Assemblyman Bob Smith has announced that South Plainfield has qualified for a new state loan program that will provide money for the repair o f aging school buildings and the construction o f new facilities.
“W hile other states have cut aid for building and repairing schools, we have been able to make unprecedented increases in N ew Jersey so that all o f our children will have a chance to get a good education.“ Mr. Smith said
“T h ese loans are a further illustration o f m y commitment to improving our schools while simultaneously attempting to ease the tax burdens o f local taxpayers." he added
Mr. Smith said the new program, called N ew Jersey W O R KS for Schools, will make $250 million available for school improvement projects through the state. The program was formally announced by Governor Jim Florio in January.
H e said he has received assurances to m the state Economic Development Authority, which will oversee the program, that the school board in South Plainfield
will qualify for a share o f the loan monies.
Mr. Smith explained that the EDA has yet to determine exactly haw much the borough will receive.
According to Mr. Smith, he has

been informed that the school district has received assurances from the E D A that the exact amount will be finalized with the next feu weeks and the ground breaking for school improvement projects coukl begun as early as the summer.
South Plainfield has applied for $694,725, which is also the total cost o f their project with an estimated ground breaking date o f
lew-interest loans to cover up to 50 percent o f the costs o f renovating, repairing, or altering existing buildings, or converting existing structures for instruebona] purposes.
The Small Projects Loan Fund , which will provide $100 m illion in market rate loans to school districts to finance up to 75 percent o f the cost o f projects whose total costs do not exceed $5 million.
The Safe Schools Loan Fund, which will provide $25 million in low-interest loans to cover up to 50 percent o f the total cost o f projects needed to comply with state health and safety code requirements.
In addition to the $250 million N ew Jersey W O R KS programs, the state has designated $50 million in grants to help 30 so-called special needs school districts. This money w ill be allocated separately by the Department o f Education.
T o create the school facilities loan program. Governor Florio’s administration utilized a variety o f trust funds and unused bond proceeds:
• $45 m illion from the state's Econom ic Recovery Fund , a bipartisan initiative intended to jum p start the state's flagging economy,
• $155 m illion from the state R efunding Bond Act, another bipartisan initiative that generated m oney through the refinancing o f state bonds:
• and $100 m illion in unused bond proceeds from the sale o f tidelands.

Show your support for borough’s youth by attending Star Nite ’93 and concert
It is not often that a community can pul together to support two worthy causes and have a lot of tonin the prooess.
Such an opportunity w i be there Saturday night at South Plainfield High School when Star N te 'fJ3 will be presented tor the benefit of toe PAL BukSng Fund and the South Plainfield Summer DramaWorkshop.
Besides loads of locaf talent, toe show wifi feature the lengendary Darlene Love, who recorded such classic hits like Qe Do Run Run, A nd Then He Kissed Me, and I M e l The B oy I'm G oing to M arryToday.
Also returning to the high school stage w i be hostess and host Kathy Jacobi and Atoert Mier, who teamed together last year far toe Irst time to host Nite of toe Stars, and sang Mr. M ler's Feel the Magic of D ream s. The dynamic duo piOT to sing two new original songs tor the occasion. Som ewhere In Your Eyes, One M ore Time (Forever). x
Star Nite "93 promises to be a ton and exciting evening, but what should not be lost among the glitz and glitter are the two beneficiaries of the evening's proceeds.
The expansion of the PAL Building wit help fill the need for additional recreational facilities in the borough. The Summer Drama Workshop has traditionally been a great way tor youths to spend their summer vacation doing something creative, instead of just hanging out at the mall.
Both causes have been generously supported by borough residents, and a tremendous show of community support at Star Nite will boost both programs toward their fund-raising goals.
The enthusiasm shown by a i connected with Star Nite suggests that tots win be a memorable even t W e hope the rest of the oommunity wUl reflect that enthusiasm and com e out to see som e truly talented individuals and help these two programs for South Plainfield's youth.
Tickets tor the show are $8 in advance, and $10 at the door. The curtain rises af 7:30 p.m.
Also not to be missed is South F’tanfiekj High School's annual spring concert next Thursday n the high school auditorium. Joining the talented students will be the accom ptehed pantst Paul Di- Dario, a graduate of South PLinfield High School. The concert is a showcase for the borough s young home-grown talent and more th a i just e v ents should make it a pofat to attend.

‘Business as usual’ for DemsTo The Reporter
A letter (May 6) criticized the Republican majority for once again (for the fifth straight year) working diligently to pass along a zero percent increase in the local tax rate. The author of that letter said that I made a statement that “there are 22,000 residents in South Plainfield and 21,000 aren't here tonight" Either the person that signed that letter was not listening, or he was just another Democrat plant who along with the many other party faithful (which included their party municipal chairman, committee people, former coundlpersons, former and current candidates, and everyone's spouses) were in attendance at that meeting.
Unfortunately, the crowd did include a few innocent taxpayers that were drawn there by a flier (without disclaimer) distributed by the spouse of a Democrat council candidate. The flier was inaccurate and gave the impression that “the sky is falling.”
At one point during the meeting, a certain person made a statement that “the majority of the people don't want the Republican fiscal plan. Therefore, we should table it and allow the people to vote on a referendum.” My reply was, “There are 22,000 resi
dents in South Plainfield and appraxirrately 21.SsX) are not here. Therefore, you do not represent the majority."
The truth is, there will not be a tax increase on the local level for the fifth straight year The rate has been stable at 48 cents since 1989. The Democrat pian calls for a 36-cent tax increase, which would raise the tax rate to 84 cents per $100 valuation, which expiates to a $400 tax increase on the average home in South Plainfield.
Arrogance is in the eye o f the beholder. I f I and the Republican majority are considered arrogant for working diligently to stabilize taxes m this community, that is fine. I would then be happy to be considered arrogant It sure beats twisting information and doing everything passible to have the tax rate increase
What do you call it when you do in your power to w in an election on the backs o f the taxpayer’ It is called business as usual for five South Plainfield Democratic organization.

Is democracy dead in South Plainfield?To H ie Reporter
Did you attend the budget meeting at Borough Hall on April 26? I f you did, do you know what really happened? I f you didn’t attend, have you heard all the people talking about it?
Our mayor and the Republican majority on the counci] voted to approve an approximately $15 million expenditure to take South Plainfield to a fiscal-year budget, in spite o f the opposition o f every one o f the 200-plus town taxpayers who attended. You may say, So what? How does it affect me? Well, with the declining assessed value o f businesses in town, the remaining homeowners will have to pick up the tab by increased taxes. The mayor’s plan involves a proposed 36-point tax increase over the next three years. (This w ill increase even more i f additional bonds which are being planned are also passed.)
You may now be saying, Wait a minute! W e can’t afford a tax increase! Or, We don’t agree with this, what can w e do? Well, tliat’s w hy the more than 200 townspeople attended the April 26 meeting. So what happened? Although the people opposed the m ove to a fiscal year and the bond, it was still passed. M y question to you is this: Is democracy dead in South Plainfield? Do our elected officials really represent us, the people who are paying taxes?
It ’s no secret that I am running for the council in
Novem ber and m y comments about Council President Dashuta’s lack o f contribution during the budget discussions was not a Freudian slip. I’m tired o f Mayor Woskey selling the rezoning, the budget, the multiplex theater, e tc Why aren't the other council members participating? Don’t they know about the issues? I f they don’t, how can they in good conscience vote to pass it? Do they all fo llow their political party’ s direction?
In my opiniori, something is wrong at Borough Hall! You may say, this is just politics, but i f you know me, I ’m not a politician! I'm a citizen who is tired with the lack o f interest for the wants and needs o f the taxpayers in this town. Th e council was elected to represent us! We need to shew them that we have had enough. Please come to the council meetings on the second and fourth Thursday o f each month at Borough Hall at 8 p.m. See how they represent you Express your feelings and wants. You deserve to be heard!
(If, after attending these meetings, you still want to be heard, do so at the polls on Nov. 2. I need your vote and support to get the control o f this town back into your hands!)

Taking your time is best way to deal with children
| Guest commentary |B y MICHAEL BONK• o i r m r i a i n k i k i j >
HKAI.TII DEPARTMENT
No parent can bo attentive to a child’s physical and emotional noeds at all timo3 in all places. It's easy to feel unprepared or inadequate whon facing tho challenges of raising children in today's complex world
I ho South Plainfield Health Department offors tho following tips:
Respect your child's uniqueness — that's what Buikos her special! Although it's not always easy, try to avoid comparison to siblings or poer3. Complimont honestly. Focus on your child's strengths, acknowledge her . iccomplishmortts, and oncourago her to develop her11 k iividual skills.
Look at how you deal with (mis)behavior. Tho goal is to holp your child mature into a well functioning adult, not to vent adult anger or frustration. Punishment is used by an adult with power to ensure obedienco. In contrast, .1 dearly defined consoquonco sets up a logics outcome lo an unacceptable behavior, such as having a child pay lor a broken window.
Take time out. Don’t tako it out on your kid. Try theso12 "timo out" lips from the Natiofuil Cornmitteo for Prevention of Child Abuse You'll fool better, and so wiD yourkids.• Stop in your tracks. Step back Sit down Or leave thoroom.• Tako a deep breath. And another. Then rememberyou aro tho adult.• Count to 10. Better yet. 20. Or say the alphabet outloud.• Phone a friend. Or a relative. Or a neighbor. Talk about even the weather.• Still mad? Punch a pillow. Or munch a apple. Peel anorange.• Close your eyes — listen to what your child is aboutto hear.• Put your child in a "time-out" chair. Or put yourself ina "time-out" chair.
• Pick up a pencil and write down your thoughts.• Take a hot bath. Or a cold shower. Wash your lace.• If someone can watch the children, go outside and tako a walk.• Put on your favorite music. Watch TV or a video for 10minutes.• Water your plants. Sweep the floor. Take out thegarbage.
More parenting tips:• Hold a family meeting to explain the household rules. Keep it simple. Then be prepared to reinforce rules several times. Try to be flexible — sometimes rules canchange.• Liston to your children's laughter — and laugh withthorn.• Respect your children s privacy (and ask that they respect yours).• Parents don't havo to be perfect Don’t scold yourself for losing your temper, but apologize when you're wrong.• "Bad" behavior usually gets attention — praise your children each and every day.• Share your feelings with your children — it gives them permission to share theirs.• Offer choices to your children whenever possible, so they have opportunities to make decisions without defying you.• Tell your children you love them every day. Put an "I Love You" note in your child's lunchbox or on the bathroom mirror. Give an extra hug and kiss for no special reason.
If you want more information or need someone to talk to, call the Family Help-Line at 1-QOO-THE KJDS or the National Committee for Prevention of C h id Abuse at(201) 643-3710.

