice. The issue *<br />
is one that involves several groups, each ;",<br />
with their warranted concerns. »<br />
However, if a solution is not reached l<br />
quickly, the most damage will be inflict- ^<br />
ed upon the average citizen. We must *=<br />
efficiently develop a viable compromise ~*><br />
in order to avoid our access to health ^<br />
care being diminished. -^<br />
Cape May County faces many uniqu# ;<br />
issues that must be addressed by the ';'<br />
State Legislature as well. For example,' ".<br />
another goal I have for 2003 is to advo- .*<br />
cate for a statewide program that would f<br />
encourage barrier island communities to ~<br />
research and utilize alternative water":<br />
desalination mechanisms. Due to- the. :•<br />
demand from our population, particular- ^<br />
ly during the summer tourist season,'thief.' ?<br />
level <strong>of</strong> consumable water has bijeni;<br />
decreasing at an alarming rate-.-It's sim*- 'ply<br />
being depleted faster than it can beL •<br />
replaced from available aquifers. "<br />
Employing alternative methods <strong>of</strong> •_<br />
desalination is an effective and efficient t<br />
way to secure our vital water supply : \<br />
well into the future.<br />
Lastly, throughout my tenure as a state<br />
assemblyman, I have spent a great deal '<br />
<strong>of</strong> effort focusing on the economic devel- 5 ;<br />
opment <strong>of</strong> our region. Tourism in Cape ^<br />
May County has been an obvious priori- s<br />
ty. However, it is also important to *<br />
strengthen the economy <strong>of</strong> our commu- °a ?<br />
nities throughout the entire year. Foar K<br />
this reason, I will continue working t&-ibe<br />
maintained, as well as any new initiatives<br />
to highlight the Wildwood _}<br />
Convention Center should be developed.<br />
I would like to thank those individuals<br />
that have assisted my <strong>of</strong>fice in the past,<br />
and I look forward to working with the -A><br />
local, county, state and federal <strong>of</strong>ficial^ '*<br />
throughout this new year. In addition, I 91<br />
encourage the residents <strong>of</strong> the First ^<br />
District to feel free to contact me with ;'o<br />
any state-related concerns you may v<br />
have. You can reach my <strong>of</strong>fice at *<br />

these goals outlined above throughout w<br />
2003, I also wish you a new year filled<br />
with health, happiness, and good for- .„<br />

Kruk and vocalist and program<br />
narrator Derrick McQueen banished<br />
the wintry chill with warm<br />
entertainment and fine musicianship.<br />
McQueen delivered amusing<br />
and informative oral program<br />
notes while the Jacobsons and<br />
Kruk made lively music. Al<br />
Jacobson's alto sax and Irv^s nimble<br />
fingers at the electronic keyboard,<br />
with Kruk punctuating lie<br />
songs with her acoustic bass with<br />
grand style, brought things neatly<br />
together. McQueen provided<br />
information about the circumstances<br />
surrounding the genesis<br />
<strong>of</strong> each song. Lorenz Hart died<br />
young, the victim <strong>of</strong> his excessive<br />
bouts with the bottle. During dry<br />
episodes between binges, he<br />
wrote lyrics for innumerable<br />
songs that illuminated the "Great<br />
White Way" for all too brief a<br />
time.<br />
McQueen prefaced a parade <strong>of</strong><br />
the memorable songs with, as<br />
Sgt. Friday would put it, the facts.<br />
"Little Boy Blue" was featured in<br />
"Jumbo," a circus musical starring<br />
Jimmy Durante. Then there<br />
were "My Romance," "Small<br />
Hotel" and "Bewitched, Bothered<br />
and Bewildered." The latter song<br />
kept migrating from show to<br />
show until it found its place<br />
among American standards.<br />
McQueen's singing <strong>of</strong> the song<br />
was something to savor, as his<br />
voice is a phenomenal instrument<br />
with an impressive range. .<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel critic<br />
OCEAN CITY - The <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
Music Pier was almost filled on a<br />
glorious sunny albeit frigid afternoon<br />
on Saturday, Jan. 11. The<br />
reason for the crowd was the second<br />
appearance <strong>of</strong> "Seven Quilts<br />
for Seven Sisters," hosted by the<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Historical Museum.<br />
When "Seven Quilts" first<br />
appeared here two years ago, the<br />
atrium <strong>of</strong> the Center could barely<br />
contain the 300 people who<br />
turned out. The Music Pier was a<br />
much better venue for the show.<br />
"A Stitch in Time" is a marvelous<br />
show from any standpoint.<br />
The presentation consists <strong>of</strong><br />
songs, stories and a most palatable<br />
history lesson. The ladies<br />
were costumed as their slave<br />
ancestors would have been<br />
dressed 200 years ago. Behind<br />
them was an array <strong>of</strong> beautiful<br />
quilts they had made. The women<br />
described the many uses <strong>of</strong> the<br />
quilts, above and beyond the utilitarian.<br />
Their ancestors began<br />
quilting to escape some <strong>of</strong> the<br />
plantation drudgery and provided<br />
a measure <strong>of</strong> social interaction,<br />
that was <strong>of</strong>ten missing from their<br />
oppression-laden lives. All the<br />
ladies were marvelous actors<br />
who have the ability to switch<br />
gears from the King's English to<br />
plantation dialect with split timing,<br />
all the whole staying in character.<br />
Stories and comic bits were<br />
interspersed with wonderful<br />
choral singing <strong>of</strong> songs like<br />
"Motherless Child," the lively<br />
"Watermelon Song," "Tile Great<br />
Camp Meeting," "Steal Away,"<br />
"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and<br />
"Standing in the Need <strong>of</strong> Prayer."<br />
They danced the cakewalk and<br />
gossiped hilariously. They told<br />
stories in the African oral tradition<br />
<strong>of</strong> the griots. Slaves weren't<br />
allowed to learn how to read or<br />
write and so the culture was kept<br />
alive by story-telling. Some <strong>of</strong> the<br />
best stories were at the expense<br />
<strong>of</strong> the slave masters. A keen<br />
sense <strong>of</strong> humor was instrumental<br />
for survival. There were stories<br />
about Mr. Scratch, the devil and<br />
how random stitching was used<br />
to confuse demons while straight<br />
line stitching was the province <strong>of</strong><br />
the slave holders.<br />
There were only six sisters<br />
onstage because unfortunately<br />
one sister had passed away three<br />
years ago. They kept her memory<br />
alive by showing her work. The<br />
surviving sisters held up their<br />
quilts and explained how color<br />
codes and choices <strong>of</strong> subject<br />
served as a means <strong>of</strong> communication.<br />
"A Stitch in Time" received a<br />
well deserved standing ovation<br />
and the ladies were besieged by<br />
people asking questions and<br />
seeking to purchase quilts and<br />
CDs <strong>of</strong> their singing. The singing<br />
was a capella and without a conductor,<br />
with close harmony and a<br />
full range <strong>of</strong> voices. <strong>On</strong>e <strong>of</strong> the<br />
sisters, Mrs. Phyllis Walker,<br />
promised that on a subsequent<br />
visit the group would sing<br />
"Follow the Drinking Gourd,"<br />
which was sung by the escaping<br />
slaves as they migrated northward<br />
led by heroines like Harriet<br />
Tubman and Soj owner Truth.<br />
Paul Anselm was overheard<br />
inviting one <strong>of</strong> the performers to<br />
bring the show back as ah annual<br />
event. Anselm rightly said those<br />
who were there Saturday would<br />
bring their friends, for good reason.<br />
Many in the audience spoke<br />
about anticipating the Seven<br />
Sisters' next appearance here<br />
and elsewhere. It was one grand<br />
afternoon.<br />

mischievously bouncy in the<br />
upbeat "This Can't Be Love,"<br />
from "The Boys from Syracuse,"<br />
a show based on Shakespeare's<br />
"A Comedy <strong>of</strong> Errors" as was<br />
Cole Porter's "Kiss Me Kate."<br />
McQueen gave fascinating background<br />
information for each<br />
song. A number called "Have You<br />
Met Miss Jones" was in a show<br />
called "I'd Rather be Right" starring<br />
George M. Cohan as FDR.<br />
McQueen told <strong>of</strong> a song titled<br />
"Dancing on the Ceiling," written<br />
to exploit the multiple talents <strong>of</strong><br />
British musical star Jessie<br />
Matthews. The song, with its<br />
poignant words, was also a signa-<br />
ture vehicle for '50s vocalistpianist<br />
Jerri Sothern. The quartet<br />
promised to work up an arrangement<br />
<strong>of</strong> "Dancing on the Ceiling,"<br />
which would be a natural for<br />
McQueen to sing.<br />
The quartet produced a sophisticated<br />
sound with a menu <strong>of</strong><br />
great songs full <strong>of</strong> warm memo-<br />

