TRAINING TO SAVE LIVES ESSEX COUNTY

County’s in top shape, says execB y H a r r y Tru m b o reof The Item

Joseph DiVmcenzo is feeling bullish about Essex County.

The Essex County executive said this week the county is finan­cially healthier than it has been in years. As he works on the county’s 2007 budget, DiVmcenzo said oth­ers are becoming bullish as well.

DiVmcenzo said Essex County earned a AA bond rating this year, and added, "By 2010,1 want it to have a AAA rating.” .

The county executive was quick to make his case.

“Today we have a $35 million surplus,” he said. “The county tax has gone down the last five years 6 percent”

DiVmcenzo also said the coun­ty has continued to refurbish its facilities. He said he is committed to a program to improve South

Mountain Reservation and to con­tinue to upgrade facilities such as the Richanl J. Codev Area at South Mountain, the Kip’s Castle proper­ty on the Verona-Montclair border and the Turtle Back Zoo.

“Revenues at the zoo have increased dramaticaDy,” DiVmcen­zo said. Attendance has more than doubled and the zoo has generated $1 million in revenues and covers 80 percent of its costs, something almost unheard of for a zoo, he said.

“My goal is to make every fatal­ity pay for itself’ DiVincenzo said.

Township Committeewoman Ellen Steinberg, who attended DiVincenzo’s State of the County speech Jan. 22 in Cedar Grove, said while the county executive spoke of building projects through­out the county, it was his

Group seeking larger supportB y P a tric ia H a rrisof The item

The township’s deer task force is continuing its efforts to get the word out on the need for deer removal and gamer support from neighboring communities and the county for a concerted deer removal effort

Martine Donofrio, the task force’s chairman, said Monday a letter from the mayor will be placed in the township’s spring newsletter explaining the process the task force went through in developing its recommendations for a deer removal program. The piece will also include a section of frequently asked questions that wiD' seek to address wrhat Donofrio called misconceptions about the methods to be used and how they will affect residents personally.

“We want people to know it’s a weli-thoughiout program that wifi be very- safe and humane to ani­mals,” Donofrio said.

Meanwhile, Donofrio said, she has delivered presentations in sev­eral neighboring municipalities interested in beginning their own deer removal programs. She has met with officials in Maplewood

and Livingston, and those com­munities have already passed reso­lutions calling for deer removal programs. She said she is sched­uled to meet with West Orange’s town council on Tuesday

Plans are also in the works for the task force’s chairman to appear before the Essex County Board of Chosen Freeholders later this month. At that time, Donofrio said, she plans to lobby for county approval for community-based deer management programs that wrould be conducted in foe South Mountain Reservation.

Each of the municipalities that contain portions of the reservation would be required to submit its own application for a deer man­agement program to the state, and the county would be required to give its approval for the programs, according to Donofrio. Having many communities expressing an interest in conducting programs could influence the county’s posi­tion, she indicated.

“I t makes good sense for Mill- bum to enlist the aid of neighbor­ing communities^’ she said.

In addition, Donofrio has also

ENVIRONMENT

BOE hears report on idlingB y H a r r y Tru m b o reof The Item

Jennifer Duckworth is hoping to make the air around the public schools a little cleaner for students.

Duckworth, a township resident who is also an environmental engi­neer, is trying to spread the word about the dangers caused by idling vehicles, particularly those waiting in drop-off or pickup lines around the schools.

“1 started the research on my own two years ago,” Duckworth said this week. “While my daugh­ter was attending preschool, I noticed all these cars idling out­side.”

Although she has the support of the township Environmental Com­mission, of which she is a member, her research has been her own, she said.

Duckworth appeared at the Jan. 22 Board of Education meeting to present some of her findings and address what she believes are com­mon misconceptions about idling.

Idling for more than 10 seconds, she said, uses more fuel than

restarting the engine. Duckworth also made the point that prolonged idling can damage engines. Fuel doesn’t undergo complete com­bustion and residues contaminate engine oiL

What’s more, Duekwork added, tests show no more than 30 sec­onds are needed to circulate engine oil and the best way to warm up a vehicle is to drive i t

With a growth in the number of cases of asthma in the student pop­ulation being reported, Duckworth said it is important for parents to be aware of the amount of toxic gases an idling car generates both inside and outside the vehicle.

“It shocked me that the fume build-up inside the car is so high,” she said.

