Westfield Board of Education can-didate, Michael A,J. Farrell, has hireda private investigator to determinethe source of information of lastweek's Westfield Record article whichreported on his suspension and finelost year by the National Associationof Securities Dealers, Inc., a tradegroup.

The penalties were said to be theresult of an alleged error made by u"Big Six" accounting firm which was

hired in 1992 by the Citadel Corp.,one of the four Finns with which hewasaffiliuted, tocomplcte its requiredannual opinion and report. Mr, Farrellsaid the opinion was challenged byCitadel's prime regulator in 199.5which initially agreed with the ac-counting firm's findings

"That accounting decision wasmade acoupleof thousand miles awayin Denver from my office, and not byme, although I am responsible for it,"Mr. Farrcll said.

He Was Offered $41,000 Less for Ellington Job

The Superintendent of WestfieldSchools, Dr. Mark C. Smith, con-firmed a report last week that he hasdeclined an offer from the Ellington,Connecticut Public School Districtto become their chief schools admin-istrator.

According to a report, the positionwas offered lo him on April 6 follow-ing a vote by the community's schoolboard in favorof the appointment theprevious night.

In a letter tu the district's .staffdated April 7, which was obtained byThe Westfield Leader from Dr. Smith,the Superintendent said, "Althoughhonored by the offer, 1 had declinedthe position in order to remain inWestfield and continue the stridesour district has made in recent years."

The Superintendent, who has beenemployed by the Westfield Board ofEducation for the past nine years,was offered a salary of $93,000 for(he Connecticut post which is$4!,<)00below what he currently is paid.

"The task of providing a high levelof quality education in a time olfiscalconstraint, increasing enrollmentsandpublic discontent with all levels ofgovernment is asubstantial challenge.

"I look forward to addressing thatchallenge with the staff, the Board ofEducation and the community ofWestfield," Dr. Smith staled in thefetter.

The Ellingtondistrict is reportedlyhalf the size of the Westfield schoolsystem, in terms of its student popu-lation with 2,050 pupils, and has fivebuildings.

Charles H. Brandt, the town's attor-ney announced the town intended lo ap-peal Judge Wcckcr's decision barringCouncilman Greco from voling on theordinance. The appeal was expected lo befiled yesterday. April 12, at the AppellateDivision.

If Ihe lown is unsuccessful in its ap-peal, the Planning Board would retainjurisdiction in the ShopRilc application.'Die board hns until April 23 lo vole on thematter, because Village sought;!decisionwilhin 3D days. If the town wins ihcappeal anil passes ihc rc/.oning of iheproperty, the lumberyard would changefrom commercial to office use. thus mak-ing a supermarket a non-pcrmitlrd use.

Since Councilman Greco supponcd Ihcordinance's introduction on March 28,Mr. Brandl recommended Ihc ordinancebe rcimroduccd. The council voted 5-3 infavor on both Ihe first and second read-ings.

maintains the goals of the MasterPlan by preserving the character ofWestfield. Mrs. List said the ShopRitecase "took on a dimension we neveranticipated."

ShopRite proposed using adjacentlots at the border of Weslfield andGarwood to create a 5 8,000-square-foot store at the North Avenue site.

In support of the revised ordinance,MayorBoothedescribed the proposedShopRite store as a "magnet" fortraffic.

'This is bad planning, and it sim-ply isn't acceptable to me," )ie said.

Mr. Boothe also described a Mas-ter Plan goal to maintain a "thriving"downtown district, pointing to thetown's $100,000-a-year MainStreetrevitalization program.

A superstore on the edge of town,he said, would have a negative im-pact on the economy ol the CentralBusiness District.

"I would like to see offices there,"he said, referring to the North Avenuesite.

Area residents speaking in favor olthe revised ordinance received longand loud applause from opponents ofthe ShopRite proposal.

Planning Board member and FourthWard Councilman, Michael E.Panagos, wanted to",go forward" withboard approval of the resolution, cit-ing the board's purely advisory rolein the lawmaking process.

Mr, Neweil closed the discussionby describing what he saw as the roleof the Planning Board and its deci-sion in this case.

"We're here to serve the commu-nity and preserve the quality of life.The intent of the Master Plan is notwhat ShopRite is."

Stress Disorder CitedIn Latest Appeal by List

Convtctedmass murderer John Listhas cited "Post Traumatic Stress Dis-order" in legal papers submitted lastweek in his latest attempt to overturnhis 1990 conviction for killing hisfamily in their Weslfield home in1971.

List, 69, was convicted on fivecounts of first-degree murder follow-ing an 11 -day trial for shooting todeath his wife, mother and three chil-dren. Superior Court Judge WilliamL'E. Wertheimer in Elizabeth sen-tenced List lo five consecutive lifeterms.

He has asked Judge Wertheimer, aWestfield resident, in the legal paperssubmitted to ihe Stale Superior Courton April 4, lo set aside the convic-tions. A report indicates that prereq-uisite relief is necessary before Listcan pursue his case in (he federalcourts.

According to a published report,List slated incourt papers (hat he nowbelieves Ihe stress disorder, of whichhe had not known about, "was theresult of the basic infantry training"that he received as well as "from thestress of combat during World WarII"

Union County Prosecutor AndrewK. Ruololo, Jr. of Westfield told areporter that his office "will continueto oppose any effort to overturn thisdefendant's conviction, orthc prisonterm to which he was justly sen-tenced."

List slated in the papers lhat policeillegally seized a letter that had beenaddressed to the Reverend EugeneRehwinkel. He states in the papersthat the letter, in which List con-fessed to the murders, should nothave been allowed into evidence be-cause of the confidential relationshipbetween a priest and a parishioner.

In addition List states, "The origi-nal sentencing is clearly illegal, as

John £. List

(he terms should have been concur-rent and not consecutive."

The issues of priest-penitent and(he alleged illegal police search andseizure were previously included inappeals by Lisl which were consid-ered and denied by the state appellatepanels and ihe Supreme Court.

Following the murders to his fam-ily, List tied the state. He changed hisname to Robert P. Clark and remar-ried in 1985 while living in Denver.

The couple moved to Richmond.Virginia which is where he was ar-rested in 1989 and taken into custodyby the Federal Bureau of Investiga-tion following a lip from a viewer ofthe television show, "America's MostWanted." The call came in following:a reenactment of the List cast un iheshow.

No hearing dale had been beforeJudge Wertheimer as of last week.

PLAY BALL, ANYONE?

All Mudville's joy became hard-pre&sedWhen baseball's squabbles weren't addressed.

For eight long months, bats failed to swingAnd all the hopes of fans took wing.

We longed to hear that cry "Play Ball!"For men who know there is a hall

In Cooperstown where well-enshrinedSomeday their names could be assigned.

Club owners would not change their standAnd draw a line in outfield sand.

Opposing those whuse earnings areThe highest ever paid by far.

Comparing them with CBO'sWhose office time is for 12 months.

We love this sport that's our pastimeWhich nurtured millionaires who whine.

"No limit to our sky," they say,Then took our pastime out of play.

Some loiks vow they'll not welcome backThese men who took that "no-play" tack.

Still no one knows how this will end,Both .tides did not comprehend.

The public doesn't think it's fanThat men who swat balls in the air

Should warrant such inflated payAnd had mindset no one could sway.

They're worth their weight in gold it seemsWhen they go on that Field of Dreams.

Is a Newspaper's Job to ReportThe Truth, Unpleasant Though It Is?I just finished reading the front-page

The Strategic Plan Is a WayTo Provide a Vision of the Future

Editor s Nwe: There is. no doubt,formerMay. mAlexanderS Wilh.imsdida great deal of good for our community,but I don't feel you realize a newspapermusi tell the truth, and tut sweep mailerswider the rug no matter how unptcasanlthe situation is. Thai matter was deter-mined in a federal court and is not thesubject of ':heup rumors. You are askingus to lie about the matter by omission ;mdfind yoursdf in the position of shootingthe messenger ul the unfortunate story.The only 'poor judgment" and "despi-cable n i l " would be our hiding ihe siory.As you say. it appeared in the major dailynewspapers.

The New Jersey Department ol liduca-tion has recently released a draft olConlent Standards, for all subject areas, thaithey hope will be finalized hy 1996. Allschool systems in the stale wifl have looffer curricula that insure their studentswill meet the standards I have chosen Iduse some of the draft for my letter be-cause I believe they arc significant inlightofllieun-going debate over the StrategicPlan for our school district.

Here arc just a few of the many stan-dards:

Mathematics: Computers, calculators,manipulative!! and other tools of learningwill be regularly and routinely used, byall students, as an integral part of bothinstructional and assessment activities Inenhance the undemanding andcommandof mathematics.

Science; The sludy of science will in-corporate Ihc use of technology und de-velop trie understanding of technology asan application of scientific principles

Social Studies: Undemanding of ethi-cal principles and values andthc ability locvalualc their worth and make consid-ered applications. Understanding andappreciation of the complexities andintcrconncctednessof nations ami peoplein our global society.

Docs any of this sound lumiliar? Itseems lo me that Ihc Scotch I'lains-Fanwood School System by way uf itsStrategic Plan, is positioning our districtto insure >nr students will nice! the stan-dards which arc part of a larger plan thatwill require bodies of knowledge to bemastered by grades 4,8 and I I and mea-sured by a testing system lhal involvesmore than the mathematics and readingcurrently evaluated by the High SchoolProficiency Tesi.

Westfield Desperately Needs CompetitionIn the Food Market Business

We returned to Westfield Sunday at 5p.m. after being away for several monthsand decided to stop al Foodlown to pur-chase milk and bread.

The parking lol was full, so while myhusband stayed with the ear, I went intothe store.

The lines were extremely long andfinally, after 15 minutes waiting, he man-aged to check out the (wo items in the fasllane.

We had forgotten how very bad the

situation was at Foodlown.The next morning I shopped early and

to my horror, the prices on almost everyitem had soared, for example, lettuce

$2.69 a head! ft is a disgrace.Since Food town is taking advantage of

its monopoly status, this should point outto all Westfielders lhat we desperatelyneed competition among food markets intown.

N. B. GrantWestfield

Remember the quote from ForrestGump, "Life is like a box of chocolates,you never know what you will gel."

Well — with Dr. Donald E. Sheldon,Albert J.SyvertsenandRichardR.Meadeyou know what you will get — serious-ness of purpose, dedication to the educa-tion of our children for their tomorrows,integrity, honesly and the ability to agreeto disagree and to do so with respect or(he other members right lo his opinionand most importantly, no hidden agenda.

A member of the Board of Educationhas heavy responsibilities, Elected lo athree-year term, each must conform tothe code of ethics, especially the code ofstrict confidentiality of information. Eachmust re mcmberlhat the role of the Super-intendent is to make the recommenda-tions [hat will enhance the education ofthe children of the district, and the mem-bers' role is to become informed, lo dis-

cuss the recommendations with his fel-low members and lo render his personalvole based on information he has fromthe Superintendent and from his discus-sions with his colleagues.

Think about this: The success of ourschools directly impacts on the value ofyour property. A contentious board likethe infamous one here in the 1970s willnot only impact adversely on ourchildren's right lo a soitndeducaLion, as itdid then, bul also on your property val-ues, as it surely did then.

Yes — you do have a choice — makeit an informed one and vole for those whohave served you well. These three menarc depend able, hard working, hone si andsincere dedicated representatives of allthe cili/.ens, students and adults alike.

In the Classroom, Not Class Size

Dr. Sheldon Has Given His TimeAnd Energies to the School System

Boy, to read some of the negative let-ters to the newspaper regarding Dr.Donald E. Sheldon, one would (hink thathe is personally responsible foranylhingand everything thai has transpired in ourschool and towns, not only since he'sbeen on the board, bul for all years past!

Now, as I sec it. I think thai there arcsome things that Dr. Sheldon has beenresponsible for. 1 think Dr. Sheldon, whenhe was the Director of Guidance andSpecial Services for our school district,was responsible for the excellent state-wide reputation that our district garneredin the area of special education, and hislegacy of excellent hires and a philoso-phy of care for all children's needs liveson.

I think he, as a member of ihe Board ofEducation who voted for Dr. Carol B.Choyc as our new Superintendent ofSchools, is responsible for bringing loour towns an outstanding professionaland educational leader.

I think he, as President of our schoolboard for Ihe past two years, has been

responsible for the leadership and dedi-cation lo issues that affects us and ourchildren, now and for the future.

I think he, whodevotescounlless hoursas a volunteer, whether for the Board ofEducation, the Tiny Tim Fund, his localchurch or the Union County Vocational-Technical Schools, is responsible forimproving the quality of life of the resi-dents of Scotch Plains and Fanwood.

I think the voters of our two townsknewor recognized this about Dr. Sheldonwhen they elected him to the Board ofEducation in 1990. I think those of uswho chose to move to Scotch Plains orFanwood can thank him for his role inkeeping our schools strong, yel ready forthe future while always keeping an eye onour wallets.

Maybe Dr. Sheldon is personally re-sponsible for keeping our property val-ues high?

She continued her blue chipeducation at one of the finest law schoolsin the country, New York University LawSchool, where she distinguished herselfby scrvingonthc senior editorial board ofIhe Law Review. Clearly, her academicbackground is quite impressive

Wherever Mrs. Hardwick has takenher talents, she has been an asset. A judgeof the United Court of Appeals for theThird Circuit has nothing but praise lorhis former law clerk. The wcll-rcspcclcdlaw firm of Crummy, Del Deo, el al heldher work in high esteem. As an AdjunctProfessor al Scion Hall Law School, shehas been highly rated by students andolherfacully alike. The simple reason forher unfailing success is her penchant forhard work coupled exceptional intelli-gence and fierce independence.

Mrs. Hardwick was raised in Ihe tradi-tion of public service, her father havingrepresented Westfield in ihe GeneralAssembly for some 13 years. She under-stands (he commitment needed to servethe cilizensof this community and will bean independent voiccon the school board.

Throughout this campaign she hasstressed her desire to improve the educa-tion offered lo our children while consid-ering the pnancial challenges the boardwill face in the next three years. I trustMrs. Hardwick to make the lough deci-sions which will move our schools in theright direction.