Lady Raiders <strong>of</strong>f to best start in a decade<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> girls basketball is 8-1, working to overcome the loss <strong>of</strong> standout Catie LaRue<br />
> By CHARLIE WOOD<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
Off to their best start in a decade with<br />
an 8-1 record through Monday, Jan. 13,<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> High School's Lady Raider<br />
basketball team must now deal with the<br />
adversity <strong>of</strong> losing one <strong>of</strong> its premier<br />
players.<br />
Senior Catie LaRue, who has already<br />
accepted a scholarship to play for coach<br />
Stephanie Vanderslice Gaitley at Long<br />
^Island University next year, suffered a<br />
broken nose in practice on Monday, Jan.<br />
6, and will be out <strong>of</strong> the lineup for about<br />
four weeks, according to <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
coach Paul Baruffi.<br />
Prior to her injury, LaRue was averaging<br />
13 points per game through the first<br />
five games <strong>of</strong> this season.<br />
Her return will probably come early in<br />
February when the Lady Raiders also<br />
expect senior point guard Rachel<br />
Constantine to return from an ACL<br />
injury which happened last summer.<br />
"I feel really, really bad for Catie, and<br />
Rachel," Baruffi said. "We feel bad for<br />
the person, but as a team we have to play<br />
through it. We have to move on."<br />
Constantine has not played at all this<br />
year, and LaRue missed all three <strong>of</strong> last<br />
week's games when <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> beat<br />
previously undefeated Vineland, 42-29,<br />
beat Buena 69-18 and then nipped testy<br />
Lower Cape May 50-46.<br />
"I told the girls this is an opportunity to<br />
step up, and in the first two games without<br />
Catie, they've all stepped up,"<br />
Baruffi said after the Buena win. "They<br />
want playing time, now they're getting it,<br />
and they're doing what they need to do."<br />
In the win over Vineland on Jan. 7, sen-<br />
ior forward Ashley DuRoss led a balanced<br />
attack with 10 points. Her sister<br />
Kaitlyn, a sophomore, had nine, senior<br />
Mary Rybicki had eight and junior<br />
Megan Larsen added seven.<br />
Playing at home against Buena on Jan.<br />
9,' the same day LaRue underwent surgery<br />
for her broken nose, the Lady<br />
Raiders completely dismantled Buena<br />
led by a career high <strong>of</strong> <strong>16</strong> points from<br />
Rybicki.<br />
Buena scored just two points in the second<br />
quarter and did not score in the<br />
fourth quarter, as <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> improved<br />
to 6-1.<br />
The Lady Raiders' revved up defense<br />
had a lot to do with Buena's inability to<br />
score, as they forced 14 turnovers led by<br />
three steals each from Rybicki and senior<br />
Run Treen. Seniors Kristen Gibb and<br />
Kaitlyn Lawlor added two steals each,<br />
and Lawlor added 11 points.<br />
"It was tough finding out that Catie<br />
Wasn't coming back, and now everyone<br />
has to step up," Rybicki said after the<br />
Buena game. "Catie is a hard loss, and<br />

battle,<br />
but Tigers ice the<br />
game at foul line<br />
By CHARLIE WOOD<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
OCEAN CITY - They got the<br />
intensity cranked up about as<br />
high as they could get it last<br />
Friday night, Jan. 10, in the<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Red Raider gym, but<br />
in the final two minutes, it took<br />
some calm, cool foul shooting by<br />
Lower Cape May's Tigers to ice<br />
the game.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> fought back in the<br />
fourth quarter to cut Lower's<br />
lead to four points, but the Tigers<br />
hit 14 <strong>of</strong> 18 chances from the<br />
charity stripe, including six <strong>of</strong> six<br />
by Matt Betz to clinch a 54-43<br />
win. ' - •<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> took the lead briefly<br />
in the game's opening minute on<br />
3-pointer by sophomore point<br />
guard Phil Schaffer, but Betz hit<br />
a 3-pointer about 20 seconds<br />
later to tie the score and Lower<br />
never trailed again.<br />
Still, through the remaining 30<br />
minutes <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> was relentless<br />
in its pursuit.<br />
"Lower Cape May is as good a<br />
coached team as you're going to<br />
see in the Cape Atlantic League,"<br />
said <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> coach John<br />
Bruno. "They play hard, and<br />
you've got to match their intensity,<br />
which I thought we did."<br />
Lower sat back in a 3-2 zone for<br />
the first two minutes, but then<br />
David Nahan/<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>'s Micah Rolls (No. 12)<br />
gets ready to shoot in Monday<br />
night's game at Millville. Rolls has<br />
been pounding the boards for<br />
rebounds this season.<br />
switched to full-court pressure<br />
arid a -man-to-man defense, and<br />
the race was on, helter skelter, up<br />
and down the floor.<br />
"We have some fast guards, and<br />
we like to extend our defense to<br />
try to create some transition,"<br />
said Lower's coach Pat Holden.<br />
"We're not prolific scorers, so<br />
defensively we've got to keep<br />
teams under 45 or 50 points if we<br />
expect to win."<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> kept the gap to within<br />
two or three points until midway<br />
through the second quarter<br />
when Betz ran <strong>of</strong>f seven straight<br />
points, and Tim Ruffzng closed<br />
out the first half with four more<br />
to open a 25-<strong>16</strong> lead.<br />
Lower could likely have<br />
extended its lead even more,<br />
except for the work <strong>of</strong> Micah<br />
Rolls, who grabbed six defensive<br />
rebounds in the first half to deny<br />
the Tigers second chances.<br />
"We were in a situation where<br />
we had a lot <strong>of</strong> mismatches, but I<br />
thought for a small team we<br />
rebounded well," Bruno said. "I<br />
thought we could beat them down<br />
the floor. We had some tough mismatches,<br />
and I thought if we<br />
could speed up the game a little<br />
bit it would be to our advantage."<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> picked up the intensity<br />
in the third quarter as<br />
Antwaine Campo scored on a<br />
wrap around underneath.<br />
Phil Schaffer ran the floor for<br />
tw6 more <strong>of</strong>f a defensive rebound<br />
by Rolls; and Jack Nixon drilled<br />
a trey <strong>of</strong>f an assist from Matt<br />
Schaffer to cut the lad to 27-26.<br />

• <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
In a bid to wrest the lead away<br />
from <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, the powerful<br />
Vineland Fighting Clan made an<br />
18-point run, but Raider senior<br />
Bob Skellenger and then freshman<br />
Josh Hawn stopped them<br />
cold.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>'s Red Raiders had<br />
the old high school gym in a<br />
clamor at their home opener last<br />
Wednesday, Jan. 8, as they<br />
surged past Vineland to take a<br />
surprising 18-6 lead after the<br />
first four matches.<br />
But the Clan fought back with<br />
four straight wins and 18 points<br />
to take theiead for the first time<br />
all night, 24-18, until Skellenger<br />
intervened. .<br />
The evening's matches started<br />
at 135 pounds and, wrestling in<br />
tiuj heavyweight - class,<br />
Skellenger went right to work<br />
with a take down and subsequent<br />
pin just 47 seconds into<br />
the match to even the score at<br />
24-24.<br />
It was the third time the score<br />
had been tied, and this time the<br />
Raiders' freshman rookie, Josh<br />
Hawn, at 103, broke it up with a<br />
dramatic takedown in overtime<br />
to win. a 7-5 decision, giving his<br />
team a 27-24 lead with four<br />
matches left.<br />
There was hope, but if faded<br />

NJSIAA sinks girls<br />
swim relays at states<br />
By CHAHLIE WOOD<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
<strong>of</strong> d rt'ceul ruliliiK by<br />
the NJSIAA, New Jprbey's governing<br />
body for high school<br />
.sports, the Occ:*n <strong>City</strong> High<br />
.school'» girls rela> svnat team*<br />
will not be allowed to compete in<br />
the tittle chiimpions urid inrls. Instead<br />
there is one c,o-ed team, which<br />
has been the case for a long, long<br />
lime<br />
And for a Inn*?, lon^ tune, it<br />
didn't matter Although competing<br />
agamst boys all season, girls,<br />
could rcht at-surtsd that when<br />
1 the ftate meet rolled around,<br />
those who had aualifymg rimes<br />
would compoto .iyaint>t only<br />
' siri* in the relays as well a& the<br />
individual events<br />
The rt-ccni ruling changes<br />
that.<br />