Duckworth is hoping to engage parents in the no idling campaign and asked the board to designate “idle free zones,” promote catpool­ing and name environmental rep­resentatives to monitor air quality- concents at each school

A similar initiative has been launched in Chatham, she said, and tire state Department of Envi­

ronmental Protection has expressed an interest in the anti- idling campaign.

At the meeting, Superintendent of School Richard Brodow said he would raise the issue with individ­ual school PIOs.

Duckworth also told the board there is a state statute that prohibits idling for more than three minutes.

Robert Zeglarski, assistant superintendent for business, stated at the meeting he believed the school district’s bus drivers are complying with the statute.

This week, he further clarified the district’s policy regarding the district drivers and contracted bus services,

“Our policy is a “no idling1 poli- cyf Zeglarski said Bus drivers, he said, are instructed to turn off their engines while discharging or taking on students.

At the middle school, for exam­ple, buses are turned off while stu­dents hoard them at the end of the school day, said Zeglarski.

Residents assist in arrest o f trioB y H a r r y Tru m b o reof The Item

Police are crediting a new will­ingness by the public to report sus­picious activity in residential neigh­borhoods as helping them with the arrest of two men and a juvenile in the township in the eariy morning hours of Jan. 24.

According to reports, police received a call from a resident around 5;15 a.m. that two men were waiking through the neigh­borhood on Inverness Court That was followed by a second call reporting the men walking through backyards in the area around Hobart and Highland avenues.

Police said a third call placed the men on Great Oak Drive where they1 reportedly were observed walking up a driveway.

Responding to the, residence, police did not find the men. How­ever. thev did findia cat cover had

P O L I C E

been pulled off a BMW parked in the driveway.

By now, police, assisted with two officers from Summit, estab­lished a perimeter around Winding Way and at 6:15 a.rtu the suspects were spotted and apprehended. One was a 15-vear old boy horn Newark. The other was identified as Stacey J. Home, 26, also from Newark.

Around the same time, a man approached police at the Short Hills train station and stated he had been a victim of an armed rob­bery by two men whose descrip­tions matched these of the two sus­pects who just had been captured.

According to reports, police soon determined the ‘"victim.” Syied McNeil of Newark, 26, had arrived in the area with the two suspects in a stolen car. which sub­sequently was located parked on Crescent Place. McNeil claimed Home an t the juvenile had pro­

duced a pistol, taken approximate­ly $50 and told him to get out of the car.

Police report searching for a weapon in the surrounding streets, with negative results, and reported the juvenile only had $3.26 in his pocket

.Ail three suspects were charged with receiving stolen property. No robbery charges were fifed. The juvenile was remanded to the Essex County Youth House, and Home and McNeil were turned over to the Essex County Jail.

"This is a fine example of law enforcement and cooperation with our residents,” police Chief Paul Boegershausen said later in the day.

The chief noted that police met with neighborhood groups this M to discuss the high numbers of bur­glaries and said the number of calls reporting suspicious activity has risen in these areas. Boeger­

shausen did not supply a firm number of how many such calls have been received.

T ’ve noticed there are more calls,” the chief sad this week. “We want the people to call. We need

Even a police officer cruising a neighborhood in a patrol car needs the help of neighbors, according to police Sgt Peter Eakfey.

“You can drive through a neigh­borhood every day. but you don’t see those backyards,” said Eakley, who added he also has observed a rise in calls from residents^-

Boegershausen said any resi­dents seeing suspicious activity should call police at the main head quarters number at 973-564-7001. Only when a resident is witnessing an emergency or an incident in progress should he or she dial 9-1- 1. “Those 9-1-1 lines are for emer­gencies,” he said. “We have to keep those lines clear”

A PSE&G representative responding to the emergency reportedly traced the readings to the furnace, which had been shut down while undergoing repairs and had just been turned back on an hour earlier. The PSE&G employee deteimined the flue was cold, causing a backup of the exhaust gas when the furnace ini­tially was fired up.

Teen drinking will be a topic on Ihe agenda at Tuesday night’s Township Committee meeting when an ordinance targeting underage drinking comes up for a second reading.

The ordinance, proposed by Committeewoman Sandra Haintoff at the Jan. 16 meeting, closes a loophole in a state statute that prohibits the possession or consumption of alcohol by anyone under the age of 21 in a public place, but does not prohibit the same actions on private property.