That line in the sand drawn by ourboard and ils supporters a 25 studentmaximum per classroom is doing a dis-service to ihe community and is causingconcern to parents to whom that 25 figurehas come lo mean the undermining of ourproperly values, the breakdown of ourquality educational system and the sub-sequent ruination of our town.

Our board should be giving assuranceto Ihcpublic at large that it is not numbersthat determine Ihe amount of learningthai takes place in Ihe classroom, il is Ihequality of the leaching and the necessarycontrol, benevolent, ol'course. maintainedwithin that classroom and for a systemlhat discriminate^ selects its staff. Wecannot expect that this quality educationwill continue to be ongoing, even i f .stu-dent size of some classrooms might beslightly enlarged.

The board and some principals should

nol claim lhat education in Westlieldwould be compromised were one, two orthree children added lo classrooms thatpresently do have the physicalcapacily loabsorb a small increase.

As a former educator who on severaloccasions had up k>2Bancl 29students ina classroom, it was a challenge to be moreinnovative, andnodiminution of Ihe learn-ing or individualized attention resulted.

Yes, our world is changing and whilewe sec in rhe future a fiber optic high waybeckoning and though some individualsarc poised to leap upon it perhaps evenprematurely in the final analysis, it willremain the teacher who successfully setsthe tune and goals in her classroom, uti-lising strengths and strategics.

What is the real purpose of candidatesnights? My understanding is that it issupposed to be an opportuni ly to questioncandidates on relevant issues in order todecide whether they are intelligent, com-petent people who would be assets lo theschool board.

It was a rather conspicuous omissionthat all reporters failed to ask candidalcMichael A.J. Farrell about a front-pagestory regarding the National Assutial ionof Securily Dealers proceedings in whichMr. Farrell consented lo the findings thathe was found lo have acted as a "generalsecurities principal" without proper reg-istrations, operated a securities businesswithout adequate capital. Tiled inaccuratereports with the body and failed (o main-tain accurate books and records.

Owning my own business in Ihe sameindustry as Mr. Farrell, I find in inexcus-able that Mr. FarTell would try to con-vince Ihe public thai these findings arenot of a serious nature. Also, by Muminghis accountants, he al best tells us lhat heis less than competent al overseeing suchfundamental details of his business.

I find this news diMurbing because MrFarrell and Ihe rest of Ihe "slate." Keith S.Hcrlell, Mark B. Boyd and Paul A.Haltiloro. Jr., have run Ihcir entire cam-paign on disparaging the present boardmembers, calling them housewives and

people who are not astute businessmenlike themselves. They have lime and limeagain stated their business expertise asreason to vote for them, yel when Ihisexpertise comes into question, they allstate it is an unfair "personal attack."Why are they unwi Ding todiscuss this? IfMr. Farrell and the slate who endorseshim cannot see the seriousness of thesefindings, it would seem they belter de-serve Ihe disparaging labels than thosethey arc running against.

Il is our responsibility as citizens lo beinformed and to truly question the com-petence of those we seat on the boardChange for change's sake is not necessar-ily a good thing; we must affect changeprudently. We must be extremely carefulnot to buy into rhetoric and simplistictalk, bul to vote for intelligent, compe-tent, independent thinkers. Entrusting ourhard-earned dollars lo people who aregoing to take the responstbilily for over-sight and pay attention to Ihe details isimperative in meeting the challengesWestfield now faces.

Because It Was 'Edited,' HairWas Suitable for Teenage Actors

Westfield High School has a deservedreputation for the excellence of its musi-cal production; its most recent produc-tion. Hair, was noexceplion to this tradi-tion, to this tradition. While the selectionof the play engendered some trepidationamong parents and the community themembers of the Westfield High SchoolParent-Teacher Organization would liketo congratulate Joseph Nitric on his ex-cellent jobof editing. We feel the produc-tion was entirely suitable for teenage ac-tors and anau&ience that included youngersiblings.

Many of the issues addressed in Hair:war, racism, gender, societal standards,lack of heroes, religion, family, educa-tion and alienation are as relevant andproblematic for today's teenagers,as theywere for their I960's counterparts. Yet,with the wisdom of the 1990' s. themes-

sage of this production was clearly thatdrug use and irresponsible sexual be-havior do not now, nor did they then,offer solutions to these issues.

We believe this production succeededin balancing an admiration for the raw,untamed energy of teenagers wilh a senseof the consequences of choices. It was abittersweet reminder for those of us whoarc no longer young of our own days ofrebellion and breaking free; even sadder,it was a reminder our children are nowbeginning their own journeys apart fromus.

To all those involved in the productionof Hair, heartfelt congratulations. Yourlabors have brought honor lo yourselvesand your community.

A Consensus Must Be FoundTo Solve Overcrowding Problem

Some ha vequesti on edwhy (supportedthe bond last fall and am now looking foralternative solutions to schoolovercrowd-ing. The answer is simple: 1 cared thenand care now about finding the best pos-sible solution lo our school overcrowd-ing. Our community faces the very diffi-cult task of building a consensus to solvethe problem of how to educate mote chil-dren without more space or more money.

Whether or not 1 am elecied to theschool board, I will continue to work

Mrs. Satkin ShowsIndependent Thinking

By Her ActionsIt gives me pleasure to endorse the

candidacy of Mrs. Eileen Salkin for theWesifleld Boardof Education. When shewas first elected to the board three yearsago, I did not know what to expect. As apermanent fixture at board meetings forthe past five years, I have come to respecther independent thinking and dedicationto all children in the Westfield PublicSchool System. Mrs. Salkin has neverbeen afraid to assert her convictions. Atthe same tinr". she always respects hercolleagues. I have watched her disagreewith I he whole board when she felt that i!was not in the best interests of educationor fiscally sound.

For example, after the bond issue wasdefeated and the Long Range PlanningCommittee gave a December completiondale for their study, Mrs. Satkin was thefirst who stronglyoppo sed lhaltimc frameand consistently at subsequent boardmeetings tried to shorten the process. Theboard is now listening.7 When it was decided to cut the publicspeaking course at the high school, il washer creative thinking that promoted theconcept that the skills be incorporatedinto required curricula. This would allowall children lo develop the public speak-ing skills necessary for adult tifc.

I am not interested in those candidateswho rarely if ever came to board meei-ings in the past, but nevertheless "know"they have all the answers on how Co makeour school district more fiscally respon-sible. They are forgetting about the chil-dren. People who think they have all theanswers upfront tend lo be rigid in theirthinking and arc unwilling to sway fromtheirpersonal agenda and look at creativealternatives.

Mrs. Satkin has proven she is creativeand fiscally conscience of dwindling re-sources. She consistently remembers thebusiness of the board to educate our chil-dren.

Alice C. HunnicuttWeslfleld

toward a solution to this problem.We face difficult decisions as a com-

munity. We will have to consider rcdis-tricting and alternatives to our neighbor-hood Kindergarten through fifth-gradeschools. These changes from our currentschool configuration will bedifficult andmay be unpopular. I will work lobe surethai any changes we implement are edu-cationally positive and not a mere reshuf-fling of bodies. .

Il is important lo remember that nosolution is perfect. Even the much-her-alded plan to place Kindergartners inLincoln School has serious drawbacks: Itwill involve busing, a loss of continuityfor our youngest students, nnd — mostimportantly—ihcoperatingcostsof open-ing an additional school may actuallymake this the most e»pensivc option.This plan is no panacea.

If we wish lomainlainourcurrcnt classsize policy without large scale building,we need to consider reconfiguring ourelementary schools. One possibility thatwill avoid the expense of busing childrenacross the railroad tracks would be tocreate two Kindergarten through third-grade elementary schools on each sideoftown, and to place fourth and fifth grad-ers in the third elementary school on eachside of town.

This is a configuration that has beenwell received by many educators. Al-though I would be saddened lo lose ourKindergarten throughfifth-gradc schools,we need to be open to possibilities thatwill allow us to use our space more effec-tively.

There will be those who will find faultwith any solution that is proposed, so ilwill take a concerted effort to build con-sensus. I feel it is essential we work tobuild a consensus, both on the board, andin the community, in support of a plan todeal wilh overcrowding.

The alternative is unacceptable to thosewho care about Westfield's schools: Wecould make no changes lo our system andsimply let Ihe chips fall where they may.Elementary class size will rise drasti-cally, and even if the community does notmake conscious changes to curriculum,those changes will come unbidden asteachers arc forced to abandon modernleaching methods thiil require more indi-vidual students attention.

This issue is too important for us rejectan idea because it is suggested by a per-son we have disagreed with in the past. 1pledge lo listen lo every idea wilh an openmind, to gather informaiion from everypossible source, to listen to the concernsof taxpayers, parents and educators, towork for consensus and lo put forth a planIhul is educationally and fiscally sound.

I strongly urge residents of ScotchPlains to vote for Edward Saridaki, Jr.and Albert J. Syvertsen and residents ofFanwood lo vote for Mrs. VictoriaManduca on the April 18 school boardelection. These three candidates will fightfor the critical changes within our schooldistrict. Change is vital for five reasons.

First, the quality of the Scotch Plains-Fan wood School Syslcm is not as good asthe existing board and administrationwould like you to believe. Scotch Plains-Fan wood ranks an anemic 44th out of the48 school districts within its district fac-tor group in passing Ihc High SchoolProficiency Test. Furthermore, ihe aver-age Scholastic Assessment Test score of924 is lower than all neighboring towns,except for Plainficld.

Second, property owners pay throughthe nose for these poor quality results. Ihave owned a home in town since 1988when I paid $2,874 in property lax. Lastyear, only six years later, that figure hasescalated 51 percent to$4,033. The aver-age annual cost per pupit is a ridiculoussum of $10,690.

Third, lliis so-called strategic plan is asham. The plan contains a bunch of feel-good "psychobabble." There are no aca-demic standards mentioned anywhere inthis plan, and il contained mandated psy-chological testing. Corporate strategicplanning must always contain a specificmission wilh specific and clearly-definedgoals. This plan contains neither.

For example, "excellence" is men-tioned several times in the plan, but neverdefined against anything specific. State-ments contained in the plan's objectivessuch as. "We will put no walls around ihcfuture" arc meaningless.

Fourth, the existing board leadershiphas ignored the dozens of letters andquestions raised by concerned parents

with respect to the plan. They gave par-ents and concerned citizens two weeks torespond to their 278-page tome beforevoting it in. Then the board reversedcourse and gave us a 16-page Reader'sDigest version which contains primarilyabstract jargon.

Fifth, Mrs. Barbara McGuane, Presi-dent of ihc Scotch Plains-Fanwood Edu-cation Association,"strongly encouragesthe board to consider whether the planshould continue lo be the best method forlong-range panning the Scotch Plains-Fanwood School District. We urge themembers of ihe board not lo approve anynew goals for implementation prior toreview of ihe merits of the Strategic Planas a planning model"

So we have a low academic ranking,high costs lo pay for i l , a strategic planwith no mention of academics ami nospecific strategy, a teachers associationwho doesn't want to implement i l andmany parents against it. And yet we haveit! It is high time to elect board memberswho wil l be responsive to the reasonablerequests of parents and tax-paying citi-zens who want better academic values forIheir dollar.

These candidates are Mr. Svvertsen,Mr. Saridaki and Mrs. Manduca.

Mr. Syvcrlsen has been Ihc lone voiceon thecurrenl board questioning the meritof the plan, and Mr. Saridaki and Mrs.Manduca will each bring a fresh perspec-tive to the board by slressing high aca-demic standards and by cutting wastefrom the budget.

I am all for a plan, but let's have a planthat has as part of its mission to makeScotch Plains-Fanwood first out of 48rather than allowing us to flounder at44lh.

ThingS Don't Have to Stay the Same;Vote the Entire Slate to the Board

During the school budget meeting onApril 4 held at Roosevelt Middle School,those in attendance or watching at homeon television had the disquieting experi-cnceofwatchingOr. Mark C. Smith denyknowledge of what the passing grade ison the High School Proficiency Test.

Dr. Smith had just stated his opinion(hut this test is much better than Scholas-tic Assessment Test scores in measuringour students' knowledge. Yet. at leastthree times, in response to direct ques-tioning from School Board candidate,Michael A. J. Farrell. he denied knowingwhat the passing grade is and even said,"Who cares what it is, as long as 98 percent of our students pass the test."

As we learned in the advertisementconcerning Ihc Eighth-Grade Early Warn-ing Test, although 93 per cent passed atRoosevelt Intermediate School and 89per ccnl passed at Edison IntermediateSchool, only 39 per cent passed at "LevelI "proficiency.

Keith Hertell HasA Deep CommitmentTo Westfield SchoolsWith Ihe upcoming eleclions for the

Dcspitchis towering presence,his soft-spoken manner is enhanced byhis philanthropic nature. He is among thefirst to volunteer lime, knowledge andenergy to bring the dreams of others intoreality.

His experience and sound judgmentenable him to view a situation and re-spond wilh poise, logic and competence.His keen intelligence is complementedby his good,old-fashioned common sense.lie is a fearless leader, a caring mentorand an advocate of civility.

Having a longstanding commitment loWestfield, Mr. Hertell seeks to partici-pate in an even greater capacity through ascat on Ihe board of education, In myopinion, we would be lucky to benefitfrom his Wall Strcctcxpericncc, his senseof fairness and civility, and his vision ofwhat an educational system is meant todeliver. It seems his years of parentinghave prepared him forthedivcrse respon-sibilities of a board member.

Additionally, his years of coachinghave given him the experience he willneed to deal with critical issues in a timely,resourceful manner. Lastly, his long es-tablished business expertise will enablehim to provide the board with a perspec-tive based on fiscal knowledge and re-sponsibility. Westfield is wavering at acrossroads, hut Mr. Hcrtell has the direc-tions Lcl's let him lead

Evergreen School Leads in DefenseOf Controversial Strategic Plan

The teachers in the Scotch Piains-Fanwood School District have joinedforces opposing the Strategic Plan. Theynow want it shelved!