can'l enter ihu rulays,." .say*<br />
NJSIAA executive Cniol<br />
, Par-i<strong>On</strong>s, who over>,et:& swtm-<br />
And, Prf>*ion e.\pl;ti'is, in<br />
dnothct inteies-nny twist the<br />
JVJSIAA considers co-ed teams<br />
to be boys teams for purposes <strong>of</strong><br />
determining who goes to state<br />
relays, «veh if there arc tnore<br />
girls on the team ,<br />
However, she adds, co-ed |<br />
teams could commit as a girts<br />
learn for purposes <strong>of</strong> state<br />
relays, and <strong>of</strong> course that would<br />
knock out the<br />
boy« from the<br />
relays<br />
Girts can still<br />
enter individual events at the<br />
state meet, according to<br />
Parsons. Any school can send<br />
individuals to the stare meet, as<br />
Jong us those individuals have<br />
qualifying times.<br />
The ruling, which was<br />
approved by the NJSIAA's<br />
Program Review Committee as<br />
well as its Executive Committee,<br />
composed <strong>of</strong> an eaual number<br />
<strong>of</strong> superintendents, principals<br />
and athlete directors, seems to<br />
be a classic case <strong>of</strong> - "if it ain't<br />
broke, why fix it?"<br />
As far as> <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> High<br />
School's girls are concerned, it<br />
sure looks like it's broke now.<br />
In all fairness, the NJSIAA,<br />
which is> deeply committed to<br />
providing positive opportunities<br />
for New Jersey's young people,<br />
seldom makes 3n irrational decision.<br />
And there i.s d rationale fur this<br />
ruling, according to Parsons,<br />
who in this case is the administrator<br />
and not the decisionmates?<br />
"Co-ed swim teams only occur<br />
in a small portion <strong>of</strong> South<br />
Jersey." she explains "And the<br />
regulation should be in effect for<br />
the majority."<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> swimmers upset Atlantic <strong>City</strong>, 97-89<br />
By CHARLIE WOOD<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
Hard training over the holidays<br />
may have been the difference as<br />
the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Raider swim team<br />
opened the new year with a major<br />
upset <strong>of</strong> Atlantic <strong>City</strong>, 97-89, in a<br />
co-ed meet last Wednesday, Jan.<br />
8.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> won all three relays,<br />
went 1-2-3 in the 50 freestyle and<br />
took first and second in the 100<br />
freestyle against a veteran<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong> team that is expected<br />
to be among the elite in the<br />
CAL.<br />
"Atlantic <strong>City</strong> has some good<br />
kids," said <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> coach Curt<br />
Nath. "The difference was that<br />
they didn't train over die holidays.<br />
We put in eight: grand<br />
(8,000 meters), 2-3 hours every<br />
day over the break, and it paid<br />
<strong>of</strong>f."<br />
Normally Atlantic <strong>City</strong> competes<br />
with separate boys and<br />
girls teams, but against <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>, which has a co-ed team, the<br />
Vikings combined forces, or Jto be<br />
exact added state champion<br />
Moira McClosky, a senior, who<br />
won the 100 butterfly, and out-<br />
touched Raider senior Ken<br />
Sedberry to take first place in the<br />
100 backstroke.<br />
Moira's younger brother<br />
Dennon McClosky is also a formidable<br />
swimmer, and he won the<br />
200 and 500 freestyle events.<br />
"We mapped out our score a<br />
couple <strong>of</strong> days before the meet,<br />
and we expected to win by an<br />
even bigger margin," Nath said.<br />
"We expected Dennon to swim<br />
the individual medley and the<br />
backstroke, and we expected<br />
Moira to swim the 200 free and<br />
the 100 fly, so we conceded those<br />
four events."<br />
Instead <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> picked up<br />
some unexpected points when<br />
freshman Mike Corrigan won the<br />
100 individual medley, with<br />
Raider senior Heather Monroe<br />
third.<br />
Corrigan, Sedberry, Ian Hardin<br />
and Justin Southard combined to<br />
win the opening medley relay by<br />
a touch, and Raider freshman<br />
Justin Perry took second behind<br />
Dennon McClosky in the 200<br />
freestyle to keep the score tied.<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> took a slim lead with<br />
points from Corrigan and Monroe<br />
in the 200 IM.<br />
But Southard followed by<br />
Hardin and freshman Tom Kryzk<br />
swept the 50 freestyle to give<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> a 37-25 lead at the<br />
break for the diving.<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong> took first and second<br />
in the diving with <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>'s Emily Hayes third, but the<br />
Raiders still led 43-35.<br />
Moira McClosky won the 100<br />
butterfly with Kryzk second to<br />
cut the lead to 49-45, but<br />
Sedberry and Southard went 1-2<br />
in the 100 freestyle to stretch the<br />
Raider lead to 61-49.<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong> got within striking<br />
distance, 89-83, after placing first<br />
and second in the 100 breaststroke,<br />
but <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> came back<br />
to win the final 400 freestyle<br />
relay to clinch the win.<br />
Brian Riordan, Kryzk, Sedberry<br />
and anchorman Southard swam<br />
the 400 relay, which they won by<br />
six seconds over Atlantic <strong>City</strong>.<br />
In the 200 freestyle relay,<br />
Raiders Riordan, Corrigan,<br />
Kryzk and Hardin on the anchor<br />
beat Atlantic <strong>City</strong> by a touch.<br />
"As a co-ed team, it is nice to<br />
beat a predominantly guys team<br />
with Moira added," Nath said <strong>of</strong><br />
his team's win.<br />

Jersey schools, primarily those in<br />
the Cape Atlantic League, some<br />
<strong>of</strong> whom are still building programs,<br />
get short sheeted.<br />
Not all schools in the Cape<br />
Atlantic League <strong>of</strong>fer swimming<br />
as a varsity sport. Of those that<br />
do, only Mainland, Vineland,<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong>, Holy Spirit and<br />
Millville have separate teams for<br />
boys and girls. St. Augustine, an<br />
all boys school, has only a boys<br />
team. Co-ed teams include <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>, EHT, Oakcrest,<br />
Hammonton, Wildwood Catholic,<br />
Lower Cape May and Middle<br />
Township.<br />
Typically, but not always, co-ed<br />
teams when competing against<br />
schools with separate teams,<br />
swim against that school's boys<br />
team. Mainland and Atlantic are<br />
the exceptions. They swim co-ed<br />
against combined teams such as<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>.<br />
We thought maybe the<br />
NJSIAA's rational for forcing<br />
schools to sponsor two teams had<br />
something to do with added revenues.<br />
Not so, according to Parsons.<br />
Schools must pay an $80 fee to<br />
enter the team swim tournament,<br />
which consists <strong>of</strong> only eight<br />
teams for each sectional in<br />
groups I-rv; so that doesn't<br />
change. • :<br />
In the individuals state meet;<br />
the cost is $14 per event for<br />
either an individual race or a<br />
relay, so any change in this case<br />
is not significant<br />
Furthermore, Parsons adds, "If<br />
a school sponsors two teams<br />
there are more opportunities for<br />
boys and girls. It's a trade<strong>of</strong>f for'<br />
some schools, but if you can have<br />
more kids participating, that is<br />
the main idea."<br />
We have to agree with the<br />
NJSIAA's rationale for providing<br />
more opportunities for more<br />
kids, except for one big factor,<br />
and this is where we feel the<br />
NJSIAA is drawing the line a little<br />
too tight.<br />
In recent years, <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> has<br />
not had enough boys out for<br />
swimming to justify separate<br />
teams. There were always<br />
enough girls to fill most <strong>of</strong> the 11<br />
events, but rarely more than a<br />
half dozen boys. Most <strong>of</strong> the other<br />
co-ed swim teams are in the same<br />
boat.<br />
Even given more lead time by<br />
the NJSIAA regarding this<br />
change <strong>of</strong> venue, <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
probably would not have been<br />
able to muster the necessary<br />
numbers for separate teams this<br />
year.<br />
Still, under new coach Curt<br />
Nath, the numbers are improving<br />
for boys as well as girls.<br />
"It's too late to change anything<br />
for this year," says <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>'s<br />
athletic director Paul LeFever.<br />
"We'll review it at the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
year."<br />

Nath feels the ruling is totally<br />
unfair and we agree with him<br />
wholeheartedly,<br />
"If we split, we'd lose both<br />
ways," he says. "Right now the<br />
girls swim together in the relays,<br />
and they'll compete in the<br />
Hackneys and the CAL meet as a<br />
girls relay team, so I feel they<br />
should be allowed to compete in<br />
the states."<br />
We don't feel the NJSIAA has<br />
made a real strong case, say<br />
nothing <strong>of</strong> possible implications<br />
with Title IX, which is intended<br />
to provide equal opportunities for<br />
Lady Raiders<br />

Buena, which has returned to<br />
the CAL National Conference<br />
this year after two years in the<br />
American Conference, may not<br />
be the cream <strong>of</strong> the crop, but<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> went after the Lady<br />
Chiefs with- a vengeance.<br />
Rybicki set the tempo when she<br />
opened the game with a three<br />
pointer, and then put back a<br />
rebound for a 5-0 lead.<br />
The Lady Chiefs cut the lead to<br />
5-4, but that was as close as they<br />
could get.<br />
Jenny Williams scored <strong>of</strong>f an<br />
assist from Kaitlyn DuRoss, and<br />
Rybicki closed the first quarter<br />
with a bucket inside <strong>of</strong>f another<br />
assist from Kaitlyn DuRoss.<br />
Buena scored 30 seconds into<br />
the second quarter, but that was<br />
all as <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> ran <strong>of</strong>f 18 unanswered<br />
points. .<br />
Lawlor and Larsen added four<br />
points each to that run, and<br />
Treen went on a tear with three<br />
straight steals and six- straight<br />
points to close the first half.<br />
Treen's points came on a coastto-coast<br />
breakaway, another fast<br />
break on a slick pass from<br />
Kaitlyn DuRoss, and a jumper <strong>of</strong>f<br />
another feed from Kaitlyn<br />
DuRoss.<br />
Holding a 33-6 lead at the half,<br />
Lawlor opened the third quarter<br />
with a jumper <strong>of</strong>f an assist from<br />
Jenny Williams and Rybicki<br />
added another trey <strong>of</strong>f another<br />
assist from Williams. ;<br />
Shannon Netherby came, <strong>of</strong>f the<br />
bench and picked up three quick<br />
rebounds, and then closed the<br />
quarter with a basket inside <strong>of</strong>f<br />
an incredible pass from Kaitlyn<br />
DuRoss.<br />
"Kaitlyn DuRoss did a great job<br />
getting the ball to the girls<br />
inside," Baruffi said, "She had a<br />
lot <strong>of</strong> nice assists, and Kristen<br />
Gibb also did a nice job <strong>of</strong> setting<br />
up other people."<br />
DuRoss had a game high <strong>of</strong> five<br />
assists, and Gibb had two more.<br />
"We've been getting better at<br />
handling the ball," Rybicki<br />