The change in the ordinance would mean police officers investi­gating a complaint who discover underage drinking on private prop­erty would be able to charge the underage drinkers as well any adults responsible.‘ “The police have no more rights

BUSINESS DISTRICT

than they had under the old law,” Haimoff said. ‘‘The reason for the ordinance is that this is where our kids are drinking”

The ordinance, as it was intro­duced to the Committee on Jan. 16, carried scaled-back penalties from its initial version after Com­mittee counsel Christopher Falcon amended sections to bring them in line with the state statute.

Initially, underage drinkers faced fines of $500 for a first offense, $1,000 for a second offense and $2,000 for any subse­quent offense. In addition, the underage drinker would have dri­ving privileges suspended or post­poned for six months and the offender would be required to undergo alcohol and other drug abuse assessment

The version presented Jaa 16 and currently being considered by the Committee lowers the fines to $250 for a first offense and S350

for subsequent offenses. Hie requirement for alcohol abuse assessment has been deleted and the suspension of driving privileges was made optional.

“It was the advice of counsel that the penalties would not be upheld on appeal,” Haimoff explained this week.

Township Committeewoman Ellen Steinberg, who seconded.the ordinance, admitted she had con­cerns when she first read it and wondered if it gave police the pow­ers to enter any home looking for underage drinkers.

“That is not what this ordinance is about” Steinberg said. “It doesn't trample on the Constitution" She said police can only act on a com­plaint or by consent and are being given no additional powers.

Steinberg said she has spoken with police and municipal court officials in Livingston, where a sim­ilar ordinance is in effect She said

she also has spoken with township police juvenile officers and PTO

“The ordinance is meant to encourage a dialogue on this issue,” she said. “It is meant as a deterrent not a punishment"

Haimoff said she has received as many as 30 e-mails urging support for the ordinance and only one opposing the measure.

She made the point that she often receives e-mails on hot but­ton issues such as deer control where the e-mails are identical form letters.

These letters are different according to Haimoff.

“Thejfre heartfelt These are from parents, from what I can gather” she said of the supporters of the ordinance.

If approved by the Committee on Tuesday night the ordinance would become law immediately, Haimoff said.

MHS grad returns to open restaurantB y P a tric ia H a rrisof The Item

Even Marc Cooperman, a 1983 graduate of Millbum High School, seems surprised at the turn of events that has brought him back to live in the area and open his own 99-seat restaurant on Main Street

“For a kid who said he’s never coming home... ‘Never say nev­er,’” Cooperman said Friday as he surveyed the bustling first floor of restaurantmc at 57 Main St, which was scheduled for its offi­cial opening that evening.

In starting his latest venture, the restaurateur has joined with his father, Alan, a local physician who has lived in the township for more than 30 years, and David Burke, a chef who owns several New York City restaurants. The restaurant features fare Cooper­man calls “modem American cui­sine,” and the restaurateur said he is hying to create “a neighbor­hood restaurant with a contem­porary New York City edge.”

Cooperman graduated from Emory University in Atlanta, Ga., with a degree in political science and psychology and immediately began his entrepreneurial career in the hospitality’ industry. He found he had a knack for putting together venues where people wanted to Sock, moving from what he called “less to more sophisticated” ventures.

Cooperman’s first project in Atlanta was a nightclub, Boys and Girls, followed by several other lounges and nightclubs. In 1996 be opened Mumbo Jumbo Bar & Grill, a supper club in downtown Atlanta, and shortly thereafter, created Fusebox, a restaurant that was awarded “Best New Restau­rant in the Country” by Food and Wine magazine in 1999.

When those ventures were bought out, Cooperman turned his sights to the lodging side of the business. In April 2000 he was appointed managing partner of

the Century Hotel in South Beach, Florida. Simultaneously, he developed, helped design and operated the Royal Hotel, also in South Beach.

After selling his stake in those hotels, Cooperman took a year off and traveled throughout Mon­tana, his wife’s home state.

In early 2003 Cooperman moved to Livingston with his fam- ily-his wife, Chevi, and daughter, Sophie, 10. He had a concept in mind, and when he and his father were able to procure a liquor license for consumption on the premises-bought at auction for a half million doliars-the concept became doable. Cooperman began designing the restaurant, with the assistance of local and New York City-based architects, in April 2005.