VHS letterboxing enhances videos

Explaining Vietnam has become a second fut timo job lor 1965 graduate of South Plainfield High School Joe Beiardo, who is also a graduate of tho Vietnam War in 1968.
Together with Vietnam War infantry sofdior A! Chisla, Mr. Beiardo spoke ewer 200 history students in the high school auditorium Friday about whal he said was the "real" Vietnam.
T hare been going around to schools lor nine years to tei students about the truth of Vietnam, not found in the history books,” Mr. Betodo said. "But I am nrt here to defend
whether we were right or wrong in Vietnam."
The program was planned in accordance with Vietnam Veteran's Memorial Day by the history department head Tony Barca and fellow teachers Mart Kuuskvere, Don Clark, Pal Gipson, Mfce English and Steve Novak
Mr. Beiardo oompieted his tour of duty from August 1967 to August 1968, as a member of the 3rd Marine Division on a Twin 40 Automatic Tank crew.
The tank itself, Mr. Beiardo said, can tire 240 40 mm rounds per minute, and would have only needed two minutes to level a structure the size of South Plainfield High School
Part of the session involved a slide presentation and even some audio tapes of actual battles in which Mr. Beiardo was a participant.
He said most oI his tour took him through the demilitarized zone (DMZ) and he even showed four slides of pictures he took during a baffle with an enemy tank, which was two miles away, on top of another mountain.
"It took us three shots to finally hit the enemy lank," Mr. Beiardo said as he showed a final side of billowing smoke floating up from the tank.
A portxxi of the false information about Vietnam has been the actual land itself, according to Mr. Beiardo, who said it was not even dose to the
movie portrayals."To this day, I have always thought
Vietnam was the most beautiful place in the world," he said. “During my first week before going into combat I even went swimming.’'
One statistic Mr. Beiardo pointed out was only 20 percent of Vietnam War veterans saw any kind of combat and onfy three quarters of those soldiers actually saw the enemy.
Most soldiers who died in battle were killed by the unseen enemy- known as mortar and artiery fire.
He also told stories about spiders, extra large rats, leeches, and the ever popular trips to the bathroom, including a picture of one set of toilets completely wide open tor everyone to see.

The adventure, mischief, and friendships o f Tom Sawyer came
ve in an operetta o f the same ame presented by the Riley
School Drama Club.The show, presented in day and
. vning performances April 29 and featured talented students from
grades 3-5.Tom Sawyer, directed by Joanne jrske and Eve Hook, was the re
sult o f months o f work and after
school rehearsals by the Drama Club, staff, and parent volunteers. The show had several sets, including a riverboat with working paddle. all designed by Mrs. Hook and constructed by her. her husband. A1 Hook; R iley students: and parents Roger Nagy and Tom Rowe. A professional sound system was erected by parents Sandy and Tom Devon, and professional stage lighting was designed and installed by Tom Rowe. Performance music was provided by Joan Stasio and fifth-grade percussionist James Borgese.
The operetta, highlighting the adventures o f Mark Twain's most famous character, featured numerous solo and choral numbers. In all 82 students were invoiced in the elaborate full-stage production. Dozens o f parent volunteers also worked behind the scenes in various capacities.
The role o f the mischievous Tom Sawyer was played by Jason Kol- larik. Huck Finn was portrayed by Tom m y Dovon. and best friend Joe Harper was played by Ryan Harty. Amanda Zawora portrayed Tom 's harried Aunt Polly, and Rebecca Perez played the role o f Tom 's patient cousin Mary.
Tom 's sweetheart Becky Thatch
er was portrayed by Lisa Mocerino, and her parents (Judge and Mrs. Thatcher) were played by Brad Tierney and Adrienne Nagy. Tom ’s tattling cousin Sid was comically portrayed by Nicole DeBiase. The Reverend (played by Michael De- Matos) and Mrs. Harper (played by Liz Keppel) completed the main cast o f characters.
The play featured periodic narration by Mark Twain (played by Justin Woo). Tom 's gang o f mischief-loving fnends (portrayed by Ricky Guniina, Natalie Kipila. An- gelique Ganairis, Cindy Carlson. Latricia Cofer. Rqjeeyah Madinah, and Kristyn Ciarlariello) completed the speaking cast Tom Sawyer also featured a full-costumed chorus as well as numerous townspeople in various scenes.
The comedic operetta was a first- dass production from start to finish. Both performances played to an SRO audience that had as much fun watching as the students had performing. R iley School's Tom Sawyer was a fun-filled hit!

More than 25 million Americans are affected by the debilitating disease osteoporosis, an illness in which bones become weak and are more likely to fracture, according to Dr. Young Ho Park, medical director of Nuclear Medicine at Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center.
"But today, with new prevention and treatment techniques, both men and women with the disease can look forward to maintaining their health and independence," Dr. Park said
Early, accurate diagnosis anil prevention are the most important keys in treating osteoporosis, he added.
"During Osteoporosis Prevention Week [May 9-15) we hope more people will become aware of this debilitating illness so that they con prevent it altogether, or treat it in its early stages," he sakl
Muhlenberg is one of two hospitals in the state to offer a painless test to measure how dense a person’s bones are. The test is performed on an outpatient basis, and takes about one hour.
‘The denser the bone, the stronger the bone." said Raymond Robinson, manager of Nuclear Medicine at the hospital. "Brittle or fragile bones are signs of osteoporosis.
'The bone density test can be used to determine whether a person has the disease, to chart a patient's progress if they have the disease, and to measure the suc
cess o f treatment," he said.According to Mr. Robinson, cer
tain factors may put a person ut higher risk for osteoporosis. Tlioso at risk include women who:• an1 Caucasian or Asian• have a family history o f fractures• experienced menopause before ago 45• an- small Ixmixl with slim builds• don’t get enough calcium in their diets• smoke or drink excessively• lack exercise• take certain medications
Although women are four timesmore likely than men to develop the disease, about 20 percent o f those afflicted with osteoporosis are men. Acconling to Mr. Robinson, ixxiple can find out i f they are at risk by talking with their physician and call the National Os teoix'iv'sis Foundation in Wash ington. D C . at (8(H)) 223 9994 for more information. Th ey can also call (he Department o f Nuclear Medicine at Muhlenberg, at (>68 2285.
"Since osUx>[xmisis is symptom less and the first sign o f the disease is often a fracture, it is essential that individuals assess their personal nsk and talk with their doctors," said Dr. Park. “Today, more than ever before, wo can help people with osteoporosis maintain their health and independence, and u v can prevent the disease from occurring at all in many [people)."

A creative solution to a thorny I problem — a mother who wanted a I Trx Mex barbwuc for her son's | liar Mitzvah while Dad wanted a I lormal dinner — resulted in a ere- I alive solution that not only left parent, child and quests delighted, but In I ICs Catering, 121 S. Plainfield Avo, South Plainfield, into a whole
| now area.Kay Roberts mid her husband
I .Hid chef Donald solved the problem by creating a chuck wagon, display o f dessert (lowers and long liarbecue grill that divided the I arty hall into two separate arenas.
Since then, says Mrs. Roberts, not only have many customers re- (|ucsted a chuck wagon, but their
business has expanded to include all sorts o f creative theme parties, complete with authentic decorations, ethnic and/or innovative menus, and entertainment
Along with their daughter and son-in-low, April and Dennis Smith, Kay and Donald will arrange the whole bash, from planning a menu o f impeccably fresh food to arranging for a DJ, a special band, or even such unusual entertainment as a psychic or caricature artist.
A t ICs Catering, the customer counts and the key word is quality. The business will help busy working people with a simple barbecue or cold-cut buffet, or help a family rtilfill it's wildest fantasy for a once-in-a-lifetime bash.
“ Everyone is more health conscious now, for example," she said, “ so often when we do a corporate lunch or a banquet for senior citiz-
ins, or a wedding where one entire family will be vegetarian, we develop menus that have no meat, no salt, or no fat. Because w e take great care and use only fresh ingredients, we are able to serve food that meets those needs and is also delicious."
For example, she notes, Donald's special Hawaiian chicken is made with a sauce that uses all fresh fruits. On the other hand, should you want an ethnic cholesterol-be- damned spread, ICs can provide that, too. Their OktoberFest features sauerhrauten and all the things that go along with it, and ethnic Polish, Italian and other cuisines are authentic. Donald’s ciop- pino, an Italian seafood stew, is always a favorite, she noted.