Raider boys, girls win 4x800 relays at Haverford<br />
By CHARLIE WOOD<br />
; <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
The winter track state relay<br />
championships are scheduled for<br />
this Saturday at Princeton, and<br />
last Friday, Jan. 10, <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>-<br />
High School's boys and girls each<br />
captured first place in their<br />
respective 4 x 800 relays at a<br />
meet at Haverford College.<br />
For the girls, sophomore Allie<br />
Moreland ran the fastest split in<br />
the 4 x 800 with junior Brenda<br />
Briney and freshman Colleen<br />
-.Spurlock running the opening<br />
Riegs, and freshman Brittany<br />
Sedberry on the anchor for a<br />
combined winning time <strong>of</strong><br />
10:21.7.<br />
Jim Dugan anchored the boys<br />
winning 4 x 800 team with a split<br />
<strong>of</strong> 2:06. Erik Geisinger, Mike<br />
Long and Brian McMahon ran<br />
the three opening legs.<br />
McMahon also took third place<br />
in the <strong>16</strong>00 meters with a time <strong>of</strong><br />
4:53.19.<br />
For the Lady Raiders, Sedberry<br />
took first place in the 3200<br />
meters with Briney second, and<br />
Allie Moreland took second in the<br />
<strong>16</strong>00.<br />
Sophomore Leslie Robinson set<br />
a new indoor track school record<br />
in the shot with a throw <strong>of</strong> 33 feet,<br />
five inches. The previous school<br />
record <strong>of</strong> 30 feet was set by Lora<br />
Stutzman in 1999.<br />
The school's outdoor record <strong>of</strong><br />
38-5 was set in 1992 by Ayanna<br />
Reed.<br />
Looking ahead to the state<br />
relays this weekend the bad news<br />
is that senior John Richardson<br />
has been sidelined with pneumonia,<br />
according to coach Bill<br />
Moreland. Richardson did not<br />

OUTDOORS<br />
Hunting, fishing decline;<br />
i-once there wasn't such a<br />
paranoia about guns<br />
A pattern has been evolving<br />
regarding the downslide in the<br />
numbers <strong>of</strong> future fishermen and<br />
hunters. License sales are up in<br />
| most states, but the rate <strong>of</strong><br />
^'increase is generally tabbed at<br />
about one half the percentage <strong>of</strong><br />
the population increase each<br />
year. Hunting and fishing participation<br />
is growing, but only about<br />
half as fast as needed just to, keep<br />
up with the population growth.<br />
Some may consider the decline a<br />
good thing. We have frequently<br />
heard expressed the thought that<br />
the fewer hunters and fishermen<br />
there are, the more room there<br />
will be for those who are left.<br />
h Lesser numbers may cut down<br />
competition for space, but as<br />
fewer hunters and fishermen<br />
ante up for licenses, there is less<br />
money for fish and game management<br />
and land<br />

when hunters and"<br />

' past few years<br />
have shown how<br />
vulnerable gun<br />
owners, hunters<br />
and fishermen<br />
are to attacks by<br />
the anti's\<br />
What causes the<br />
decline in the<br />
numbers <strong>of</strong> young outdoor enthusiasts?<br />
It's a simple question, but<br />
there is no simple answer.<br />
Times have changed. "Life is no<br />
f longer simple. Modern technolo-<br />
' gy has given us TV, video games<br />
and scores <strong>of</strong> other ways for<br />
youngsters to spend free time.<br />
Rural America is now urban<br />
America. Urban sprawl has taken<br />
away much opportunity for<br />
youngsters to enjoy the outdoors.<br />
School hours, because <strong>of</strong> regionalization,<br />
take kids away from<br />
home for longer periods, leaving<br />
I'little afternoon time. It used to be<br />
* a short walk home when school<br />
closed instead <strong>of</strong> a long timewasting<br />
ride on a bus. Longer<br />
afternoon hours at home after<br />
school meant more things to do<br />
under parental supervision and it<br />
meant' more play time outdoors.<br />
But there always seemed to be<br />
adult support for our outdoor<br />
play and above all adult supervision.<br />
As a youngster growing up in<br />
the '30s, I could walk the streets<br />
^in the small town where I lived<br />
with a .22 rifle, heading for the<br />
dump to plink at tin cans, or to<br />
the nearby farm where we could<br />
target practice. Come hunting<br />
season, a single barrel shotgun<br />
replaced the .22 and no one got<br />
upset when we kids headed for'<br />
the woods for squirrels or the<br />
fields for rabbits.<br />
Everyone in town knew every-<br />
Lene else, and before the first<br />
murmur <strong>of</strong> any transgression, the<br />
word would get back home,<br />
where we would face the wrath <strong>of</strong><br />
one parent or the other. There<br />
was respect for authority, and<br />
while we. were allowed a lot <strong>of</strong><br />
freedom <strong>of</strong> expression, there<br />
were hard-and-fast rules. Rule<br />
<strong>On</strong>e was violate them and suffer<br />
consequences.<br />
The local one-man police force<br />
operated a diner and would <strong>of</strong>ten<br />
answer calls in his cook's apron.<br />
|The kids all loved him, but none<br />
' dared cross him. He was the ultimate<br />
authority in town. We did<br />
not know what would happen if<br />
we got on his wrong side, but we<br />
knew it would be traumatic, swift<br />
and sure.<br />
As I recall, there was a lot <strong>of</strong><br />
muttering about the size <strong>of</strong> his<br />
shoes and what would happen if<br />
he decided to-administer justice<br />
I to our posteriors with them. That<br />
^he never once did to anyone mat-<br />
. tered little* We just knew if we<br />
crossed Sam by doing something<br />
wrong and he found out, we'd get<br />
punished. Right now. He may<br />
have ruled by fear, but his evenhandedness<br />
overshadowed the<br />
fright and instead, we came to<br />
love, respect and in many ways<br />
honor this disciplinarian. A Sam<br />
today would long since have been<br />
stripped <strong>of</strong> his duties and censured<br />
for his methods.<br />
But they worked.<br />
Guns did not create the paranoia<br />
they do today. Kids did not<br />
kill each other with guns and<br />
they did not take them to school.<br />
They were for practical use.<br />
They provided food for the table<br />
and were a source <strong>of</strong> recreation<br />
as we plinked away with .22<br />
shorts at targets. It was not a<br />
crime for a teenager to buy<br />
ammunition for target practice<br />
or for hunting,<br />
because that is<br />
what it was<br />
used for.<br />
Every kid car^<br />
ried a knife. No<br />
one cut people<br />
with them.<br />
Instead, knives<br />
carved sticks,<br />
cut initials into<br />
fence posts and<br />
pared apples.<br />
Teachers and<br />
parents knew<br />
we had knives,<br />
and there was no fear because we<br />
did.<br />
Today's culture creates problems<br />
as well. Single-parent families<br />
and households where both<br />
parents are working <strong>of</strong>ten leaves<br />
little time for them to direct<br />
youngsters into wholesome outdoor<br />
activity. Many <strong>of</strong> today's<br />
parents did not fish and hunt, so<br />
it is almost a given their kids will<br />
not be directed to activities <strong>of</strong><br />
which parents know little.<br />
In an effort to reach more<br />
youngsters, states set up special<br />
youth hunts and license-free<br />
family fishing days. Ducks<br />
Unlimited has created a<br />
Greenwing program with volunteers<br />
providing educational<br />
activities aimed at creating interest<br />
in outdoor sport. Other organizations<br />
recognize the need for<br />
getting kids involved and new<br />
programs are evolving. When<br />
they get <strong>of</strong>f the. ground, they<br />
work. '<br />
To aid the cause <strong>of</strong> working<br />
mothers and single mothers with<br />
kids, workshops are set up to<br />
educate Mom and the girls into<br />
the nuances <strong>of</strong> hunting, fishing<br />
and the outdoors. Hunter safety<br />
education, mandatory in all<br />
states, gives young hunters a<br />
good grounding in gun safety and<br />
basic hunting skills. '<br />
State fish and game commissions<br />
provide opportunities for<br />
youngsters to learn. Parents;<br />
clubs and organizations are<br />
needed to provide the volunteer<br />
base t$ make the programs work.<br />
Ways have to be found to filter<br />
information into schools where<br />
much <strong>of</strong> what youngsters learn is<br />
driven by anti-outdoors oriented<br />
agendas. If you doubt that, talk to<br />
kids. Look at what they are reading<br />
and watching on TV to see the<br />
subtle anti messages fed them<br />
daily. It means becoming more<br />
active individually.. Clubs must<br />
also create more youth and family<br />
oriented activities.<br />
It has to start somewhere. How<br />
long has it been since you took a<br />
kid fishing or hunting? Today is<br />
not too soon, if we are to have a<br />
tomorrow for our outdoor sports.<br />
A tremendous outdoor heritage<br />
helped shape America and it can<br />
only be handed down by those<br />
who are active and engaged. If<br />
we do not get to the youngsters<br />
soon, some day there will be no<br />
heritage to hand down and no one<br />
to hand it down to.<br />
run on Friday at Haverford.<br />
"We're hoping John will be<br />
ready this weekend," Moreland<br />
said. "We've had some excellent<br />
times in the sprint and distance<br />
medleys and he's the anchor for<br />
both."<br />
Richardson is also the indoor<br />
defending state champ in the<br />
<strong>16</strong>00 meters, and the state group<br />
championships are scheduled for<br />