Construction on the restaurant began in May of last year. In designing the restaurant, which occupies tw’o stories, Cooperman said he tried to maintain the orig­inal character of the 1923 building and create a space that is upbeat yet unpretentious.

The restaurant Incorporates dark woods, plush sofas and chairs and large picture windows. The all-glass front facade opens to allow for sidewalk dining.

By this week, the main level- which houses a bar and lounge area, an open kitchen and a chef s dining room with white table- c lo th s -w a s o p e n fo r business.

The upstairs level, which offers more casual dining as well as a private dining room featuring state-of-the-art audiovisual equip­ment, is expected to open by next week.

For the time being, the restau­rant is serving dinner nightly, and within the next few months will begin offering lunch on Mondays through Fridays and branch on Saturdays and Sundays. Parking is located south of the restaurant at 75 Main S t

The restaurant has become even more of a family affair, with

another Cooperman on board - Jill, a lawyer who also lives in the area, serving as in-house counsel.

Cooperman said his plans met with favorable approval from the Hanning Board-the approval was given at a single meeting-and he hopes the presence of his restau­

rant will help create synergy in the downtown and build business for other merchants and restaurants.

The payoff for the hours he has poured into his latest project, he noted, will be “the satisfaction of knowing when somebody leaves, they had a great time.”

more than their share of local issues to deal with.For instance, there are budgets to shape and problems to

address with development of downtown areas and residential neighborhoods. In our township, concerns about underage drinking are on the table as w ell as proposals to control the deer population.

IfV ' U N t O t i /

over in Maplewood, the township committee adopted a reso­lution calling for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

Our first reaction was, “Don’t they have anything better to do over there?”

When we reflected on our neighbor’s actions, however, we became a little more supportive.

It’s not the resolution itself that we applaud. Ids the fact that every once in awhile, little towns need to throw a stone and get the attention of the lumbering government officials at the state and federal levels who often forget whom they represent

Taxes may be abstract numbers to a bureaucrat, but they determine whether a house gets a needed repair or a family can take a vacation this year.

And a “surge” in troop levels overseas may mean a change in strategy to a general, but it also may mean life and death for a young man or woman from our community.

Over the past years, this newspaper has noted the accom­plishments of residents who have served proudly in the armed forces.

We interviewed one man who helped build a bridge over the Rhine at Remagan, then watched his brother drive over in a tank. Another man told us about parachuting into Sainte- Mere-Eglise in Normandy the night before D-Day.

We’re spoken with several police officers about their expe­riences in Desert Storm.

And we were there the night Millburn High School students honored 10 alumni who were killed in Vietnam.

There is nothing theoretical about the sacrifices that have been made by the residents of our town and towns and cities across the country.

Yet state lawmakers, currently bumbling their way through S e a r c h in g fo r S c h o o l ways to address tax reform, saw' nothing wrong in passing a bill , , .“freeing” schools from the mandate of observing Veterans Day D U u g et S a n ity and Memorial Day. Fortunately, Gov. Jon Corzine vetoed that bit of callousness.

Many New Jersey soldiers due to return from Iraq recently had their tours of duty extended. We don’t know if any of them are township residents. That really doesn’t matter, however.They are our neighbors, friends and relatives.

The power to make foreign policy, of course, is granted by the Constitution to the executive and legislative branches of the federal government But that does not mean local govern­ments can’t weigh in and make their tr e a s u r e with that pol­icy heard.

“We the people,” after all, refers to us.

additional student parking at more than $20,000 per space when the public is already forced to underwrite a busing system well short of state-determined dis­tance limits.

It pays its superintendent of schools a salary of some $250,000 per year with intermittent increas­es. A salary exceeding that of the governor of New Jersey and the mayor of New York City. It sup­ports courses attended by less than half a dozen students main­tained by teachers and classroom space at taxpayer expense.

Finally it has instituted a huge costly ancillary non-instructioral administrative bureaucracy that has no direct bearing on student education per se or the enhance­ment of competitive student col­lege admissions.

Many expenses that are dearly parental responsibilities are foist­ed on the public by the BOE.

All this has been accomplished through 50 percent of the huge community tax load which is one of the highest in the state of New Jersey and which in turn is the highest of ary state in the nation.

The BOE is systematically destroying the formerly stable infrastructure of our township. It is forcing the departure of lifetime residents who as senior citizens on limited fixed incomes can no longer afford to live here.

