P or the second straight year, voters rejected the Hazlet Fire District budget.

A proposed $874,000 tax levy was defeated 120-88 in Saturday’s fire election. The election was held from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the North Centerville Fire Company’s firehouse on Middle Road.

Also two referendum questions were rejected.One, which would have authorized the district to

spend up to $295,000 in 1995 to buy a fire truck for the West Keansburg Fire Company, was defeated by a 12190 margin.

The other, authorizing the district to spend up to $125,000, also in 1995, for an office facility, was defeated 146-60.

The tallies include two absentee votes, according to Charles Klinsky, chairman of the Board of Fire Commissioners. There may be a few more absentee votes that are not counted in the totals yet, he said Monday.

“I ’m disappointed,” said Klinsky. He believes there was a hidden campaign to defeat the levy and the referendum questions, but declined to go into detail.

Anthony D. Kozielski of 5 Roosevelt Ave.. the lone candidate for a three-year term on the five-member Board of Commissioners, received 143 votes. He is a volunteer member of the Hazlet Fire Company. Hazlet has three fire companies which make up the fire district.

Klinsky said 209 people voted, a smaller turnout than last year, when he said about 366 people went to the polls.

The $972,255 budget now goes to the Township Committee, which has 30 days to cut it or let it stand.

Klinsky said the levy would have raised the fire tax less than a penny, from 13.44 cents to 14.16, cents based on the old valuation.

“I don’t understand it,” he said. “Nobody worries about the school budget,” but everybody worries about the fire budget “which protects the town.”

In Aberdeen, voters in both fire districts approved their proposed budgets.

Projects include helping kids, those in need_________ BY MARILYN DUFF__________

M a Bell” taught — and continues to teach — her children well

Just as telephone inventor Alexander Graham Bell reached out so many years ago to help the hearing impaired, an army of retired and active AT&T employees — some800,000 strong in this country and Canada— continue his tradition through the AT&T Pioneers of America.

“Answering the call of those in need” is the Pioneers’ slogan, and in this area, the call is answered by the Frank B. Jewett Chapter.

The Jewett Chapter, which last year celebrated its 50th anniversary, takes its name from the first president of Bell Telephone Laboratories.

O rig inally called the Bell Telephone Laboratories Chapter, it was renamed in honor of Jewett when he retired in 1944. Jewett was president of Bell Labs from 1925 to 1940.

“We’re Ma Bell’s children,” said B ill Lindenberger, a Middletown resident who serves as vice president of the Jewett chapter’s South Life Member Club. The life member club was formed in 1948 for retirees, and later split into north and south clubs.

The Jewett chapter also expanded to serve employees at different locations, forming the Murray Hill, Whippany and Holmdel councils.

Most recently, it added subunits for employees at satellite locations.

Lindenberger discussed the Pioneers’ network of activities during a recent interview at his home, which overlooks Shadow Lake in the River Plaza section of the township.

Lindenberger’s wife, Kay, who is also an officer of the club and was its first female president; Jack Wilson of Little Silver, the current president; and Em ily Rue of Neptune, an office manager at Bell Laboratories in Holmdel and community services chairwoman for the Holmdel Council, also were present.

“We’re all one together,” said Mrs. Lindenberger. referring to the active and retired arms of the chapter. “The only thing is, she (Rue) has to go to work every day.”

Many of the Pioneer projects are continuing, while others offer one-time assistance. They all have one primary thrust, however— helping others.

“A ll we’re trying to do is get to the basics ... of helping your fellow man,” Wilson said.

Jewett Chapter members have a number of projects aimed at helping children, ranging from Hug-a-Bears and a Tournament of Champions to the more exotic Talking Dogs and VASC, a Video-Audio Screening program that they conduct at schools.

Mrs. Lindenberger coordinates the Hug- A-Bears project. Pioneer members make cuddly, simple handmade bears and distribute them to rescue squads and police depart-

Youth sinks to his waist before being pulled out

B Y M A R IL Y N D U F F

S ta f f W r i t e r

HAZLET — In the aftermath of the late January thaw, township police and firefighters made an unusual rescue, pulling an 11-year-old boy from a mountain of mud.

Justin Hughes, who lives in the Meadow Wood Estates section of Holmdel near the Hazlet border, and a friend were climbing a large dirt hill at a building site just over the border in Hazlet when they got stuck in the mud.

“It could have been a real tragedy. It was scary,” said John Beslanovitz, a Hazlet fire fighter and the township fire inspector.

The incident occurred about 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 29.

Heavy rains had made the dirt pile, which Beslanovitz estimated to be between 20 an 25 feet high, unstable.

When firefighters and police arrived at the scene, Justin was stuck near the top of

the hill, submerged to his waist in mud.

Every time he would call for help he would sink deeper, his father said later.

Because of the condition of the hill, rescuers had trouble reaching him and finally placed boards end to end to climb the h ill and pull him to safety.

He was taken to Bayshore Community Hospital, Holmdel, where his body temperature was monitored for hypothermia. He was released after about two hours.

Beslanovitz said the boy’s life could have been in danger. The more he fought to get out of his predicament, the deeper he went, he said.

The property is located off Union Avenue near the Crown Plaza building and just north of the Holmdel Mews condominium complex and the border between the two towns.

The hill was created during excavation for a planned building, police Lt. James Broderick said.

Broderick said once rescuers arrived at 2:12 p.m., it took about eight minutes to pull the boy to safety.

The code enforcement official has looked into the matter, but Broderick said there were no violations.

Contacted last week, Justin said his friend’s feet got stuck in the mud. “I went to get him and I got stuck.”

TO SPEAK OUTCali 1-800-390-NEWS

(6397)

His father, Robert, followed a fire truck to the scene out of curiosity, unaware that his son was even there until he saw him in an ambulance.

His son “was really shaken up,” according to Robert Hughes, who commended the rescuers “for a fine job.”

Some of the them sunk in mud all the way to their knees trying to reach his son, he said.

When Justin got stuck, his friend ran and got help. At the same time, people heard the boys yelling for help and called the police.

Hughes was not sure how long his son was stuck in the mud, but said it may have been as long as an hour.

“People trying to rescue him had a tough time and finally placed boards end- to-end, almost like an ice rescue.” Hughes said.

Besides Beslanovitz, firefighters Tom Horner, M ike Brachen, and Frank Baumen responded. Also responding were Frank Friesendorf and John McGowan of the Hazlet First Aid Squad and police Sgt. Phil Nobile and patrolmen John Fitzsimmons and Robert Dispenza.

BUILDING FOR OTHERS — Middletown resident Bill Lindenberger stands by a recently completed construction project of the AT&T Pioneers Frank B. Jewett Chapter. The group turned a former two-car garage into a recreation center for residents of Pathway House in Western Monmouth County.

ments to give to frightened children during emergency calls.

Last summer, they also sent a supply to midwest flood victims. The entire chapter also had a fund drive for the flood victims, which they dubbed “The Ark.”

The Talking Dogs is part of a project of applying AT&T technology to store- bought toys and turning them into high- tech learning tools. The Talking Dog is used with autistic children, said Mrs. Lindenberger, to encourage them to speak.

The Pioneers also get involved in construction. They recently completed work on a major project in western Monmouth County, transforming a two-car garage into a recreation center for residents of Pathway House, an adjacent residential home for AIDS victims run by Marian Homes Inc., Philadelphia.

“They did a fabulous job,” said Jani Sheppard of Marian Homes. The work took about five months and was completed the end of January.

This was the second major project in recent years and cost approximately $15,000, not counting the Pioneers’ volunteer manpower. Before that, the Pioneers spent about two years restoring the second floor of the Kateri Environmental Center in the Wickatunk section of Marlboro. That project ran about $50,000.

“We won’t just give money and walk away,” said Wilson, president of the South Life Member Club. “We have to be involved in how the money is used.”

Wilson said the group has become more involved in construction projects in recent years.

Last year, life members and active Pioneers spent approximately 1,600 hours building 17 wheelchair ramps for people with varied disabilities, including four children and eight elderly people. Nine of

the ramps are in Bayshore area towns.And they were greatly appreciated.

One appreciative family whose son needed a ramp to get in and out of the house wrote:

I am glad that there are people as kind and generous as you. Thank you fo r taking the time and fo r having the heart.

Wilson said county social-service agencies w ill build ramps for low-income people. The Pioneers reach out to people who don’t qualify for county aid, but are still in need.

Wilson said the ramp materials typically run about $1,000, and if you were to add in the volunteer labor, a typical ramp would run about $4,000.

The Pioneers also help with a soup kitchen in Freehold, they record books for the blind and do registrations for the Central Jersey Blood Bank and glaucoma screenings, among many activities.

But it’s not all work.They also have social activities and

fund-raisers. The chapter raises an average of $60,000 a year, Mr. Lindenberger said— not through donations, but through sales of gift and other items to AT&T employees.

The Holmdel facility has some 7,000 employees, who buy everything from Valentine’s Day flowers to compact discs from vendors selling for the Pioneers.

Last year, Rue, who, until a recent rule change was a “future Pioneer,” volunteered 600 hours, serving as chairwoman of the Holmdel facility’s annual Doll and Toy Campaign. .

They raise about $20,000 to $30,000 each year just through employee donations, Rue said. The money, also raised through year-round candy sales to employees, is used to buy dolls.

The dolls are dressed by employees and distributed through about 33 agencies to children.


t o a n s w e r c a l l

VOLUNTEER NETWORK — AT&T Telephone Pioneers Emily Rue, who works at Bell Laboratories, Holmdel, and Jack Wilson, president of the South Life Member Club for retirees, explain some of their chapter’s community service projects.


Last year, the campaign distributed 8,700 dolls.

“It makes me feel really good,” said Rue, who has been volunteering for nine years and says one thing just leads to another.

From the organization’s 1910 founding until 1980, Pioneers had to qualify for membership by putting in 21 years of company service. In 1980, the requirement was lowered to 15 years, and last year, eliminated completely.

“I would say we’re unique,” said Mrs. Lindenberger, when asked if the Pioneers have any counterparts.

“We do a potpourri of community service,” added Wilson, some of which are unique, like the Talking Dog, because some of the members are so highly skilled.

“We’re always looking for things to

do,” Wilson said.They compete against other chapters

for a “People Who Care” award. The Jewett Chapter won the award for its Kateri project and is hoping to win again for its Pathway House project.

The best part is “getting together with people, fellowship, and associating with other retirees,” said Mr. Lindenberger, who retired 10 years ago.

After all, he said, “You don’t want to just be a couch potato when you retire.”

Since the breakup of AT&T in 1983, the company has changed, especially as it has become more competitive.

But for the Lindenbergers and Wilson and the other non-re tired Pioneers like Rue, “We’re like a big family,” Wilson said.

A family named Bell, that is.

M IDDLETOW N — Congressman Frank Pallone w ill help residents opposed to the county’s Bayshore Ferry project make their voices heard at the federal level.