Mainland boys hold <strong>of</strong>f Hammonton<br />
By ROB STACCH1N1<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
According to Whitey Haak, his<br />
boys' win over Hammonton Jan.<br />
7 didn't come easy. By halftime,<br />
the Hammonton boys (2-3) were<br />
clearly outplaying the Mustangs<br />
(5-4) and led the' game by four<br />
points. In the second half,<br />
Mainland was forced to look for<br />
strength <strong>of</strong>f their bench. They<br />
found it.<br />
The assistance came by way <strong>of</strong><br />
Todd Morey, Chad Meyers, and<br />
Bilty Care. Add that to some<br />
steadfast free throw shooting and<br />
there is a Mustang team that is<br />
starting <strong>of</strong>f strong hi the 2003<br />
season.<br />
From the opening tip-<strong>of</strong>f,<br />
Hammonton played better than<br />
their 2-3 record and showed<br />
more aggression out on the court.<br />
Their feistiness caught the<br />
Mustangs a little <strong>of</strong>f guard.<br />
"We expected it to be a pretty<br />
good game," said 6-2 forward<br />
Eric Smallwood. "Our intensity<br />
was down a little tonight. We<br />
needed to be more intense.<br />
Overall, this wasn't our best<br />
effort; we're capable <strong>of</strong> doing<br />
better."<br />
"I expected that they<br />
(Hammonton) play hard," said<br />
Haak, "but I didn't expect them<br />
to play as well as they did. In the<br />
first half, they played about as<br />
hard as they Could play. I thought<br />
they did a great job."<br />
Hammonton not only demonstrated<br />
inside prowess, but also<br />
the confidence to make the outside<br />
shot. The Mustangs found<br />
themselves uncharacteristically<br />
rushing shots and mis-timing<br />
passes. After finishing the first<br />
quarter at 15-15, Mainland soon<br />
saw the result <strong>of</strong> their errors in a<br />
27-23 score at halftime. At that<br />
point, it was obvious that<br />
Hammonton just wanted the<br />
game more. " : "•''•"'<br />
At- -ithe' : halftime - buzzerj;<br />
Hammohton's home crowd let<br />
them know what a fine job" they<br />
did in shutting Mainland down.<br />
However, there was still another<br />
half to be played.<br />
"I told the kids that we were<br />
going out there in the second half<br />
and playing them man-to-man,"<br />
Haak said. "I thought we were<br />
going to find out one way or<br />
another if we were better than<br />
them. If we couldn't beat them by<br />
more than four points playing<br />
man-to-man, we didn't deserve to<br />
win. Hammonton only scored 11<br />
points hi the seeond half; obviously<br />
our kids responded."<br />
Coming out in the third quarter,<br />
Mainland felt the absence <strong>of</strong><br />
starter Dan Cappelluti. Without<br />
their speedy guard, the Mustangs<br />
were unable to score for the first<br />
two and a half minutes. However,<br />
Eric Smallwood broke their<br />
slump with a lay-up and helped<br />
his team outscore Hammonton 9-<br />
7 by the end <strong>of</strong> the quarter. •<br />
"We settled down and started<br />
playing our game," added<br />
Smallwood. "We stopped doing<br />
the things they were trying to<br />
make us do out there. In the first<br />
half, we were rushing and not<br />
really getting into our <strong>of</strong>fense.<br />
After a while, we relaxed a little<br />
bit and got our <strong>of</strong>fense going."<br />
By the fourth quarter, Mainland<br />
looked like a completely different<br />
basketball-team. Their diligent<br />
passing forced Hammonton to<br />
spread out their. defense and<br />
allow better scoring opportunities.<br />
"I think our press was the difference,"<br />
Smallwood said about .<br />
Mainland's success in the second<br />
half. "Our press looked good<br />
against other teams and it looked<br />
good tonight. We were able to get<br />
some'turnovers out <strong>of</strong> it and I<br />
think that gave us the advantage."<br />
The Mustang head coach<br />
agreed with his starting forward.<br />
Although his boys drastically<br />
outscored Hammonton in the<br />
' fourth quarter, they also held<br />
Robert J. Gonzalez/<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> bentinel<br />
Mainland's Chad Meyers (No. 24) looks to pass at the top <strong>of</strong> the key in last<br />
week's game against Hammonton. Meyers was one <strong>of</strong> the key players <strong>of</strong>f<br />
the bench for the Mustangs in the game.<br />
their opponent to four points in<br />
that same period.<br />
"We were more focused and<br />
played harder defensively," Haak<br />
said.<br />
After all was said and done,<br />
Haak credited the victory to the<br />
performance <strong>of</strong> certain individuals.<br />
He felt his bench was the<br />
extra advantage they needed in<br />
such a close-knit battle.<br />
"I thought Billy Care gave us a<br />
great effort <strong>of</strong>f the bench," said<br />
Haak. "He is really developing<br />
and is going to be a good ball<br />
player. Chad Meyers gave us a<br />
really good defensive effort.<br />
Todd Morey came in for a few<br />
minutes and handled the ball<br />
well. Those guys who came <strong>of</strong>f<br />
the bench really did a good job<br />
for us and helped keep us in the<br />
game.<br />
After their big win at<br />
Hammonton, Mainland went on<br />
to win at Vineland by the score <strong>of</strong><br />
50-38. Despite going 2-0 on the<br />
road, the Mustangs dropped their<br />
fourth loss <strong>of</strong> the season to<br />

Martin Luther King Day<br />
By POOR RICHARD<br />
Martin Luther King Jr. is famous for his actions <strong>of</strong> non-violence in<br />
the cause <strong>of</strong> racial justice.<br />
Far less remembered is bis application <strong>of</strong> non-violent principles to<br />
conflicts among nations. In the last years <strong>of</strong> his life Dr. King <strong>of</strong>ten<br />
protested the Vietnam War and worked for peace.<br />
During this holiday weekend in honor <strong>of</strong> his birth, let us reflect on<br />
this truth so well taught by Martin Luther King:<br />
Without peace there is no justice -<br />
And without justice there is no peace.<br />
Richard C. Wingate<br />
lighthouse Shore Ministries<br />
Spindrift<br />
By Joe Gilbert<br />
No sacrifice too great<br />
It occurred in a church in the<br />
heartland <strong>of</strong> America. After the<br />
Sunday evening hymns, the pastor<br />
<strong>of</strong> the church slowly stood up,<br />
walked over to the pulpit and,<br />
before he gave his sermon for the<br />
evening, briefly introduced a<br />
guest minister who was present<br />
that evening.. In the introduction,<br />
the pastor told the congregation<br />
that the guest minister was one <strong>of</strong><br />
his dearest childhood friends and<br />
that he wished him to take a few<br />
moments to greet those present<br />
and share whatever he felt would<br />
be appropriate for the service.<br />
With that, an elderly man<br />
stepped up to the pulpit and<br />
began to speak. He began, "A<br />
father, his son and a friend <strong>of</strong> his<br />
son were sailing <strong>of</strong>f the Pacific<br />
Coast," he began, "when a fast<br />
approaching storm blocked any<br />
attempt to get back to the shore.<br />
The waves were so high that even<br />
though the father was an experienced<br />
sailor, he could not keep<br />
the boat upright and the three<br />
were swept into the ocean as the<br />
boat capsized."<br />
The elderly man hesitated for<br />
just a moment, making eye contact<br />
with two teenagers who<br />
were, for the first time since the<br />
service began, looking somewhat<br />
interested" in his story.<br />
•?The mioigtex continued..with his<br />
story. "Grabbing a rescue line,<br />
the father had to make the most<br />
excruciating decision <strong>of</strong> his life<br />
... to which boy would he throw<br />
the other end <strong>of</strong> the life line? He<br />
had but seconds to make the<br />
decision. The father knew that<br />
his son was a Christian and he<br />
also definitely knew that his son's<br />
friend was not. The agony <strong>of</strong> his<br />
decision could not be matched by<br />
the torrent <strong>of</strong> the waves.<br />
As the father yelled out, "I love<br />
you, son!" he threw out the lifeline<br />
to his son's friend.<br />
By the time the father had<br />
pulled the friend back to the capsized<br />
boat, his son had disappeared<br />
beneath the raging<br />
swells; his body was never recovered."<br />
By this time, the two teenagers<br />
were sitting up straight in the<br />
pew, anxiously waiting for the<br />
next words to come out <strong>of</strong> the elderly<br />
minister's mouth. "The<br />
father," he continued, "knew his<br />
son would step into eternity with<br />
Jesus; he could not bear the<br />
thought <strong>of</strong> his son's friend' stepr<br />
ping into an eternity without<br />
Jesus. Therefore, he sacrificed<br />
his son to save the son's friend.<br />
So great is the love <strong>of</strong> God that<br />
He did the same for us. Our<br />
Heavenly Father sacrificed His<br />
only Begotten Son that we could<br />
be saved. I urge you to accept His<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer to rescue you and to take<br />
hold <strong>of</strong> the lifeline He is throwing<br />
out to you in this service."<br />
With that, the elderly man<br />
turned and sat down in the pew<br />
as silence filled the sanctuary;<br />
The pastor again walked slowly<br />
to the pulpit and delivered a brief<br />
sermon, with an invitation at the<br />
end <strong>of</strong> the service. No one<br />
responded to the appeal.<br />