Other non-beneficiarics of this continuing BOE largess ate also moving away. One has only tonote the plethora of “for sale” signs currently rampant through­out all areas of our community.

As a beginning of this essential “trimming” process, the bulk of our community should applaud these state BOE budget caps and strongly encourage further efforts in this direction.

The members of the BOE have sadly demonstrated that they feel no public responsibility

t

to control their budgets and to limit their task to the “thorough arid effident” education of their students as mandated and defined by the state.

This is clearly’ demonstrated in the small print of the School Election Sample Ballot of the BOE’s most recent exercise in obtaining public funding on April 18,2006, which states, “The school district has proposed pro­grams and services in addition to the core curriculum content stan­dard adopted by the State Board ofEducation.”

Consequently the state must force this responsibility on BOEs such as ours who ignore it as these budgetary constraints will benefit our township and all its residents as a whole if we are to survive as a functioning, cohesive community.

The Danielle Bren- der Fund co-sponsors this event annually with our local chapter of

D’Alessio, the high schools ath­letic director, Dan Brundage, superintendent of physical educa­tion who is also a Red Cross instructor, Bonnie Wofey, audio/visual department, and the custodial staff at Millbum Town­ship Schools for their support of our event

Thank you to the more than 40 Red Cross volunteer instructors from chapters throughout the state who forfeited a leisurely Sunday to provide training and equipment for the attendees and to the 50 volunteers who helped with registration, food service and general assistance throughout the day.

One day a year, what you wear truly is a matter of life and death.

Help us shine a big bright red light on the No. 1 killer and No. 1 health threat facing women today-heart

National Wear Red Day for Women and the American Heart Association Go Red For Women movement, sponsored by Macy’s, have helped awareness that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women jump from 30 percent to 55 percent among women in only a few years. Still nearly 14,000 New Jersey women continue to die annually from heart disease and stroke. Help us continue the progress. Wear something red tomorrow.

Tony DeSAREThursday, February 1 5 ,2 0 0 7TONY DeSARE (mvw.tonydesare.com) has become one of New York’s hottest new young singer/pianists. “DeSare is the real deal,’ states the New York Post. His sound is romantic, swinging, sensuai, and sophisticated pop/jazz. Though it can be said that Tony is part of the new breed of young singers keeping

classic American music alive, what sets Tony apart is his ability to write original material that sounds fresh and at the same time blends seamlessly with the classics. Tony has the capability to glide from Gershwin to Tom Waits to one of his own songs with 'dapper charm" and ease. Tony's shows are a musical vision steeped in the pop tradition as much as in jazz. In 2000, he was cast in the Off-Broadway hit Our Sinatra. in which he later was the star when that show was revived at the Birdland jazz club. Tony has also been a featured performer a t Jitly’s, the Rat Pack-era celebrity hangout owned by Frank Sinatra's best friend, in addition to his starring role in Our Sinatra 3t 8ird!and, Tony headlined his own night there as well. Tony DeSare at the piano boasts a dapper charm, offering a knockout turn with 'Birth of the Blues' and a breezy hit from the Tommy Dorsey days, ‘Oh, look at Me Now" - Robert L. Daniels. Variety magazine. “His cool, elegant styling at the keyboard is reflected in his singing of such songs as 'You're Sensational,’ and turning The Birth of the Blues' and 'Oh, Look at Me Now' into piano showpieces" - Backstage magazine. *275093

Student artist Linda Gao’s charcoal sketch of sunglasses wrapped in fabric, above, and a portrait in colored pencil by another student Daryi Seitchik, detail below, were selected to represent Miliburn High School in the current Em erging Artists 2006-07 exhibition at the Bayonne Public Library.

High school artists selected for show

Two Miliburn High School art students were selected to compete in “Emerging Artists 2006-07’ the 19th annual high school art exhi­bition, conducted by the Art Administrators of New Jersey at the Bayonne Public Library Art Gallery.

The high school art department selected two entrants from Mill- bum - the number allowed by a school with 1,000 students or more: juniors Linda Gao and Daryl Seitchik. This is Daryl’s sec­ond year with a work chosen for the exhibition.

The piece by Linda was created during a unit in which the Advanced Placement Art students studied the artist Christo, who alters (he perception of objects by obscuring them with draped fabric. The students viewed rendering Christo creates of his proposed projects, and then wrapped their own objects and drew them using black and white charcoal on toned paper.