The state has granted permits for the proposed ferry from the Bayshore to New York City, but the Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Coast Guard are still considering the project.

At least 150 residents turned out for a town meeting with Pallone last Thursday evening at the Independence Hall firehouse, Route 36, in Belford. The meeting was scheduled at the request of the Belford Citizens Association.

For the first time, leaders of the Belford group, who live near the planned ferry terminal, made their opposition to the county’s planned passenger ferry system clear, wearing bright yellow T-shirts with a “No Ferry” logo.

Representatives of the Belford Seafood Cooperative and the local branch of the American Littoral Society also announced their opposition to the project at the meeting.

The complex would be located on a 23-acre site on the east bank of Comptons Creek in what’s known as Belford Harbor.

The county owns 268 acres east of the creek, purchased with funding from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. The site includes the former Middletown landfill, which is being capped.

The county hopes to provide ferry service to about 1,200 customers a day, not just to New York, but also to Jersey City and Staten Island.

Residents are concerned about traffic, flooding, air pollution and the overall impact such a large project could have on their neighborhood.

Some people also worry the project w ill force the fishermen out, although the county thinks the various improvements w ill benefit the fishermen.

Rich Isaksen, speaking on behalf of the Belford Seafood Cooperative, which uses the harbor for its fishing fleet, also said he opposes the project. He predicted problems with the large passenger ferry and fishing boats sharing the same channel.

“The Bayshore is valuable the way it is now. Don’t destroy it,” Isaksen said.

Concern about the ferry project erupted this fall after dump trucks carrying dirt to cap the landfill began rolling down local Belford roads. Opposition has been snowballing ever since.

“I don’t see any reason why we couldn’t ask the corps to hold a public hearing on the ferry project,” Pallone told the

crowd. He added that the Coast Guard has concerns about the safety of the fishing vessels.

Kevin Ganson, a senior county planner, later said the county has all of its state Department of Environmental Protection and Energy permits in place.

As a condition of those permits, however, the county has to mitigate, or create, 12.8 acres of new wetlands to make up for 6.4 acres it will destroy for the ferry project. It has not submitted it wetlands mitigation plan yet. Once it does, the Army Corps of Engineers w ill issue a public notice, after which people will have 30 days to respond.

Pat Cusick, a Main Street resident and spokeswoman for the Belford Association, expressed concerns about possible flooding that could be caused by raising part of Main Street and Broadway to accommodate ferry traffic and connect the area with Port Monmouth Road via a new bridge over Comptons Creek at Church Street (see map).

Residents and township and county officials had hoped that a new road could be built east of Mairi Street to connect Route 36 with the fern project and adjacent landfill and keep traffic off local roads.

However, the DEPE rejected the proposed access road because it would encroach on approximately 4.5 acres of what are considered pristine and valuable wetlands. Te get approval, the county would have to demonstrate that no alternative access exists, which it has not been able to do.

One woman in the audience questioned why “it’s ail right to destroy a neighborhood but not wetlands.”

Ganson said he and others had gone to Trenton to plead the case for the Route 36 access, but had been “stonewalled.”

Ganson said a traffic study documented that the present road system is at “the lowest possible level of service”— or could handle much more traffic than currently exists — and that the ferry1 service would not affect it at all.

But members of the audience disagreed, citing problems due to adverse weather this winter and the elimination of courtesy school busing, requiring students to walk along Main Street to get to school.

Andy Willner, the baykeeper for the American Littoral Society, an environmental organization headquartered on Sandy Hook, said, “It’s not an alternative route to the ferry we should be concerned with,” but rather an alternative location for the ferry terminal or whether there is even a need for it.

“It ’s just the wrong place,” said Willner, adding that residents have to make those feelings known to the federal government, which is “the'ultimate arbiter,” and will make the final decision.

No one at the meeting spoke in favor of the ferry project.

There also was criticism of an approximately $10 million road and bridge project on the west side of Comptons Creek. The county has all of the necessary permits in place for that project, Ganson said. It will include reconstruction of Port Monmouth Road and new bridges over Comptons and Pews creeks (see map).

“We don’t need this overshadowing development,” said Pam Carlson of Avenue A, in the Port Monmouth section. She expressed concern about increased flooding in her neighborhood from the dredging of Pews Creek and expansion of the county-owned Monmouth Cove Marina on the east bank.

She said the Pews Creek bridge, which has been out since 1973, is being rebuilt south of the marina to accommodate larger boat traffic.

Suits challenge Revlon’s planBY CANDY TRUNZO

S taff W rite rHOLMDEL — The changes that

Revlon wants to make to its Charles of the Ritz factory on Route 35 are more than just cosmetic. Township residents and officials intend to face off with the corporation to put a lid on its shopping center plan.

On March 5 the Township Committee and Holmdel Residents for Reasonable Development Inc. plan to file a joint brief with Judge Raymond A. Hayser of the Monmouth County Superior Court to support their claim that the Zoning Board of Adjustment is acting improperly in granting Revlon a use variance to build a four- store shopping mall.

On March 9 the zoning board is scheduled to take public comment on the issue, for the second time. The board has yet to decide whether to give Revlon final site plan approval, but the variance has been granted.

Sarah Biser, attorney for the citizens’ group suing both Revlon and the zoning

board, contends that the board’s decision to grant the New York-based cosmetics manufacturer a use variance was “arbitrary, capricious and unreasonable.”

Anthony Bruno, the zoning board’s attorney, maintains that the board acted within its rights to grant the use variance.

In December 1992, the board unanimously adopted a resolution allowing Revlon to change the use of its former manufacturing plant on Route 35 between Centerville Road and Union Avenue to a four-store shopping center. The variance was conditioned on approval of the site plan.

The Revlon property is located in a commercial zone that requires at least six stores in a shopping center. It was the contention of then-Mayor Ernest Cote that the zoning board exceeded its authority and that Revlon, by going for the variance, managed to sidestep the township’s more developmentally conservative Planning Board.

Ironically, Bruno said, Revlon might have been better off leaving well enough alone and seeking planning board ap-

proval for a six-store shopping center.According to the lawsuit, the zoning

board knew, or should have known, that the committee had asked the planning board to re-examine the township Master Plan. The comprehensive Master Plan review was to include appropriate land uses along the Route 35 corridor.

The committee and the residents group contend that granting the use variance, without considering the efforts of the committee or planning board to deal with the development pressures was “inappropriate and contrary to the best interest of the community.” ■

According to Bruno, the zoning board was put into a box by the zoning ordinance, which was written to discourage shopping centers with mom-and-pop type stores.

Revlon assured the board that its four stores would be quality retail establishments that would be interrelated, he said, adding that Revlon gave an example of a center that might serve the needs of a homeowner.

The lawsuits by the committee and the citizens group led by Biser were originally filed separately last October.

“We wanted to make sure our interests were protected,” Biser said. “We did not want to depend on Township Committee politics when our property values and the quality of our lives were at stake.”

But, in a recent wrinkle, Judge Hayser combined the two lawsuits against the cosmetics firm and the zoning board. That may work in favor of both plaintiffs, Biser said. Both lawsuits were filed after the 45- day deadline to submit an appeal but, according to Biser, the court can relax that deadline if there is significant public interest.

The public’s interest has been considerable. At a zoning board meeting held on Wednesday, Feb. 9, just after a major snowstorm, some 60 people showed up to oppose the project.

“I was thrilled with the turnout,” Biser said.

The residents’ main objection is traffic. The proposed shopping center would be the third such center in a 1 1/2-mile stretch of Route 35.

At 364,000 square feet, the Revlon site would be about 20 percent larger than the Holmdel Towne Center and 40 percent larger than the Caldor shopping center just across Route 35.

Traffic from the proposed shopping center, residents say, would add considerable congestion to Route 35, Centerville Road and other neighboring streets.

According to Township Engineer Edward Broberg, such a shopping center could generate about 1,500 additional cars per hour on the road during peak afternoon and evening shopping hours and more than 2,000 cars per hour on Saturdays.

At the February meeting, Holmdel resident Peter Gaeta of Bow Ridge Terrace expressed his concern that Route 35 would end up looking like Route 18 in East Brunswick or Route 22 in Paramus. Most residents agree that they have all the shopping centers they need.

Another issue that disturbs residents — and the zoning board — is the fact that Revlon won’t divulge the names of possible tenants.

“They have not and will not give us the names of prospective tenants,” Bruno said

Revlon’s lawyer, Hersh Koslov of Cherry Hill, could not be reached for comment.

Rumors are rampant, however, that one of the proposed stores, slated to be 100,000 square feet, might be a Home Depot or Wal-Mart.

Under the terms of the zoning board resolution, Revlon is precluded from leasing space to any membership clubs, wholesale outlets or discount stores. But a Home Depot, for instance, would probably be permissible, Biser said.

She and others are concerned about homes on Redberry Road, for example, that could have a view of a sea of tractor- trailers delivering merchandise.

Our Goal is Less GarbageBecause garbage management is not getting any cheaper, we’ve

been striving to make less garbage by setting up recycling and

composting programs. These cost money too, but in the long run

sorting and reusing our resources is less expensive and far more

responsible than landfilling them as garbage.

And besides, conserving our natural resources is the right thing to do.

Residents and businesses have already been helping by

participating in recycling programs. But there’s lots more to do. New

priorities for us all should be to prevent and reduce waste first, reuse

what we can even before recycling, and recycle as much as possible.

In the next few months Monmouth County will be presenting a series

of articles on how the County is addressing the garbage issue

and how residents and businesses can (and should) help.

^ To find out about recycling and waste prevention

J in Monmouth County today,

call the Residing Hotline at (908) 577-8400.

Garbage Is Getting Complicated. We Can’t Just Dump It Anymore,

More Complex Means More ExpensiveOur County Dump as we knew it is a thing of the past. Now we have

regulated landfills with leachate collection and treatment systems,

methane gas recovery, and environmental impact reports

to prepare and pay for. We don’t just have garbage collection.

We have waste management systems that are regulated by state and

local government agencies.

A program of the Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders.

So, although we still throw our garbage in the same old

garbage can, there’s a whole new world of garbage

management for the County to contend with. We’re

telling you about this, because as garbage has become

more complex to manage, it has also become

more expensive to pay for

and will continue to be

in the future.

BY CANDY TRUNZO


ob Ferry is a man for all seasons — but it’s the Christmas season he loves best.

That’s when the fifth-generation Keyport resident gets to play the Ghost of Christmas Present in the musical Scrooge, his favorite role of the dozens he’s played in community theaters in Lincroft and Spring Lake.

“I think Dickens must have written the character for me,” said the stocky Ferry. “He is so full of life.”

It wasn’t as though Ferry was angling for an acting career when he tried out for his first role in the musical Promises, Promises at the Spring Lake Community Theater more than a decade ago.

He had never auditioned for a high school play. He had never been interested in acting lessons. And he had never even been to a Broadway production.