Within minutes after the service<br />
ended, the two teenagers<br />
were at the elderly man's side.<br />
"That was a nice, story," politely<br />
stated one <strong>of</strong> the boys, "but I<br />
don't think it was very realistic<br />
for a father to give up his only<br />
son's life in the hope that the<br />
other boy would eventually<br />
become a Christian."<br />
"Well, you've got a point there,"<br />
the man replied, glancing down<br />
at his worn bible. A big smile<br />
broadened his face and he once<br />
again looked up at the boys and<br />
said, "It sure isn't very realistic,<br />
is it? But I'm standing here today<br />
to tell you that story gives me a<br />
glimpse <strong>of</strong> what it must have<br />
been like for God to give up His<br />
Son for me. You see, I was that<br />
father and your pastor was my<br />
son's friend."<br />
Just something, to ponder ...<br />
something to pray about.<br />

UNDERSTANDING<br />
EVERYTHING ISN'T NECESSARY<br />
There are so many things<br />
all around us that we may<br />
not understand. For<br />
example, it may be difficult<br />
to understand how radio<br />
waves or television pictures<br />
can go through the air, or<br />
how we can be anywhere in<br />
the world and withdraw<br />
money from our local bank<br />
account. We may not understand<br />
how everything works,<br />
we just know that it does. We<br />
don't usually ponder or worry<br />
about how various things<br />
happen, we just expect that<br />
whenever we turn on our<br />
television or use our bank<br />
cards, they will work. There may be many things about our<br />
religious beliefs or the Bible that we do not understand. We just<br />
know that the Bible is God's word, and we believe that God is<br />
faithful to His word. Trusting in God develops faith, and faith<br />
brings love. God is love, and although we may not understand<br />
everything around us, our Heavenly Father has everything under<br />
control<br />
To be conscious that you are ignorant is<br />
a great step to knowledge.<br />
- Benjamin Disraeli<br />
To be wise you must first have reverence for'the Lord.<br />
If you know the Holy <strong>On</strong>e, you have understanding.<br />

PUBLIC NOTICE<br />
PLEASE be advised that on<br />
Wednesday, January 29, 2003 at<br />
7:00 p.m. a hearing will be held<br />
before the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Zoning Board<br />
<strong>of</strong> Adjustment. The hearing will be<br />
held in the Municipal Court Building,<br />
821 Central Avenue, <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>,<br />
New Jersey. The applicant proposes<br />
to construct a new two-story, two-<br />
family dwelling at 917 Bay Avenue,<br />
and more commonly known as Lot<br />
11; Block 908 on the current <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> tax map.<br />
Please be advised that the refer-<br />
enced site is located within the OB-<br />
Office and Bank Zone.<br />
Since two-family dwellings are not a<br />
permitted use, the applicant shall<br />
seek a use variance from the Zoning<br />
Board <strong>of</strong> Adjustment. The applicant<br />
shall also seek a front yard set back<br />
variance wherein the proposed build-<br />
ing is located 14.58' from the Bay<br />
Avenue right-<strong>of</strong>-way line as com-<br />
pared to the 30.0' required front yard<br />
set back. The applicant shall also<br />
seek side yard set back variances so<br />
as to allow a 3.0' side yard at a bay<br />
window on the northeasterly side <strong>of</strong><br />
the structure and to allow a 3.<strong>16</strong>' set<br />
back for a stair tower on the south-<br />
westerly side <strong>of</strong> the structure. The<br />
proposed set backs are compared to<br />
the required 4.0' set back. As a result<br />
<strong>of</strong> the requested reduced set back at<br />
the bay window and stair tower on<br />
the structure, the applicant will pro-<br />
vide only 6.<strong>16</strong>' aggregate side, yard<br />
set back at that location, however the<br />
majority <strong>of</strong> the structure will comply<br />
with ths 8.0' aggregate side yard set<br />
back requirement. The applicant,<br />
however, shall seek an aggregate<br />
side yard set back variance. The<br />
applicant proposes a structure which<br />
will have its ro<strong>of</strong> peak located 31.45"<br />
above the centerline roadway eleva-<br />
tion.<br />
While the structure will comply with<br />
the allowable building heights within<br />
the neighboring residential zone, the<br />
allowable building height wiihin the<br />
Office and Bank Zone is 27.0'.<br />
Accordingly, the applicant shall seek<br />
a building height variance. So long<br />
as the applicant is aware, only the<br />
variances listed above are required<br />
for the project.<br />
Should !he Board determine that<br />
additional variances and design<br />
waivers are required, the applicant<br />
shall seek those variances and/or<br />
design waivers during the course <strong>of</strong><br />
the hearing. Maps and other docu-<br />
.merits related to this matter will be<br />
available ion inspection during nor-<br />
mal working hours in the <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Magton, Inc., owner, has made appli-<br />
cation to the Zoning Board <strong>of</strong><br />
Adjustment <strong>of</strong> the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
for use variance relief, bulk variance<br />
relief and site plan approval to permit<br />
the applicant to demolish an existing<br />
motel building at 1001 Atlantic<br />
Avenue, Lot 1, Block 1001, <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, County <strong>of</strong> Cape May and<br />
State <strong>of</strong> New Jersey, in order to<br />
replace it with a new 12 unit<br />
motel/hotel building.<br />
As far as the owner/applicant is<br />
aware, it requires use variance<br />
approval because two proposed<br />
handicapped accessible units in the<br />
new building are slightly in excess <strong>of</strong><br />
500sf, the required maximum for<br />
hotel/motel units, and bulk variance<br />
relief is required for lot width and<br />
area, as well as front yard setback,<br />
side yard setback and rear yard set-<br />
back. Preliminary and final site plan<br />
approval is also being sought This<br />
proposal will remove an outdated,<br />
small, motel building currently asso-<br />
ciated with the Impala Motel, in order<br />
to replace it with what the<br />
owner/applicant perceives as a sig-<br />
nificantly more attractive and aes-<br />
thetically pleasing building which will _<br />
provide more attractive and servicea-<br />
ble transient units to the Hotel/Motel<br />
Zone, the first significant new con-<br />
struction <strong>of</strong> hotel/motel units <strong>of</strong> that<br />
character in that zone in many years.<br />
In the event the Zoning Board <strong>of</strong><br />
Adjustment should determine during<br />
its review that any other variances<br />
and/or waivers are required, howev-<br />
er, the applicant would seek those<br />
variances and/or waivers at the time<br />

but that meant that freshman<br />

had to bump to 140 where helost<br />
by pin as Vineland tied the score,<br />

Raiders fall to Lower Cape May, win two on road<br />
Continued from page Bl<br />
Wright took a steal all the wayback<br />
for two more points.<br />
Fighting fire with fire, <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> tried to run against Lower's<br />
press, and the press also began to<br />
take a toll as both Wright and<br />
Palmer were in foul trouble.<br />
Ruffing opened the fourth quarter<br />
with four points to give Lower<br />
a 40-31 lead, and <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>fought<br />
back as Martin<br />
Markowski and Tim Brunetti<br />
both scored <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong>fensive<br />
rebounds. Rolls scored inside <strong>of</strong>f<br />
an assist from Brunetti, and<br />
added a free throw to cut the lead<br />
to 40-36 with 4:26 left in the<br />
game.<br />
The intensity level was sky high<br />
now, and both teams had trouble<br />
taking care <strong>of</strong> the ball.<br />
"I don't think Coach Bruno or<br />
myself were particularly happy<br />
with the play on the floor,"<br />
Holden said. "Both teams got<br />
very sloppy at times. It wasn't<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the best played games<br />
we've had."<br />
Bruno was in accord.<br />
"It was a high intensity kind <strong>of</strong><br />
game, and it was really our first<br />
one <strong>of</strong> that nature," Bruno said.<br />
"These are the kinds <strong>of</strong> games<br />
where you hope you learn."<br />
Lower dropped back into a<br />