SBA message: Small business has big place in the economyBy SYLVIE MUCVANEY_________THE REPORTER
The message came in loud and clear at the annual N ew Jersey Small Business Administration Awards (SBA) Luncheon last Wednesday — small businesses mean big business for the Garden State.
Hosted by the Somerset County Chamber o f Commerce, the luncheon at The Bridgewater Manor, Bridgewater, honored the owners o f eight small businesses, including one South Plainfield business, that have weathered — and managed to prosper — during the economic storm battering N ew Jersey.
“Running a business today takes sheer guts, determination and a great deal o f faith,” said Vito R. Nardelli, executive director o f the N ew Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA). “But despite the odds, there are many businesses in N ew Jersey today that are proving that small businesses grow into big businesses."
“The governor [Jim Florio] is committed to small business development because he knows that small business is the backbone o f New Jersey’s and the nation's economy,” Mr. Nardelli said before reading a proclamation by Gov. Florio designating this week as Small Business Week throughout the state.
First Fidelity, Dime Savings agree on buy
First Fidelity Bancorporation o f Lnwrenceville and the Dim e Savings Bank o f New Jersey o f Somerset have announced they have reached an agreement in principle under which First Fidelity w ill purchase all eight New Jersey Dime branches and assume their deposit Uilances. currently about $342 m illion.
First Fidelity will pay a premium o f 3.505 percent on the deposit bul ances held in the branches at the time the transaction closes.
The eight branches are located in Warren, North Plainfield, Somerset, Middlesex, South Plainfield and Lawrence Township. In the transaction, First Fidelity will as same the 40,000 accounts (15,000 households) served by the New Jersey Dime. First Fidelity also will acquire a small amount o f loans secured by the assumed deposits.
“Th is is an attractive acquisition for us and improves our retail and small business service coverage in a number o f important local man kets,” says W olfgang Schoellkopf, First Fidelity vice chairman and ch ief financial officer. “W e w elcome the Dime customers to First Fidelity."
The acquisition requires the approval o f the appropriate banking regulators and is expected to close at mid-year.
Camp openingsWashington Rock Girl Scout
Council still has openings at both its day and resident summer camps. Girls do not have to participate in a G irl Scout troop to apply. Brochures about the camp programs are available by calling the council at 232-3236.
Th e public is invited to the Day Camp Open House 2-4 p.m. Sunday at the Oval Outdoor Program Center on South Orange Avenue in Maplewood. Th e camp is open to girls entering grades 1-9.
‘T h e last few years haven’t been smooth sailing for small business in New Jersey,” Mr. Nardelli said. “T h e national recession hit — and then the credit crunch. Small business has taken the brunt o f this brutal national recession."
Even if, against the odds, small business owners manage to make a profit and pay their bills on time, that is no guarantee they will survive, Mr. Nardelli said. Banks have fallen on hard times, as well, and may not be able to support small businesses for long periods o f time, he added
During the past few years, the EDA has helped increase the availability o f loan money for small businesses, approving $40 million in loans for 70 businesses last year, according to Mr. Nardelli. So far this year, almost $32 million in loans have been approved for 40 more businesses, he added
According to U S. Small Business Administration statistics, small businesses em ployed 65 percent o f the private work force in 1990, accounted for 99.7 percent o f all employers in 1990, and created 40 percent o f the nation's new high-technology jobs last year.
Eight o f those N ew Jersey businesses responsible for some o f that progress were recognized with the 1993 SBA awards They were: Women in Business Advocate o f the Year — Lila K. Grab, president
o f Career Services, Bridgewater, Media Advocate o f the Year — Melanie J. Davis, a freelance writer from Somerville; Veteran Advocate o f the Year — Roberto S. Martinez, a Newark-area resident who volunteers his time helping veterans; Small Business Persons o f the Year — Ronald and Joan Forrester, founders o f the Butcher Van Gourmet Meats Inc, Jackson; Financial Services Advocate — Theodore D. Bessler, president o f Garden State Bank, Jackson; Minority Small Business Advocate o f the Year — Deborah Aguiar-Velez. president o f Sistemas Corporation, Princeton; Accountant Advocate — Z. Thai- deus Zawacki, Point Pleasant; and Small Business Exporter o f the Year — Wayne Hengstenberg. president, and David Shick. vice president, M edical Specialties International, South Plainfield.
T h e two best days o f our lives were the day the M oney Store Corporation gave us the loan and the day w e paid it back." Mr. Heng- stenberg said after receiving his award, as Mr. Shick stood beside him.
Through her writing. Ms Davis said she increases public awareness about small businesses in N ew Jersey.
She said she considers herself “not just a writer for hire, but also a small business owner "

According to Mr. Dixon, the students also benefited from the visit as he and the other guests met with the physical education classes and spoke about their experiences with education and life after school.
Many of the celebrities spoke with students in both the high school and middle school on the program's title. Living Life to Its Fullest during the day.
Actress Michelle Teran told the students one way to be successful is to carefully choose friends.
“At your age you need to surround yourself with positive people

The students, who thought the issue o f the flex schedule was on the agenda, carried signs outside Grant School before the 7 p.m. meeting, with several different ones asking the board to keep the program in the high school.
Senior Michelle Perry, who w ill graduate next month, commented on the benefits o f the program.
■The students are hard-working and dedicated because they know the benefits from the flex schedule,'’ she told the board. “ I w ill go on to college, but the flex schedule will allow students after me to take additional courses which they can not fit into their regular day.”
The board has discussed loss of the teachers, administr-uve salaries, utilities, health care, but the flex schedule has received not a great deal o f attention.
In the morning program, students elect to take classes before
regular classes begin, including chorus, jazz band. SAT preparation course, word processing, and photography
This year's flex schedule has cost $53,000. according the board Wee- president Leon Aboosamara. but he said only $20,000 has been budgeted for 1993-94.
"The program is going to be cut down anyway." Mr. Aboosamara said "My objection is that this program was only budgeted for $20,000 next year, when it cost $53,000 this year. It is wrong that you (the students) have not been given the correct background information about what is happening.

Nothing illegal about campaign fliersP rosecu to r ’s O ff ic e says lack o f d isc la im er was an e rro r at the p rin tersBy JOHN CRANEU1THE REPORTER
Allegations by South Plainfield resident Paul Toth that new members of the Board o f Education Frank Mikorski, Eve Hook, and Theresa Caslow should step down because of illegal election advertisements have been dismissed by the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office.
Mr. Toth charged in a letter to The Reporter the candidates distributed illegal political literature and should resign.
But, the incident had already been investigated by the prosecutor's office.
"As far as I am concerned, nothing illegal occurred and the pros
ecutor’s office has closed the case,” said S g t Ellen Price. “W hat happened was a technical error at the printer.”
Mr. Toth, in his letter, claimed the advertisements were illegal because the disclaimer which is supposed to be printed at the bottom o f all political advertisements, was missing.
In the same letter, Mr. Toth charged it was ironic the three candidates saw fit to distribute campaign literature that allegedly violated N ew Jersey's campaign ad- vertising law, since they ran on a platform o f doing business by the book.
Mort Perlman, manager o f the C R A Mass mailers in Edison, the company which printed the ads.
said it was a mistake."T h e disclaimer line at the bot
tom o f the page had been cut in half when it was faxed to us,” Mr, Perlman said.
"S ince only half the disclaimer was on the sheet, the typesetters did not print it on the advertisement because they thought it was a transmission line, which is placed on every sheet o f paper printed by tin' fticsimile machine," he added.
The members named in the letter have known for several weeks they have been cleared by the prosecutor's office because o f the printing error.
"1 am appalled at the sour grapes which have been thrown around this community," said Mrs. Hook.
“We received a letter two weeks
ago from the prosecutor's office
telling us the case was closed, Oie

Congressman hears worries about health care costsBy JOHN QRANELL1
THE REPORTER
Congressman Bob Pranks visited Borough Hall Saturday morning to listen to residents’ concerns about the federal governm ent
“ I have heard people express a frustration in the federal governm en t" Mr. Pranks said. “ People are literally losing faith in the government which was created to address your concerns."
About 60 people gathered in Council Chambers for the m eeting which last about 90 m inutes. and the biggest concern o f the day wasthe rising cost o f health care.
“1 was just recently in for surgery to a New Brunswick hospital, and before the cost for a doctor and an anesthesiologist they charged m e $20,000 for the use o f the operating room," said Russell Randolph.
Others expressed similar problems, while Mr. Franks said many government officials are awaiting the National Health Car Reform plan, which should be unveiled this month by Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Residents also questioned action on pending bills including the economic plan, em ploym ent the taxing o f Social Security, the question o f abortion, and congressional traveL
Travel has been cine o f the first projects tack
led by Mr. Franks and he discovered $7.3 billion was spent in this area, with over 48 percent being used in the month o f September.
"What I found out was officials were checking their budget before September ( i f travel is not used by the end o f September, it is lost)," Mr. Franks said. “ They would then schedule
meetings and conferences to use up the
money."H e offered the suggestion to allow the Sep
tember trips to continue but to lim it the
amount o f money available for use, to the monthly average used in the 11 previous
months.This was a point discussed by
board member Frank Cornell, who proposed $247,000 in line item cuts, but they were not accepted by the 1992-93 board, which approved the new budget 5-4, in March.
The flex-schedule is included in 13 cuts given to the Borough Council, and will be voted on at tonight's public meeting.
It is the loss of the seven teaching positions which have not been discussed nor are they included, thus far, in the evaluation being conducted by the council.

Even when numbers are low and it seems it’s fjoing to be a long season, the South Plainfield girls track team finds a way to win.
“ I don’t really know how they’re doing it, to lx? quite honest,” said Coach Lisa Morris. "W e have depth in the field event:;, but in the running events, we only have 11 girls, sometimes a:; few as eight.”
This past week, the Lady Tigers improved their record to 5-0 with a 70-46 victory over Cedar Ridge on Friday and a tight 70 52 triumph over Colonia on Monday.
Last Wednesday, South Plain- field made an impression on the rest o f the Greater Middlesex Conference at the CM C Relays, securing the White Division title and finishing fifth overall.
“ I couldn’t be prouder for what they’ve done,” Morris said. "These girls are running their hearts out in every meet.”
A t the Relays, the shot put team o f Janeen Csordos, Denise Hardware and Am ber Mozingo claimed first. Csordos and Mozingo then teamed with Christine Curtin to capture first in the discus. Curtin, A lex Marin and Dorothy Howells combined for third in the javelin.
“Our field events have been strong all year,” said Morris. “ We’ve swept the field events almost every m eet We have depth and youth there.”