“I just wasn’t a theater person,” shrugged Ferry, 36.

But then several of his friends at Database America in Montvale, where he is now vice president of operations, cajoled him into attending a Spring Lake production.

Before long, Ferry was frequenting shows and cast parties. When he learned the company needed male bodies for its next production, the die was cast — and so was Ferry, in five different parts in Promises, Promises.

Since then, Ferry has been in a dozen shows including Mr. Roberts, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Scrooge — four times.

The most recent Premier Theatre Company production of Scrooge, held at Lincroft’s Henderson Theatre last December, was probably the highlight of Ferry’s acting career so far.

For one thing, he was teamed with one of his closest friends and colleagues, Michael Kroll of Bloomfield, who played in the title role.

Then there was the part itself, which the actor believes is the embodiment of Christmas.

It was no wonder Ferry felt 10 feet tall. “It’s amazing what stilts can do,” he joked.

What was most exciting for Ferry was to have his wife, Jill, bring his daughters, Megan, 8, and Molly, 4, to see him perform for the first time.

“They loved it,” he beamed.Even though acting is a sideline, it

requires a great deal of time and preparation.

Ferry estimates that it takes, on average, from two to three months to prepare for a play, including costume fittings, learning his lines and rehearsals.

Ferry is not paid for his theater work. His compensation, he insists, is the pleasure it gives him and, hopefully, the pleasure it gives those who come to see the productions.

“I like the fact that the community benefits and that we do our share to perpetuate the arts in the area,” he said.

Ferry said it can cost a hefty $200 for a couple to go to New York, park their car, have dinner and see a show. If they go to a community theater production, they might spend a fourth of that.

Recently, Ferry was honored with an invitation to perform in a Premier musical review, Broadway Magic, in April. But he

a c t in g s h i s g a m e

Iii the Spotlight

had to decline. “My dance card is full,” he said.

Indeed it is. Ferry does not do anything half-heartedly. And he does a lot.

He is a Keyport firefighter and has been a member of the department since he was 18. In 1987, he was elected fire chief, the youngest in Keyport’s history.

But it was his responsibilities on the Keyport Board of Education that prevented him from taking part in the April show.

Ferry, who is at the beginning of his third term, is vice president of the board as well as chairman of the Financq Committee.

He is up to his eyeballs trying to put together a budget without any information from the state, in addition to working on contract negotiations. Keyport’s teachers have been without a contract since last June.

With one daughter in second grade and the other ready to enter kindergarten in the fall, Ferry wants to do all he can to make the school system viable. “The kids are our future,” he said.

He bemoans the fact that the senior class has gone from 175 students when he graduated in 1975, to 100 today. He is intent on trying to win back the Union Beach students who have chosen to attend Red Bank Regional in recent years.

Ferry has been an advocate of the Bayshore Consortium, an effort on the part of local school districts to find common ground and share costs.

He also has been instrumental in establishing an educational foundation to bring in corporate contributions and minimize the burden on the taxpayer.

Ferry, who is one of the foundation’s directors, hopes to improve the science labs as its first project.

But, besides his family, it is his work in the theater that puts a twinkle in his eye.

“The whole experience, top to bottom, has been unbelievable,” he explained. “Whatever else in going on in my life, acting is a sabbatical from reality.”

MERRY FERRY — Last December, Bob Ferry, as the Ghost of Christmas Present, teamed up w ith close friend, Michael Kroll of Bloomfield, who played the title role in the Lincroft production of Scrooge. Ferry credits Kroll, also a colleague at Database America in Montvale, for bringing him to see his first show. After that, Ferry was bitten by the acting humbug.

CLASS ACT — Bob Ferry’s Christmas spirit is matched only by his community spirit. Not only does he volunteer his acting talents, he also is a volunteer fireman — and has been one since age 18 — and serves on the Keyport Board of Education and the new educational foundation.

C o m m u te rs ’

illn e s s sets inIt’s when you wake up before dawn

and realize that you aren’t on a beach in Hawaii.

It’s when you cut yourself shaving (your face or legs, or armpits, for that matter.) You tiptoe like a shadow, down the stairs ... and tread on the dog. The finale is when you wake the whole family as you stumble bleary-eyed into the garage and knock over the golf clubs, the kid’s bikes, stepladders and garden tools.

It ’s the arrival of the “Commuter Februarys.”

Glancing anxiously at the dashboard digital clock, which grins at you as the minutes drain away while you race to the railway station, you become convinced that some higher being is deliberately turning the traffic lights against you. It goes without saying that you miss the train, your Path connection, a peaceful breakfast and a chance to be ahead of the game for a change. You arrive at work tired and arrive home half-dead.

All around, the gray permeates: people, cars, buildings, weather; and you ponder in your train window seat as the sun rises lethargically over Raritan Bay, ‘What is at the root of this tri-state dose of depression?’

It is often speculated that the “Commuter Februarys” — or Febriocom- munumbatosis, as it is known in the medical world — is a recent phenomenon. In fact, it was discovered as recent ago as last Tuesday, when a Wall executive was found coloring a monthly season ticket with highlighting pens in an effort to create some private, artistic ambiance.

He must have forgotten to pack the mandatory keep-your-mind-alive head vibrator, which the adjacent passenger is also expected to enjoy listening to.

So what can the common or garden average run-of-the-mill bored commuter do to combat this cruel annual malaise? Go to sleep? Get a new job? After all, the year-end pay rise and bonus are already long forgotten.

Perhaps he or she should take part in train games. One recently noticed is called Newark Chicken. This is where everyone tries to be the last person in the carriage to get up and put on his or her scarf and coat as the train approaches Newark station.

Extra kudos is awarded if the passenger next to you is fooled into thinking that you are not getting off the train after all, and so gets the added pleasure of having to get up into an already crowded aisle to let you pass. This can lead to such deviousness as pretend snoring, the permanently spread-out newspaper and the shifting-in-my-seat-to-make-my self- more-comfortable syndrome.

Bon voyage, alumni.

Editor’s note: The Independent this week introduces a weekly commuting column by David J. Haynes, who rides the rails most days from the Bayshore to New York City. Future “Road Warr ior” columns wil l also include advisories about road construction and changes in mass transit schedules.

Local Realtor's commitment to MDA is 'arresting'

BY jODI SWAIN

S ta f f W r i t e r

E very year, Natalie Bindler helps people with neuromuscular diseases by arresting Monmouth ty residents at one of her ERA

Advantage Realty offices.As the regional ERA/MDA (Muscular

Dystrophy Association) coordinator for the past five years, the Morganville resident has been organizing fund-raising events, such as the lockups, for MDA’s Mid-Jersey Chapter.

The chapter, located in West Long Branch, serves Monmouth and Ocean counties.

Bail posted by friends, family members and business associates of the ja ilbirds raised $4,700 in Bindler’s most recent fund-raising endeavor.

“I help because I think it’s a worthy cause,” said Bindler, whose grandchildren, Ryan, 5, and Ashley, 7, inspire her efforts. “It’s just a soft spot. I feel fortunate because God has given us good health, and I’m giving something back.”

Bindler’s good works prompted the MDA chapter to name her one of its 1993 Women of the Year at a ceremony held Jan. 27 in Van’s Freehold Inn. Bindler’s 1992 lockup initiated the MDA involvement of co-recipient, Anna Bettencourt-Dobin of Shrewsbury, founder and president of Foremost Mortgage Brokerage Inc. .

“Not that I ’m humble,” Bindler said, “but to honor me like that was one of the most exciting things in my whole life.”

Recalling the event, her thoughts quickly turned to the $8,000 raised during a raffle of items donated by local

businesses at the ceremony. The amount w ill enable MDA to buy an electric wheelchair.

“Without a wheelchair, you can’t get around,” she said. “I don’t want to settle for anything less, because a wheelchair is your legs.”

The annual Day at the Races, which Bindler started in 1989 at the Freehold Raceway, usually raises $2,000-$3,000 for MDA through ticket sales and activities such as raffles. Every three months, she also collaborates with chapter director Jennifer Kinnison about events such as BAD (Bowling Against Dystrophy), a bowl-a-thon involving teams from her five ERA offices, and a garage sale outside of one of the offices.

The business woman said she always enjoys getting together with her colleagues and raising money. Working toward the same goal keeps a company close, said Bindler, whose offices hold more than 100 employees.

She travels among her offices in Manalapan, Old Bridge, Freehold, Keyport and Middletown. Following the example of the late basketball coach Jim Valvano, Bindler motivates, manages and teaches people and observes.

The company ranks among the top 20 of more than 2,000 ERA franchises in the United States, based on gross profits and company listings. In 1980, she and her partner, Cathy Cleveland, established their first realty office in Manalapan following careers as Realtors for Century 21.

“My goal in life was to treat people the way I would have liked to be treated,” Bindler said, adding that she has

loved real estate, people and selling since entering the field in 1968. “I felt (that) by owning my own business, I could achieve that.”

Don Kane, ERA Northeast vice president, acknowledged the dedication of real estate brokers like Bindler. She is the only officer on the board of directors who calls regularly to make sure she continues to chair MDA’s committee for ERA, he said.

Bindler’s association with MDA began some seven-and-a-half years ago, shortly after she saw a young poster girl named Ashley on Jerry Lewis’ Labor Day telethon in Las Vegas, Nev.

“Something inside of me clicked when they brought her out on stage,” she said, noting that the g irl shares her granddaughter’s name. “I thought if I could do something to help, it would be wonderful.”

The late Ed Bilinkas, former owner of ERA Bilinkas in Randolph and New Jersey spokesman for ERA, encouraged Bindler to work with MDA because her reaction to Ashley reminded him of his own drive on behalf of a poster boy, explained Judy Reilly, spokeswoman for ERA ServiCenter in Shawnee Mission, Kan.

According to Reilly, Bilinkas’ commitment to fighting against neuromuscular disease began ERA’s affiliation with MDA in 1977. ERA has since raised $15 million for the organization.

Bindler, a former Freehold resident, said her husband, Larry, retired owner of Tops N Town cleaners, shoe repair, tuxedo rentals and tailoring in Manalapan, Shrewsbury and Tinton Falls, has given her the support necessary for success. She also credits her grandchildren and children, Robin of Freehold, Lori of Colts Neck and Michael of Montgomery Center, Vt.

According to Kinnison, the chapter annually selects one or more friends of MDA for the award. Dr. Judith Topilow, a pediatrician from Wayside, and Dr. Christos Anayiotos, a neurologist from Rumson, received the award last year.

MDA, a national health organization leading a fight against some 40 neuromuscular diseases, depends on continual support to provide research programs and comprehensive patient and community support.

“If I could keep on doing this and make someone happy with a wheelchair, I would do this forever,” said Bindler. “I hope to help someone in my own littleway.”