Ironically, some of Ihe powers that bein the Parent-Teacher Association sup-port the plan and have thrown Iheir alle-giance to the administration. This is notsutprising since these select few officialsof the association are pawns of Superin-tendent of Schools, Dr. Carol B. Choye,and Dr. Faith Spilt.

These are Ihc same administrators whoput this socialistic plan into effect in ourschools and arc the ones responsible forIhe dissension created in our communi-ties over Ihe past year.

Why did some Parent-Teacher Asso-ciation officials conduct investigativeinquires about ParenlsResistsngOulcomeBased Education and Citizens for Aca-demicand Responsible Education—twoseparate organizations opposing the Stra-tegic Plan? They are following the direc-tives of the administration, of course.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist IOrealize that the Evergreen School is thefocal point or hoi bed of all covert activi-ties to defuse public criticism of our edu-cational system, the Strategic Plan and itsassociated high costs.

Why the Evergreen School? Well, it isthe home of Dr. Choye, Dr. Spitz and theBoard of Education. Could this have anybearing on the fact that a number ofEvergreen teachers were coerced—oops,solicited is more politically correct — insubmitting letters to the press supportingIhe plan, condemning those who opposeil and openly supporting those boardmembers who rubber stamped its ap-proval and are running for re-election onApril 18.

The administration and board arethumbing iheir noses al the taxpayers ofScotch Plains and Fanwood as well as theteachers serving these communities. Theyhave no intention of dropping Ihis plan orasking for public inpul to completelyrestructure i l lo benefit the educationalwell-being of our children and lo make itaffordable lo Ihc taxpayers.

Dr. Donald E. Sheldon and Richard R.Meade are incumbent board membersseeking another term. When you vote onApril 18, please remember that these twowhole-heartily continue to support theplan and have completely disregardedteacher and public input opposing i l . Volethem out!

School Board Members SpendMoney Like It Is Water

It is disturbing to see Ihe emboldenedzeal with which Ihc Westfield Board ofEducation has seen fit lo spend our taxdollars over the years. The most recentexample is Ihc $153,000 billed lo theboard for final architectural drawings forproposed capital construction projectsprior to the public vote on the defeatedbond act.

Aside from the board's presumption lodecide public questions without publicinput, Ihc members of the school boardshould have examined all olher availableoptions to address Ihe situation beforehastily presenting the bond issue.

Clearly, the residents or Weslfield havebcgunlo call for belterrepresenlalionanddecision-making from lhcirboardof edu-cation, t f it wasn't for the recent publicoutcry that prompted greater fiscal pru-dence from the board in drafting thisyear's nearly $50 million budget, I canonly wonder how much more Ihe boardwould have spent.

I want to take this opportunity to credit

all (hose citizens who spoke up and de-manded greater thrift and accountabilityfrom the board.

Bui our efforts to remake Westfield'spublic school system for the benefit ofour children's future education must ex-tend beyond Ihis year's budget. Wilhsome of the board's incumbent membersnot seeking reelection, residents have agolden opportunity lo changes its com-plexion. There arc a number of qualifiedcandidates who are seeking the chance loapply their expertise, background and(heir proven commitment to our commu-nity and our children. They include PaulA. Baltiloro, Jr.. Mark B. Boyd. MichaelA.J. Farrell and Kcilh S. Hcrtell.

We can make a positive impact on thequality of our children's education. But,lo make a different, we must first make achange in the membership of the schoolboard. Please remember to vole on April18. Your vote mailers.

Reader Sees a Lot of Negativism,Inconsistencies and Misinformation

I am writing because I am very con-cerned over Ihe inconsistencies, misin-formation and negativism expressed byihc slate of candidates for Ihe WestfieldBoard of Education — Mark B. Boyd,PaulA.&altiioro,Jr.,MichaclAJ.Farrclland KeilhS. Hertell. It seems lo me Iheirpolitical and personal agenda are endan-gering the morale in our schools and arefeeding a Uivisivcness and negativityamong our citizens,

Mr. Farrell look out a full-page adver-tisement in December urging people lovole down the bond because il solved atemporary bubble wilh a "permanent so-lution." He had nol attended any of thepublic discussions and investigations onthe issue; he entered the debate just threeweeks before the bond vole. Then, onJuiiujry 17 at a public meeting hosied byihc Long Range Planning Committee, hestood up charts in hand and declared thatyes, dcmographically, there was a defi-nite increase in population and also lhathe was in favor of a $20 million dollarbond for technology alone.

Now we Icam that he spoke ihis al atime inalhc was reprimanded for miscon-duct in ihc securities industry, guiliy ofmisrepresenting andundcrcapitali/.inghis.securities company in Colorado. He wasfined $150.(100 and suspended 30 days.

Mr. Balliloro seems lo he running onhis one comment, "It's a school?" Incoffees and informal discussions, he ex-hibits a lethal combination of naivete* ofstale mandates and laws coupled wilhsimplistic off-the-cuff solutions, such asnet paying a director of technology butjust telling a Icachcr thai he or she is Ihcdirector of technology—just hand themihc job (if overseeing the town's technol-

Also, his campaign manager usedsmeurtaclics, slating thai "Dr. Smilhuscdevery opportunity to inflate hissalary..siphoning off needed funds forprograms."

Mr Hcrtcll, in coordination with othermembers of Ihis slutc. has criticized ourschools by quoting scores out of context.He is preaching lh.it our high school slu-dcnisarcrudc and unkempt, and he wantslo enforce a dress code.

Would You Trust Him With MakingYour Personal Financial Decisions?

Michael A. J. Farrell recently told anaudience at a Candidate's Night thai hewould bring credibility to the schoolboard. Credibility?

Mr. Farrell is the self-styled financialwizard of the slate endorsed by Con-cerned Citizens for Educatioa. He hasspewed out numbers and statistics adnauseam.

However, and ironically, he has failedto be candid wilhthcpublicaboul hisownbusiness background. A sclf-reguloiingbody of the stock exchange obviouslyfound egregious violations in Mr. f-'urrcU'abusiness practices, since u hefty tine waslevied, and Mr. Farrell was given a 30-day suspension lo boot.

The body charged Mr, Farrell withacting as a securities principal withoutregistration, under capitalizing his secu-rities business, filing inaccurate reports

and failing lo maintain accurate hooksand records. Mr. Parrel 1 consented lothese findings.

In running forschool board, Mr. Fanellhasportraycdhimselfasa manof financeand integrity. Vet, he has attempted topass ihe buck and point his finger at anaccounting firm for his business woes.

One can only wonder wJiich of hisfinancial skil Is wouldserve us wellomhcboard? Hisabilily to make business deci-sions? His judgment in matters of re-quired capital needs? His honesty in illnig inundated reports? His abi lily lo keepaccurate and complete records?

Is this what we want for our schools?Would you trust dim with your personalinvestments? Why trust him with yourtax dollars?

Karym HotnsWeslfleld

With the school board elections nearlyupon us, I would like to pose two ques-tions for your readers' consideration:What are the most important attributes ofan effective board member? What thingstend todisqualifyacandidateor seriouslyimpair his potential effectiveness? As aformer Trustee of Edinboro State Uni-versity in Pennsylvania, I will offer myinsights.

To understand what I a.n about to say,il is necessary first to dispel a commonmisconception about the funclion of aschool board. Contrary lo popular belief,the board does not "run" a school system.Well-paid administrators iruira^ctho duy-lo-day functions of the system Iliey nor-mally possess advanced degrees in theficldofcducalionas well as considerableexperience in management. A superin-tendent is functionally the Chief Execu-tive Officer of a public corporation.

A school board, on the oihcr hand,exists not lo run the system, but rather tooversee the community interest in iherunning of the system. A board is con-cerned that the quality and cost of thelocal schools match the expcctalions of(tie taxpayers. They arc rather like Ihetrustees ot a large corporation. They areiiicuunlablc to Ihe community, and Iheadministration is accountable lo them.

With this established, it is clear llial ahoard member rrnjsl be a person of high

integrity. Il is also clear he should have nopersonal conflict of interest. The otherattributes may be less obvious. I submitthat personal imjuisitivencss and skepti-cism arc also essential. A board memberthat routinely votes "yes" without askingquestions orconsideringiill possible nega-tives would serve the public belter byslaying home then by attending boardmeetings.

Related to this is Ihe issue of profes-sional or personal bias. A former em-ployee of a school system, for instance,will indeed know a lot about the runningof (hat system. But will lhat knowledgebe an asset or a hindrance? ft is extremelyditficultloobjeclivelycriliqueonc'sownwork.

Finally, a board member miisl be ac-countable We are all human and subjectto frequent mistakes. But how can prob-lems be resolved if board members willnot he responsible fortheir actions? Howcan ihe pubic interact constructively withrepresentatives who change their testi-mony cr just refuse to answer questions?

I suspect that these issues are highlyrelevant to many of the school boardraces in our fair stale. It is my sincerehope your readers will learn how theircandidates measure up an these issuesand then gel out and vote on April 18.

DON'T BE FOOLED BY SCOTCH PLAINSSCHOOL BOARD CANDIDATE DONALD SHELDON,

K N O W THE FACTS. . .F3Ct\ Sheldon was on the Strategic Plan's 35 member Planning Team which authored andapproved this controversial plan!

At the May 26th BOE meeting, Sheldon, as BOE President, voted for and approvedthis same controversial plan. By serving on the committee which developed the plan and latervoting to approve his own work, Sheldon engaged in a conflict of interest!!

Fact. In the 3/9/95 issue of the SPF Press, Sheldon stated "I believe the plan should havemore clearly emphasized the improvement of academic achievement, avoiding the use ofeducational terminology open to varying interpretations, with more opportunity for publicdiscussion prior to adoption," Is Sheldon now criticizing his own work? Why didn't he promoteacademic achievement and less ambiguous terminology when he sat on the Planning Team?

Fact". Sheldon ignored the pleas of concerned citizens at the May 26th BOE meeting whoasked for a delay on voting for his Strategic Plan until there couid be more public discussion andscrutiny. Sheldon closed 1he door to community input, yet now claims there should have beenmore "opportunity for public discussion." Which Sheldon do you believe?

FaCtl The Scotch Plains-Fanwood Education Association in a 3/6/95 letter to Sheldonofficially stated: "In view of the controversial nature o) the Strategic Plan"..."we urge membersof the 8.0. E. not lo approve any new goals for implementation", and to "consider whether theStrategic Plan should, in fact, continue to be the best melhod of long range planning"...! Why hasSheldon kepi this letter from the teachers quiet?

FaCtl Sheldon continues to ignore the public and todiscount the opposition to ihe StrategicPlan as 10-30 radical-religious-rightwinged extremists!

Fact". Sheldon's Strategic Plan states, "We will never tolerate prejudice, discriminationand insensitivily." How then, can Sheldon label and discredit concerned citizens?

Fact". Sheldon helped author and voted twice to approve his Strategic Plan. Now atelection time he is distancing himself from the Plan and agreeing with the citizens he has ignoredand ridiculed all along!

Fact". The children and taxpayers of Scotch Plains-Fanwood deserve a more honest andreceptive BOE candidate!

Support candidates who will put a moratorium onthe Strategic Plan until it is studied further!!!

Worse, they are not taking the time toIcitrn To persist in ignorance on purposeis Ihe height of slupidity! How can he orhis cohorts direct your child's education,when they don't seem to be able lo directIhcirown?

Mr Parrel) throws numbers aroundwithdut regard lo their relevance or valid-ity. He' does ft So frighten people anilmake them angry. Well I am frightened,;>nd I am angry.

If the Board Cared About the Public,They Would Make It Easier to Speak

By Giving Up Their IndependenceBoard Members Become Rubber Stamps

Judged by His Own StandardsDr. Mazzarese Was 'Shameful'

In his undignified, unwarranted attackon Michael A.J.Farrell at last Thursday'stelevised candidates' forum. Dr. MichaelI- Mazzaresedemonstratedalackof thevery qualities he ascribes to himself inprint. He claims he "knows how to buildconsensus and bring individuals together"and "has the courage to at lively seekdiffering per5pectives."Thus, by disown

standards, his performance was shame-ful.

1 believe that Mr. Farrell has become atarget for the very reason that he is on atrack that disturbs the status quo — to-ward fiscal sanity which accrues to thebenefit of students and taxpayers alike.

The people of Scotch Plains andFanwood deserve a concerned and re-sponsive Board of Education.

I began attending their meetings regu-larly last spring, and my observationshave colored the way I intend lo vote inthe April 18 election.

Unfortunately, I beg to differ with Dr.Donald E. Sheldon when he stales lhal hepledges lo "consider all viewpoints." Asthe board Presideni, I feel he must be heldaccountable for Ihe manner in whichmeetings are run. Anyone who atlendedihe September22 meetingorvicwed itontelevision saw the worst example of un-professional and condescending—to putit mildly — behavior on be half of severalboard members.

Plan, the Family Life curriculum andother issues have written for answers andreceived none. Letters of acknowledg-ment are not answers. Some requestswere made as iong as 10 months ago.

If the board were truly interested ingelling the opinions of those who electedthem, they would make it easier to do so.In the fall, they started to highlight a partof the curriculum or leaching method forthe first hour or so of Ihe meeting. Themeeting can already run until 11 o clockor midnight. If a citizen wants to com-ment on a non-agenda item, he must oftenwait until midnight to gel a two-minutehearing. This is frequently followed byIhe gavel and a "thank you, next!"

Obviously, we need a change. Afterhearing the candidates speak at Ihe Can-Apparenlly the viewpoints of those

who questioned or opposed the Strategic " didates Nigh last Monday night, I seePlan were beyond consideration. The hope for our district with the election of

Is It Truly a Miracle When EconomySurfaces at the Town School Board?

The Westfield Board of Education'slatest edition of "Emphasis," presentingand promoting the 1995-1996 schoolbudget, leaves one a trifle disheartened.

The new budget is variously repre-sented in "Enphasis" as entailing an in-crease of 2per cent and 2.12 per cenlovcrlast year's budget. This translates intoroughly $1 million over last year's ex-penditures. Despite that considerable sum,ihe school board and some candidatesrunning for the board feel a small miracleof frugality has been achieved.