Tim ing is everything. And for the South Plainfield softball team, the Lady Tigers are picking the optimum time to start to je l l Just in time for the state and county playoffs.
Once a team begins to roll o ff five-game w inning streaks like there is nothing to i t that team also expects to win every time it takes the field.
This is the type o f mentality the Lady Tigers
now' have and take with them into every game. It comes with strong pitching, solid defense and clutch hitting.
"Everyone is psyched." said shortstop Jamne Plate. “W e all know that when w e take the field, we can .be at anyone."
Following a disappointing 2-1 loss to Bishop Ahr on Thursday to end a four-game w inning streak and dampen South Plainfield's hopes for the GMC White Division title, the Lady Tigers bounced back and secured a 7-0 \ictory over South R iver on Saturday.
South Plainfield hurler Laune Mattieola had
her best stuff on hand, yield ing only three hits, while striking out four and walking none en route to the complete-game shutout.
" I think I'm pitching better because m y defense is playing better behind me,” said Mat- ticola. T t g ives m e confidence w hen I know w hereever they hit i t the defense is going to come up with d ie play.”
The left side o f the T igers’ in field accounted for eight o f the outs as third baseman Stephanie Zitsch and Plate put away everyth ing hit in their direction.

team rebounded with three straight wins after what was described by Coach Steve Novak, as “the worst week in my 25 years o f coaching South Plainfield baseball."
Following three games in which the Tigers were outscored by a combined 498. Novak bought a new scorebook and broke out the green uniforms and black hats. The result was a three-game w inning streak.
The streak ended with a 3-1 defeat to Colon ia Sophomore Kerin Maleckj (3-4) yielded only five hits and two unearned runs to take the loss.
The Tigers struck for their run in the seventh, when Mike Colicchio reached on error, moved to third on a single to Chris Rhodes, and
eventually scored on a single by Dave Sesok.
South Plainfield has had only three losing seasons during Novak's tenure, but is now 8 l).
Mike Kurilew delivered the game-winning hit in the fourth inning to help give Malecki an 8 6 victory over North Brunswick.
Joe Cirigliano and Colicchio each had doubles while Tom Rovitz and Paul Mruczinski had three hits apiece.
Cirigliano tossed a four-hit shutout to defeat Cedar Ridge. 1-0 on Saturday. Mruczinski drove home Cirigliano for the game's only run

squad, which is dominated by juniors.
"Th e kids here have been together for the last three years," said Wood. "They base built confidence together and they've really worked hard to get w here they are."
The team's dnsing force comes from first singles player, junior Duane Limerick, who has posted an 8-3 reconi thus far.
"Duane's playing at a very strenuous position," Wood said. "Besides facing every team ’s number one guy. he knows i f he ever misses a match, w e're in trouble He played with a very serious ankle injury just to maintain the lineup."
But Wood's steady lintMip re- cently suffered a shake up when
third singles player, L c Tran, had to leave the team.
Junior Sean Finncrty has been solid at second singles, fashioning a 5-6 record.
"Scan has gotten over the obstacles in the road in front o f him." said Wood. “ He's improved and playing consistently. He and Duane are now thinking their shots through, not going for the killer every shot They're waiting until the shot is perfectly set up."
The loss o f Tran at third singles has had the most impact on the doubles teams. First doubles player Ryan Ippolito was forced to move up to fill the slot. Although he lost in his first outing, the junior almost pulled o f f the victory.
"Ryan did a tremendous job on Friday (in (lie T igers’ 3-2 loss to Colonia),” said Wood. "H e would not quit and the entire team was pulling for him."
Ippolito lost the first set, 6-2, but rebounded to claim the second set, 6-4, before bowing out in the final set, 6-4
With Ippolito moving up to sin gles, Scott Hibar has moved in to jo in Keith Walsh at first doubles. N irok Rastogi and Robbie P e r hat h round out the second doubles tandem.
"The doubles teams are ail area o f confusion at the moment," said Wood "But llie kids are confident that they can keep playing well and adapt to (heir new partners."

South Plainfield struck early when Moore led o ff the game with a bloop single to center ofT Rams' pitcher Stephanie Tnppodi (6-4) and moved to third on consecutive wild pitches. Catcher Heather .-Anderson then delivered a single to right to score Moore.
The Tigers padded their lead in the second frame. Leftfielder Missy Ferguson worked a walk and stole second before Jaime Johnson laid down a perfect bunt and beat it out for an infield single to put runners on the comers.
After Johnson stole second, Trip- podi fired a wild pitch to allow Ferguson to score and Johnson to advance to third. Kelly Lanni then drove in Johnson with a fielder's choice for the third run.
Ferguson manufactured a run for South Plainfield in the fourth inning, ripping a double to right- center field and later scoring on a Lady Rams’ error.
The Tigers’ final runs came in the sixth inning, when Zitsch led o ff with a double and scored on a single by Malikah BryanL who reached second when the center- fie lder booted the ball.

Broker-Owners
Most homeowners are unaware that regardless of their income there are federal, state, and local programs that will help them repair and remodel their homes.
Government at al levels recognizes that neighborhoods are the basis ol life in our country. When a neighborhood deteriorates, many things happen both physically and socially. When the homes look shabby, a neighborhood seems more attractive to crime and aim- mats An area in decline is Eke a spreading cancer. As homes become shabby-looking and in need of mainte-
trash, schools lower their standards, and very quickly the sellng price of homes in the area drops sharply. This accelerates the cycle of degeneration.
In order to keep and maintain the nafcn's housing and neighborhoods, government at al levels has programs to grve homeowners money (that does not have to be repaid) tar repairs, or to lend them money at below market levels, or at no interest In marry areas, utfity companes w i either do energy conservation work tree or at tow cost and in other places will lend homeewmers money al no interest to pay the contractor of their choice tor the necessary work. In addittoo there are tax ncereves to promote efficient energy use.
These programs are not restricted to tow-income people, slum areas or irban neighborhoods. Owners of single or mUWarnfly dweffings are etgfcle tor some programs regardless of income. Most of the loans offer long term and tow payments.
Some of the other home improvements covered inder these
programs are: attic and wall insulation, new windows, siding, security doors and locks, window guards, sidewalks and masonry work, bathrooms and kitchens, electrical and plumbing work, new roofs, gutters or down spouts.
The Consumer Information Agency, a national consumer publishing group has released its Consumers Guide to Home Repair Grants and Subsidized Loans. The 240-page book Ests more than 7,000 sources of loan and grant programs offered by all levels of government, in addition to utility companies and oth
ers, typical programs offered and eligibility requirements. Form letters tor inquiries to these loan and
grant sources are included, as wei as detailed instructions on determining your debt-to-income ratio for eE- gibility.
The book can be obtained forS15.95 plus $2.00 shipping andhandling from C.IA/Grants, 60 Evergreen Place, East Orange, NJ 07018 or by calling 800-PUB-UST tol free for credit card orders.
Monroe Spiegel of C.IA/Grants says: "Some of these programs have no income ceiling and others allow income of as much as $100,000 per year. There are even programs for which tenants are eligible, and many allow loans or give grants to poor credit risks. In many areas, people with dtsatrtbes can receive grants to pay for needed repairs such as access ramps and widening of doorways."
Since it is important that the work be done property, the book indudes a section showing how to pick a reputable contractor, negotiate a contract, and insure that the work is done property and for a fair price.

Debunking the secrets of 20-year mortgages
Up until now, tire 20-year mortgage has been a well- kept secret, according to Richard A. Rosenberg, president o f Vision Mortgage.
Twenty-year mortgages are a more affordable alternative to the higher payments o f a 15-year mortgage without the lengthy term o f a 30-vear mortgage.
"Tire 30-year mortgage has been the most popular fixed-rate loan for years. Few lenders have begun to offer tire 20-year mortgage option," explains Mr. Rosenberg.
Vision Mortgage has seen a recent increase in tire demand for 20-year mortgages. Nearly 15 percent o f all loons Vision closed this rear have been 20 year fixed rate mortgages, compared to 5 percent in 1992.
According to Zach Oppenheinrer, vioe president o f marketing for Fannie Mae's northeastern regional o ffice. 20-year mortgages doubled their volume nationwide in 1992 at 65 billion, compared with loss than 62 billion rn 1991.
"Fannie Mae, the nation’s 'ia ry .e s ! source o f home mortgage fan.,is, is pleased to work with Vision as an active participant in offering 20-year mortgages.", says Mr. Oppenheinrer
In response to changing housing market conditions and the 20-year mortgage origination trend, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have' recently introduced 20- year mortgage products and 20-year securities.
“ In today's market, home values do not appreciate as quickly as they did in the 19110's," says Mr. Rosen berg. "T lie save versus spend mentality has prompted consumers to pay down the principal on the mortgages"
Kquity grows more rapidly with a shorter mortgage Interest accrues for fewer years and homeowners are freed up sooner from what is probably the biggest debt o f their lives.
"F.ighty five percent o f homeowners who close on a 30-yoar mortgage, would qualify for u 20-year loan," Mr. Rosenberg says "Unfortunately, consumers are generally unaware o f a shorter loan's availability and benefits. "There is no mystery in the qualification process," he explains. "A ll lenders use tire same sim pie formula 21! perm it o f your income determines what you can afford as a monthly mortgage payment. However, exceptions are made and that percentage could go as high as 33 ix-reent." Vision Mortgage expects the 20-year mortgage boom, not only among luimebuyers, but among refinancers as well. Kducatcd consumers can cut down on the amount o f Interest they have to (ray by tens o f thousands o f dollars.
"The 20 year product allows the consumer to have a relatively short term mortgage with payments o f gen erally no more than $100 |x'r month more than u 30 year fixed rate loan," explains Mr Rosenberg.

becoming a trend according to an article in Builder .Vfogorine.
Both first-time and move-up buyers can benefit by selecting an energy-efficient home. One benefit o f purchasing a highly-efficient home are Sower monthly energy bills, which free up funds that can