Phillips says he w ill fight for location

BY LAUREN JAEGER

Staff WriterKEYPORT — X-tasy, a proposed

adult bookstore, can make the borough its home, a judge ruled earlier this month — but only in one small corner of town.

However, a rehearing is tentatively scheduled for March 21 in Trenton, before Judge Garrett Brown of the U.S. District Court.

On Feb. 2, Brown upheld the borough’s rule that the store would have to be located at least 300 feet away from any residence.

Taking this into account, the only place for the store would be on a small, jemote site on Madison Street, near the JCP&L building and Semcor Equipment.

George Phillips, who wants to open the bookstore in a vacant building he rents at 65 Route 36, is not at all pleased with the decision. Phillips believes that Keyport’s zoning laws violate his constitutional right to free speech.

He said he does not own the small plot of land where the judge said his business could located, and calls it “unbuildable” since it has steep slopes and could be defined as a ravine.

Phillips wants to open the adult book store next to the go-go bar, Fantasies, which is expected to reopen next month.

The saga began in March 1992, when Phillips and his partner, Philip Vitale, signed a five-year lease with Joseph Palazzolo of Brooklyn for the building.

After the lease was signed, Phillips, of Interlaken, and his partner, Vitale, of Ocean Township, were issued zoning and electrical permits for the bookstore.

A public outcry soon followed, because many people found it inappropriate for an X-rated business to be located close to homes and schools.

Residents who lived near the site appealed the code officer’s decision and the Zoning Board overturned it in April 1992 on a technicality.

On the permit, it read that the property was block 103, lot 59. In actuality, the property is block 103, lot 61.

The store is zoned “highway commercial.” An adult bookstore is permitted only in the “light industrial” zone, according to Vic Rhodes, Keyport’s zoning and code enforcement officer.

On July 28, 1992, a land-use ordinance amendment was approved in Keyport, banning adult bookstores within 500 feet of religious houses of worship, residences, schools, libraries and playgrounds.

According to Phillips’ professional planner, George VanSant of Lanoka Harbor, this would completely rule out any adult-eniertainment use in the borough.

On Nov. 9, 1993, the land-use ordinance was amended to 300 feet.

The ordinance was amended after the

court hearing was closed Sept. 17.The borough submitted the amendment

to the judge, who ruled Feb. 2 that the 300-foot ordinance was adequate.

Brian Mullen, the attorney who represented Keyport in this case, could not be reached for comment last week.

Phillips’ lawyer, Lewis Robertson of Evans, Osborne and Kreizmen, Little Silver, said that he has asked the court to render a further decision. He said they will continue to fight for the right to be located in the building Phillips rents.

Phillips said he has poured close to

$80,000 in rent, lawyer’s fees and engineering fees into the battle.

Mayor John Merla said Phillips’ request for a rehearing was “unfortunate.”

“This is good money being spent on a bad issue,” Merla said. “I think this type of business is not wanted in town, and the townspeople made this very clear.”

Richard Maser, the borough engineer, said that borough officials tried their best to be fair to Phillips.

“Originally, we did the 500-foot zoning,” Maser said. “We, in all fairness to him, tried to get as many properties in as

possible. It was changed to 300 feet.”But Phillips said the borough has been

unfair.“Keyport has 2,293 property lots.

When you give me two lots, it’s just one- tenth of one percent of Keyport,” he said.

“After you delve into the details of other adult cases where the proprietors were challenged, you become adept to what happens in court. You can come up with a general idea as to what is constitutional and what isn’t,” Phillips said, adding that he will take the case to appellate court if he has to.

DAM(AGE) SITE — Monmouth County, Freehold Borough and Freehold Township have agreed to share the cost of repairing the dam underneath the bridge on Pond Road in Freehold Township at the head of Lake Topanemus.

FREEHOLD — The way has been paved for Monmouth County to take over future operations of the Lake Topanemus recreational facility in the near future.

“The commission is ready to turn over the lake and property to the county as soon as they’re willing to take it,” according to Roger Kane, chairman of the Lake Topanemus Commission.

The facility, popularly known as “the pond,” is located in Freehold Township, but is owned by Freehold Borough.

The county, borough and township recently reached an agreement on how they would split the costs of repairing the bridge on Pond Road at the head of the lake and the dam underneath the bridge.

The dam was declared unsafe and a hazard by the Army Corps of Engineers in the 1970s. In 1990, the state Department of Environmental Protection and Energy ordered the county, township and borough to conduct the necessary engineering studies and make the appropriate repairs.

However, ownership of the dam has never been determined.

The township owns Pond Road, the borough owns the lake and recreational property and the county is responsible for all bridges.

But, so far, nobody has admitted ownership of the dam.

The DEPE even threatened to drain the lake and impose heavy penalties unless the three jurisdictions came up with a plan to address the problem of the dam.

In 1992, the three agreed to equally share in the cost of a dam study and recommendation for necessary repairs.

The cost of the study, conducted by A.G. Lichtenstein & Associates, Fairlawn, was $38,000. -

The estimated cost of repairing the bridge and dam is $432,000. The county has agreed to pick up 62 percent, or

$267,000 of that cost, while the borough and township would each pay 19 percent, or about $80,000.

For years, borough and township officials have been imploring the county to take over operation of the facility, but the dam problem has thwarted any such takeover.

“That has always been the big stumbling block,” said Kane. “Nobody knew who owned the dam. The state threatened to drain the lake unless an agreement for the repairs could be worked out. We don’t know whether that was an idle threat or whether they would have actually drained the lake.”

During the last five years, through grants and with the help of volunteers, the commission has managed the upgrade the quality of water in the lake and improve the landscape around it.

“We have spent more than $200,000 over the last five years improving the lake,’ said Kane. “This has included harvesting the vegetation at the bottom of the lake three different years, the planting of trees and shrubbery and the installation of birdhouses.”

Nature trails have also been built and facilities built in the lake and its perimeter to attract wood ducks, which had not visited the lake in many years, Kane said.

“The ultimate answer for the future of the lake and park is for the county to take over,” said Kane. “Members of the commission have been the caretakers. Hopefully, we have spent the money wisely for a start in the right direction. The county has the resources and the personnel to make the facility even bigger and better.

“There is tremendous potential for the pond’s future and the county has a great parks system to make it everything it can be,” said Kane. “The county could even buy some surrounding property to make the facility even bigger. I think the commission has done everything it can and it is time for the county to take over.”

C ollege-bound students and their parents can do a lot to make the selection and entrance process

easier.“It’s much more involved than just fill

ing out applications, and there are some things you can do each month of the school year to ease the process,” said Ronnie Oppenheim, director of Ronnie Oppenheim Educational Enterprises, which has offices in Manalapan and Holmdel. “Considering the fact that your college years may be among the most important in your life, some serious time should be devoted to the process.”

For example, February is a good time for seniors to be looking for scholarship money. It’s a thankless job, but one that can be fruitful, according to Oppenheim.

“Go to the library and look through Financial Aids fo r Higher Education, ” she said. “Get grant and scholarship information from your guidance counselor, from religious groups and private companies, and take advantage of a computer program the Freehold Regional District has called the Guidance Information Service. That (service) allows students to do scholarship searches as well as gamer information about colleges and universities in general.”

As juniors enter the second half of the school year, they also should be taking steps to improve their college admission chances, the Holmdel resident said.

“Consider taking college courses at Brookdale Community College at night or over the summer and get on the fast track,” she said. “And sophomores should be picking courses for their junior year that indicate they are willing to challenge themselves.”

For a flat fee, Oppenheim will work with high school juniors or seniors and take them through the whole process. Her clients come from all parts of the state and portions of New York, and are on all levels of the academic scale.

“I use a very hands-on approach,” she said. “I become each student’s No. 1 cheerleader and support system. My goal is to get to know my students well and make them happy by finding the appropriate school that matches their interests, their personalities and their abilities.”

Oppenheim, a former elementary school teacher who has a master’s degree in education, has been privately counseling students on college placement since 1978. She served a two-year term as president of the Parent Teacher Student Association of Holmdel High School, where she was a volunteer for several years and launched a creative arts program designed to bring better understanding of theater, dance and fine arts to students.

“There are always things you can do to improve your chances of getting into a school,” she said. “Of course, good grades, high-level courses and test scores are always the most important, but schools like to see more. Community service, extracurricular activities, work experiences, hobbies — all make you a more qualified candidate for admissions.”

To help them develop outside interests, Oppenheim takes her students to art museums, concerts, cultural events, Wall Street and other places. She said that by their sophomore year, students should be taking advantage of what’s around them and getting involved in different things.

“One of these experiences might spark an interest and lead to serious involve-


g e t s s t u d e n t s s e t f o r c o l le g e w o r l d

Ronnie Oppenheim

ment,” she said. “Besides helping you to become a more interesting person, you want to enhance your profile by developing a strategy that will highlight your accomplishments and get your application the attention it deserves.”

Oppenheim designed a workbook for her clients that covers all areas of college admissions, including obtaining recommendations, criteria to be considered when applying to a school, a checklist when making a college visit, writing essays, college interviews and more.

Reach, target and safety schools are the categories Oppenheim uses to describe her clients’ choices, which she said should be limited to about six. Pinpointing which schools to apply to is a major part of her service.

“Kids most often want to know where they can get in and parents ask what is affordable,” she said. “I take everyone’s concerns seriously. This is a group effort.”

Once Oppenheim analyzes a student’s overall accomplishments, a list is compiled. Generally, she recommends that applications are sent to two reach schools, two target schools and one safety school.

“The main considerations should always be academics and the major areas of study the school offers,” she said. “Then move on to basic criteria. Among these are the size of the school, the region of the countiy the student is interested in living in for the next four years, the location of the college — whether it is near a big city, small town or rural community — and, of course, the tuition and living expenses.”

Other important considerations are class size, health-care facilities, campus security, accessibility to faculty members and advisory staff, and course offerings,

February also is the month juniors should be preparing for the Scholastic Assessment Tests (SAT), according to Oppenheim. She said that if private tutors or preparatory classes are not financially feasible, students should form a study group.

“I’ve found any type of preparation for the SAT can improve scores,” said Oppenheim, who also encourages her clients to take achievement tests in at least two subjects.

Oppenheim, whose two children are students at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., has visited more than 100 schools in every region of the country over the last four years.

“I love to £0 to colleges,” she said. “It’s like going shopping.”

Oppenheim said many students choose a school site without having seen it yet.

“If it’s impossible to visit the school

you wish to attend, then go visit some local campuses,” she said. “Rutgers University (New Brunswick) gives a wonderful tour. You can get a feel for what a big school is like. If you’re more interested in a small school, go to a school like Drew University (Madison). See what one has that the other doesn’t. This gives you a means of comparison, makes you a more informed applicant and brings the whole concept of college into a better focus.”

The junior year is the time to look over schools, according to Oppenheim.