Freshman Sarah Cohen leads Mainland<br />
girls over Vineland with 19 points<br />
By ROB STACCHINI<br />
<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Sentinel<br />
When the Vineland girls came<br />
to Mainland Regional last<br />
Thursday night, they could not<br />
foresee their frustration in the<br />
near future. Even worse, they did<br />
not know that the frustration<br />
would come in the form <strong>of</strong> a 5' 1"<br />
freshman by the name <strong>of</strong> Sarah<br />
Cohen.<br />
The Mustang point guard is the<br />
newest protege in a long line <strong>of</strong><br />
point guards that have come out<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Mainland girls basketball<br />
program, the latest having been<br />
Shaiiiie McLaughlin, who is now<br />
pla'ying at LaSalle.<br />
Cohen showed her foes from<br />
Vineland that age really is only a<br />
number when she scored 19<br />
points, a career high. As a team,<br />
the Lady 'Stangs controlled the<br />
boards and out-shot their opponent<br />
from the free throw line en<br />
route to a 56-38 win.<br />
"I thought we came out with a<br />
lot <strong>of</strong> intensity," Geisinger said,<br />
describing how his girls were<br />
able to come up with the comfortable<br />
win. "We really put a lot <strong>of</strong><br />
pressure on them. We don't try to<br />
do a lot <strong>of</strong> fancy things; we just<br />
try to apply defensive pressure.<br />
Tonieht it was snrwv»ccfiil "<br />
Successful indeed. The<br />
Mainland girls were able to put<br />
up 15 points in the first quarter<br />
while holding Vineland to only<br />
sis points. Alyssa Strumolo<br />
pitched in five points while<br />
Cohen got warmed up with four<br />
<strong>of</strong> her own in the period.<br />
"I was trying tb work at the<br />
team game tonight," the modest<br />
Cohen commented. "If I had the<br />
chance to take the.shot, I did."<br />
Although both teams came into<br />
the game with similar records, it<br />
was obvious who held the reins.<br />
Mainland continued to outscore<br />
their opponent in the second half<br />
by putting up another 17 points<br />
while Vineland could muster only -<br />
nine. The Scoreboard at halftime<br />
read 32-15, Mainland's favor.<br />
"We knew they were very<br />
i 'nig inside," the Mustang head<br />
' i h said <strong>of</strong> his opponents. "We<br />
i : able to match up with them<br />
I i»ii!e. We took that away and so<br />
II i were left to work on our<br />
ii i ds. I thought our forwards<br />
ilnl a really good job on the<br />
i le, Katie (Komo), Emily<br />
11 •! Fe), and the help we had <strong>of</strong>f<br />
i 1 liench."<br />
I >c spite their expectations,<br />
* I i iland, with the help <strong>of</strong> Wolfe<br />
i I Komo, dominated the boards.<br />
Their timely passing and precise<br />
ball handling wore Vineland<br />
down. The Fighting Clan seemed<br />
outmatched on the court.<br />
"We thought they were going to<br />
be a tough team," said Cohen.<br />
"Also, we knew they would be<br />
aggressive and physical, especially<br />
on the boards and inside."<br />
"I basically mentioned two<br />
things," Geisinger said about his<br />
halftime talk with the girls. "<strong>On</strong>e,<br />
come out with the same intensity<br />
as the first half; two, please make<br />
sure that you look for pressure. I<br />
expected them to come at us with<br />
something different. As it turned<br />
out, they came out man-to-man<br />
and we were prepared."<br />
The Lady 'Stangs not only<br />
monopolized the boards and field<br />
goal percentage, they also held<br />
their own at the free throw line.<br />
They hit 50. percent from the line<br />
while Vineland lingered at a dismal<br />
22 percent.<br />
Mainland appeared superior to<br />
Vineland in every aspect <strong>of</strong> the<br />
game. Even though it is still<br />
early in the season, play<strong>of</strong>f talk<br />
has already started in the<br />
Mainland bleachers.<br />
"Well, we have made it 18 years<br />
in a row," Geisinger said while<br />
smiling. "That's our only goal,<br />
right now. We have two more<br />
wins to go on that but certainly<br />
this was one that could have went<br />
either way so that was a good one<br />
•for us."<br />
The young Sarah Cohen is<br />
enjoying her first year in varsity<br />
basketball. While most girls her<br />
age are still playing freshman<br />
ball, she is starting for a top<br />
notch varsity program and loving<br />
it. . - . " • . •<br />
"I think we're starting to gel,"<br />
Cohen said about her team. "We<br />
have a couple girls injured. The<br />
fact that we can win two without<br />
a starter and one <strong>of</strong> our stronger<br />
bench girls really says something<br />
about our team and how strong<br />
we are."<br />
Last Monday night, the<br />
Mainland girls traveled to<br />
Oakcrest for an inter-conference<br />
battle. Unfortunately, the Lady<br />
'Stangs dropped a heart breaker<br />
by the score <strong>of</strong> 32-31.<br />

OCHS Welcomes Dr. Savio<br />
OCHS is proud to<br />
welcome Dr. Savio to its teaching<br />
staff. Dr. Savio has an interesting<br />
and extensive background. He<br />
graduated from Rutgers University<br />
with degrees in Spanish and<br />

"the analyst ranks <strong>of</strong> Atlantic<br />
Electric (now Conectiv). There, he<br />
became the youngest senior<br />
analyst. In 1995 the company was<br />
forced to downsize; as a result Dr.<br />
Savio resigned his position and<br />
decided to teach. This decision was<br />
influenced by his wife, who was<br />
receiving her Special Ed degree<br />
from Rowan, and then began<br />
teaching at Mainland<br />

Dr. Savio was then a<br />
technology coordinator at<br />
Hamilton Township, where he was<br />
also involved in the ETTC grant<br />

Lord <strong>of</strong> the Rings: A Towering Film<br />
The Lord <strong>of</strong> the Rings:<br />
The Two Towers (TTT) is the<br />
second installment <strong>of</strong> the Lord <strong>of</strong><br />
the i?£ngy trilogyby J.R.R. Tolkien,<br />
and picks up where Fellowship <strong>of</strong><br />
the Ring left <strong>of</strong>f. Frodo and Sam<br />
arestilltryingtogetto Mordor, and<br />
the three remaining members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
fellowship (Gimli the dwarf, Legolas<br />
the elf, and Aragorn the ranger), are<br />
chasing the ores who took the<br />
hobbits Merry and Pippin. Frodo<br />
and Sam capture Gollum, a<br />
schizophrenic creature following<br />
them. They force him to lead them<br />
toMordor. Gollum is theprevions<br />
owner <strong>of</strong> the ring, and calls it his<br />
"precious." Meanwhile, Merry and<br />
Pippin escape the ores, and head<br />
into a nearby forest. There they<br />
meetTreebeard, an Ent, or shepherd<br />
<strong>of</strong> the trees. They convince him<br />
and the other Ents to attack<br />
Saraman's fortress at Isengard,<br />
because their forests are being cut<br />
down. At the same time, Aragorrt,<br />
Gimli, and Legolas go to King<br />
Theoden after looking for Merry<br />
and Pippin. They join him and his<br />
army at Helm's Deep, and fight for<br />
survival against ten thousand ores.<br />
The Two Towers is an<br />
excellentniovie,butdoesn'tfollow<br />
the book closely. The scenes flick<br />
from one part to another, which<br />
becomes confusing. J.R.R.<br />
Tolkien's book has the first half<br />
devoted to Aragorn, Gimii, and<br />
Legolas's journey; the second half<br />
talks about Frodo and Sam's<br />
journey to Mordor to destroy the<br />
<strong>On</strong>e Ring <strong>of</strong> Sauronr Also, if you<br />
did not read the book, you might<br />
confuse Saruman and Sauron, two<br />
<strong>of</strong> the bad guys. Gimli was changed<br />
into a dwarf who made jokes the<br />
whole movie, even in important<br />
battle scenes. The creators <strong>of</strong> the<br />
movie also added parts, like a scene<br />
where Frodo and Sam fight, and<br />
anotherwhere elves comehelp fight<br />
for Helm's Deepr when they are<br />

1.Jeff Buckley Grace- Simply an<br />
astoundingfybeautifulalbum. The only<br />
imperfection that I can find is the feet<br />
that my copy skips on song number<br />
seven, and thatcan be fixed. I've talked<br />
enough about this record in the past,<br />
so we'll moveon.<br />
2.Ryan Adams Gold- A rather new<br />
recotd. Beautiful acoustic strumming<br />
with low-fi, scratchy vocals on top.<br />
Ryan Adans can make you cry with<br />
the best <strong>of</strong> them, and when he rocks,<br />
he really rocks. Of course, not to be<br />
confused with ftyan Adams.<br />
S.WSco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot- WiJco<br />
started out in 1995 as a band in the<br />

from the ashes <strong>of</strong> Uncle Tupelo. By<br />
this release in 2QG!Ttheyhadmoved so<br />
faraway from thatyou have to wonder<br />
if it's the same band. This is another<br />

supposed to be a thousand miles<br />
away. The biggest mistake not<br />
contained in the book was when<br />
Frodo almost gives the ring to a<br />
Nazgul, a former king turned<br />
Ringwraith. AsGandalfsaid, the<br />
only way for Frodo to succeed in<br />
destroying the ring is if Sauron<br />
thinks it is still lost. In the movie,<br />
Frodo stands right in front <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Nazgul and waves the ring at it. If<br />
Sauron doesn't know about the<br />
ring now, I'll be really surprised.<br />
Despite the flaws, TTT<br />
has some incredible scenes. The<br />
computer"created battle at Helm's<br />
Deep was really cool, with<br />
thousands <strong>of</strong> ore soldiers<br />
marching up to the walls <strong>of</strong> a fort<br />
dug into the mountain. Also, the<br />
scene where Gollum is talking to<br />
himself is a strong part <strong>of</strong> the<br />
movie. The camera switches<br />
views between his dual<br />
personalities, and the computergenerated<br />
creature is very lifelike.<br />

8.INXS Kick-Who doesn't have a<br />
s<strong>of</strong>t spot for 80's pop? This is the<br />
band that came up with such<br />
memorable songs as "New<br />

amazingrecord,<br />

scene from the early 90*s. Mike<br />

He was then hired as a<br />
business administrator for Egg<br />
Harbor <strong>City</strong> in February 1999.Unfortunately<br />
the budget was defaulted<br />
after 2 l A years and the<br />
Board cut his position in half to a<br />
part-time administrative position.<br />
In 2001 he resigned, and was hired<br />
later that year by the Salem Country<br />
Vocational district. After completing<br />
a doctorate in educational<br />
leadership at Rowan, he returned<br />
to teaching.<br />
<strong>On</strong>e <strong>of</strong> Dr. Savio's goals<br />
is to stay teaching, and remain at<br />
OCHS while he is needed. He<br />
sincerely believes that leadership<br />
begins in the classroom, and<br />
teaching is the best way to<br />
understand leadership. He hopes<br />
to help students learn, and to<br />
inspire them to be good students<br />
while remaining an ally. He is<br />
dedicated to the philosophy <strong>of</strong><br />
resolving problems with students.<br />
He also attempts to assist to their<br />
needs before resorting to other<br />
disciplinary measures, such as<br />
parent contact. Dr. Savio hopes to<br />
be teaching for many years. -<br />