H U D official outlines the department’s plans to improve its services
W A SH IN G TO N — H ie Clinton administration is working to make the U.S. Department o f Housing and Urban Development (HUD) "a catalyst, not an obstacle," in finding solutions to the nation's housing and community development problems. That was the message Terrence Duvemay. a HUD deputy secre-
delivered to the recent National Association o f Realtor's Midyear Conference and Trade Exposition. Mr. Duvemay discussed HUD'S new focus at a forum here during the exposition. Nearly 7,000 realtors and guests attended the conference.
According to Mr. Duvemay, HUD is committed to being an “agent o f change" that w ill reorganize its programs so they effectively serve the needs for which they were created. "Reinventing HUD is our task," Mr. Duvemay said
Department officials plan to “transform uncoordinated programs" and "m ake (HUD ) a problem-solving" deliverer o f housing, he noted-
Mr. Duvemay addressed the department's efforts to expand the availability o f single-family loans provided through the Federal Housing Administration's (EHA) mortgage insurance program, im prove the preservation o f low- income multifamily housing, and increase enforcement o f the federal fair housing law. Specifically, he said, HUD is concerned over FH A ’s loss o f mortgage financing activity', noting that the program currently has about 4 percent o f the market share, compared to a 50 percent share years ago.
“We must find a way to get FH A back" as a major mortgage insurer, Mr. I>.\ em ay said
Last year, NAT. , oiced concerns over FH A changes imposed by HUD that made the program less affordable and less usable for entry-level buyers. The changes, which essentially raised the dosing costs, subsequently were repealed in NAR-supported housing legislation enacted late last year.
Currently, HUD is examining ways to simplify the loan*to-value ratios and mortgage insurance premium structure used in FHA underwriting, Mr. Duvemay said. In addition, the department is considering an increase in the mortgage insurance limit, which is now $151,725 in high-cost areas, he noted H igher down payments may be tied to such an increase, he said
"The (mortgage insurance) caps are a concern," he said “We are looking at how and when they should be raised”
NAR has long supported tying the FH A mortgage insurance lim it to local housing prices. Making this adjustment would allow FH A to reach buyers in areas such as the California coast and the Northeast, where home prices generally exceed the current mortgage insurance limit
HUD also is seeking to step up preservation of low- income multi-family housing, through an increase in funding for the flexible subsidy program, Mr. Duver- nav said This is part o f the department's focus on major rehabilitation of older, deteriorated units that could be used to help curtail the growing shortage of affordable housing for low-income residents.
He praised realtors for their efforts in fighting housing discrimination.
"You are part o f the solution," Mr. Duvemay said He noted that the department is planning to devote more resources to the enforcement of the federal fair housing law. "W e must address what race continues to do ... in the denial of access to rental housing, home ownership and loans.
"We are committed to helping all people have the freedom to live wherever they choose.
"H UD must not discriminate, but we must find a way to weed out criminals,” Mr. Duvemay said
The department has earmarked more fiinds to combat drug —W and other crimes in public housing projects and other HUD-supported communities, he noted “We must confront destructive behavior and strengthen the social contract o t rights and responsibilities.” he «»«R
The Clinton administration is shifting away from the previous a d
ministration's focus on enabling public housing tenants to purchase the units in which they live. According to Mr. Duvemay. the rtftapiR—-rf condition o t many public housing units would make them poor choices as for-purchase properties.
T h e idea o f provkfing public housing residents with home ownership opportunities is important. But letting them buy public housing probably is too ambt- tious a goal," he said
HUD's fiscal 1994 budget calls far targe funding cuts in the tenant ownership conve isajn p i - f m i known as HOPE, and simultaneously provides forsubstantial increases in HOME, a block grant program that supports affordable housing ccnstructicn and rehabilitation. Mr. Duvemay H U D aims to streamline and deregulate H O M E so the funds can be distributed more efficiently to communities.
"W e must enahle communities to develop in a way that works,” he sa id pointing out that the economic heath o f each locality is intertwined with that o t other communities and the national economy.
Mr. Duvemay asked NAR members to H UD in rebuilding community spirit and improving housing conditions.
' NAR and HUD share the goals o t decent, affordable housing and fair housing nfT” fog- all,” he said
‘(The National Association of Realtors) and HUD share the goals of decent affordable housing and fair housing opportunities for all’

Debunking the secrets of 20-year mortgages(Continued from page RE-2)

seven years for 30-year term, “Our policy is to offer products $55,890, for 20 years, $52,088; prin- that our own employees would
cipal paid in seven years for 30- want to buy,” Mr. Rosenberg said, year mortgage, $7,216, for 20 years, “We encourage consumers to take
$18,828. advantage o f the 20-year loan.”

ol the Porscho from way back when.
‘Low ’ price, high tech Porsche 968 a valueBy Bill. RUSS __________________
FORBES NEWSPAPERS
orsche’s roots are in engineering
and racing.Historically, Porsches have been
expensive, serious sports cars capable o l being competitively raced with a m inimum o f modification. Race car technology, with it’s requirement for close and precise design tolerances, as well as the latest in engineering and electronics techniques, has long been featured in produc
tion Porsches.This, combined with excellent coach-
work, top quality materials, and relatively short production runs contributes to their
expensiveness.Th e 968 is the newest Porsche. With it’s
front engine rear drive layout it traces its lineage back via the 944 o f a decade ago to the 924 o f almost 20 years ago. What really differentiates the 968 from earlier Porsches are its engine and suspension set
ups.The 968's 4-cylinder, 3.0 liter, dual over
head cam, 16-valve powerplant is a masterpiece o f race-bred engineering combined with computer-controlled engine management. A computer-managed, highly sophisticated, variable valve-tim ing system called VarioCam and a dual-path intake layout plus dual balance shafts and knock sensors deliver an impressive and smooth 235 horsepower across a broad power band, without the use o f a turbo or
a supercharger.To better utilize this performance, our
968 coupe was fitted with the optional sport chassis which provides race car quality handling. It uses larger 17-inch wheels and 27rated tires, very heavy duty suspension components and superb cross- drilled ventilated disc brakes.
These combinations allow the 968 to go
fast and stop fast
APPEARANCEThe 968 is obviously the descendant o f
both the 944 and the 928. In fact, it looks like a 944 with a 928 nose job, including the unusual pop-up headlamps.
Definitely assertive and definitely Por
sche.
COMFORTLike its predecessors, the 968 provides
ample seating in front and very compact seating in hack. It has fiill analog instru
mentation, an infrared remote locking sys tern, power heated mirrors and partially pcwverod front seats. The, metal sunroof is
the tilt and remove type.Th e sound system is fine on FM and
CD, but AM reception is not up to stand aid. However, the climate control setup is
now a lot quieter and quite effective.
ROADABILITYWith the optional sports chassis han
dling package and lim ited slip differential
the 968 becomes a true sports road car
that offers a firm, but well mannered and
balanced nde.
The Yokohama A008P high speed tires
put a big wide footprint on the road and
give the force-sensitive rack and pinion
power steering a chance to prove its worth
through relatively easy and precise ma
neuvering. Porsches have never really
been quiet cars, and the 968 is no excep
tion. Engine noise is quite apparent, as are
wind and tire noise.
A t low speeds bumps and pot holes are
obvious, but as speed increases the ride
noticeably smooths ou t For safety the
dual air bags provide security, and the
anti-lock disc brakes are unbeatable.
PERFORMANCEThe 968’s high-tech and powerful 4-
cvlinder, multi-valve 3.0 liter, 236 horse
power engine is capable o f getting from 0 to 60 mph in dose to six seconds. This
potential supplies a very safe margin for
merging, passing and getting around in
heavy traffic. A slick six-speed manual
shifter quickly and smoothly gets through
the gears. However the gates are dose to
gether. and a lock-out for reverse gear
would ensure starting out in the correct
direction.
SUGGESTIONSAdd an outside antenna for acceptable
AM reception.
ECONOMYEPA ratings are 17 city/26 highway. I
averaged 23.3 mpg.
CONCLUSIONSThe 968 Porsche meets the criteria o f
Porsche. It is readily identifiable, it will
undoubtedly develop an enthusiastic
group o f owners, it utilizes loading edge
technology's, it has an out-of-the-box com
petition potential, and it is fhn to drive.

Michael Andretti’s performance turns into his worst nightmareBy TONYMKKMTOIU1ES NEWSPAPERS

The moment came and the green light for the series opener flashed. The Dream Team driver floored the car and it remained on the grid as the rest o f the field flashed past and went off to race
initiation.
M ichael Andretti’s
first race for
M cLaren w as not all
it was not all it was
advertised to have
been. Ilis debut in 1
the season opener atKyalam i w as som ewhat, er, lackluster. Perhaps a
hit less than w e ’d expected from old Mike. Okay,
let’s face facts. It stunk.
It w asn ’t enough that Mr. Andretti had started
ninth on the g r id ,. w e all kn ew he w as in the
heat o f battle _ it was that start that did him in
in the m inds o f most Am ericans w ho tuned in to
follow the United States’ hope for a W orld
Cham pion. It w as that horrible start
G rand Prix starts are truly spectacular, like
nothing else in the world. T h ey are turbu len t
often violent beginn ings that yet the tone o f F I
G rand Prix races. T h ey are 26-car d rag races,
where the entire field drops the clutch at the
exact sam e time and races aw ay to the first turn
w here the inevitable turn one m assacres occur
(that subject best left for another colum n). The
starts A R E G rand P rix racing. In all it’s nervous
energy.
M ichael Andretti w e felt, had the tem pera
m ent to be a G rand P rix driver. H e had the
nervous energy. It takes a special breed, cer
tainly, to want to go G P racing. A n d M ichael, w e
thought, had that k ind o f schizophrenia to suc
ceed in F I.
But w e forgot another ailm ent he had. W e ’d
overlooked som ething central to Mr. Andretti’s
character, a piece o f personal history very d if
ficult to ignore. W e forgot about M ichael’s propensity to stall a car.
W e ’d see it time and time again. H e ’d be out, driving the bejezus out o f an Indy car. Perhaps
it w as a N ew m an -H aas Lola. It could have been
the Kraco car, as w as m ore often the case. But at
the exact w rong m om ent, M ichael wou ld stall
the car in the pits. Som etim es he would forget
the brakes, leaving the w heel m en a spinning
w heel to try to change in the heat o f the race.___________________________ During the race, M ichael
w as always concen
trating on driving. A l
ways. Perhaps that was
the problem in South A f
rica. Perhaps he was
worried about the race.
But it will likely be tin
im age that sticks inm any people’s m inds, torm enting M ichael the
most. The grid m ade it’s parade lap and M ichael
stayed in the car, contemplative, determ ined
(he ’d even said to E S P N ’s Derek Daly he d idn ’t
want to screw up. The grid lined up, engines
racing. The red light appeared, then the green.
Nobody on this side o f the pond was watching
the front o f the grid. W e w ere all watching the
m iddle and, yes, there it w as right there in the
m iddle o f the grid was that red and white
M cLaren. A n d our hearts sunk. Not Michael,
please, anyone but M ichaeL But our hopes were
dashed. It w as indeed Andretti.
A British colleague voiced his opinion: “I hope
he falls on his face.” I paraphrase. H e didn't use
that end o f Mr. Andretti's body. It wasn 't that he
disliked M ichael. I don ’t think anybody who
likes racing can ever truly dislike Mr. Andretti.
H e Just w anted him to be a tad m ore hum ble in
his approach to the job. I think the start o f the
South A frican G rand Prix did the trick. H e
learned a lot about hum ility in one fell swoop.
God, w hat a w ay to begin.
Thanks fornee.