Townspeople will discover in "Em-phasis" that over $750,000 are requestedlor alter-school activities, athletic andotherwise in former limes more trulh-luDy called extra-curricular activities oraif>ihleilcprogram.TMsmoney includesadditional emoluments to teachers loriheirsupervisory participation, as if Wcst-lt:ld teachers arc not already being hand-

somely enough compensated.As much as $50,000 is being requested

for an attendance officer and two clerkslo perform a function which, in yearspast, was also entrusted to teachers withno complaint.

Students who goof off during the ucu-demic year must be rehabilitated at pub-lic expense in ihe high school summersession. During the summer months, loo,members of the community who livehand-to month are asked to subsidize Ihe"enrichment" of elementary-school chil-dren. Isn't such enrichment a parentalresponsibility, not the community's?

In short, Westfielders have every rea-son to lake the Board of Education'sfiscal woes with a grain of sail. I, for one,,will vole against the hew school budget.

The present school board members andthe newly elected ones will be focusingon three main options to solve the over-crowded situation at our schools. Theoption that seems to be generating a lot of

. interest is the reopening ofLincoln School.,'One intent of reopening Lincoln School

is lo use it as a lownwide Kindergarten.This option would only frceuplwocloss-rooms at each of our elementary schools.

The other option being considered forLincoln School is to build on an additionand reopen it as an elementary school andrcdislricl from neighboring schools onthe soulhsidc. In conjunction with that, tocase the overcrowded situation on thenorthside, there would be an addition atpossibly Wilson School — which has oneof the smallest enrollments on Ihcnonhsidc—wiihredislricling from neigh-boring schools to lighten up Ihe loud atthe overcrowded schools on that side oftown.

This option would maintain our neigh-borhood schools at a reduced cost thanIhc last proposed bond.

A better solution might be to maintainihe present useof Lincoln School, add onto the two schools with the smallest en-rollment, one on each side of town andredisiricl from neighboring schools. Al-though rcdistricling is frowned upon, ifchildren from Ihc same surroundingblocks were rcdistrictcd together, theywould be going lo a new school but withold friends.

school functions very crowded. So itseems to make the most sense to add on toIhc school on the northside with the small-est enrollment, and to the school on thesouthsidc with the smallest enrollment,and then to redistrict from neighboring'schools. But even thiesdlutfon requires abond.

We can't solve Ihe overcrowded situa-tion in a practical and constructive waywithout a bond.

There is another idea being consideredlhal would not require a bond, but it is theleast desirable solution: Moving the fifthgraders over to the intermediate schools.The idea being considered is that if youeliminate programs at the intermediatelevel, the fifth graders could be movedover with the least amount of cost. Theprograms that would be eliminated arcwonderful programs that enrich the edu-cation of students at the intermediate level.

While this option is ihe least costlydollarwise, il is the most cosily program-wise. We should not consider solutionsthat lessen the programs we offer ourstudents. Also, il would not tree upenoughclassrooms at ihe elementary level any-way. And equally as important, you wouldbe moving loo young a student body intoan intermediate level of schooling. If wesettle for a solution that necessitates cut-ting programs, everyone loses.

So Ihe bottom line is that we needanother bond issue. Now thai we realizethe overcrowded situation effects all ourchildren, from kindergarten through 12thgrade, a revised bond issue is the onlysolution. This is hardly atemporary prob-lem; there is nothing "temporary" aboutbeing in school for 13 years.

Our Superintendent of Schools, Dr.Mark C. Smith, and our school boardmembers need your input in order tocome up with a favorable solution to theproblem. The school board does not wantto leave thing as they are; they are againstincreasing the amount of students in eachclassroom as a permanent solution. Theyare working on a recommendation thatwould maintain small classroom size.

You must make your preference andwillingness lo support a revised bondissue known to Dr. Smith and our schoolboard members, present and newlyelected, very soon before a solution ispresented that is not to your liking. Itneedn't be a long letter.

Simply put, it can state, "I support arevised issue of a bond lo solve ihe over-crowded situation in our schools." I amafraid that if support of a revised bondissue is not made known, a less cosily butmore ineffective solution may be recom-mended.

As a resident who has invested over 26years in this town and who has put fourchildren through this system, 1 must makethis point lo our town. I feel il is abso-lutely (rue that Dr. Mark C. Smith hasdictated his wishes to a rubber-stampingboard for Ihe past several years. How-ever, I am just as angry that this has beenallowed to happen by those members,because as we all know, it takes two totango.

If the members had not given up theirindependence and voice, they would neverhave lost their credibility.

Many years ago we had a similar prob-iem in Westfield, and I helped to change

the make-up by campaigning hard lorpeople that I fell were strong enough tomaintain their autonomy.

I find myself reliving that situationtoday, and I hereby ask the residents ofWestfield to make sure they vote in fourmen of our town who will deliver whatwe are sorely lacking —independenceand balance to keep our schools strongand our town affordable to its residents.

Mr. Sheflin Supplies His ReasonsTo Vote Against Four Hopefuls

You correctly note that I will not voteon Ihe teachers' contract. The teachers'contract comes up once every two tothree years. That means that once in mythree-year tenure I would have lo abstainfrom one vole. Just as Dr. B. Carol Molnardid on the custodians' contract. And justas Paul A Battitoro, Jr. will have to do onIhe school secretaries' contract, since hiswife is employed al the central office andis ulso the Vice President of her union.

Il is not an issue.What is an issue, however, is the fact

that you still don't get il. You still thinkthat numbers, not education and students,arc Ihe "si nglc biggest" issue we ha ve ratherthan supervision of instruction, human re-sources management, co-curricular activi-ties, elc.Y Would you have Ihe WestfieldBoard of Education become the">Employcrof the Least Common Denominator'.'" Islhal what the people of Westfield wouldwant for their children? I think not.

Finally, you ask to hear some "specificideas about how to improve on things."Done! Read last week's edition of TheWestfitld Leader, It's all spelled out onpage 25. Better, read today s edition andyou'll see it again. Heard enough?

Dr. Michael L. ManarcwCandidate

WestlUW Board of Education

Why I oppose the candidacies of PaulA. Baltiloro, Jr., Mark B. Boyd, MichaelA. J. FarreH and Keith S. Hertcll, despiteIhe fact they're nice guys and moan well,

• Because many of the issues theyraise arc unfounded, incorrect and fool-ish.

• Because I don't believe they haveany concrete, workable ideas to deal withthe issues they raise.

• Because they have been taking allsides of many issues, telling people whatthey want to hear.

• Because they have gone for Ihc easy,politically correct solutions like "cut thefat," when no one has demonstrated theexistence of such fat, and all objectiveevidence suggests a lean system

• Because they say they want admin-istrators and teachers to work harder, bemore creative, do more wilh less, behightcch, and, at the same time, they cullfor the easy politicians answer of cullingadministrators, cutting curriculum plan-ners, culling science coordinators, andcutting and capping their salaries.

• Because al various hoard and bud-get meetings, they have dcmonslrulcd asignificant lack of understanding of theissues facing our schools,

• Because they and their supportershave maneuvered usinloasituutkm whereour budget is cut, teachers arc fired,courses closed, resources reduced aridsolutions for enrollment increased arepostponed while more expensive optionsare examined.

• Because they have implied they willhe able to cul school spending in ihe faceof increased enrollment and increasedneeds for technology expenditures andwill embitter those who find lhal, in fuel,they will not be able to do this.

• Because they have implied there arceasy answers to the problems facing ourschools, and indeed most schools in NewJersey and the nation.

• Because Mr. Farrell has crilicimlthe board for having surplus funds in ihclast budget, and now criticizes them farnot having surplus funds for maintenancein this budget; because he has said lhal weshould slash teacher salaries andem teach-ers to save funds; because he claimed thebond-financed expansion was tooexpen-sjve, andjljen proposed speeding threetimes as'much for technology, and asmuch or more for the Lincoln Schoolreuse; because he implies there arc magi-cal costsavingsincurrcnt computer-basedtechnology, when there are no schooldistrict in Ihc country realizing such sav-ings — technology is good, but il isexpensive; because he implied enroll-'

men! increases were not a problem, just abubble, and because he misunderstandsstatistics, technology and education.

• Because Mr. Hertcll has proposedlittle except increasing sports in theschools, and perhaps setting up a volun-teer school system.

• Because Mr. Boyd has proposedturning over the administration of ourschools to Ihe county. Do they want it?He misunderstands thai a district of oursize has no need to do this. We are largeenough lo realize economies of scale andfixed-cost averaging, and small enoughto maintain local control and input. Whatdo you know about your country repre-sentatives? How often have you gone to acounty meeting'.' Because the state hasimplied lluit Mr. Boyd will gel us specialtreatment in Trenton because ufhis posi-tion. Because I believe in an independentschool systcincontrollcdby Westficldcrs.

• Because Mr llaililoro'seducationalconcerns appear limited to the LincolnSchool and animosity towards ihc cur-rent hoard arid adrninislraiion.

• Uccnusc none of Ihc sialc has unyparticular educational or experientialbackground qualifying them lo lead incurriculum or educational policy deci-sions, am! based an some of their publicMjlcnicnlb. I Jin dubious about their fi-nancial mid managerial acumen as well.

• Hecausc I'm leery of organized, co-ordinated efforts to gain control of ourschools, and I'm concerned about theirlinks with this newspaper and ils subtlytitled coverage.

• Because, most importantly, if theywin, I expeel to sec radical rather thanconservative changes in ourschools, strifeand friction, and much wasted energy,effort nnd money, while the serious chal-lenges that lay ahead arc ignored.

1 will vote for independent candidateswho will make effective, incremental andsensible changes.

I would like lo note that Ihe numbers,and some of the text in my letter pub-lislied last week were changed by TheWeslfield Leader, and my points iriad-verlenlly obscured. The correct figures,allhuugh I must admit that I had made atypo in my letter as well, based on asimplcprescnt vuluecalculalion revealedthai the cost of the Lincoln School re-opening and use over 20 years, under themost rnodcsl of financial assumptions,was equal lo, or greater than thai of thedefeated bond, and dial the promisedmagical alternative to the bond was Millto he found.

Mrs. Hardwick Brings Many TalentsAs a School Board Candidate

As we approach school board electionday, more people have had the opportu-nity lo hear all of the candidates speak lothe issues and their reasons for seeking ascat on Ihe board. I do believe that all theoffice seekers share a desire lo make theschool system better through the contri-butions of their lime and expertise. Theserious and arduous consideration thateach must have given to their very deci-sion to participate in this race should hematched in kind by our rigorous evalua-tion of their positions. We owe thai to ihccandidates, our children and the taxpay-ers.

Mrs. Virginia "Ginger" L. Hardwickshould be the appealing candidate to mostvoters. Raised in this fine town, she hasthe innate understanding of the educa-tional and social standards thatWcslficldcrs hold dear. A successfulgraduate of its schools, she knows howthe educational system functions in itsfinest moments.

Having cnoscnto raise her family here,she knows thai WcstfieWs commitmentto ils schools has not diminished throughthe years, And so you can sec that shebrings the combination of her uniqueperspective, her educational and busi-ness experiences as well as her knowl-edge of the strengths of the WcstficldSchool System to the board seat.

But il doesn't end there. I do believethat each generation of students brings aunique set of strengths and challenges toihe schools. This generation, the productof good preschool programs, educationalmaterials in the home, many of whom arealready working on computers, coirics lous with educational ability that far sur-passes that of other generations.

They also come to us have been ex-posed through television or experience lothose social problems that we all oncehad dreams of sheltering Ihem from. Ilike many olhcrs don"i believe thai goinghack to basics is appropriate lor a genera-

Mr. Farrell Seen as FailingIn Fiscal Responsibility, Integrity

Our community should be morallyoutraged by Ihc arrogance of Michael A.J. Farrell, a candidate for the Board ofEducation.

Fortunately for the voters, Mr. Farrcll'srecord of professional misconduct andfinancial mismanagement, in operating nsecurities business without the rcgula-lory net capital requirement, hus recentlybecome public knowledge.

What is so repugnant is that Mr. Farrellnever hesitated to rely on his professionalcredentials lo advance his fiscal solu-tions, especially during ihe bond debate.Now candidate Fancll maintains any dis-cussion of his professional misconduct,or incompetence, is a "personal utlack"and irrelevant lo his candidacy.

Unfortunately for Mr. Farrell. it is all

too relevant. The violations he admittedlo were fundamental and not technical innature, and the fine and punishment heaccepted were serious by industry stan-dards.

Mr. Farrell has demonstrated j markedfailure in two important board functions:Fiscal responsibility and fiscal intcpriiy.

Did his problems arise from grass ig-norance, negligence or something else?What really matters is lhal his report cardwas found in lime for ihc voters to makea mure informed choice from a field ofoutstanding candidates.

I hope Mr. Fanell and Ihe candidateswho continue lo endorse him come torealize what a hoax his candidacy hasbeen.

Children With Disabilities ActSeen in Trouble in Washington

Asa parent of achildwilhdisabililifs,I was distressed to find out that the reau-thorization of the Individuals with Dis-abilities Education Act is in jeopardy.

The act is the cornerstone federal stat-ute supporting a free and appropriate edu-cation at public expense for children withdisabilities.

Children with disabilities have the rightto a free and appropriate education justlike any other child. These rights arecurrently protected by the act, but it isnow in danger.

Opponents of it feel that federal legis-lation is not necessary and wish to leavethe futures of these children in the handsof the states and local school districts.

This will have disastrous consequences.Suites will no longer be mandated toprovide special services by the govern-ment. This will result in the eliminationof many special services.

Children with disabilities can now upto made positive contributions to oursociety, but the provision of special edu-cation services are essential.

Please help our children by writingyour congressmen and ask that the act bereauthorized.

Why All the Unending FussAbout the Strategic Plan?

The Scotch Plains-Fan wood StrategicPlan has been a controversial issue in ourcommunity since its introduction. The16-page booklet, commonly known asthe "Blue Book" due to its cover, contained many statements on which coinmunity members requested clarilicaliur.