“Make an appointment for a tour and go when the school is in session,” she said. “At the information session, ask questions. Some important ones are the size of intro

ductory classes, how many classes are taught by teaching assistants instead of professors, what teachers’ language abilities are and how budget cuts have affected programs and facilities.

“For the most part, College A will appear pretty much like College B,” she added. “The difference is what’s important to the individual. The more schools you visit, the better you can judge what’s right for you.”

One thing Oppenheim tells her clients is not to rule out private schools.

“In today’s economy, private schools are making themselves as attractive as state schools,” she said. “There is scholarship and grant money available to lower

tuition in many private institutions.” Oppenheim, who does consulting work

at a fee of $100 an hour, said the application process can be a struggle no matter what type of student is involved.

“It can be a war zone getting kids to complete their applications,” she said. “Discussions about college can cause a great deal of tension, which is why parents often come to me. Kids will listen better to the opinions of an objective third party.”

The college counselor will speak in the spring at the Monmouth County Library Headquarters in Manalapan. She is a guest speaker at other library branches, as well.

For more information, call Oppenheim at 264-1022.

Speaker stirs co n tro v ersyBY LAUREN JAEGER

Staff Writer

he Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews” was the topic of a controversial speech last

week at Brookdale Community College in Lincroft by Tony Martin of the Nation of Islam.

Martin, a professor of African studies at Wellesley College in Massachusetts, spoke Feb. 16 at the college campus.

Martin has been denounced by Wellesley President Diana Chapman Walsh for his unpopular views.

He was invited to speak at the college by Brookdale’s African Awareness Society. His talk was one of 13 scheduled events to celebrate Black History Month, and the only event which drew widespread attention.

Beginning with biblical references to Africans, Martin discussed his opinion that Jews played major roles in the American slave trade and that Jews have kept blacks powerless by controlling and monitoring their organizations.

Martin said he was not anti-Semitic. Instead, he was trying to bring some facts to light, he said.

“You must prepare yourself to hear something you don’t like,” Martin said to the audience in his thick, Caribbean accent. “That’s what dialogue is all about. It takes two hands to clap.”, Martin began receiving negative attention at Wellesley after he began to use the textbook, The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, published by the Nation of Islam, in his classroom last year.

According to a Feb. 1 New York Times article, the book is disputed by “leading black-studies scholars, and Jewish organizations, scholars and Wellesley officials quickly condemned the book as anti- Semitic.”

The New York Times article also states that Martin wrote The Jewish Onslaught: Dispatches from the Wellesley Battlefront, which claims that “Jewish lies and distortions were supplemented, perhaps inevitably, by Jewish dirty tricks.”

Martin’s book also claims that Jews “have made a conscious decision to defend their privileged white status in what they might perceive of as the time-honored way, namely by scapegoating black folk.”

Martin spoke to a full house at the Performing Arts Center, where the audience was mostly white.

According to Martin, Jews played an important part in the slave trade.

“A Jewish scholar at Harvard made the

amazing argument that Jews had no responsibility for the slave trade (or) for the extermination of Indians, because there were practically no Jews in America until the 1880s. This is untrue. They were here from Day One. They came with Columbus.”

About half of the slave owners in Brazil in the 1600s were Jews, Martin said. He added that Jews were involved in every aspect of the slave trade, including owning the slave ships, auctioning slaves off, running plantations and warehousing slaves.

“They were very importantly involved,” Martin stressed.

Martin told the crowd that Jews arrived in New York City in the 1650s and then, as now, still constituted a small part of the country’s population. Martin said while Jews constitute about 3 percent of the population in the United States today, they constitute about one-third of the billionaires in America today.

“Slavery was big business, and so the Jewish population was overrepresented, then as now,” Martin said.

For 20 years, Martin said, he had been teaching about the slave trade to his Wellesley class. He said he had always discussed the roles played by Christians, Roman Catholics, Moravians and Baptists.

Martin said he had been unaware of the Jews’ role in the slave trade until recently, and then incorporated his newfound knowledge into the curriculum. It wasn’t until he began teaching this that controversy began, Martin claimed.

“For 20 years, no Roman Catholic tried to get me fired. No Quaker called me antiChrist. The ... weird situation was the Jewish community seemed to be saying, ‘You could teach the role of anyone else in the slave trade, but leave us out of the story. We are beyond the reach of scholarly inquiry. We are a privileged group.’ That’s how I interpreted it.”

Martin said that an 1830s census revealed that 75 percent of Jewish households owned at least one slave, while “the rest of the white population was 30 odd percent.

“Jews were twice as likely to own one or more slaves,” he added.

“The largest slave ship owner in the USA was Aaron Lopez of Newport, Rhode Island,” he said. “This is well-documented.”

Martin added that Jews played a large part in the Confederacy during the Civil War.

He also discussed the 20th century, in which he said Jews have kept blacks from gaining power in this country.

“There was no critical mass of Jewish liberalism prior to the 20th century,” he said. “The Jewish liberalism — that positive stereotype emerges in the 20th century.

Tony Martin

It emerges largely around the formation of NAACP.”

Martin said that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was at first financed and controlled by white Jews and gentiles when formed in 1909, and they kept that control until 1975.

“Why would Jews want to pour money into a black organization? What would they get out of it? There was an awareness that black people historically have been and continue to be sort of a buffer protecting Jews from the potential wrath of Euro- Americans,” he said.

“In spite of what anyone might tell you to the contrary, Jews in America have never been an oppressed people here — never,” Martin said. “I know of no Holocaust in this country against Jews. They have never been expelled from this country as they have from just about every European country at one •time or another. I know of no pogrom in the country, although a few contemporary people have been talking about Crown Heights as a pogrom — that is total foolishness.”

Martin said that affirmative-action programs are a minuscule reparation for the wrongs committed against blacks for 250 years.

Meanwhile, Martin said, Jews who survived the Nazi Holocaust had been paid $70 billion in reparation by the German government by 1985, and by now, “it must be over $100 billion.

“Jews are becoming the most powerful and richest group in America,” he said. “It used to be Episcopalians. Jews have passed them.”

Blacks, Martin said, are the reason why Jews here have been free from harassment.

Asked to comment later on some of Martin’s assertions, Julian Batlan of Manalapan, commander of the Monmouth and Ocean Counties Council of Jewish War Veterans, said that all Jews were forced out of Brazil in 1622 as the result of the Dutch conquest.

In the United States, Batlan said, there were 2,000 Jewish households recorded in the 1830s census, and roughly half of this population lived in the South.

He said that the families comprised about 13,000 men, women and children, and that most were impoverished German immigrants.

Batlan also said that most Southern Jews were abolitionists and actively involved in

the Underground Railroad.Quakers constituted the largest group

of slave-ship owners, Batlan said. Also, Benjamin Judah, the Jewish Confederate secretary of war, was a convert to Christianity, he said.

According to Batlan, the Crown Heights riot in New York qualifies as a pogrom, because hundreds were injured and one was killed as the riots went on for four days without police protection.

However, African Awareness Society Vice President Boyd Wilson defended Martin.

“Tony Martin has taught since 1973. He has been a tenured professor since 1975, a full professor of African studies since 1979. How dare people say this man should not come to Brookdale Community College?” he said.

Freeholder Amy Handlin, who spoke in the panel discussion after Martin’s speech, said that “the message you heard is who to blame and who to hate.”

She said that even if all of Martin’s claims were true, they are not constructive.

“As recently as 80 years ago, the majority of men denied the vote to women. Black men got the right to vote half a century before women,” Handlin said, speaking on a related topic.

She said if she had believed that all men were out to get all women, it would have hindered, not helped, her success.

Handlin also said that aspects of Martin’s speech implied that “African Americans can be bought, and this is a terrible thing to say. It’s a terrible slur to say that they’ve sold their souls to Jews or to anyone.”

Another panelist, Tom Richards, a Brookdale professor, congratulated the African Awareness Society and the college administration for the support of freedom of speech.

“What he said was a healthy debate,” Richards said. “It is time to address the issues. It’s asking us to re-examine history, keeping in mind how many historians have maligned and distorted histoiy. Whether Martin is correct or not, he’s giving us food for thought ”

Other panelists included Alkarriem Muhammad Ismail of Kean College and Trust Graham, proprietor of the Head Start Book and Craft shop of Asbury Park. The moderator was Carl Calendar, professor at Brookdale.

F r e e d o m o f s p e e c h : W h e n t o d r a w H u e

BY LAUREN JAEGER ---------------------------------------------------------

Staff Writer

I ngrid Carlson of Aberdeen grew up in Sweden dur- JL ing World War II.

Because of what she experienced. Carlson said she worries when a speaker like Tony Martin appears at a place like Brookdale Community College in Lincroft.

Residents and college officials questioned last week were mostly opposed to Martin speaking at Brookdale. Others, however, had no problem with it.

“I saw a lot of things. I know what went on,” Carlson explained about her opposition to Jewish conspiracy theories, recalling the World War II era. “I am still not ready to see Schindler’s List.

“If you want to see a change, it should be expressed in a positive way — not this way,” Carlson said. “I think there’s so many problems in this world, and it doesn’t help by tearing people down.”

Klaus Heck, meanwhile, observed Hitler’s rise to power when he lived in Germany, and felt that Tony Martin had the right to a diatribe on the campus.

“I would feel that speakers in a controlled environment where there are students with teachers supervising and students observing — anyone should be able to voice their opinion in this circumstance,” the Aberdeen resident said.

“But an uncontrolled environment with someone screaming unwanted and unneeded racism — that is what I would object to,” Heck said.

Jackie Walker of Matawan, who is the assistant to the president at Kean College, said she was “saddened that college campuses are being subjected to speakers who are not promoting harmony.”

On Nov. 29, 1993. Kean College hosted a talk given

by Khalid Abdul Mohammed of the Nation of Islam, and Walker said it was upsetting to hear slurs against various ethnic groups.

“It was impossible to listen to in one sitting,” Walker said. “I could feel my blood pressure rising. He attacked ... respected scholars and authors and well-known, national names. He didn’t spare anyone — Catholics, Jews, homosexuals.”

She said among the more offensive remarks she heard was that Mohammed called Hitler “wickedly great” and referred to Columbia University as “Columbia Jew-niversity” and New York City as “Jew York City.”

Municipal officials are gathering to speak out against academic forums hosting speakers like Mohammed and Martin.

“We have to let others know we will not stand for it when it comes to this kind of hatred.” said Aberdeen Deputy Mayor Richard Goldberg.

“It’s very destructive. To see these kids cheering the messages; the kids are being brainwashed.” he said.

“People have the right to live and let live, but this is sick,” Goldberg said. “And for anyone butting heads with them, this will be drawing more attention to them. Denouncing the message is what needs to be done.”

Goldberg, with Township Attorney Patrick McNamara, drafted a resolution which condemns Mohammed’s speech at Kean College in November 1993 and Martin’s talk at Brookdale.