Daryl exhibited a colored pencil piece from a series of self-portraits she is creating for her Advanced Placement Studio .Art portfolio. There will be a dozen works in aB, with each piece in a specific medi­um chosen to match the feeling of the age portrayed in the picture.

Kean University professors will jury the show.

Awards will be presented at the show reception on Saturday. Stu­dents who receive either a Merit or Honorable Mention Award are eli­gible to compete for an Achieve­

ment Award of $200 provided by the Art Administrators. That recip­ient also is nominated to receive a New Jersey Governor’s Award in the spring.

The Wolverine Patrol of Boy Scout Troop 17, from left, Jack Napor, Daniel Miller, Clayton Elder, Thomas Nascone, Chris Nascone and Aram Kim, plans its next move at the Klondike Derby held in South Mountain Reservation.

Boy Scouts hit the Klondike TrailA thin blanket of snow trans­

formed Mayapple Hill in the South Mountain Reservation into the gold rush days of the Yukon Terri­tory' on Jan. 20 for more than 200 Boy Scouts who participated in the Klondike Derby.

Boy Scout Troop 17, SL Rose of Lima Church, had 23 Scouts divid­ed into three patrols competing against other patrols from other troops in this annual event spon­sored by the Orange Mountains District, Northern New Jersey Council of the Boy Scouts of America.

Each “town” in the Klondike had a different Scout skill to per­form and the patrols were tested on its skills in fire building, knot tying, shelter building, first aid and teamwork. With the temperature

in the mid-30s and a gusty wind, the Scouts were also tested on being prepared for the outdoor weather conditions.

Troop 17 hosted the “town” of Bear Paw Pass, which tested the Scouts on emergency shelter build­ing. “Mayors” Mike Middleton and Laszlo Novak provided adult lead­ership at the town and were assist­ed by Troop 17 youth leaders P.J. Judge, Bifly Dries, Chris Hether- ington and Billy Thompson. .Also providing adult support were police Sgt Peter Eakley, Anthony Moschetta, Bob Dries, Paul Judge and Fred Hrinuk.

A ll boys 11-years-old or older are invited to jo in Troop 17. Troop meetings are every Thursday from 7:30 to 9 p.m.

WRESTLING

M illhurn earns section tourney berth

B y J i m Connellyof The Item

In each of the past two seasons the Millbum High School varsity wrestling team had punched its ticket to the New jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Associa­tion slate sectional tournament w'ell in advance of the qualifying deadline.

That -was not the case this time around as the Millets had to record a pair of wins on the eve of the state cutoff date just to gain the field for the New Jersey State Inter­scholastic Athletic Association North Jersey, Section 2, Group 5 tournament (see related story below}.

The Millers stood at 9-10 fol­lowing a 44-27 loss to Northern Hills Conference, Skyline Division rival Wayne Valley on Jan. 24, meaning the local matmen would have to sweep Barringer and host Hudson Catholic on Friday night in Jersey City to avoid being left out of the state tourney field.

Millbum took care of business by knocking off an undermanned Barringer squad 57-15 to even its record at 10-10 in its opening match of the night The Millers sewed up a section playoff berth with a 53-27 rout of Hudson Catholic in the nighirap.

“It is very gratifying to qualify for the playoffs,’- Miller head coach Mike Artigliere. t:We lost a tot from last year, but this team really stepped up and got better as the season progressed.”

This past Friday night’s match against two outclassed squads allowed .Artigliere to rest of several of his starters.

Just ax bouts took place in the Millbum-Barringer match.

Prevailing for the local matmen were sophomore Donald Aum- hammer, junior Arty Peari and junior Kevin MeCarville.

Aumhaimner decked Bar­ringers Edward Giufiano in 1:35 at 130 pounds. Pearl pinned Bar­ringer's Onix Aviles in 5:33 at 135 pounds. MeCarville edged the Blue Bears’ Clint Lewis 9-8 at 171 pounds.

The Millers gained 42 points via seven forfeit victories.

five falls sparked Millbum to its 26-point defeat of Hudson Catholic.

Aumhammer (125 pounds), senior Alex Pelham-Webb (135 pounds). Pear! (140 pounds) senior Chase Helwig (160 pounds), MeCarville (189 pounds) and freshman AJ. O’Leary all recorded falls.

Aumhammer, in the second bout of the match, pinned Hudson Catholic’s Miles Mayo in 1:29 to even the score at six.