Some members of ihecommunity wen.concerned that this foreshadowed a mu se-away from traditional grading emphasison measurable mastery of basic academicskills.

Quotes of concern from the [6-pugcbooklet:

• "We will always ..seek multiplemeasures and move toward alternativeassessments."

• "Personal Bests Portfolio to pro-mote self-reflection, self-esleem, selec-tion of best works across the curriculumand goal setting within the community oflearners reinforced Ihe fears that the dis-trict was planning to de-emphasize aca-demics."

• "Mentoringandlock-intoprovideaprogram for high school and middleschool students to help break down cul-tural and other barriers and to create newfriendships and bonding to compensatefor Ihe increase of dysfunctional fami-lies"

Many parents of the community wereconcerned with the level of psychologi-cal intervention implied, Ihe amount oflime diverted from academic studies, theinability lo gauge teacher effectivenessin the absence of measurable guidelinesand the heavy emphasis on vocational

skillsTaxpayers in general were concerned

about Ihe cost involved in implementa-tion. Various estimates have providedcosts ranging from $9 lo $25 million overthe first live years. The district alreadyhas many policies in place to addressevolving issues such as Ihe lole of tech-nology in the schools and adoption ofnewer teaching methods through the fi vc-ycar cyclical review process

Concerned citizens of the communityhave been unable to obtain satisfactoryanswers from school officials. The break-down in communications led lo a presswar raging in the editorials section of ourcommunity newspaper

The Scotch Plains-Fanwood Educa-tion Association has requested that theboard delay implementation of Ihe Stra-tegic Planpendingilsrcsolutiun. Variouscommunity groups are calling for a re-scission of Ihe plan.

I Guess in Love, YouGet What You Pay For

By LOUIS H.CLARKSpecially Wna<*forT>vV/ri$,UIUixU'm

Love is now on the informationhighway! Not love made in heaven,of course. Rather this is love made bymarriage brokers. Because no matterwhat they are calling themselvesnowadays, that is what they reallyare. No reason they shouldn't beamong the earliest uses of the high-way because they are one of the old-est professions on earth.

How do I know all this? Becausetwo of our good friends are franchi-sees in a national chain of "compat-ible" dating services. The professionis now fully computerized.

"Of course, we make them fill outlong forms when they come in andhave paid their fee," Alton said. "Butthat's only to see liow much theywere lying."

"They main office runs a check ontheircredit which tells us if Ihe clienteven wears red suspenders, let aloneif he's a bigamist, a felon on the run,or merely looking for a rich wife tobilk," Annette said.

"But there's a lot of intuition in-volved," her husband said. "Remem-ber C'edric?" His wife nodded. "Hewas posted on central records as adabbler. He liked to lake women out,get them all worked up and Ihendumpthem. It built up his ego. Ordinarily,I would have thrown him out, butAnnette had a feeling. We had a

woman on file who was as tough asnails in her own brokerage business."

"Let's try them together," I said.And we did. After a few dates, shecould see be was getting ready todump her.

"Look," she said. "1 happen to tikeyou, and whether you know it or notyou like me. Now we are going to getmarried or the roof will fall on yourhead, and I know just the people whocan do it. Got itT'

"He was so frightened they weremarried and for the last three yearshave sent us Christmas cards plus thefull fee."

"Which reminds me," I said. "Howcome you people charge such highrates when I can cut an ad out of thepaper?"

"Simple," Alton said. "When youpay 20bucks or soy ou're going togela $20 partner if you're going to getanyone human at all. Pay us fivehundred, which is Ihe absolute mini-mum, and you get our expertise plusall the photos and VCRs of eligiblepeople from our 200 offices aroundthe country!"

"I guess even in love you gel whatyou pay for"

All your youth you want to have yourgreatness liken for granted; when youfind it taken for grant«d, you are un-nerved.

'Minimal Competence' Seen as the NormOf Town's Educational Establishment

As the parents of four school-age chil-dren, my wife and I moved lo Westficldthree years ago in large part because ofthe reputation of Westfield schools.

Sad to say, we have been disappointed.I think there are discipline problems at

the intermediate schools and ihe highschool, but my biggest complaint is —not high taxes—but the academic medi-ocrity which is not only tolerated butcultivated.

I don't read a-iout any WestinehouseScholars, or National Merit Scholars andonly a handful of our high school gradu-ates go to the lop colleges.

If you agree thai the Westfield schoolsystem should demand excellence ratherthan settle for "minimal competence,"

then you should vole for Michael A. J.Farrell, Keith S. Hertell, Paul A. Balliloro,Jr. and Mark B. Boyd on April 18.

in particular. I enthusiastically supportMr. Farrell because he is very bright, veryhard working and very forceful; in short,all the qualities one would look for in aleader.

It is precisely because of those quali-ties that he represents such a threat to theoverblown.overpaid academic establish-ment that they feel the need io resort tolast-minute, desperate personal attacks.

Of all ihc candidates, Mr. Farrell is theone I want to lead the Wesifielii Board ofEducation into the 21st century.

Seems lo inc an important war wasfought over ihis issue some lime back.

My concern prompted me lo seek elec-tion. I am not a one issue candidate. I amconcerned about spending money beforeit comes in. I am concerned aLiout therefusal to publicly dcbnlc llie merits ofthe plan. I am concerned about Ihc tech-nology path our district has selected.

My daughter, Mis Virginia "Ginger"L. Hardwick, is running for the schoolboard in Westfield. As someone whorepresented you in the State Assemblyfor 14 years, I know how hard that firstpublic campaign can be. So I asked her ifI could please write a letter lo friends lourge them lo look carefully at her qualifi-cations and the issues in this importantelection.

Naturally, as her father, I want lo helpher even though I no longer live in West-ficld. But 1 would encourage voters totrust her because she comes from a tradi-tion of fiscal prudence. She has alwaysworked hard, and she knows the value

and importance of every taxpayer dollar.Of course, she is a strong advocate for

children; she has three of her own — mygrandchildren — in Westfield schools.She really wants value for the taxpayersand quality for our children.

Our family chose Westfield as our home25 years ago because we wanted a goodeducation for our children and to be as-sured of sound local government. That'sthe tradition she will uphold.

I hope you'll consider her carefullyand place your trust in her. You can dothat with confidence.

Board Decisions ImpactOn Students: Mrs. Walsh

"] am seeking my second term as amember of Board of Education be-cause [ value education and want tobe part of the 'l<"< kt.in-nuiking pro-cess that alleei.-, uui iluidicii and ourcommunity," stated Mrs DandleWalsh, an incumbent seeking reelec-tion to the Westfleld Board of Educa-tion.

"S ervi ng the comin unity as a schoolboard member means making acom-mitment to all the children and work-ing to provide the best possible edu-cation in a fiscally responsible man-ner. The decisions made by schoolboard meinbers rcgnrding policies andgoals impact every child in the dis-trict," she said.

"We must always look to the futureand decide what skills and abilitieswill be necessary for our children tofunction effectively in their post-highschool years," she added.

"Maintaining a balance betweenconcerns of board members, parents,professionals and community is achallenge. Board members must beable lo make difficult, and some-times unpopular decisions, while ad-dressing the needsof the children andresponding to the expectations of di-verse community groups," she said.

"Responsiveness to the citizens ofthe community must be a primaryobjective of ihe board. We must listencarefully and recognize the entirecommunity as our constituency. Theissues facing the education commu-nity are complex; there are no simple

answers," Mrs. Walsh said."It is important to provide curricu-

lum and programs that identify andmeet the educational needs of all ourstudents. We must maintain .smallerclass sizes in theelementaty schools,continue to offer programs thai al lowa broad range of experiences in theupper grades and constantly and sys-tematically evaluate the profession-als and support staff development inorder to promote excellence in edu-cation," she said.

"We must look at creative ways tocontinue quality programs in a morecost-effective manner. Academicachievement mustbetheprimary goalof our schools and improved studentlearning our focus," she said.

"It is crucial to elect board mem-bers who best represent the educa-tional goals, values and ideals of itscitizenry. My broad-based experienceas a board member, parent, volunteerand business owner have providedroe with a unique and comprehensiveinsight into the school system andcommunity," Mrs. Walsh observed.

"I believe 1 have the skills neces-sary to meet the challenges of thefuture. I look forward to continuingto devote my time and efforts to helpresolve issues and to make informeddecisions for the betterment of thestudents, the district and the commu-nity," she said.

Albeit and Laura C/arWest field

Two-year school board candidate,Paul A. Battiloro, Jr., has raised thequestion as to why the Westfieldschool board accepted the report con-cerning Lincoln School, withoutpay-ment to the vendor, Disko Associ-ates.

Mr. Battiloro said the Disko reportwas a more accurate assessment ofthe facility then the Faridy reportwhich called the structure "code de-ficient."

In correspondence to Mr. Battilorodated March 10, Dr. RobertC. Rader,the Assistant SuperintendenlforBusi-ness, slated he had ordered Ihe reportat the request of the Long RangePlanning Committee and acceptedthe report because fees for projectssuch as those identified in (he reportare normally paid as a percentage of

the construction costs when theproject is completed.

"Why wasn't this the case with theFaridy Report which cost the taxpay-ers $52,426?" Mr. Battiloro asked.

"It seems the board is acting on adouble set of standards when it comesto spending the taxpayer's money.Faridy gels paid, Disko does not.Does this mean the board is nowobligated to DiskoAssociates for pro-fessional services in the future? Howdo we know the cost of the report wilinot be built into future feessubmittedby Disko?," asked Mr. Battiloro.

Mr. Batliloro also staled the resolution for the 1985 bond referendumincluded Lincoln School in its majorrepair program and not one penny ofthat money ever went to improvingthe facility.

Our District's Accomplishments

Get Little Praise: Mr. Toriello"This year's school election has

brought into focus (he ilmsivenessthat has crept into our KIWH s discus-sions in the past >cai 1 lit divisiveness is fueled n\ cntiasins of Ihcdistrict thai do not also acknowledgethedisti id's accomplishment," statedJohn M. Toriello, a candidate for thetwo-year slot open on the WeslfieldHoard of Education.

"For example, Ihose who are moststrident about cutting administrationrefuse to acknowledge that this yearthe staic F.ducation Department ratedall district'iidministrativcetfieiency.The late gave Westfield the highestawaal. Must districts received noiiwai J, some u lesser award, and somewen penalized up to $ I million," hesaid

" 1 lie biKirdtun no jui ibiuu better,but its efforts to streamline adminis-tration have been long-term and ac-complished in a nondisruplive fash-ion. Those efforts also recognize thatthe administration provides the man-agement for the schools and is animportant part of our district's suc-cess," he explained.

"Similarly sonic criticize the dis-trict for supposedly overlooking Lin-coln School as I he answer to the grow-ing student enrollments. These indi-viduals also profess a commitment tofiscal responsibility. Lincoln School,however, isprobably the most expen-sive alternative now under consider-ation," Mr. Toriello slated.

"Whether an elementary school orKindergarten center recommended

renovations exceed SI million An-nual operating costs and lost incomewill exceed $350,000. If a Kinder-garten center, there will no doubt besubstantial busing costs as well If anelementary school, substantial redis-tricting from the Northside to theSouthside will be required," he said.

"Lincoln School is anexcitingpossibilily, but it needs In be weighedand compared against the other altnnatives," he said.

"The district needs fa pull past llicnegativism engendered by thesetytn.sof atlacks. We should return to UMcommunity's shared vision: Reci't;nize the value of oureducationalsystern <md seek to improve if. In thisvein, Ihe needs of the district go beyoiu) the enrollmenl problem," hesaid.

'•Technology is both an opporMinity and a challenge. I have spukcijwithanumbcrofrcsidentswhoworkindislricis (hat have infused technol-ogy into thecurriculum.These peoplecnthusiasucallydescribe Ihe students'interest and academic progress. Simi-larly, a review of our middle schoolsis needed to see where improvementscan be made and how students maybe challenged to reach their full po-tential," he said.

"It is time that we parents, taxpay-ers and citizens put divisiveness be-hind us. Please vote on April 18 andwith that vote put quality educationwith fiscal responsibility atthe top ofWestfield's agenda," Mr. Torielloconcluded.

Continuing Quality EducationIs My Goal: Mrs. Satkin

According to Mrs. Eileen Satkin,the greatest challenge facing theBoard of Education is the continua-tion of Westfield's high-quality edu-cation within the financial constraintsmandated by the community and StateLegislature. "The school board andthe community must work together,as partners, to guarantee a qualityeducation for every student," she said.

As a memberof the Westpeld Boardof Education, Mrs. Satkin is pres-ently the Chairwoman of the Pro-grams and Policies Committee. Shehas also served on theFactliliesCom-mittee, the Long-Range PlanningCommittee, the Attorney SelectionCommittee as well as the negotiatingteams for the district's secretaries andparaprofessionals.

"Mrs. Salkin's professional back-ground, as both an occupational thera-pist and educator, has given her aunique perspective on the schoolboard. For the past three years, shehas worked as a consultant in theCranford Public Schools providingoccupational therapy to special edu-cation students. The candidate previ-ously taught social studies in NewYork City as well as anatomy, pathol-ogy and humandevelupmentat UnionCounty College," a spokeswomansaid.

"Mrs. Satkin's thorough under-standing of the educational processhas enabled her to analyze the long-term implications of board decisions.She has provided educational over-sight by carefully scrutinizing thecurriculum and staff allocations. Thisyear, the Finance Committee includedone of her recommendations in thebudget. She suggested that the teach-ing load of the sixth-grade teams be

increased. In sodoing, the district haseffectively reduced four leachingpositions without compromising thequality of education," he added.

"Mrs. Satkin promises to continueworking hard to solve theovercrowd-ing in our schools. She feels we mustcarefully balance the need to studythe viable alternatives with the ur-gency of implementing a solution.However, Mrs. Satkin believes thedistrict clearly needs board memberswhose commitment goes beyond thisone issue," he said.

"Mrs. Satkin earned her mastersdegree from Columbia University andher bachelor's degree cum laude fromWilliam Smith College," he added.