Not long ago, as you may recall, we had so many customers we sometimes had to ask them to wait a few weeks while we built their cars. Well, the
people in Spring Hill voted to put in a bit more overtime to help keep up with the demand, and we now have a pretty wide selection of models
to show'you. So the only thing that might try your patience from now on is hearing over and over again, "Say, how doyou like your new Saturn?"

k pring is in the air. the weather is getting warmer.
| and most high school seniors and juniors have one
more piece of business to take care of before graduation and summer vacation Tbe Prom
Students a ll over New Jersey are either preparing for the prom, or have had one already, but nonetheless. by the time it is a ll fin ished. m illions of dollar; w ill ha- e been spent on the annual high school forma! tradition
The usual format for attending a prom is buying the prom bid. usually costing anywhere from $45 to $100. renting a tuxedo or buying a gown, renting a lrmousir.e or fancy car (.others borrow them from friends and fam ily . purcnase flowers. and then at the prom, busing pictures.
Then there are the plans immediately following the oron. and then what the students are going to do for the weekend, which is usually a tnp to the shore or a mountain resort
Most students and advisers said another reality of preparing fee the prom is conducting fund-raisers, which the schools use to offset the cost of the bid. which is why some schools have werked their way down to the S45-S55 range
While most are not always fortunate to get the pnee dsrwr. mat far. there are soil normal sales, uke mugs, lollipops, baked gooes, and even some different events pumpkin sales, oe-aye T-shuts sales and tair booths
Then, there are the real!', ur. sual fund raisers but seerrung. most productive
At Manvtlle High Sen :class adviser Kath;. Hock - u i ut- literally let the animals un ana held a donkey basketball game, which raised $550
Also at the schoo., they held a tuxedo day. where Small s Ft rmal Wear from Middlesex M all lent several styles for students to wear for the day. and Ms. Hock sale a raffle was held for a free rental
Carolyn Smith, who is the mar. ager of Small s said the Digger- style this year is Perry Elds, which most students are getting w ith a shawl double breasted jacket, and peg leg pants 'baggy and tapered
She also said the printed accessories are big this year, as people are moving away from plain black, and the average cost of a rental ranges from S49.S9-S79.99
But Smith said high school students receive a discount when renting, $30 o ff for designer name tuxedos, and $10 for non-designer, bringing the cost down to $39 99- $69.99.
Piscataway High School had a sim ilar tuxedo day. according to senior class co-adviser Allan Goodman, but their big money-making machine was Jell-0 Wrestling, which raised over $1,000.
The cost of the Piscataway bid is $70 per couple, but they also offer a single bid for $35.

courage students to come even il n is by themselves,” Mr. Goodman said 'l l also makes it easier In- cause some kids go us friends anil tills way they can buy them sepn rutely "
Some hind-raisers even took on a community concern, as Westlield High School held n Tree Planting Fund Raiser.
This concept combined onvi ronmontul issues with a fund nns mg event." teacher and prom ad viser Jeanette Brannon said Pro pie bought certificates for trees re planted in an area that was living reforested.”
At Bishop Ahr High School m Edison, the students benefited in more ways than one, as they held "dress-down” days
Karen Barnes, a teacher and prom adviser for the high school said on certain Wednesdays throughout the year, students paid SI and were able to wear any clothes they wanted (w ithin reason. o f course) instead o f wearing their uniforms.
' Because o f the class sizes in the school on any given day wt could raise up to $1,000." Till s Barnes added
A lot o f schools mentioned the work for these fund-raisers is done by the jun ior class, who offer the prom to the seniors as a gift. The payoff, o f course, is that when they are seniors, the juniors w ill do the same for them. In other cases, the juniors who do the work are allowed to attend.
However, at Bridgewater-Raritan High School, the jun io r class ha. the prom, while the seniors have a seniors-only, semi-formal ball and banquet.
Several schools, meanwhile, reported that fund-raising for a d.i.- senlor prom begins as early as their freshman year.
Some schools also sponsor pre- and past-prom events to add to tin occasion, including Franklin High School, which has a pre-prom promenade”Assistant Principal ViVi Jack - n
said the students can go to the school and have their pictures taken in the senior courtyard, an event which started last year while the now-completed courtyard wa under construction.
“This discourages parents from going to the prom and they don1! have to travel to see all the kid' dressed up,” Ms Jackson said
Students and teachers lielieve all the money, time, and work are well worth the effort and the ma Jonty of' the students are happy with the results
Piscataway High School senioi class vice president S lurry R ivri said it. was cooperation which wa the key to their preparations
lu the past year., we have had complaints alxmt the prom, but w formed a eomrnittee lu plan tin .year’s In try and an.'iwt'l those 1 ornplaitils," Stiu-ey said "A ll 11 u work put into the prom is all wudli it and the cooperation people gtv lieeausc il is the prom makes il i little better”

o v I EHail to th e chief'Dave' lakes sharp aim at politics and the media
Kevin Kline plays Dave, whose impersonation of the president even foots first lady Sigouirn y Weaver in the new comedy by Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman.
By JEFFREY COHEN WeekendPlus Film Critic
There isn't one moment of Dave. Ivan Reitman’s new comedy, that you won’t lx. able to anticipate onc< - you
hear the premise: a regular guv is asked to impersonate the president, whom he remarkably resembles, then has to take on the job full-tim e when the prez has a stroke. Yes, you know the whole story now.
But it really doesn't matter.Much like B ig , another movie w ritten by Gary Ross (Although he had help on that one from Anne Spielberg, whose last name you might recognize), D a v e is a by-the-numbers comedy that relies on its characters and its actors to make it something special. The fact that it doesn’t succeed as well as B ig isn 't all that important in a season where anything that’' not sad or pretentious w ill pass for a comedy.
Is Dane fall-dawn-out-of-yo. -seat funny" Well. no. It's more like cute Is it a wise, cynical comedy satire on the order of Preston Sturgess" N'o. Its pokties are decidedly muddled, ard its message is that an honest president is better than a dishonest president No kidding
So why isn 't D a v e a bad movie? Hey. stop asking all those questions. It's just that Reitman. Ross and Kevin Kline, who plays Dave, the lookalike. and briefly. President M itchell, are so earnest, so clearly sold on the "a regular guy could just do this job with common sense" message they're offering that trashing their efforts would lie like kicking a puppy
You can hear the Hollywood pitch “ it's Pnnee and the P a u p e r " m eets B e in g There " Well. kmda. The idea that dus guy just happens to look like the president is glossed over, as well it should be. and there’s only one scene where they're in the same shot. Special effects are not the point here
Actually, the point lies somewhere in the manipulation of the American system by politicians and the media. In fact, cameos by everybody from John McLaughlin to Oliver Stone (he's tm ly hilarious) are intended to make the point that the media is in cahoots w ith the p o liticians to keep any and all truth away from the people You haw to check
twice to make sure Ross Perot didn't write this movie, but he's not that funny.
A ll the plot problems that could have hampered this movie are hanied nicely, as they were in big When the real prez has his massive stroke im the latest Hollywood political cliche, he's having sex with his secretary at the time: apparently Ross and Reitman saw T i e Lhstin -
guisiec G e n tle m a n , among other movies . the slim y chief of staff Trank Langeila. looking viperish) and press secretary Kevin Dunn dec.de to
substitute the lookalike for long enough to eliminate the vice president -Ber. Kingsley and have langeila made president Tmst me
O f course, what they don't count on is the shot in the arm Dave brings to the presidency. Rejuvenating both his popularity and his marriage. Dave does the president a favor vif only he were able to get up o ff his hospital bed' that he probably wouldn't appreciate
In scenes w ith First Lady Sigourney Weaver — who actually manages to lighten up and be likeable in this movie — Kline perfectly blends Dave's naivete w ith something approaching wisdom. Fran Capra would lie proud. Mel Brvxvks would have teen funnier, but all comedies aren't made alike.
The first word that comes to mind when considering Date is "pleasant.'' Not ggod. not great, not hilarious, just pleasant. It takes you on a 112-minute ride that isn't a il worrisome and :s enjoyable along the way Sometimes you shoudn t ask for more than that.

Natasha’s StarsARIES (March 21 to April 19) This
w ill he a very busy week for you on the domestic scene. You w ill no longer be able to put o ff that spring cleaning, so get to it. Social invitations beckon this weekend, so relax and indulge.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) There w ill be some clouds on the horizon this week at work, but you can get through this if you hold on to your patience Someone behind the scenes w ill come to your aid, so be sure to express your gratitude. Feel free to get out in the warm weather this weekend.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It is clear this week that others around youjust can't seem to understand what you are trying to get across. Rather than react in frustration, it would be a wise idea to find a better way to communicate. By week’s end, all w ill be resoived to your satisfaction.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Others w ill find it hard to get your attention this week. You seem to be very caught up on a social merry-go- round, and that’s fine — for now However, do be sure to keep a tight rein on your spending. It's also a good idea to just “ veg" out this weekend.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) You’re feeling somewhat pressured this week to tie up loose ends on certain projects that need your finishing touches. Once all that is done, you w ill have a clear head and w ill be able to tackle any other problems which may arise.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You can sometimes be a bit too exacting with friends and family, and this won’t go over well this week at a ll. Make an effort to put things into a better perspective and peace w ill result The weekend looks like a good time to renew old ties
LIBRA September 23 to October 22) You’re in a high-energy mode this week, so take advantage of this. You know how you get — up one moment, dead tired the next. Co-workers and family won’t be able to keep up with you, but you’ll get a lot accomplished.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem ber 21) It appears that travel is in the stars for you now, so get out those brochures and plan a little getaway. If you put your mind to it, you’ll be able to take this mini-vacation in a frugal manner. By all means, bring the kiddies along.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Money matters w ill fall into place now since finances are favored. You w ill have the magic touch when it comes to wise investing, so take advantage o f this now. Romance is favored this weekend, whether single or married. Cozy, candlelit dinners are in order.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your attention w ill be wandering this week You’ll want to concentrate on anything but work However, resist this urge and get cracking A very important project which can be lucrative in the long run needs your fine touch.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) The beginning of the week w ill be a no-nonsense time for you. Everyone at work seeks you out for your opinion, and you’ll have the answers. Higher-ups w ill notice, and this is to your advantage. Playtime lie ckons later on.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Enjoy yourself this week with hobbies and outdoor activities, but take care not to get too tired. Feel free to take pride in your surroundings. You’ve worked hard, and the results are very obvious

N unsense. the zany, awani-wmnuig and pher.CT.cr.ally popular musical comedy which has beer, running for a decade or. New' York's Theater Row. is nothing if not a lark
The show is composed o f a senes o f comedy sketches monologues. and novelty musical numbers revolving around the eS'ons of five New Jersey nuns to raise money m order to properly bur. tour their fellow sisters who have fallen victim to a tainted v.ch.yssotse
H aiing stored the four sisters m the convent fieezer. lew :r. funds because of the Mother Superior's imprudent purchase o f a Be ta r tax w ith the order's money, the five remaining L ittle Sisters of Hoccker take to the stage in order to entertain and inspire audiences whole m ilking their pockets. The ensuing two acts find the sisters tajvdur.cire singing, and joking their way toward a r.ew coder
Dan Goggm. who wrote the book, music, ar.d lyrics for the s ir - like ly had no idea how enormously successful .V its n * ' w .-u li be.-:me and perhaps neither did the Forum Theatre in Merucher. wfuch so: rod a m^jor h it w ith the show's engagement last fa ll ar.d thus brings the sisters back for a run through June 6

The fact remains, though, that N un sen se -s a : re-jeke -vs r farce, but one which a large number cf audience member; : . r welcome when so expertly performed.