The resolution ends with, “Now therefore be it resolved... (the township’s) opposition to the promotion of opinions which are recognized throughout our community and our society as being blatantly racist, sexist, anti-Semitic or which openly and deliberately disparage another segment of our society based on national origin, religion, race or sex.”

Johanna Kobran, vice president in charge of educa

tional services, defended Martin’s right to speak.“It’s essential that we protect the freedom of

speech,” she said. “This is a very sensitive issue and whenever you begin censoring, you step on shaky ground. People can censor by not attending the talk or not voting. I think it is important to protect a person’s right to free speech.

“We don’t rule out anyone,” she said. “I don’t think we can afford it. The KKK (Ku Klux Klan) coming to Brookdale to burn a cross: No. But if a group on campus wants them to come and talk, let them come.”

Other Brookdale officials do not agree with Kobran.Sy Siegler, coordinator of the Holocaust Center at

the college, said that his representatives were asked to participate in the panel discussion after Martin’s talk, but refused for many reasons.

“A bigot is a person who overgeneralizes any one group,” Siegler said. “It would be compounding the mistake if anyone who was Jewish would respond to this man because it would be acknowledging that Jews are a homogenous group.”

The coordinator added that his volunteers at the center, many of whom are Holocaust survivors, are devastated by Martin’s theories.

“lt reminds them of how it all started,” he said.In Hitler’s Germany, Siegler said, there were many

opponents of the Nazi regime, including clergy of all faiths.

“These people were disposed of: either killed, deported or both,” Siegler noted. “The larger population preferred to believe the lie and not look at any rational counterargument. This was prejudice in the worst form.”

But, Siegler noted, the college campus is quite different than the political arena.

“We don’t have the power of government to perpetuate them to rise, or I hope not,” he said.

Main St.

There will be three seatings — at 5, 6, and 7 p.m. Take out platters will be available.

All proceeds will go to the Homeless Action Team, Manna House and Project Paul.

The suggested donation for the dinner is $8 for adults and $3.50 for children aged six through 12.

Dinners for children under six are free.To reserve tickets or obtain more in

formation call Don Pope, 542-2097, or Jeff Waldron, 946-3181.

continuesOn the other hand, Neidlinger and her

supporters say that the corporation would not provide money for much-needed window repairs, and that is the reason a separate account was established. Dowd has said that account contains about $8,000.

During the visit, Doherty pointed out a large underground excavation in the oldest section of the house, which she said someone had been expanding and needed to be filled in for safety reasons. On the second floor, she pointed out one room where the ceiling and wall paint are flaking off the walls and ceiling.

Doherty, who said her love of history got her involved with the house, said the corporation had to act in order to save it. She also noted there was no control over the number of people in the house, which could have led to problems.

Doherty said a dispute over ownership of the museum’s contents is continuing between Neidlinger and the township: The Preservationists are carefully taking an inventory of items they have to move to make repairs, she said.

Janet Czogh and her daughter, Katherine Hern, both Middletown residents who serve on the Spy House Corp.’s seven-member board of trustees and are also Preservationists, were both working at the house during the visit and comment" ed briefly,

Czugh has unique ties to the house, having lived there as a child. Her grandparents acquired the house in 1921 and her parents later took it over. The family operated a tavern there from 1921 to 1954. It was first called Stava Tavern and later the White House, Czugh said.

“I t was a happy place; there were no ghosts in this place,” she said.

Czugh had praise for Neidlinger, however, saying, “Gertrude obviously saved this house.”

Hern said the corporation was doing the same thing — trying to save the house — when it decided to fight Neidlinger over control.

Asked about the corporation, Czugh said the board members were picked by Neidlinger.

The corporation is responsible for maintenance, while the Preservationists are supposed to be the fund-raising arm. • She and her daughter joined the fund-raising group about three years ago.

UPSTACRS AT THE SPY HOUSE — Kathleen Doherty, president of the Preservationists Inc.. is in an upstairs bedroom of the Spy House Museum, Middletown, which is badly in need of paint. Some people, she said, believe the peeled area at right is the silhouette of a long-ago resident.

as conflictDoherty, on the other hand, says the

Preservationists’always got permission from the corporation to run events.

Doherty declined to say how much money the Preservationists have, but she said that when the corporation leased the house, the museum did not turn $23,000 over to the corporation, as Neidlinger’s attorney said it did at the January Township Committee meeting.

The Preservationists’ money is from fund-raisqrs and from purchases in the museum gift shop.

Money left in a donation box at the museum entrance and tour fees are turned over to the corporation, Doherty said proceeds from ghost tours run by a professional group also should have gone to the corporation, but instead were put into a separate account controlled by Neidlinger.

Members of the Township Committee have repeatedly called for a better system of accountability and checks and balances concerning public funds at the Spy House. However in January, Township Attorney William Dowd also noted that “no one has ever suggested any wrongdoing.”

A ll along. Township Administrator Joseph Leo has portrayed the conflict as a family fight.

Doherty said Ed Banfield’s action of changing the locks in October to try and stop the ghost tour was “courageous.” Banfield is the corporation president.

“I think everybody had a key,” Doherty added.

Knowing Neidlinger. Doherty said she can’t see how the dispute between her and the corporation can be resolved. But some -of Neidlinger’s supporters have expressed hope for a resolution, perhaps in the form of a compromise.

Doherty said there were actually two groups running ghosts tours, a professional group and another group of young people and adults who worked through Neidlinger.

“It got to the point where something had to be done,” Doherty said. She doesn’t object to ghost stories, but said some of the stories coming out o f the house “were ludicrous” and that children were giving tours.

“We want to fix the house up,” Doherty said, adding that when Neidlinger was in charge, she “wouldn’t even allow us to paint.”

How about lim its for prosecutors?

Positioning himself for a third five- year term in office, the Monmouth County prosecutor has wrapped himself in the bloody flag of the drug war, cautioning us that because marijuana was allegedly the cause of an Amtrak accident some years ago, drugs should never be legalized.

And, from his perspective, why should they be? After all, the drug war is responsible for the civil asset forfeiture statute which permits the confiscation of property without trial, conviction or even a charge being filed.

In 1992, according to the N.J. attorney general, the prosecutor seized $2,115,092 in Monmouth County.

Since 1986, the year law enforcement succeeded in diverting forfeited property from the state treasury to its own account, the number of lucrative and unjust forfei

ture raids has exploded.Could it be that the prosecutor is

addicted to the drug war and the vast sums of money that accrue to his office because of it?

And then there are his narcotics police, the much ballyhooed “jump out boys,” who sweep through minority neighborhoods, endangering the lives o f themselves and the public, violating rights and having absolutely no effect-on the drug trade.

I f there were no war on drugs, “the boys” would have to go after robbers, rapists and murderers. And that would be a shame.

Oddly enough, the title “Monmouth County Prosecutor” is a misnomer. He is appointed by the governor.

Though we pay his salary, he is a state prosecutor over whom neither we nor our elected representatives, the Freeholders, have any control. ,

Historically, the sheriff has been the

chief peace officer in the county, but he has been reduced to ja ile r and process server.

I f the prosecutor were elected, as is the sheriff, he might take his oath of office seriously.

Another five years in office for the prosecutor?

I f term limits are appropriate for elected officials, they should apply even more so to appointees, particularly those forced upon us by Trenton.

Local seniors say thanks for dance

We would like to thank Mr. DiMaria, his staff and all the individuals who were

responsible for the senior citizens senior prom, held at Middletown North High School on Jan. 30.

The entertainment program was excellent, as was the food and gifts received by the senior citizens.

We were particularly impressed with all the students who showed such warmth, attentiveness and kindness to the seniors. They did everything they could to make sure we enjoyed ourselves.

These students are to be highly commended.

We are certain that all the senior citizens enjoyed themselves as much as we did.

It was one of the finest afternoons we have ever spent, and one that we will remember for a long, long time.

Again, thanks for a most wonderful and pleasant time.

There should not be anything but mutual respect between Islam, Christianity and Judaism. These are the three major, monotheistic world religions that are the fruit of the Old Testament. A ll contain the golden rule: “Do unto others what you would wish done to you.” Therefore, why does the nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and his representative, Khalid Abdul Muhammad, constantly make false and vicious, racist attacks against Judaism? Could it be that they realize, and wish to hide a potential weakness in the ir ab ility to influence and recruit African-Americans?

As knowledgeable Islamic ministers, Farrakhan and Muhammad are certainly aware of the fact that for almost 3,500 years, since the time of Moses, Jewish religious law has prohibited the owning or selling of slaves (see Leviticus in the Old Testament). Due to the Jews’ 500-year history of suffering as slaves in Egypt, the penalty for Jews involved in slavery was death by stoning. Over the past 2,000 years, Jews have been persecuted by other relig ions and nations throughout the world because of the Jewish religion’ s law that prohibits slavery.

Is it Farrakhan’ s and Muhammad’ s fear that black students and the African- American community will learn the historical fact that, long before Europeans came to America, the Arabs had a virtual monopoly on the African slave trade for

W hy do they hide the historical fact that even after Columbus discovered America in 1492, the Arabs continued to be the most active of all in the black African slave trade?

L ast w e e k ' s q u e s t i o n :Has your town been doi ng a good job of cleari ng ROADS AND HANDLING THE DIFFICULT WEATHER?

I live in Aberdeen on a cul-de-sac with seven homes. I realize that with the seven homes, our street does not get plowed as first priority as other through streets or busy streets. But I think that Aberdeen does a terrific job in plowing our street, even though it is a seven-home cul-de-sac, or a dead end.

JACK LIETZ Aberdeen

I am very unhappy with the road department and even private property owners who are not cleaning their sidewalks for our children to walk to and from school.

Since we do not have any courtesy busing, all parents have to leave work early to pick up their children with their cars because the children can’t walk through 2 to 3 feet of snow. The Police Department is unable to do anything about this; the Board of Education — nobody can do anything.

And I wish that every homeowner would realize that they have to clean their sidewalks for our kids’ safety. I ’ m tired o f seeing kids falling into New Monmouth Road, Tindall Road and Park Avenue because they can’t walk on the sidewalks.

JEAN HANSENMiddletown

Recognizing that these were extenuating circumstances, nevertheless, the more hilly sections of Holmdel, particularly in the area o f Holmdel Estates and Overlook Heights, tended not to get plowed; (road crews) tended to favor the through streets. While that’s understandable, it poses pretty hazardous conditions on the hills and the more hilly streets in and around Overlook Heights. The more hilly streets should be made a priority for safety reasons.

A HOLMDEL RESIDENT

I believe that the Borough of Matawan has done a pretty good job of getting the streets cleared. I think that downtown is in pretty good shape.

The only criticism I have is on behalf of friends of mine who live on Ned Drive. For some reason, their street looks like it’s in the middle of the Antarctic. It ’s been this way all winter. They seem to be getting bypassed.

But that’s the only criticism I have. Overall, I think Matawan has done a pretty good job.