Mrs. Satkin and her husband,Slephen, have lived in Westfield for12 years. They have two children.Scoit is in the fifth grade at JeffersonSchool, and Beth is an eighth graderat Edison Intermediate School whowill be entering Westfield HighSchool next fall.

Battiloro,Bovil, Farrcll, and Hertell claim thiit our school system is falling apart, that our children needto "be put in uniforms and subject lo discipline, that we need to go back to the educationalmethods of a century ago, and that our award winning schools are a mess. Under pressure bytheir supporters, we have seen our budgets cut in the face of rising enrollments, teachers andcourses terminated, and efforts lo deal with enrollment increases turned down iit favor of moreexpensive, ami less elleelive approaches. Attendees al Board anil Budget meetings have seenhow liltle Messrs. Battiloro, Boytl, Farrcll, ami Hertcll know of educational and financialissues and how their positions change to match the audience. And no one has heard them offeranv concrete proposals to deal with the problems Ilicy claim ravage our schools, save for Mr.Bovd who wants to have the county administer our schools.

Legislationcospon sored by Assem-bly man Alan M. Augustine of ScotchPlains to help take the needless con-fusion and complexity out of stateadministrative rules and regulationsnow awaits Assembly considerationfollowing its release by akey Assem-bly committee.

"Just because lawyers write therules doesn't mean that someoneshould have to be a lawyer to readandunderstand them," AssemblymanAugustine said. He is co-prime spon-sor of the bill with AssemblymanJeffrey A. Warsh, a Republican fromMiddlesex County.

Assembly Bill No. 2691 would re-quire state agencies to write adminis-(i alive rules in plain language or riskthe voiding of any proposed regula-tion that fails to meet an easily read-able standard. The Office of Admin-istrative Law would be authorized torefuse lo accept a proposed rule whichdocs not comply.

The Assembly Regulatory Over-sight Committee released the billMarch 27, after incorporating anamendment that would enable theGovernor, upon written request of astale agency, to waive the plan lan-guage requirement for rules adoptedprior lo the effective date of the bill.

The legislation is designed to helpimprove public understanding andcompliance with state administrativelaws, which are so often the target ofcriticism —particularly in the busi-ness community — because of ob-tuse and confounding language.

"Bad language makes bad law,since people cannot be expected tocomply with certain technical rulesand regulations that they are unableto read und understand," Assembly-man Augustine said.

Poorly written administrative lawalso promotes litigation generated bychallenged lo state regulations lhatbusinesses fail to understand. Theworkload of employees in stale agen-cies is also increased by poorly writ-ten rules and regulations that prompttelephone calls and letters demand-ing clarification from citizens andorganizations, he said.

Assemblyman Alan M. Augustine

The bill also established preciseparameters for language that wouldbe considered unacceptableunder thebill, including proposed regulationsthat:

• Contain cross i eferences that areconfusing, vague or insufficientlyexplained

• Employ lengthier sentences thannecessary or language not conform-ing to modern usage.

• Use sentences that includedouble negatives «r make referenceto "exceptions lo exceptions."

• Put sentences and/or sections inconfusing or illogical otder.

• Use words with obsolete mean-ings or legal meanings that contradictordinary colloquial understanding orlanguage which is cither unnecessar-ily technical ordefiescurrent modernAmerican usage.

"Rules or regulations lhat are poorlywritten or not understandable aremore apt to deviate from administra-tive intent, thereby defeating theirentire purpose," Assemblyman Au-gustine staled.

Assemblyman Augustine repre-sents portions of Union, Somerset,Morris and Middlesex Counties, in-cluding Westfiekl, Scotch Plains andFunwood.

Resurrection MarkedBy Easter on Sunday

Westfield'sChristians will join iheirbrethren the worldoverthis Sundayin observing Easter, the festival celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christon the third day after His crucifixion.

This principal festival of the Christian Church Year traces its originsback to the beginnings of Christianity, and it is probably the oldestChristian observiltice after Sunday, which came to be regarded as theweekly celebration uf the resurrection.

Western Christians celebrate Easier on the firs! Sunday after the fullmoon that occurs upon or next after the vernal equinox, March 21.

If the full moon occurs on a Sunday, Kaster day is the Sunday after,fiaster, therefore, can fall between March 22 and April 25.

]n the fiastern Onhodnx Church, however, a slightly different calcula-tion is lollowed, with the result the Orthodox Easter, although sometimescoinciding with that of the West, can fall one, four or five weeks later.

The festival of Easier occurs on a particular Sunday, but ils importanceis emphasized in the worship of the church by the long preparation of Lentand by Holy Week, with its solemn services and by the following sevenweeks until Pentecost (Whitsunday).

Easter is central to the whole Christian year; not only does the entireecclesiastical calendar of movable feasts depend upon its date but thewhole liturgical year of worship is arranged around it.

In the liturgical texts the emphasis is laid on its being the ChristianPassover (the time of redemption.)

Jewish Passover FeastBegins This Saturday

Area Jewish congregations in Wesl field and Scotch Plains will join theirfellow Jews worldwide beginning at sundown this Saturday, April 15, in theobservance of Passover, an eight-day feasl marking the anniversary of theExodus of the Israelite people from slavery in Egypt.

The term Passover is derived from the Hebrew lerm, "pasah," and it com-memorates the fact the Lord is thought to have passed over the houses of theIsraelites sprinkled with the blood of a sacrificial lamb on their doorposts whenHe inflicted the last of Ihc 10 plagues on the Egyptians.

JEWS eat unleavened bread, called mazzah, during Passover because theIsraelites, when leaving Egypt, were so hurried they took their dough before itwas leavened.

Nothing madeofleaven.hamez, may bceaten during Passover, or even foundin a Jew's possession.

Observant Jews only may cat those products during Passover which arcprepared under Rabbinic supervision and certified as kosher or permitted forPassover use.

The seder, or festive Passover meal, which is held on the first two nights ofPassover, is enhanced by Ihc presence of symbolic foods, each designating anaspect of Israel's age-old struggle for freedom.

The story of Passover and the explanation of the symbolic foods arc found ina book called the Haggadah which is read during the seder.

Bone Marrow Drive SlatedFor April 20 at MuhlenbergTen-year-old Laura Graves re-

ceived the first successful bone mar-row transplant in 1979 from a non-relative in Seattle, Washington to helptreat a fatal blood disease, leukemia.Today, over3,142 bonemarrow trans-plants between non-relative individu-als have taken place in the UnitedStates.

To raise public awareness aboutbone marrow donation, MuhlenbergRegional Medical Center, will host abone marrow drive on Thursday. April20, in Centennial Hall from 5 a.m. to7 p.m. Participants will be educatedabout becoming a volunteer donorand the donation process. A simpleblood donation will be taken lodeter-mine tissue type. This in formal ionwill later be entered into the NationalBone Marrow Registry.

Some day, if participants are luckyenough to be a perfect match, theymay be asked to give a small amountof their bone marrow, which is takenfrom the back of the donor's pelvicbone. The marrow will r .iiurally bereplenished by the body within Iwoweeks.

The National Bone Marrow Regis-try is a computerized list of all volun-teer donors in the United States whohave been tissue typed. This registry,which is maintained by the NationalMarrow Donor Program, matches

those in need of bone marrow withsuitable donors. On any given day,over 2,000 searches go through theregistry on behalf of thepatients with,fatal blood diseases. There are cur-rently more than 1.5 million volun-teer donors who are listed in the reg-istry. "Unfortunately, that isn'tenough," a spokesman said,

"Because bone marrow types areinherited, a perfect match will mostlikely occur within the same racial orethnic group as the patient. Findingmatches between non-related indi-viduals is particularly difficult forblack, Asian/Pacific Islander, His-panic and American Indian patientsbecause they are underrepresented inthe national registry," he said.

"To help increase the number ofminority volunteer donors in the reg-istry, a federal grant from the Depart-ment of the Navy makes it possiblefor all these minorities to be typedfree of charge at any time," he added.

The Muhlenberg Foundation do-nated funding, so the first 100 regis-trants who do not meet the Depart-ment of the Navy's requirements forfreetesting can also be tested for free.Those registering after the first 100,funds have also been al located by theNational MarrowDonor Program, sothe test will only cost $22.50.

other groups.Billings became the focus of national

attention last year, according to a spokes-woman, when two Jewish homes wereattacked before and during the festival ofChanulcah in the wake of numerous biasincidents.

Citizens from the Union County Com-mittee were invited to spearhead educa-tional program out in Montana to makeresidents more sensitive and more vigi-lant to racism and anti-Semitism, accord-ing to Project Co-Director Dr. BernardWeinstein.

One man wiio helped come lo the res-cue, who will address the forum in West-field, is Billings Police Chief WayneInman. It was he who helped form thecoalition and declared war on all bias-hate crimes against American Indians,blacks, Jews and gays.

Even non-Jewish community residentsput paper menorahs in the windows oftheir houses as agestureof solidarity withtheir Jewish neighbors, Dr. Weinsteinsaid.

"We are grateful to the Union CountyCommittee Against Hate for bringing usthe story of the Billings experience be-cause it is a true story that teaches us theimportance of standing up to hale mon-gers and bullies," said Mr. Ruololo, whopersonally tried the first anti-bias crimecase in New Jersey before a jury and wona conviction.

The forum, which will include a video-taped interview for public broadcast oncable and public television, will highlightan entire week of events scheduledthroughout the county to help alert indi-viduals and communities as to what theycan do.

First Assistant Prosecutor Michael j .LaPolla, who chairs Ihe Union CountyHuman Relations Commission, said theforum represents a wonderful opportu-nity lo hear firsthand what happens whenthere is a call for all to stand togetheragainst injustice.

Recent annual report compilations in-dicate the prosecutor's office assisted locallaw enforcement ininvestigating95biasincidents in 1994 compared with 88 in1993, Mr. LaPolla said.

Five actual bias crimes were prosecutedagainst juveniles in the Family Court andthree against adults in the Superior Courtwith convictions against all, he added.The office has a bias unit with two ser-geants and a detective on call 24-hours aday. There is no charge for the Thursdaynight community forum, officials said,and there will be interpreting for the hear-ing impaired and refreshments after theprogram.

Today this intersectiondoes not have the village-like look that it had over 50 years ago. The concreteroad pavement, which was typical uf that era, has been resurfaced withmacadam and curbing has since been added to txrth sides of the thoroughfare.While the large Irees no longer grace the roadway, the young trees that wereplanted there recently will sumeday be worthy successors. The double stormdrains and Ihe fire hydrant are located toddy where they were then and serve asconvenient reference points. Whal is now the Livingston-Wilbur Corporationbuilding was then a I exacu gasoline station with the pumps located right at theedge of the roadway. The convertible coupe in the parked position with its wideband white wall tires was a popular model in that lime. Parked right behind itIs the 1940's version of the panel truck or van. The sign prominently advertisescoal which then was the fuel of choice for residential use.

Necessity makes even the timid hr;ive.— Xilffu.U

Assemblyman Richard H. Bagger,a Republican representing Westfieid,Scotch Plains and Fanwood, re-quested this week that the Commis-sioner of Education, Dr. Leo F.Klagholz, evaluate Westfieid Boardof Education candidate Mark B.Boyd's proposal lo consolidate schoolbusiness functions and share admin-istrative services.

Mr. Boyd proposed two weeks agothat the court ordered loss of stateeducation aid to suburban communi-ties like Weslfield could be offset bysavings from sharing central officeadministrative functions with otherUnion County school districts.

Specifically.Mr.Boyd'splan wouldhave these business functions fundeddirectly as part of the state budget andadministered by the County Superin-tendent of Schools. These expensesare currently funded by local prop-erty taxes.

"This plan would benefit West-field in two ways," Mr. Boyd ex-plained. "First, it would reduce ad-ministrative costs by improving effi-ciency. Second, it would return someof Westfield's income tax dollars tosupport our local schools in a wayacceptable lo the courts."

Assemblyman Richard H. Bagger

"Mark Boyd's proposal deservesseriousconsideration," AssemblymanBagger stated. "I have asked Com-missioner Klagholz to review andcomment on this plan as pan of theschool funding changes (he courtsare requiring the state lo make."

Candidate Retains Attorney,Vows to File Libel Suit

commiEt>FiiOMP*et iCitadel's clients were never jeopar-dized nor were any financial lossesincurred by its customers attributedto the. accounting firm's error.

Mr. Farrell said neither he nor anyof his companies ha ve e ver been suedby any investor, institution or regula-tory authority in court " in any city,slate or country."

The school board candidate hasfiled a lawsuit againsitbe accountingl inn , seeking damages due to theharm the "bad advice" caused hisbusiness.

"We are pursuing them for liabili-ties resulting from the incompetentwork," he noted.

Mr. Farrell compared his responsi-bility in (he mailer to that of a tax-payer who hires an accountant tocomplete their taxes. He noted, if anerror is m/ide, the taxpayer is stillresponsible to (he Internal RevenueService.

Mr. Farrell told The Leader lhat thereJease of the information lo TheRecord was done by persons support-ing the efforts of his opponents in theschool board race.

He noted that he came into posses-sion of a Lexis Nexis report fromsomeone following the CandidatesNigl i t on April 6 aflerthe informationwas left behind by an unknown per-son. The report is a computerizedbiography systemthat is used to trackdata on companies. The material leftat the Candidates Nighl was a print-out of lhat report.

Mr. Farrell said he has turned overthe report to his attorney and to theinvesiigaior who are trying to use theinformation to track the person whosolicited ihe information.

"It's one pan of the puzzle," heexplained.

"This smear tactic is the low pointof what has been a long and arduousroad tothe voting booth," Mr. Farrellsaid. "This is a serious and mean-spiriled effort lo defame my charac-ter 1 wil l use all of my resources topursue this matter lo the very end."

"There are no words to describethe feelings that I felt when TheRecord called me, in the middle of abusiness meeting, lodiscuss the pack-age they had received from a persononly known to them," said Mr. Farrell.

M r Farrell had asked The Recordto release the name of the person whogave them the packet of informationafter he was told the source was nei-ther confidential nor anonymous. Healso requested that the newspapercontact his attorney, who specializesin securities law, before printing thearticle.