The sound in the movie<br />
is also very good. When Aragorn<br />
entersthe king's chamber, you hear<br />
the door open from the back <strong>of</strong> the<br />
theater, then the camera pans as the<br />
sound moves to the side and then<br />
the front. The camera and sound<br />
stops on Aragorn for a powerful<br />
moment. In the caves behind<br />
Helm's Deep, you hear children<br />
talking and crying from ail sides as<br />
you watch women and children<br />
crouching or leaning against the<br />
walls.<br />
The Two Towers is an<br />
excellent movie. Vd recommend<br />
it to anyone, but read the book<br />
first. It will make much more<br />
sense, and you will get a lot more<br />
out <strong>of</strong> it. Even with some <strong>of</strong> the<br />
flaws, it is a very enjoyable<br />
movie. It's a little long at almost<br />
three hours and ends suddenly<br />
like the first one, but if you enjoy<br />
this type <strong>of</strong> movie, go see it<br />
twice. -Aiex Weisbera<br />

New Year in<br />
2003.<br />
Humor With Moo Man<br />
Auld Lang Whine<br />
Hiya! I've been away for<br />
awhile, taking some time <strong>of</strong>f to<br />
collect my thoughts for the new<br />
year ahead. 2003... wow. A truly<br />
momentous year if ever there was<br />
one. A typical question asked <strong>of</strong><br />
me around this time concerns what<br />
resolutions I have made. I'm the<br />
wrong person to ask if you want<br />
to hear wholesome, humanitarian<br />
resolutions, tn fact, I don'tliketo<br />
make resolutions at all. Ispentthe<br />
majority <strong>of</strong> 2002 as an apathetic<br />
slob, so why should I suddenly<br />
change because a flashing ball<br />
drops in Times Square? Well, I'm<br />
exaggerating again. I wasn't<br />
apathetic- just a slob. Anyway,<br />
when folks come up to me<br />
demanding to know what my<br />
resolutions are, I have some fun<br />
with'em. I tell them that instead <strong>of</strong><br />
losing weight, I want to gain 75<br />
pounds in three months. Instead<br />
<strong>of</strong> becoming more organized, I will<br />
purposefully be late for every<br />
engagement, lose things like my<br />
car, and wear clothing straight from<br />
the laundry basket I always say<br />
thatthere'snothinglikewearinga<br />
shirt mired with sweat and dirt<br />
stains. Maybe I'm being cynical<br />
again, but why do we stress<br />
changing our ways now? To me,<br />
March 2 or May 17 are just as good<br />
dates as any other. <strong>On</strong> top <strong>of</strong> all<br />
this, why do we humans<br />
continually stress self-<br />
improvement? Weknowthatabout<br />
five people in the total U.S.<br />
population actually have the<br />
integrity and will power to follow<br />
through with theirresolutions. It's<br />
like Tyler Burden says in the<br />
prophetic and apocalyptic movie<br />
Fight Club: "self improvement... is<br />
self-destruction."<br />
<strong>On</strong> the business <strong>of</strong> the<br />
New Year's celebration, why, oh<br />
why, is Dick Clark hanging on to<br />
his job like the Pope? We see the<br />
man onceayearatNew Year's, while<br />
he spends the spring, summer, and<br />
fall in his crypt (True Fact: Dick<br />
Clarkdiedin 1964). Theman'sbeen<br />
doing the New Year's celebration<br />
bit since it was broadcast by smoke<br />
signals; he's old enough to be<br />
Father Time himself! Time to hang<br />
up the microphone, Dick.<br />
Despite these grievances,<br />
I don't hate New Year's. Its just<br />
sort <strong>of</strong> anticlimactic. From fall on<br />
we wait for the new year, entering<br />
the holiday season foil <strong>of</strong> hope and<br />
joy. We survive Thanksgiving and<br />
Christmas, and when we finally<br />
reach the Big "Night, we raise our<br />
glasses, count down to zero, and<br />
yell "HAPPYNEW YEAR!" loud<br />
enough to raise Julius Caesar's<br />
corpse. This is when you look<br />
around for someone to share the<br />
moment with, butto no avail. That's<br />
because everyone is already<br />
asleep. Oh well; mere's always next<br />
year.<br />
OCHS Censorship Survey<br />
A recent conflict has<br />
erupted in this country this past<br />
season; two <strong>of</strong> the major television<br />
companies, CBS and ABC, aired<br />
very controversial programs. CBS<br />
aired the 2002 Victoria's Secret<br />
Fashion Show, and ABC aired a<br />
popular reality (or what they call<br />
reality) show, The Bachelor. Many<br />
activists condemned the shows<br />
saying they degraded and<br />
objectified women. People<br />
complained that these shows were<br />
nothing but smut and insulted the<br />
intelligence <strong>of</strong> this entire country,<br />
and many speculated that this<br />
could be the demise <strong>of</strong> dignity on<br />
American television. Which brings<br />
me to my poll question <strong>of</strong> the week:<br />
I asked students at OCHS if they<br />
thought TV and radio should be<br />
censored.<br />
At first the numbers were<br />
split right down the middle; after<br />
ten students were polled, there<br />
were five in favor <strong>of</strong> censorship,<br />
and five against it. The people<br />
most in favor <strong>of</strong> censorship were<br />
females in the 11* grade. The main<br />
argument <strong>of</strong> this group was that<br />
there were too many<br />
impressionable young minds that<br />
watch TV, and if these children<br />
were left unsupervised by parents,<br />
they would definitely be seeing and<br />
hearing things they shouldn't be.<br />
They also seemed concerned that<br />
if there was no censorship,<br />
television and radio might become<br />
too vulgar to handle. "If we don't<br />
regulate the standards, TV would<br />
probably be unbearable to watch,"<br />
said RaphaelaDiClemente, a junior.<br />
By the end <strong>of</strong> the threeday<br />
survey, after polling 25<br />
students, freedom prevailed with<br />
the majority in favor <strong>of</strong> abandoning<br />
censorship in TV and radio. The<br />
anti-censorship voters were mainly<br />
male, and answered quickly with<br />
confidence in their voices. When<br />
met with the argument that young<br />
kids could be exposed to unfiltered<br />
television and radio, almost all<br />
students had the same answer:<br />
parents should be fully aware <strong>of</strong><br />
what their kids are tuned into.<br />
"Parents should raise their kids, not<br />
TV," said John Wallace.<br />
According to this poll, if<br />
it were up to the students <strong>of</strong> OCHS,<br />
sex, violence, and foul language<br />
would exist freely on TV and radio.<br />

A Taste Of Things To Come<br />
The pressing question <strong>of</strong><br />
college plagues themind <strong>of</strong> most high<br />
school senior. Many look at college<br />
as a welcome means <strong>of</strong> escape, while<br />
others view the transition with great<br />
trepidation and fear. Where can we<br />
turn for answers to the dire questions<br />
facing us, such as. "Is college food<br />
any good, or will we starve?"<br />
Fortunately for us, an<br />
assembly was put together on<br />
January 3 with the sole purpose <strong>of</strong><br />
answering these questions. More<br />
than 20 returning OCHS students<br />
spoke to the college hopefuls <strong>of</strong> the<br />
2003 class. The college freshman<br />
explained meal plans and housing<br />
arrangements for higher learning<br />
ranging in area to Oklahoma. They<br />
also answered queries concerning<br />
Internet use and the importance <strong>of</strong><br />
makingfriends.<br />
All the first semester<br />
college freshman veterans<br />
Pressed the importance <strong>of</strong> time<br />
management. "No one is riding<br />
you like in high school, you have<br />
no one to answer to with grades,"<br />
they explained. Apparently<br />
remaining attentive to school<br />
work was the hardest part <strong>of</strong> the<br />
transition to college.<br />
Seniors left the assembly<br />
with a bit <strong>of</strong> the trepidation<br />
removed and a great sense <strong>of</strong><br />
oncoming freedom taking its place.<br />
-Jennifer Ralston<br />
(L to R): OCHS Graduates Kasha Preston. Mike Barnes.<br />
Matt Speed, and Kyle Lipke all returned to discuss their<br />
college experiences.

The degree to which the high school experience is both enjoyable and pr<strong>of</strong>itable is directly related<br />
to the amount <strong>of</strong> planning devoted to the selection <strong>of</strong> program and courses. The pattern <strong>of</strong><br />
study pursued will dictate the opportunities available to students upon graduation. Students<br />
should begin by analyzing their strengths, weaknesses, aspirations, interests, and possible career<br />
goals. This is a difficult task, but students can lake heart in the fact they do not have to make this<br />
analysis on their own. The selection <strong>of</strong> a program <strong>of</strong> study should involve the student, parents,<br />
teachers and counselors. Parents and students are encouraged to lean on the pr<strong>of</strong>essional educators<br />
at their disposal to provide advice based on the wealth <strong>of</strong> information and experience to<br />
which they have access. '<br />