Consecutive falls by Pelham- Webb and Pearl erased a 12-6 Hudson Catholic advantage.

Pelham-Webb decked Hudson Catholic’s Josh Lipinski in 2:46 to tie the match at 12.

Pearl followed with a pin of the Hawks’ James Dillman in 3:48 to put the Millers in from to stay at 18-12.

Helvvig pinned Dony Rusaco of Hudson Catholic in 5:08. MeCarville needed just 46 seconds to pin the Hawks’ Peter Abdel- massiah at 189 pounds.

O’leary, who was appearing in his first varsity match, pinned Hud­son Catholic’s Joe Santiello in 157.

GIRLS SWIMMING

Mount St. Dominic deals MHS 86-84 loss in meeting o f county powersBy Jim Connellyof The Item

Essex County’s top two girls swim teams hooked up in a thrilling meet Monday night at Newark Academy in Livingston

Visiting Mount S t Dominic, the runner-up to Millbum in last

month’s Essex County Champi­onships, gained a measure of revenge by edging the Millers 86- 84. “It was another heartbreaking loss for the girls, but a meet where they all put their talents, their sportsmanship and their hearts out there, so I couldn’t be prouder)- Miller coach Gina Santianna said.

The setback snapped a modest two-meet winning streak and dropped the Millers to 9-5 on the season.

Milibum’s last two defeats have been by a total of just six points.

Santianna’s squad fell just short despite winning two of the three relays and placing first in five indi­

vidual races. The Millets’ 200-yard freestyle relay team of Angela Hou, Rachel Lieberberg, AJ. van Nispen and Genevieve Fleming placed first in 1:44.92.

Katie Ingjese, Hou, van Nispen and Samantha Swanson won the 400-yard freestyle relay in 3:56.15.

Fleming (200-yard freestyle,

500-yard freestyle) and van Nispen (50-yard freestyle, 100-yard freestyle) each won two events.

Lieberbeig took first place in foe 100-yard butterfly.

“I told the girls going into the meet that win or lose, they should show pride in being county champs and let everyone know it

was a well-deserved team effort and that they did,” Santianna said.

MHS coach records milestone victoryBy Jim Connellyof The Item

A 19-2 drubbing of Newark West Side on Jan. 25 at Plaza Lanes in Madison was of special significance to t ie Millbum High School bowling team for two rea­sons.

The victory rapped a 2-0-1 week for the local bowlers and moved Millbum above the .500 mark for the first time this season at 7-6-1.

For Fritz Jonach, Miliburris 1 lth-year head coach, the win rep­resented a milestone accomplish­ment

The triumph gave Jonach, who has served as Millburn’s coach since the 1996-97 campaign, his 100th career triumph.

“One of the things I'm most proud of over the years is how much respect the sport has gained at Millbum High School,” said Jonach, whose squad dosed out the 2006-07 regular season cam­paign this past Monday afternoon with a 15.5-5.5 defeat of Delbarton at Plaza Lanes. T il never forget when i first started coaching,” jonach continued. “I remember the school having a winter sports pep rally. I got down to meet the team outside the gym to go inside and they all had bags over their heads

with the eyes cut out. Needless to say the bags came off and we later had a discussion about taking pride in what one does.”

Matters are quite different when it comes to the status of the school's bowling team during Jonach’s tenure.

“Today I have students talking to me about matches in class or asking me how different bowlers are doing,” said Jonach, a two-time Northern Hills Conference, South­ern Division Coach of the Year

Jonach won the award for the first time in his rookie campaign when he guided the Millers to a 9- 3 record. He chimed his second coaching award following the 2004-05 campaign.

The Millers, who had finished under .500 in each of the previous three seasons, went 11-3-1 that season. There have been several memorable moments along the way for the Millbum alumna.

“I would have to say the fondest memory 1 have is Josh Jacobs throwing his perfect game,” Jonach said. The 10-year anniversary of the 300 game by Jacobs occurred earlier this week. Jacobs achieved bowling immortality on Jan. 30. 1997, against West Orange.

T o this day I can picture him getting down on his knees and kissing the approach after his last

strike," Jonach said. “I still don’t think most people are aware of what a significant accomplishment this is, especially at the high school level Most people will never in their Me even witness one on tele- vision. let alone in person."

The squad’s lone championship season and having Josh Troper become the school’s first state championship qualifier also hold special meaning for Jonach.