A representative of the newspaperexplained he was not sure the slorywas worthy of publication, yet primedihe slory without contacling his law-yer, Mr. Farrell said.

"The next thing I knew there's atabloid type of headline staring meand my family in the face," he said,adding that his attorney contactedForbes Newspapers, the publ isher ofThe Record, lo ask them to reveal thename of the individual responsiblefor this acl.

Mr. Parrel! said since announcinghis candidacy in February, he hasbeen threatened, had a tire flattenedor his car while he was attending aBoard of Education meeting and hasreceived a number of "crank" tele-phone calls.

"No mailer what personal attackstake place, 1 am determined to see(his race lo its conclusion. I want thepeople of Westfield to publicly knowwho's responsible for this and under-stand thai this ends right here.

" I wil l resolve this issue in ihepublic eye. Based on the outpouringof support I've received, a sense ofhealing needs to lake place. There isno place for lliis type of despicableaclion in Weslfield," the candidateadded.

Mr. Farrell \MTheStar-Ltdger\nan article published Apri l 7 that ihereleaseoflhe information to the presswas " i i personal attack which is ablatant attempt to discredit me forasking difficult questions concern-ing the accountability ol'the Board ofEducation lo its taxpayers."

The town operates nine schoolbuildings, the district's administra-tive offices on Elm Street, and theformer Lincoln School bui ldingwhich is leased to the Union County[Educational Services Commission.

Mayor Boolhe said the transportationagency's report, i f adopted with Ihe ap-proval of the store, would cause longtraffic delays on Central Avenue, since(he North and Central Avenues trafficsignal would be changed, thus creatinglonger red light time on Central Avenue.

He said the ShopRite was "not a goodplan and is not in the best interest ofWestfield." Mayor Boothe said the Plan-ning Board did not "drag out" the hear-ing. Rather, tie said Village changed itsplan numerous times. He said the storesize was reduced twice and the front yardand rear yard setbacks included in orderto meet all the variances.

The Mayor said he envisions an officepark setting on the property. He said thetown needs to reverse the process overthe last few years by getting retail busi-nesses back into downtown and pushingoffices lo Ihe outskirts of the town.

Mayor Boothe added Ihal it "makes nosense" to approve the supermarket whichsells many of the same products lhal canbe found in smaller retail stores in thedowntown area. He said the store wouldbe "counterproductive" lo the lown's"zoning scheme."

A special meeting has been scheduledfor Saturday, April 22, at 10 a.m. for thead optionof Ihe ordinance. Mayor Boothenoted Ihe meeting will only be held if thetown is successful in its appeal.

Despite the holdup in Ihe re/.onmg ofthe lumberyard site, the remainder of theamended land use ordinance, Ihe zoningportion of the 1991 Master Plan, wasadopled and will go into effect immedi-ately.

During the almost one-and-half-hourpublic hearing on the ordinance, u vocalcrowd of residents filled the CouncilChambers. Many of those who spoke insupport of the ordinance did they fearedShopRilc would cause a detriment to thedowntown by causing traffic bottlenecksand would hurl the lown's central busi-ness district.

Mrs. Michelle Picou, the Manager ofthe Weslfield MainStrcct program, read aprepared Iwo-page statement in whichshe supported the ordinance. She pointedout that Ihe state Department of Trans-portation has recommended several traf-fic changes with regard lo North Avenuefor which il has jurisdiction.

In the report, the department said itwould support the proposal if severalchanges were made lo (he traffic mitiga-tion plan concerning Route No. 23. Onechange would be changing lares at thesite of (lie store which arc currently forleft turns and through traffic to solely leftturn lanes. Mrs. Picou said this would"con&lrict" through traffic in bath direc-tions to one lane along the roadway.

Mrs. Picou said the tumi ng lanes wouldprevent cars from exiting businesses nearthe North and Central Avenues intersec-tion. In addition, she said motorists exit-ing from Wyckoffs Slcakhouscs lot onihe west to Elmer Slrcclonihecasi wouldno lunger be able to turn left unto NorthAvenue.

Shesaidlhetraffic changes would havea "distinctively negative impact" on thedowntown area businesses and causemany of Ihem lo fail. Mrs. Picou addedthe Weslfield MainStrcct program sup-ports the rezoning of the eastern part ofthe town lo disallow retail use on both

"Such retail operations, particularly ifexpanded in size by a combination withland in Garwood, would have both long-and short-term deleterious effects ondowntown Weslfield," she stated.

Jeffrey Lehrer, an attorney represent-ing Village Supermarkets, disputed thetown's amended zoningordinanceonboth"moral" and "legal" grounds. He said hisclient spent "several hundred thousanddollars" during the application. He saidthe Planning Board, which held 37 meet-ings on the application, should have beenallowed to make its determination on themanner.

Mr. Lehrer said trie "lighting speed" atwhich the council brought the documenttoa vote proved that the governing body'sdecision was "politically based."

"1 would call this a fairy tale ordi-nance, because il has no basis of reality,1"he said.

In terms of the section of the ordinancewhich opposes multi-jurisdiction devel-opments, Mr. Lehrer said i l is "well-known" that a boundary line does form alot line.

The attorney warned the council of theliability and punitive damages il facesshould it adopt Ihe rezoning of the lum-beryard lot

"Village Supermarkets will do what-ever is necessary in order to protect itsinterests. I implore you lo defeat thisordinance," said Mr. Lehrer.

Former First Ward Councilman An-thony M. LaPorta said he felt the ordi-nance "as right for Weslfield" and that"ShopRile was wrong for Westfield." Hesaid he thought il was "disgusting" thatVillage "brought Councilman Greco'sfamily into this."

Dr. David Nowicki of Tremoni Av-enue said the ordinance would place anadditional "roadblock" in the way ofVillage's attempt to seek approval of itssupermarket. He said ShopRite wantcdlobuild (he largest store they could withoutthe need for variances.

"Without this ordinance we will get aShopRile,"said Dr. Nowicki, adding lhatthe document would preserve the resi-dential character of Westfield.

"It's not about political pressure. It isabout whal's good for Westfield." hesaid.

RoberiTellofKnollwoodTerracesaidthe ordinance was "flawed," because itwas "single-minded and singe-targeted"lo slop ShopRite form coming into thetown.

He said Westfield was no longer a vitalcommunity, stalinglhat many businesseshave been heaving over the past fewyears. Mr. Tell, in objecting to the ordi-nance, said tie town needs a "facelift."

Richard McDowell, the owner of twoproperties that would be impacted by thezoning changes North Avenue, said theordinance wouldjcopardizetheeconoiru'csurvival of his business,

"I ihink the town should suppun thosewho support ihe town," he staled.

George Rogers, who has owned tealestate business since 1955, said the In-creased traffic from Ihc SliopRite wouldhave a "detrimental" effect on the town.

Daniel Bernstein, Mr. Sevell's attor-ney, said his client not only objects !o theimpact on ShopRilc which would becaused by ihc ordinance but on any futureexpansion of the lumberyard.

The attorney noted the lumberyardwould not be a permitted use and thuswould have to go before Ihc Board ofAdjustment to seek variances for expan-sion. He asked the council to change thezoning to enable Mr. Sevell to build onhis property without having lo get theboard's approval.

lion to seek further information on thestale's statute concerning such a viola-tion.

Officials said earlier this week thatthey will instruct all district emptoyecsthat school equipment may not be uti-lized to promote campaign issues.

Mr. )-arrcll said he was told the cam-paign flier and an advertisement inoppo-silion to the so culled "slate" of candi-dates running inTucsday's Board of Edu-cation race was brought lo ihe meeting bythe parent who Ihcn later was allowedinto the copying roam by a school custo-dian.

When contacted by The Leader onTuesday, schooiofficialsdownplaycdtricissue, stating while they realized electionrules wercbroken, the matter boileddownto the simple non-pei milted use of schoolequipment to duplicate and distributecampaign materials.

Dr. Smith noted that, while there wassufficient information that a violation ofthe slate school election laws did occur,"the parent probably did not realize whatshe did was wrong.11

TheSuperinlendenlnolcdthat Mr. Peckhas been in regular contact wilh Mr.Farrell's attorney since Tuesday.

Mr. Peck said at first the parent did notbreak any laws. He said the incident sim-ply involved the unauthorized use ofschool property.

Dr. Smith said the parent will be re-quired toreimbursc Ihe district for the useof the paper and Ihe copying machine.

Mr. Farrell saidhe was "outraged" thaia member of ihe community would bepcrmitlcd touseichool property. He saidschool officials are "obligated" to makesure that all school election laws are fol-lowed.

The candidate said he was not satisfiedwith the initial decision of Dr. Smitri andMr. Peck nol to lake any legal actionagainst the parent. Mr. Fancll said hetoldDr. Smith he considered the issue a "seri-ous" matter, and he wants further actiontaken against Ihose responsible.

"This is a clear violaiion of the cam-paign laws." he slated.

Mr. Farrell said he docs not hold thecustodian, the schoolboard, the adminis-tration or the school's principal respon-sible.

The Scolch Plains-Fanwood HighSchool Boys1 VarsilyTcnnisTcam closedout a very successful week of pluy withtwo impressive victories over ihc Sum-mit Mi Illoppers on April 5, and al OratoryPreparatory School of Summit on April7. The wins elevated the squads seasonrecord to 3-Ocnlcring this week's action,where (he (cam faced Union Catholic.Shaba//, and Irvingion.

The Raiders had to sweat out two nar-row wins, hold by match scores of 3-2.

In Summit, junior Chris Borighl wasvictorious a( the II rstsinglcs position 7-5.fi-0. His match was actually tied at 5-5 inIhc first scl before he reeled off cighlgames lo run away with the contest,Boright has stepped in nicely for theRaiders, who had been playing withoutits lop (wo players, Arjun Viswanalhanand Kevin Squires.

Borighl will move back to Ihc thirdsingles slot when they both return.

Al second singles and third singles,respectively, junior Keith Kopnicki andsophomore JaredDuvoisin were both vic-tims of defeat. Coach Dave Blackmnnhad his doubles pairs clicking, though.The senior tandem of Jordan Hymun andRich Lee earned a wcll-dcscrvcd three-set victory 6-3,6-7 and 6-2.

"Summit has a very powerful learn, bulwe pulled through and won the match. Ithink this win proves (hat we arc also avery competitive squad," said Lcc.

While Ihc Raiders doubles squads pro-vided (he .spark in Summit, it was a differ-ent story against Oratory. Perhaps Ihchighlight of Ihc match was the muchanticipated return of junior Squires to theline-up. He had been suffering from walk-ing pneumonia.

In Ihc first singles spol, Squires wonhis opening match of the season by thescore of 6-2. 7-5. Boright. pushed tosecond singles, also won. Duvoisin re-bounded from his defeat on April 5 to win6-3.6-4.

While, the singles players were click-ing, the doubles learns were having theirdifficulties. Hyman and Lcc, normallyvery consistent, fell victim to a slew oferrors, losing 4-6,4-6. The two said (heyare confident that they just had one of(hose bad days.

At second doubles, Kopnicki andLafkowitz struggled in a 4-6, 0-6 loss.Regardless, the Raiders still won thematch to maintainthcirundefeated recordin this young season.

Scolch Plains-Fanwood's outlook isgrowing more and more positive as Ihc(cam is heeling its wounds. Squires andKopnicki have returned from the side-line, while Viswanalhan was scheduledlo return for the learns road match atUnion Catholic on April 10.

After the rash of injuries which hasseemingly passed, the team can now fo-cus its sights upon challenging for thecounty and sectional championships.

"We feel thai we have a very potentteam that other squads will definitelyhave to think about," commented Lee.

Senior Sara Simbcrg, 1-0. earned thewin in tier first outing on the mound thisseason.

Simbcrg, who pitched u solid game,pave much of the credit to her teammates,in the field.

"Our defense was outstanding. Wescldomly allowed the opposition lo ad-vance past first or second base,"remarkedthe optimistic senior, whnsaidshc firmlybelieves this will be a team lo reckon withthis season.

Oddly enough, the game was remark-ably close until Ihc final inning of playwhen the Lady Haiders drove in 12 runs.The learn hatted aruund in that seventhinning before its first ou:. and ultimatelyIcli Dayton Regional out in the cold.

SPORTSCannons Blast Millburn,6-2; Now 2-1-1 on Season

Delphi Golf Open to AidLeadership Conference

When captains John Chiesa, BrianMcDermott and Andrew Tucker went forthe toss they knew they were in for a goodgame as the Westfield Cannons defeatedMillbum, 6-2.

The Cannons were slow at the openingwhistle and not as quick to the touch asexpected. Millburn rushed to an openinggoat. After the goal, the Cannons realizedthe whistle had blown. There were goodcrosses between Vincent Shen, MichaelKrasnarand Billy Schulu. But Millbummanaged a quick "boom ball," and theCannons pulled a traditional off-sidesplay not recognized or called by the ref-eree as Millbum went ahead 2-0.

Unprepared to come from behind, theCannons were inspired rather than de-feated. Midfield players Chiesa, DanielLynes and Andrew Lessner continued topush the ball forward, meeting each op-portunity with aggressive play. Nice playsto the forward line and a great "give andgo"between Schultz and Krasnor allowedthe Cannons' first goal.

Their defense was anchored by BenMonlalbano in goal and McDermolt, Dan

Kane, Tucker, Ryan Miller and KyleFischer in the back line which blockedthe middle and continued to push forwardat efery opportunity.

Pissing between Tommy Roche,Schultz and Zack Coppa created severalopportunities including a shot on goa!which tied the score at the half.

In the second half, Fisher was in goa)for theCannons. Millbum provided somegreat corner opportunities for Westfield,but the off-sides plays were still a prob-lem for the team. Still. Weslfield brokeloose. From a throw-in, Shen ended upwith a nice touch toward the goal and thescore was now 3-2.

The Cannons were fired up. A high,lofty unstoppable shot from midfield madethe score 4-2 asthe Cannons continued toput on the pressure.