PETER MCINTYREMatawan

I live in Port Monmouth, and Middletown did a terrible job this year. I know we had extra snow, but even the main streets weren’t plowed. It was one of theworst.

A PORT MONMOUTH RESIDENT

I want to commend the Road Department in Aberdeen for the splendid job they have done in keeping our streets clean and safe.

AN ABERDEEN RESIDENT

I usually take the Road Department for granted, but after the last couple of snowstorms that we had, the Matawan Road Department really took care of the residents. They did an excellent job. After driving through some neighboring towns, I really appreciate the job that they did. I want to thank them very much.

STEVEN DARLING ; Matawan

A local businessman in Middletown, among 20 or 30 others, off of Cherry- Tree Farm and Leonardville roads has been given a summons because his driveway has not been shoveled. I think that due to the extreme conditions, this summons and court appearance required are absolutely ridiculous. I f you call the township, you’ ll find out that someone has issued many summonses for local business people, and I believe (also to) private residents for not shoveling their sidewalks when the snow has been piled by the bulldozers all over the sidewalks, and it’s now solid ice. .

I f you look, 98 percent of the sidewalks are not covered. I think this summons should be dismissed under the extreme conditions. Check with your town.

Program will teach pupils to expand their horizons

BY SUSAN GRAZIANO

E

S ta f f W r ite r

xpanding Your Horizons,” an opportunity for sixth-eighth grade girls to explore careers

in science- and math-related fields, will be presented by the Freehold Area Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW). .

The workshops will provide students with an opportunity to meet and talk with women working in a variety of fields, many which are traditionally dominated by men. The all-day program will take place on Saturday, April 23, at High Tech High School on the Brookdale Community College campus in Lincroft.

While some of the careers represented are directly math and science oriented, such as electrical engineering, computer science, microbiology, pharmaceutical chemistry, physics and medicine, there also will be presenters in fields indirectly related to the two disciplines. These include a speech pathologist, a home economist, a computer graphics instructor, an attorney and a librarian.

Debbie Hamilton of Freehold Township is a systems engineer for Bell Labs in Holmdel. She will present a 50- minute workshop titled “Who’s Smarter, Your Computer or You?”

“Getting a good background in math, especially courses that involve logic, is important in my field,” said Hamilton, a graduate of Douglass College, New Brunswick, who has been in the data processing field for 21 years. “It’s interesting and challenging work and one that lends itself to some flexibility, which is especially important to working mothers.

System engineers can work for large corporations and do consulting and free-lance work from their home.”

The chairwoman of the symposium is Christine Kleinatland, also a systems engineer for Bell Labs. A Freehold Township resident, she graduated from Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken.

“I love my job ,” said Kleinatland. “And every chance I get, I talk to young girls and encourage them to study math and science.

“Every girl has the capabilities needed, but they’ve been told it’s not sexy or cool to be good in math and science,” added Kleinatland, who was one of 30 girls in a class of 300 at her school. “I was fortunate. I come from a very supportive family and I was never made to feel less capable because I was female.”

Besides the workshops (each participant will indicate their top six choices from the 33 offered and then be assigned to three of these), a performance by the Monmouth County Mental Health Players will be part of the program.

“The Mental Health Players will break down gender bias through role plays,” Kleinatland explained. “We not only want to increase interest in science and math, we want the girls to come away with the idea that they can do anything they want to do.”

Also from Freehold Township is Catherine Manlulu, a staff scientist for Dames and Moore, an environmental consulting firm in Cranford. She will speak about her work, which involves evaluating lab tests to determine if the results are accurate.

“It’s not a gender-specific field, but women in my profession are definitely in the minority,” said Manlulu, a graduate of Rutgers College, New Brunswick. “Recently, however, I went back to school to take additional courses and was glad to find more female students in environmental science classes than there were a few years ago.”

Manlulu majored in psychology and


minored in biochemistry, with her eye on a career in pharmaceutical research. She said making a career change is a very viable option for anyone who studies math or science.

“I will emphasize this in my workshop,” said Manlulu, who went in a different direction than she planned. “You don’t have to stay in the confines of your major. With a science or math background, there are many fields in which you can branch off.”

Freehold Township media specialist Connie Paul will speak about the wide- open field of library science.

“The card catalogs and paper indexes have been replaced by computers and CD-ROMs,” said Paul. “Librarians are no longer bound by walls. Through automation, we are connected to the whole world.”

Getting students ready for the information environment around them is a major part of Paul’s job.

“There are also career possibilities in public and college libraries, corporations and medical facilities.”

Marie Mitzak, Englishtown, is a pharmaceutical/nutritional consultant. She will discuss what happens before foods get to the table and how scientists protect consumers from botulism and other food contaminants.

“I ’ll tell the girls that good lab techniques are important in my field, as is a general love of science,” said Mitzak, whose 14-year-old daughter will assist with her presentation.

A graduate of Rutgers College of Pharmacy, Piscataway, Mitzak has a doctorate degree in nutrition science from Clayton College. While more women than ever are entering the pharmaceutical field, she said they are still far outnumbered by males.

“There are many role models in the community working in pharmacology,” said Mitzak. “I ’ll encourage the girls to speak with these women and find out more about their careers.”

The following is a listing of other speakers and the fields they represent: Sister Stephanie Sloyan, professor of mathematics; Sharyn Belle, satellite communications engineer; Maureen Shaw, corporate accountant; Melanie Will-Cole, research scientist; Patty Werner, surveyor; Shirley Albright, paleontologist/geologist; Megan Apy, pilot/flight engineer; Esta Ann Am- merman, pharmacist; Dr. Dorothy Pietrucha, pediatric neurologist; Dr. Dorothy Hoyt-Rehm, dentist; Liz Dunnell, dietitian; Sister Karen Dietrich, biology teacher; Yvette Van Hise, physics instructor; Nancy Snyder, speech pathologist; Susan Johnson White, systems architect; Melissa Hancock, law enforcement officer; Theresa Stravic, home economist; and Sila Cansever, technical manager.

The fee for “Expanding Your Horizons” is $10. The program starts at 8:15 a.m. and runs until 3:30 p.m. Lunch is included. Registration is limited to 250 girls on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Need-based scholarships are available. For more information, call 308-1852 or 780-9037.

The AAUW is a 100 year-old organization formed to encourage education for women. The Freehold branch meets the second Thursday of each month at the C lifton T. Barkalow School, S tillw e ll’ s Corner Road, Freehold Township. It offers a variety of education programs and is open to female college graduates or those working toward their degree.

For more information on the AAUW, call Sue Norton, membership chairwoman, at 780-9037.

Applebee’s: the pick of the day

BYMARC SCHLOSSBERG

S ta f f W r ite r

The first thing you notice about

Applebee’s on a mid-week

evening is the large crowd that is

waiting to eat. This can only imply that

something new, something inexpensive,

something good or any or all of the aforementioned is available.

The parking lot can barely accommo

date the number of expected diners. This evening, the waiting area and large bar

also were filled to the brim. A 15-minute wait is fairly accurate, and this gave us

time to peruse the surroundings.

Diversified is the best description for

this “neighborhood franchise.” A wooden

cigar store Indian, rotating barber shop

pole, pictures of Hollywood personalities^

local college and high school memorabilia

and even a Lawrence Taylor autographed

jersey line the walls and passage ways.

The fall/winter menu includes salads,

sandwiches, munchies, bites and desserts.'

A Southwest Stampede menu features

special dishes based on that region's

cooking.

A Santa Fe black bean dip ($4.69)

served with a basket of tortilla chips was

not as fiery as advertised, but this was OK

with me. The layer of black beans, jack

and cheddar cheese, picante sauce, gua-

camole, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream,

onions and jalapenos was a suitable be

ginning.

The quesadillas ($5.99) treated us to a

Hispanic version of grilled cheese and ba

con finger sandwiches (with a touch of sour cream, guacamole and salsa) that

were quite tasty.

A bowl of soup or tossed salad is

served with the dinner entree for an addi

tional $1.99. The chicken gumbo soup

was right on the button — thick enough

for a soup spoon to stand up in and chock

full of white meat chicken pieces, okra,

com, rice and good gumbo.

The bourbon steak ($8.99), a char-

broiled, 10-ounce sirloin marinated in pi

quant Cajun spices and served with

sauteed onions, mushrooms and fried new potato halves, more than atoned for the

previously aforementioned ‘‘mild” dishes.

It was quite a dose for the tongue and

quite a fete for the stomach.

The smothered chicken ($7.79) was,

like the steak, charbroiled. The good flavored, tender chicken breasts were topped

with Monterey Jack cheese and sauteed

mushrooms, peppers and onions. Fried

new potatoes (rice, baked potato and

french fries also are available) and crisp, fresh sauteed vegetables accompanied the

chicken.

Can service be toQ good? The waiter

knew his part. The memorized night spe

cials, the “it’s excellent” routine and all the hows, whys, whatevers and congenial

ity you would expect in a place such as

Applebee’s was there. The only problem

was speed — too much. The appetizers,

soup and salad were upon us with the wa

ter and the beverages.

So quick was a dispatch from so many

different persons and angles that we had

to actually declare when we wanted our entrees served.

This accelerated service was annoying

and uncomfortable at a small table, which

became cluttered and allowed standing hot

food to cool off.

Desserts were delightful and of good

value.

A bikini banana low-fat strawberry

shortcake ($2.79) is aptly described as “fat-free banana shortcake on a bed of

puree strawberries with fresh strawberry

slices, topped with fresh bananas and low

fat banana yogurt. Ninety-nine percent fat

free, less than 200 calories and one gram

of fat.” Although it took more time to type

this than to eat itv it was all there.

Now the fudge brownie sundae

($2.99), albeit not as fashionable in words Or calories, was as equal in the diametrical

side of the diet syndrome. A thick hunk of

hot brownie a la mode with a scoop of

vanilla ice cream, just melted enough to

please the eye, was great. No calorie count was available.

As I said in the beginning, Applebee’s

is something contemporary (indulge the

small parking lot and too quick service),

something reasonably priced (full dinner

entree, $6.99-$8.99) and something commendable (the entire package).

W in e : H e re ’s h o w to p ic k a w in n e r

As I ’ve said and written many

times, there is no substitute for

your own taste when buying and drinking wine. The best that wine com

petitions and wine critics can do is to

provide suggestions for purchase, but

after that you’re on your own.

A wine competition that I find infor

mative is conducted by the Beverage

Testing Institute (BTI) in Chicago. The

Institute administers a 12-month series of

judging, culminating in what is billed as

the World Wine Championship. It had its

beginnings back in 1981 with BTI’s

American Wine Competition, which lays claim to being the oldest national wine judging in our country.

BTI is reputed to be the nation’s only

full-time product testing service specializing in beverages. The Institute goes to

great pains to conduct their testing in a

way to minimize procedural and psy

chological errors. BTI’s president,

Craig Goldwyn, started the Institute at Cornell. He has done extensive research in comparison testing.