“Another great memory was the one and only time we beat out West Orange for the conference title in 1998-99" Jonach said. “We were 17-5 that year (17-1 in confer­ence). We have finished second a few times since then but have yet to win the title again.”

The highlight of Jonach's 10th season at Millbum came almost a year ago, on Feb. 11,2006, when Troper threw a 693 series in the New Jersey State Inteischolastic Athletic Association North Jersey, Sectional 2 Championship to win the bronze medal and advance to the state finals. “Most people probably would have predicted either Trevor Beston or Jared Stone had the best chance to qual­ify (for the states)," Jonach said. ‘With the exception of Jacobs’ 500. I don't think I have ever seen a bowler as focused as Troper was that morning of the sectionals. It

was as if he could do no wrong.“I hated seeing him knocked out

in the first round of the finals. He took it hard but that was a tribute to how serious he was about the sport." Keeping in touch with his former wrestlers is something jonach practices.

“One of the things 1 enjoy most is hearing from and seeing the bowlers who have graduated," Jonach said. “It’s great when they1 stop down at the school or stop by a match. At some point f would love to arrange some type of reunion or alumni match.”

MILLER NOTESjonach's squad won the final

game 5-2 to post a 10.5-10.5 with Madison on Jan. 22 at Haza Lanes. Madison, which had won each of its two previous meetings with Millbum by the score of 11-10, had lost just two matches all season entering the contest

Sophomore Ed Masterson threw a team-high 527 series. Senior tri-captain Luke Geller logged a 505 series.

Millbum. with its season-ending defeat of Millbum, finished with a winning record for the third con­secutive season.

Millbum has recorded winning records in eight of jonach's 11 sea­sons at the helm.

Bowler Ashley Kirchner is the recipient of Millbum High School Varsity Club Athlete of the Week honors for Jan. 22-28.

Kirchner. a sophomore, was cited by her coach, Fritz Jonach. for being one of the most consis­tent bowlers in the Southern Divi­sion of tire Northern Hills Con­ference.

Kirchner recorded Miflbum’s high series of the season, 548, in a 17.5-3.5 defeat of Orange on Jan. 24 at Haza Lanes in Madison

She rolled games of 181,180 and 187.

The Miller sophomore logged a scoring average of 1585 en route to winning 30 of her first 41 matches this season

Kirchner’s exploits helped Millbum go undefeated in three contests last week.

The Millers opened the week with a tie against twice-beaten Madison and then went on to defeat Orange and Newark West Side.

RED CROSS

Blood drive taking place Saturday

Red Cross volunteers from the Millburn Middle School, from left, Judy Jansen, Nikki Wiilens and Caroline DiStefano, entertain Tamara and Julian Sasso while their father, Donald Sasso, gives blood at the Red Cross drive held Jan. 13 at Glenwood School.

Local residents will have an opportunity to help alleviate a shortage of blood in this area by donating at a blood drive Saturday at the Mtllbum Free Public Library from 10 am. to 4 p.m.

According to the Penn-Jersey Region of the American Red Cross, the blood supply available to local hospitals is now less than enough to meet one day's needs for both 0 - and 0 + blood. Other blood types are also critically needed.

uEvery blood donor is given a mini-physical, checking the donors temperature, blood pres­sure, pulse and red blood cell lev­el to ensure it is safe for him or her to give blood." said Malcolm MacKinnon, co-chairman for

blood sendees of the local Red Cross Chapter.

“The actual blood donation typ­ically takes 10 to 12 minutes,” he said. “The entire process, from the time you arrive to the time you leave, takes about an hour. It is perfectly safe. A sterile needle is used only once for each donor and then discarded. There is no substi­tute for human blood.”

Appointments are not required but can speed up the process. It is now possible to make an appoint­ment by going to the Chapter’s Web site, millbum-shortliiIls.red- cross.org, clicking beside the words “Next Chapter Blood Drive,” and then clicking beside the words “Make Your

Appointment Now.” Appoint­ments can also be made by phone at 973-379-4198 or 800- 448-3543.

Blood donors must be in good general health and weigh at least 110 pounds. They must know their Social Security number and bring picture identification showing that they are at least U years old.

those whose last donation was at the library in December will be eligible to donate’ on Saturday, since more than eight weeks will have elapsed between donation Travel restrictions apply.

For more information, call the American Red Cross a t one of the numbers listed above.