Millburn was totally frustrated by theCannons' defense and only the offenseremained on the field. Two more quickgoals by Westfield concluded the scor-ing, with the Cannons winning 6-2. Themost valuable players were Schultz onoffense and Montalbanoon defense. Theteam's record is now 2-1-1.

Airlines Shoot ThemselvesIn the Foot: Unique Travel

Mrs. Christine Clyburn, owner andManager of Unique Travel andUnique Cruise Center, says that themajor airlines aie "shooting them-selves in the foot" by their recentactions to put a cap on travel agentcommission!!.

"Over 80 per cent uf travelers pre-fer to convenience ul booking (heirairline ticket through their local travelagent," Mrs. Clyburn said.

She said, in the guise of a "costreduction," the airlines are in facttrying to increase pricing to consum-ers because they want travel agenciesto pass these costs on to their corpo-rate and leisure customers, either inthe form of fee-based agreements forcorporate customers or servicecharges to others.

"We'drathersee the airlines pay usappropriately for the work we do,"Mrs. Clyburn said.

"We're going lo continue to pro-vide quality serviee to our customersdespite the chaos the airlines havecreated in the marketplace," she em-phasized. "We dun't want travelerscalling R0O numbers and sitting foran eternity on hold on the telephone,or standing in endless lines at theairport as the airlines might propose.We want them to continue to ha ve theconvenience of gelling their airlinetickets from their local travel agency,"she explained.

"Travelers have historically en-joyed the benefits of a variety ofservices that our agency offers," Mrs,Clyburn added, "including the con-venience of one-stop shopping —being able lo have us lake care ul allof their (ravel needs wilh one easycall, whether that be hotel or carrental reservations, cruise bookingsor handling spec ial meeting ui range-merits. We willconlinuetooffcr trav-elers all of these service wilh thesame quality we have always pro-vided."

The moderator for the event wasMrs. Myrna Wasserman of the Spring-field League of Women Voters.

After brief opening statements,each candidate responded to ques-tions from the panel dealing withissues including curriculum reduc-tion, enrollment increases, technol-ogy, administrative salaries and dresscodes before addressing questionsfrom the audience.

In reply to a question from Amit,Mr. Toriello said the high school pro-vided a "solid education" for thosestudents going onto college and tothose with plans to attend vocationalschools in the area despite the recentelimination of vocational courses atWestfield High School. All studentsbenefit from basic education, he said.

Mrs. Satkin told Mr. Bauer, in re-sponded to his question concerningthe reported % 150,000 spent on archi-tectural drawings in anticipation ofthe recent bond issue being passed,thai the board needed accurate infor-mation , "and professional advice doesnot come cheap." She said contractson the 1986 bond issue were underes-timated, and the board didn't wantthat situation to reoccur.

Mr. Boyd answered a question onwhether he, Mr. Farrell, Mr. Hertelland Mr. Batliloro were running as aslate, by staling they were not a slate,although they "agree on all importantissues."

"You votefor four individuals," headded.

Mrs. Walsh was asked what thetown could expect from the leathers'contract which will be up for renego-tiation next year, since the recentcustodian's contract was trimmed by$300,000.

"We're satisfied with thecustodian's contract," she said."Whatever board is negotiating nextyear will be just as serious aboutreducing costs."

Mr. Toriello said his number onegoal is to improve technology in thedistrict. Anew Director of Technol-ogy will help the district by setting upa plan, organizing, presenting andadvocating for u district, he acknowl-edged, which is behind in this field.

When Mr. Bauer asked Mrs.Hardwick about the possibility ofredisuicting to easehigh enrollments,she replied "the painful fact is thatredistricting will be necessary." Shesaid she hopes the board will con-sidergroupingtheelementary schoolson the north and south sides so thattwo schools could house Kindergar-ten through grade 3, and one schoolcould house grades 4 and 5. Thiswould help with the use of space andmoney carefully, she said, adding shewas concerned how the teacherswould view this opinion.

Mr. Battiloro told Mr. Bauer there"is a definite need to put caps onadministrative salaries." The districtwill have to do more with less, hesaid, noting the salaries of the Super-intendent and the Assistant Superin-tendentof Schools together total over$200,000.

"If we can't find the fat, we'll lookfor the gristle," he said.

Mr. Hertell stressed the importanceof dress codes, pointing out the highschool already has a dress code inplace although it is not enforced. Ifyou expect more from children, hesaid, it adds to their self confidenceand self worth.

When Ivy asked about the racialgraffiti on the high school earlier thisyear. Dr. Mazzarese responded thathe was satisfied with the "quick re-sponse" from school officials to dealwith the situation.Dr.Mazzarese saidthere is a diverse group of students atthe high school, and "the curriculummust help studentslearn how to «uiktogether."

Mr. Battiloro also told the audi-ence of the four'available rooms inthe district that could be convertedback to classrooms. They are cur-rently being used for guidance rooms,extended principal officesand Xeroxrooms, he said.

Mr. Toriello said, contrary to re-ports given at the time of the bondissue, the Lincoln School will nothave to be brought back to slate code.He said the $1 million estimate is forcapital improvements.

Mr. Boyd also spoke about the de-feated bond, saying he didn't like theway it was handled since there wasno other option presented.

"The school board President saidthere was no Plan B," he pointed out.

A consensus must be built in thecommunity if another bond issuecomes up, he said.

Mrs. Hardwick also suggested, inresponse to a position on teacher ben-efits, that a"cafeteria style" plan couldbe offered to the teachers, instead ofcoverage "that is not needed." indi-vidualscouldchoose the benefits thaipertain to them.

When asked about a possible con-flict of inlcrcst since his wife is ateacher in the school system, Dr.Mazzarese replied he would not voteon teacher contracts in much the sameway Board Member, Dr. B. CarolMolnar, abstains from voting on cus-todial contracts since she has a rela-tive on the staff, he said.

Mr. Battiloro would have the sameissue, he said, because his wife isemployed by the district.

Mr. Farrell, questioned on the pos-sible savings where 80 per cent of thebudget goes towards teacher salaries,responded by saying "the teachers

are not the problem. The administra-tion is."

Mr, Farrell said the four top admin-istrators in the high school togetherearn $400,000.

When asked about the importanceof art and music programs in thedistrict, all of the candidates affirmedtheir importance with Mrs. Satkinpointing out that teachers instruct "artfrom a cart" and music in regularclassrooms with no negative effects.

"These courses are vitally impor-tant," said Mr. Hertell.

AH candidates agreed the informa-tion from the board should be easierto obtain, with Dr. Mazzarese sug-gesting televised board meetings,andMr. Battiloro suggesting that boardmeetings should not be scheduled thesame night as Town Council meet-ings.

Mrs. Hardwick said the publicneeds to be reached out to for over-crowding issues. Mr. Farrell and Mr.Hertell both stressed the importanceof using the business and local re-sources available in town.

Mr. Farrell responded toaqueslionconcerning allegations he was finedduring a business transaction in thepast by saying "this is a blatant at-tempt to discredit me," and said hewas "appalled by this personal attackin a non-partisan election."

A memberfromtheaudience askedmoderator Mrs. Wasserman why sheasked Mr. Farreli a personal questionwhen she said at the outset no per-sonal questions would be permitted.Mrs. Wasserman denied it was a per-sonal question.

Mr. Hertell said all candidates arevolunteering their time and are inter-ested "in the good of the education ofthe children."

In closing, Mr. Battiloro stressedhis "back to basics" view. Mr. Toriellostated his belief (he administration is"an easy larget," yet they are "ourmanagers."

Mr. Boyd closed by staying thevital issues ore "taxes and our chil-dren and the creative ways to stream-line school districts across the state."

Mr. Hertell said Westfield has a"Mercedes" type education that is"one of the best in the state," butwhich needs some "fine-tuning."

Mr. Farrell spoke of the need tofocus on the importance of basic edu-cation.- Dr. Mazzarese closed by saying"we must not allow the urgent todrive out the important."

The issues are not simple, 'cau-tioned Mrs. Hardwick, adding theLincoln School is "not an easy an-swer." Mrs. Satkin said she is run-ninga"wholam"andnol a "who theothers are" campaign.

Mrs. Walsh concluded by pointingto her record on the board, adding sheresented that any of the candidateswere involved in any personal at-tacks.

The polls will be open Tuesdayfrom I to 9 p.m.

Free Prostate Cancer TestsSlated at Rah way Hospital

Striking one in 11 males in theirlifetime, prostate cancer is the mostcommon cancer among men and thesecond leading cause of cancer deathin men. About 200,000 American menwere diagnosed with prostate cancerlast year and 38,000 will die from itthis year along. However, prostatecancer can often be cured when de-tected early, and often can be effec-tively treated even during its advancedstages, a Rahway Hospital spokes-man said.

The hospital is sponsoring a freehealth screening to detect prostatecancer on Saturday, April 29, from 10a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Rahway Re-gional Cancer. 892 Trussler Place,adjacent to Rahway Hospital.

The screening is open to men whoare at high risk for having prostatecancer. The criteria for the screeningis as follows:

• Men aged 40 to 50 who have afamily history of prostate cancer orwho are black, are asymptomatic andnot under the care of a physician forany prostate condition and never hada prostate examination.

• Men aged 50 to 70 who areasymptomatic and not under the care

of aphysician for any prostate condi-tion and have not had a prostate ex-amination in the past two years.

The prostate Cancer EducationCouncil, the American Cancer Soci-ety and the American Uroiogical As-sociation recommend that men 50years of age and older receive anannual prostate examination whichincludes a digital rectal examinationand a prostate-specific antigen bloodtest.

The screening will consist of bothexaminations recommended by thesegroups. Prior to the screening, par-ticipants are required to undergo theantigen test, made available at nocharge through a grant from Merck &Co. to those men who have registeredfor the screening.

The actual screening will consistsof the digital rectal examination anda consultation with a Rahway Hospi-tal staff urologist. The antigen lesiresults will be available at the screen-ing.

Registration is required. Men whomeet the criteria and wish to takeadvantage of this service are asked tocall the hospital's Education Depart-ment at 499-6193 between 9 a.m. andnoon to schedule an appointment.

Diversity: The Main ThemeOf Upcoming House Tour

The five residences to be featuredon the 1 Ith annual Tour of NotableHomes, presented by the WestfieldSymphony Friends on Saturday, May6, from 10am.to3p.m., will includethree distinctly different Colonials, aranch and a contemporary, as well asagardertr"NGwhereiSthenouselour'srefreshing.yariely as apparent as whencomparing the charmingShadowlawn Road Colonial homewith the bold Mountainside contem-porary residence only minutes away,"a spokeswoman said.

"Restored by its owners, theShadowlawn Colonial's woodwork— mostly oak, which generouslygraces the floors, doors and windowsthroughout — was once layered withyears worth of dark paint. Today, theluster of the original wood has re-turned; in the study, completely newcasement windows have been builtusing oak taken from elsewhere inthe home," she said.

"Custom-designed, built-in book-shelves have been carefully craftedto match the older oak, and vintageoak floor inlaid with a walnut borderappear on the first level. The livingroom, which contains, among othercharms, a unique Chickering piano,features an outstanding custom man-telpiece. Designed by its owners, itperfectly completes the lush ambi-ance created by the meticulouslymaintained woodwork throughout themain floor of this residence," shesaid.

"Across Route No. 22, and up thehill, the Mary Allen Lane residence

of a Mountainside couple overlooksthe area below and the skyline ofManhattan on a clear day. Designedand built for its owners, who for yearslived themselves in a traditional Co-lonial home in Mountainside, thisresidence is a marriage of beauty andefficiency, thoughtfully utilizingspace built on land which was onceconsidered "unbuildable," yet whichtoday boasts enviable gardens," shesaid.

"Full of light, this residence houseselegant furniture and art in a contem-porary setting. The main floor, be-yond a formidable foyer, is open,with one room flowing effortlesslyinto the next ending on one side witha sleek and massive kitchen accentedwith sophisticated gray tones," sheadded.

"At the other end, a bedroom suiteand office area offer the couple aspacious private living area. Below,offices, guest quarters and recreationareas provide the remaining needs.Thg'presence of an elevator remindsvisitors that the owners have plannedthis home with their retirement inmind, while the carefully tendedgreenhouse and gardens are a testa-ment to their current vitality," sheexplained.

Tickets to the House Tour are onsale at Barons Drugstore, LancasterLtd., Rorden Realty and Designer'sPotpourri, all in Westfteid, and at theCranford Bookstore and BurgdorffRealty in Fanwood. One may alsocall the symphony office at 232-9400for tickets.

Petersen 's EarnsSales, ServiceMastery Title

The Eardly T. Petersen Companysaid that by the end of 1994 they wereone of only six Briggs & StrattonEngine Registered Service Dealersin New Jersey to have achieved thecoveted title of "Master Sales andService Dealer."

"Not only that," states Keith >Petersen, "But, our facility here wasthe first in the entire state to be soregistered. This all may not appear tobe noteworthy until it is understoodthat there are 20,000 registered Briggs& S (ration Service Dealers in thiscountry and there are only 139 win-ning this designation out of this en-tire group! The requirements and thetesting are so stringent that almost allentrants fail."

As one of the Briggs & StrattonMaster Service Technicians, DouglasPetersen — the head of the OutdoorPower Equipment Industry divisionof Eardly Petersen — enjoyed a five-day visit in October to the Briggs &Stratton headquarters and manufac-turing facility in Milwaukee.

"I experienced firsthand," said Mr.Pelersen, "why Briggs & Stratton isthe premium small gasoline enginemanufacturer^ the world. Theircur-rentenginequality, their state-of-the-art manufacturing and warehousingfacilities and their very strong com-mit men I to their dealer network serveto help make our partner ship a posi-tive, winning combination."

The Eardly T. Petersen providesBriggs and Stratton engine sales, ser-vice and parts. Keith Petersen says,"If high standards of service are whatyou demand, and we feel you shouldalways seek optimal levels of prod-uct and service, then, conduct yourbusiness at a facility that has themaster rating."

The Eardly T. Petersen Companyis located at 224 Elmer Street,Westfieid. It is closed Wednesdays.