Love makes stars shineSinger Darlene L ove to headline South I ’la infield benefit
By WILLIAM WESTHOVEN WeekendPlus Editor
T he South Plainfield Cultural Aita Commission and The PViends o f the Arts have a new friend, and w ith her
help, they hope to make even more new friends.
Saturday, May 15, chart-topping singer Darlene Love w ill headline a lienefit performance for the South Plainfield Police Athletic [/■ague Building Fund and Summer Drama Workshop. The busy evening, which gets underway at 7:30 p.m., w ill also feature a variety of talented local performaers, in cluding pianist Paul DiDario, singer songwriter Marguerite Tiger, the ’50s acapella group Jersey Dream, Kenneth Faulkner-Alexander and Karen Mack, the rock band M idnight Mirage, singer Tony Howard, dance numbers from area companies and still more musical numbers from members o f the Villagers’ Bam Theatre production o f Into the Woods.
But the big draw w ill be the “unplugged” performance o f Darlene Love, who many know these days from her recurring role as Danny Glover’s wife in the Lethal Weapon movie series. Educated music fans know her better, though, as the often-uncredited lead singer o f bands championed by the legendary Phil Spector. who produced countless hits in the ’60s for groups like the Crystals, the Ronettes and the rest o f the many groups featunng Specter's infamous "Wall of Sound.”
Sixx-ifically, Love sang lead on such hits as “He’s a Rebel." "And Then He Kissed Me," and “Da Do Ron Ron." and also contributed vocals to the hits of such wide-ranging artists as Sam Cooke. Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra and even Bon Jovi.
These days, her days and nights are filled w ith the development of D arlene L ove , P o r t r a it o f a S in g e r , her autobiographical musical show
Darien* Love w ill take time out her busy schedule to headline the South P lainfield “ N ight o f S ta rt” benefit Saturday, May 15.
which has drawn critical raves and is enjoying an extended run at the Bottom Line, a major Manhattan showcase Plans are in the works for Love to take the show on a national tour and possibly later to London, where her popularity has endured even more th=n in her native land.
Yet somehow, the self-described “Queen of the Benefits" is finding time to help out a good cause m South Plainfield, where fans w ill be in for a special treat - a brief, but unique performance stripped of the “Wall o f Scund” and even most of the large band she’s using at the Bottom Lane.
“ I was always used to surging with just a piano m church, so it won't be that different for me,” said Love, whose father was a preacher. “ It's nice to have a chance to smg full-voice, something Ph-i Spector never allowed me to do He also sped up the recordings to make my voice sound higher and more innocent When people hear me sm g now. they say
ton fi,o _ ,u . .. . >"au used to shig higher.’ but I justte ll them That am t me. honey.Love w ill perform w ith an accompanist on piano and synthesizer
along w ith three backup singers, and promises to concentrate or. her hits as opposed to the combination of old favorites, gospel standards and new songs she’s performemg in her Bottom Line Show
"They're songs everybody w ill recognize, they just don’t always know Lm on them." she said “Performing this way. you can’t hide behind the music, so you'll find out if I can really sing or not."
Despite her successful acting career, which includes featured roles m such past Broadway fare as L ea d e* o f the P a ck and the musical version of C a m e , Love plans to keep her mam focus on her singing.
“ I wasn't looking to get mto acting; it a ll began w ith Leader o f the Pack, and when you do something like that, you start to get a lot of calls, she said “ But 1 feel blessed to have fallen mto something Uke Lethal Weapon, not only to do one. but three!”

W hat’s the b u zz?liuzzy's serves up an Olde English pub atmosphere
Bv MICK1 PULSINELL1 Culinary CorrespondentIt' Ixcn over two years since I
last had dinner at B u sy 's In Piscataway. Not lunch, but d inner. Whenever I ’m in the area
during lunch hour, I stop in for their roasted clams, which they cook on a grill, serve w ith drawn butter and are one of my all-time favorites.
The atmosphere is both lively and friendly, as you’re sure to notice as soon as you walk in through the large bar area. Observe the customers sitting at the bar or in the dining room — they're a mixture o f a ll ages.
Hanging from the walls in the bar arc signs of famous English inns When my husband was in the Army he spent several weeks on leave in London. What he remembered most about the English pubs was the same atmosphere at Buzzys.a fusion of ages m friendly chatter. Perhaps that’s the reason for the English inn signs.
The informal dining room is the same. There were tables o f families with young children, college-age students and middle-age patrons like us.
The dining room theme is nautical w ith many hand-carved wood ngns including a scene o f the dock at Nantucket. Hanging from the a iling is a large telescope. Ordered, but not yet installed, is a stained giass window that w ill face the side street
Our waitress Christine was friendly, cheerful and helpful. She brought us several plates to share appetizers, answered any questions we had a' 1 it the menu items and even suggested a half-portion for dessert with the other half wrapped to take home.
IV is heed that one o f the owners, David Bnssiere. and his hostess, i pi d at each table. I said it was a friendly place and it really is!
Huzzy’s menu is eclectic m ix o f regional American and Italian. The I ted menu is small, but this is complemented by a hand-written : 1 ■ :al menu o f the day (with pnees) two pages long Appi 'vers included old standards such as nachos. potato skins and
i id mozzarella sticks, as well as non-standard Maine steamers, broiled 1 ■ ' New' Zealand mussels and seafood stuffed mushrooms. Their r ■ ranged from $4.D5-$5.95.
Hicy have a small sandwich menu that includes hot dogs, burgers, h .bens, cheese steak and French dip. The hot dog. served w ith baked I" .hi and cole slaw cost $3.45 and the New York steak and cheese with I'1 n iv li fries sells for $6.45.
Kntrees, too numerous to mention, include a m ixture o f everything 'em can order steak, London broil, roast duck or stuffed pork chop ScaliHxl six.'cialties include shrimp scampi, stuffed flounder, baked hah-

lobster and shrimp fra cLahlo and veal Mediterranean They even have fish and chips and prune rib The pnees o f entrees range from 5? S5 for the fish and chips tc $17 9$ for the surf and tu rf But most o f the items are in the $9.00 to $1301 neighborhood.
For starters, my husband had the stuffed f . : t cherry peppers $4 95 and I ordered the shrimp tempura So 95 Trre five peppers were stuffed w ith prosciutto and topped wtth mozzarella tr.eese and then baked He ate three of them and our waitress wrapped the remainder to go I f you like spicy hot food, try them.
My four large shrimp were batter-crippe-i .-.r.u then deep-fried They wore very light and tender
Our entrees consisted o f one item, from the special menu and one from the regular menu. My husbands selection a large park chop was stuffed w ith sausage and breading $9 95 and served wtth an apple
I had the Steak nod shnrro - . .n r $ i4e ; Hus eer.sisteci of eu -i.rn : sauteed m a scar.tr; u iic . and r. v . sue steak cockedmedium-rare What a wonderful selection - two my favorites sore

Winewith Reason
Marilyn Corm ackI hope you're not going to
get bored hearing aDout bottles ol wine for the next couple weeks. It's just that I've been to many (too many!) wine tastings in the last couple of weeks, and I'd be remiss if I didn't call your attention to some pretty outstanding bottles! I'm still working on the Fedway tasting notes, so let's continue from last week
Jekel V ineyards Sceptre Chardonnay 1988
What surprised and de- ighted me about this bottle
was its very simple, clean presentation. It is a very "fru it first' wine, with loads of apple, pineapple, and citrus flavors. The acid is tart, bright and refreshing. No oak overkill here; a well balanced, weii-made wine for anytime.
Adler FelsGewurztraminer 1992When I first came to this
table, I wanted to try the Chardonnay, Un-reserved, just because I knew the winemaker had a sense of humor.I opted for the Gewurz instead, and I'm glad I did. The wine showed a great deal of varietal aromas and flavors, chock full of linalool and spice Refreshing acidity balanced the perceptible sugar nicely and the finish was completely clean. If you like Gewurz at all, you can't help but like this bottle
Ploase remember that since these wines are just now being presented to your liquor storo owners, they might not bo on the shelves yet. But, kooj) them In the back of your bond, and if you see them in Hie near future, don't hesitate lo pick one up. And, enjoyl

Seniors sow their oatsResavy strives to be a Legend in local Senior Softball LeagueBy CMOTVL FENSKEFORBES NEWSPAPERS
T heir names may never be household words like Ruth, Mantle or DiMaggio. but they’re legends none
theless.Although the name Legends on
their baseball caps refers to the sports bar that sponsors their team, the players qualify for the title by not only their ages but also their accomplishmfnts in life.
The Legends play in an over-40 softball league, one of a growing number o f Senior Softball Leagues across the country. It is a segment of the sport that has grown to in clude numerous over-50 teams across the country and has become organized to the point of having w inter camps m Florida and their own World Series.
When George Resavy started playing ball nearly 37 years ago, he was a teacher at Branchburg Cen
tral School. As the years progressed and he went from teacher to principal, the idea of not playing never occurred to him. The emergence of the new senior leagues fit right in and now. at the age o f 60, George tries to fit as many games as he can into his busy schedule.
“ I don’t feel any older," he says. “ I feel that I can compete."
The only concession he makes is that, as a catcher, he kneels on one leg behind the plate. "I don't stoop anymore," he laughs.
In between games he tries to keep in shape not by formal exercise but rather by building exercise into his everyday life "WTien I have to make contact w ith a teacher. instead o f getting on the phone I ’ll make a point o f going to see the teacher in between classes. At home, I ’ll push the riding lawn mower whenever possible and I ’ll run down the basement stairs and help around the house as much as I can. I 'll even walk to the store for
a card,” he says, explaining his fit and trim appearance. “ I don’t usually rest too much. I'm just the kind of person who has to keepactive."
He admits, however, to anticipating retirement in two years — but definitely not because he's tired o f the job.
“ I have not lost my enthusiasm for coming to work The people are wonderful. The kids are really tremendous. They're neat to work w ith," he smiles.
But retirement w ill not mean the end of George's busy life "There's never a tim e to stop. TO be busy w ith activities around the house. I always have something to do," he says. Add to that managing some property he mens m Pennsylvania and helping the older of his two sons w ith his landscaping business
And what about softball'1 How long w ill he keep on swinging the lumber"
"As long as I can."

Sain Kuna is not a man who likes to be idle When I arrived for our interview. he was out on his front steps fixing a loose shingle, after a (Gil
day at work. Walking me to the door when I was leaving, he stepped outside again to resume his task .After an hour spent hearing the details o f Mr. Kuna's various careers. 1 wasn't surprised
These days, Mr Kuna's "work" is Hunterdon Furniture Stripping and the Lebanon Antique Center, set in several buildings Mr Kuna is in the process of renovating on five acres in Lebanon While Mr Kuna adnuts to a lifelong interest in antiques, most o f his life has been spent pursuing other careers. Careers in the plural is the operative word here. Kuna has cultivated more livelihoods sirvglehandedly than a handful of men. Asked about his habit o f keeping several tilings on the burner. Mr Kuna simply replied, " I like accomplishment”
Starting work at Merck before he had completed his bachelor's degree, Mr. Kuna nonetheless begun to develop a national reputation for his work in the biocontrol and research departments. After World War 11. the government commended Mr. Kuna for his work w ith Atabrine, a synthetic drugi ' i . i « t . i # # i i , i i . i > , * i , ' • L ' / ' i j i

Mr. Kuna also helped develop tests that measured the safety of penicillin, tests that made it possible for Merck to produce larger quantities of the drug that was the wonder of its tune.
He didn’t reserve his talents for the laboratory alone; in 1947, he helped develop the pharmacology department at Temple University, teaching 18 hours a week, as well as

It's a social and support group, and members design the program themselves Many seniors wanted a college experience and now, free of other responsibilities and with the tuition waiver, they are very enthusiastic students, eager to jo in college activities, contribute the ir wisdom and learn from others."
Ms. Houpt mentioned two recent in spirational graduates. A female senior graduated two years ago at age 70 with a Liberal .Arts degree and continued on to Rutgers to study political science. A male, eight years into remission from cancer, is now graduating at age 67 A construction worker most o f his life, who never went to college, he said after he got well, he planned to get a degree.

Seniors are a presence at Raritan Valley Community College in North Branch as well. John Graf, J r, director o f public relations. said, "From teens to the golden age, we have opportunities for the entire community " Glass said seniors take both day and evening classes, for credit and noncredit Forty-two students 55 and older registered lo r credit courses for the fa ll 1990 and spring 199] semesters For fa ll 1991 and spring 1992, that figure held steady at 40 However, for fall 1992 and spring 1993 that number jumped to 108
Courses taken include Early Childhood Education, Business Management Marketing, Humanities. Liberal Arts, Legal Assistant, Crim inal Justice.

Yet another senior discount is offered at the Somerset County Technical Institute. Adult Continuing Education Division to those 62 and older Joseph Malone, d irector. said classes are less S45 per class Malone said. “Since most continuing ed courses are S45 to $60. the cost is nominal Many seniors take one-semester trade- oriented courses, such as small engine repair, residential plumbing and automotive mechanics Some full-tim e day courses range from $80 to $100. such as computers and computer-aided drafting Seniors would get a $5 discount on these as well "
According to Malone, the technical institute works in conjunction with RVCC to provide technical courses for students who are taking the ir academic courses at RVCC last year we had a 70-year-old student
graduate from the nursing program.”Malone said. "The senior students stabi
lize tile school community, extend themselves to younger students and carry an a ir o f wisdom Once they get over the generation gap, older and younger students really get along Being a student revitalizes the older people, and they teach tilings to the younger students, such as work ex- peiicncvs, that they can t learn from a text IxKik We really encourage senior citizens to register."

Alternatives to nursing homes plentifulBy AMY GARVEYSPECIAL CO RREStVXPENT
T here has been much talk recently about the sandwich generation, and such a term has perhaps never
been more true Many adults today find themselves sandwiched between the needs o f their children and the needs o f their aging parents. suddenly responsible for the care of both This is no easy feat, considering that many families today are twe-career households, and many children attend day care and after-schoh programs. For those who don't want to place their elderly parents in a nursing home, daily care is a big problem.
Whhe some agng people require round-the-clock care, many senior citizens need only limned help w ith personal care and some daily supervision.

KunaContinued front page 3
taking classes for his master’s degree. and continuing lus work at Merck
The scientist went on to achieve his Ph-D. s till working full-tim e and supporting a family
More recently Mr Kuna was asked to found a new toxicology department at Rutgers University, and was given a free hand in de veloping the program Proud of the work he s done for the school he said. " I gave them one o f the best departments in the country."
On May 6 Rutgers honored Mr Kuna by unveiling his portra it and naming a Distinguished Lectureship after him
Mr Kuna is no stranger to commendations such as these, he has written numerous scholarly papers. has several patents in his name is listed in A m e r ic a n E d u
cators , A m e r ic a n .Men o f Scurnre,
W h o ’s W ho in F in a n c e and Who1* W ho tn the East, and Who’s Who in A m e r ic a - He is also a feLlow o f the New Jersey Medical Society, and a member o f the New York Academy of Science.
Kuna nas not been content to rest on his scientific laurels, however.
For 20 years, he worked si-
muhareously w ith the First Bank of Coloma and Merck, advancing to the offices o f president, chief financial officer and chairman of the board at that bank.
For several years before World War n. he blew ornamental glass w ith handmade equipment to earn extra money, and the purchase of the land where his furniture business is now located was originally intended for use as a winery. .As Mr. Kuna’s wife said. "He doesn't waste a m inute "
Many 79-year-oki men m ight be content to sit back and enjoy life for a while, refecting on the achievements o f two sons who have earned Pi. .0 ar.d doctoral degrees and Two grandchildren who are already attending college
Not Mr. Kuna trie former scientist couldn't think o f a thing he likes tn do for relaxation out did mention that he has begun organizing arid wnting his autobiography
Perhaps Mr Kuna's secret lies in the fact that all o f his careers have brought h im the enjoyment many people receive from hobbies.
Searching for accomplishment, Mr Kuna has also found the kind o f satisfaction that knows no age lim it and is brsind to engender more achievements in the years to come.

Demographic changes dictate that older individuals wifi play an increasingly important role in the Unit

An orgarxzaton called Green Thome Inc -.s dedicated to assist- ng indMduais age 55 and up to certain training and employment Green Thumb is a Senior Community Sernce Employment Program funded by the U S Depart meet at Labor and sponsored by the Natrona) Farmers Union since ’ 965 The ongma) pilot project was desgned to employ older impov ensued Americans in highway maintenance and beautification in New Jersey, Minnesota Arkansas and Oregon The program, which was ttie first ard is toe largesl SCSEP fas evolved into a national nonprofit employment and training group with ru e r 18.500 participants m 44 -.tale-, and Puerto Rico 'work mg part-time m more than 10,000 nonprofit and gr//emrnerit organize tuns More than 50 percent of SCSEP enrollees are 65 or older, and more lhan 25 percent are 70 or older
About 68 percent ol Green Thumb participants are women em ployed in increasingly skilled clerical and paraprolessional jobs More than 20 percent are placed in per manent jobs Ml the program every
year.Wendy Rhodes, manager of field
operations for the New Jersey Green Thumb program, explains that two eligibility criteria exist to enroll in toe program. Enrollees must be 55 or over and must be income eligible Income lor a family of one must not exceed $8,515 including social security or $11,490 for a family of two. That figure continues to increase if family size is larger than two. The goaf is to upgrade social and economic conditions through employment for those who need it most.
Green Thumb provides services in all New Jersey counties, except Essex The first step tor a potential enrollee is pre assessment An mdi xidual usually speaks on toe phone with a Green Thumb representative who determines eligibility
Once eligibility is determined, toe individual will meet with a Green Thumb area supervisor to appraise background, interests and hobbies
The program can then go to work for that individual in tour ways 1. through toe Senior Community Service Employment Project (SCSEP), 2 on-the-job training; 3. classroom instruction and training; 4 direct placement ol a qualified individual into an open position
Ms Rhodes says, "An important part of the area supervisor's job is to know all services available in too community he or she serves Re cruitmont and assessment are our strengths."

Stevens holds a prom slated for all agesBy PAULA V. INQRASSIAEX )KHKN NKWSPAI’KIO.
Aisenior prom with a twist
was held at John P. Stevens High Sehixil re ■ently
The hosts and hostesses for the evening were 50 students at John P Stevens High School and Edison High School Hut the 150 guests o f honor were members of the township’s senior citizens clubs.
T h is is our second year and hopefully it bridges the generation gap and lets senior citizens see wonderful students at their best,” said Chris Polyak, Student Council advisor at John P. Stevens High School. " It ’s an opportunity for students to meet with senior c itizens and break down the stereotypes they have of older people. We’re trying to build a stronger sense of community. This is Edison High School’s and John P. Stevens High School's service project to give something back to the community that serves them ."
Izist year the students involved were from John P. Stevens High School, but this year the scope was widened to include interested Edison High School students
We wanted people to feel we’re not two separate parts o f a town but one town We don’t like to see tlie town divided into north and south," Ms. Polyak said
Ms Polyak worked closely with Joe Kovac, Student Council adiv sor at John P Stevens High School, to organize the event. Next year the senior prom is expected to be held at Edison High School.
The affair was catered by John P. Stevens High School senior Patti Yahn. who w ili be attending culinary college as a foods mayor and started her own catering business.
“This was her first professional catering job and everyone raved about the food.” Ms Polyak said. “ People were asking for her business card and for reapes ”
Students brought small favors including plants, lottery tickets, picture frames and garden shovels for their guests.
For their part, the senior citizens are establishing a scholarship fund to benefit students active in comm unity affairs coordinated through the township Senior Citizen Department.
The Lindeneau Senior Citizens Club presented students w ith a certificate o f appreciation - , CXAME fvEWSPAPERS