Of course, all tastings are in the blind,

i.e. the judges do not know the wines to be

reviewed, nor do they ever see any part

of the bottle. The wines are identified

only by random three digit numbers. Wines are presented to each judge in a

different order.

To check for fatigue, or an off day,

judges are occasionally served the same

wine twice in a flight, but with different code numbers.

If they score the same wines more

than two points apart on a 14 point hedo

nistic scale, the scores of that judge are

thrown out for that flight.

Does all this care and attention to detail mean that you are sure to enjoy all

the top scoring wines? No, but there’s a

good chance that you will like more than a few of them.

As a case in point, you might con

sider the results from BTI’s assessment of 2,632 wines from 19 countries during 1993. A total of 22 wines from 9 coun

tries emerged as World Champions from

the 1,391 medal winners. Happily, the

list of World Champions contains some

bargain basement wines and some sur

prises, in addition to the famous names

so revered by connoisseurs.

The World Champions are divided into four price categories: inexpensive,

moderate, premium and luxury.

The World Champions in the inexpensive white wine category are: Dry —

Hogue (Washington) 1992 Johannesburg

Riesling Dry Yakima Valley $6;

Medium Dry — Geyser Peak

(California) 1992 Gewurztraminer,

$5.50; Sweet — Kiona (Washington) 1991 White Riesling Late Harvest

Estate Bottled Yakima Valley $9.

The inexpensive red wine World

Champion is Rosenblum (California)

1991 Zinfandel, Contra Costa Cty.

$9.50. The honors for inexpensive

pink goes to De Loach (California)

1992 White Zinfandel, Russian River Valley, $7.50,

The World Champion inexpensive

sparkling wine is Deinhard (Germany)

Lila Brut Vin Mousseux $6.99.

In the inexpensive fortified wine cate

gory, the World Champion is KWV

(South Africa) Tawny Port $5.99.

Finding these wines is not particularly

easy because some are in limited distrib

ution. Wine & Spirit World, Ho Ho Kus, NJ, and Zachy’s Wine & Liquor,

Scarsdale, NY, have told BTI that they

would make an effort to stock the winners. Try your luck locally first.

For a printed copy of all the winners

send $5 to BTI, 310 Peoria St. #208, Chicago IL 60607.

plus tasting notes are available in

This week, we will continue to

explore some of the communities which

comprise our diverse county.Cathy Cleveland, owner of the ERA

Advantage office in Manalapan, shows

us Englishtown and Manalapan.

If you look at a map of western Mon

mouth County, you will see that the borough of Englishtown is surrounded by

Manalapan Township.Although some people may think the

two are interchangeable, these commu

nities are distinct.For many, the confusion stems from

the early 1960s when housing develop

ments began to dot the landscape. When

my family moved into our home, we

thought our address was Englishtown.It wasn’t until we received our first

tax bill that we discovered we lived in

Manalapan.The name of Englishtown is national

ly recognized because of the

Englishtown auction sales. Located on 50 acres on Old Bridge Road, this flea market of more than 700 vendors is open

each Saturday and Sunday.Throughout the year, thousands and

thousands of people arrive to search for

bargains and “treasures.”

They come from Pennsylvania,

northern New Jersey, New York and beyond, in cars and vans to shop for pro

duce, clothing, craft items, household items, tools and hardware, and an assort

ment of miscellaneous items.Visitors probably do not know much

HHAL I STVTi;

AL

BERTICS

about the history of Englishtown — the

fact that George Washington spent one of his famous sleep-overs here in a home that sits at the corner of Main and Water streets.

The town was settled in the early and

mid 18th century on land owned by the

English family.

In the 19th century, Englishtown

served as a regional commercial center

for the surrounding agricultural lands.

W ith an area of only .52 square

miles and a current population of less

than 1,500, there is still a feeling of country style about Englishtown.

It manages to preserve a look of earlier times while welcoming modern life

into its borders.Some of the finest housing develop

ments built in the past 30 years can be

found in Manalapan. When families

started moving into homes in Manalapan in the 1960s, the children attended the

Englishtown schools.Today, the Manalapan-Englishtown

school system has six elementary

schools and a new middle school.

Manalapan High School is part of the

five-high-school regional system.

The others are Freehold Borough,

Freehold Township, Howell and Marlboro high schools.

At one time, Manalapan was part of

Freehold Township. Founded in 1848, the word Manalapan means “good

bread.” One of the township’s major his

toric sites is the Tennent Church, built in 1751.

A fine example of the type of colo

nial church built in New England, it was founded by the Scottish Presbyterians

who settled.the area’s farmlands.Take a walk through the adjoining

cemetery and you’ll see headstones dat

ing back to pre-Revolutionary days.

During the American Revolution, one

of the longest battles of the war was

fought here.The Battle of Monmouth is re-enact

ed each June at Monmouth Battlefield

State Park, including Molly Pitcher

fetching water for the thirsty troops.

The park is also home to the historic

Craig House, which dates back to the early 1700s. It has been restored to show

a true picture of 18th-century life.The Owl Haven nature center is also

located here.

Both Englishtown and Manalapan

provide plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities.

In addition to golf, fishing and horse riding, there’s Raceway Park, home to

some of the finest drag racing in the

country. Manalapan Park is a big com

plex with tennis and basketball courts,

fields and plenty of room to picnic.

The Manalapan-Englishtown area is home to every faith and many nationali

ties. Houses of worship include Catholic

and Protestant churches and three tem

ples. A sense of neighborliness extends to the developments of large, single

family homes, senior communities and condominium communities.

A lot has changed over the past 30

years. Manalapan’s population is 29,500, up 10.5 percent since 1990.

Most residents agree that the area is a good place to raise a family, with a first-

rate educational system, plenty of recre

ational activities, safe streets and nearby

shopping on Route 9.

Many residents are transplanted

New Yorkers, especially from Brooklyn, the Bronx and Staten Island.

Since commuting is a part of their

daily lives, they appreciate the mass

transportation system that takes them to the metropolitan area in an hour.

Monmouth County offers so many choices of living styles.

For many, living and working in the

western Monmouth County communities

of Englishtown and Manalapan is the best choice of all.

BY WARREN RAPPLEYEA

S ta f f W r ite r .

The Middletown North and Middletown South high school wrestling teams are expected to contend for the District 22 team title this weekend, and both squads have several grapplers who figure to take their place on the medal stand.

Both coaches, Gerry Paradiso, of North, and Tom Erbig, of South, are expecting good showings from their squads.

Shore Conference A North Division champion Ocean Township will provide a stiff test in the race for the team title, while Raritan, Rumson and Red Bank Regional should gamer their share of points.

The district tournament, sponsored by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association, is the first step on the road to the state tournament for scholastic wrestlers.

The first-, second- and third-place finishers from the district meet will advance to next week’s Region VI tournament.

First- through third-place finishers at the regions will advance to a Super Region, with the survivors advancing to the state tournament in Atlantic City.

After seven years at Middletown North, the District 22 tournament has been moved to Middletown South High School, Nutswamp Road.

According to Paradiso, with the addition of teams like Keansburg and Monmouth Regional a bigger gym was needed. By moving to South, three matches can be held simultaneously, instead of two at North.

“Of course we wanted to keep it, but we were ending very late on Friday and many of the coaches, including myself, were looking for a way to end the evening earlier,” Paradiso said.

Leading Middletown South into post-season action will be seniors Rob Sagurton, 18-0 at 140 pounds, and two-time defending state champion Glenn Pritzlaff, ‘19-0 at 171 pounds.

Sagurton is a two-time district champ, while Pritzlaff has already secured his spot in state wrestling annals and will now try to become a three-time state champion.

Other Middletown South medal contenders include 130-pound senior Ryan Kukulski, 12-3; sophomores Colten Hilbert, 12-5 at 103, and Tom McGowan, 11-6 at 125.

Erbig said he believes that two promising freshman, Mike Holko, 7-5 at 119, and Joe McGowan, 9-8 at 152, could come home with medals. Learning the ropes during the regular season campaign, both freshman came on in the latter stages of the schedule.

Middletown North will be led in the districts by sophomore Mike Florio, the defending district champ, who is 20-2 with nine pins this year at 119 pounds. Junior Chris Harris, 16-3 at 160, is on a hot streak having won his last seven matches.

Other medal contenders include junior Greg Carroll, 13-6 at 145, and the District 22 runner-up a year ago; and Paul Oliveira, 11-8 at 152. Oliveira was the district champion at 160 pounds in 1993. He dropped a weight class this winter and got off to a 3-6 start before turning things around.

The Lions’ other hopefuls include seniors Phil Mattos, 10-9 at 130 pounds, and Steve Coll, 10-7 at heavyweight; juniors John Large, 10-9 at 103 pounds, and Tim Brennan, 8-7 at 112 pounds; and sophomore Tom Stewart, 11-8 at 171. Stewart also got off to a slow start, but is 7-2 over his last nine bouts.

District 22 preliminary round matches are scheduled for Friday at 5:30 p.m., with the quarterfinals to follow. The semifinals will be held Saturday at 10 a.m.; the consolation matches at 1:30 p.m.; and the finals at 3 p.m.

C o l l e g e t o h o s t E x p o ’ 9 4Thousands of tri-state area sports

enthusiasts are looking forward to the 17th annual World Fishing and Outdoor Exposition, which will run from March 26 at the Rockland Community College fieldhouse, Suffem, N.Y.

The fieldhouse will be filled with fishing tackle displays representing all the major manufacturers, hunting gear, guides, marine electronics and accessories, exotic travel destinations, outfitters, wildlife artists, sportsmen’s and conservation organizations, fishing boats, world class taxidermy displays - and that’s just the beginning.

The show will feature daily seminars and demonstrations with some of the country’s most accomplished sports professionals and sportsmen familiar with the local scene.

Seminar speakers this year will include Dave Whitlock, Kevin Van Dam, Bob Rochetta, Lefty Kreh, Peter Fiduccia, Lou Tabory, Don Kamienski, Jim Zumbo, Dennis Kirk and Jack Stewart.

New attractions at this year’s show will include an interactive archery range, a fish-fighting machine, the largest striper ever captured and a fly fishing school.

Show hours are 3-10 p.m. March 2; 210 p.m. March 3-4; 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. March 5; and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. March 6.

Admission is $8 for adults, $3 for children under 12; children under 5 are admitted free. Admission includes all exhibits, seminars and events on day of admission.

To reach Expo ’94 take Exit 14B (Airmont Road) off the New York Thruway (1-87) - it’s the first exit west of the Garden State Parkway.

TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT — Middletown South High School’s Kevin McNammara (3) goes airborne to get off a shot against Red Bank in the first round of the Shore Conference Tournament. McNammara scored 21 points for the Eagles but it wasn’t enough to overcome the Buccaneers, who won Saturday’s game in Middletown, 57-55.

Keyport graduate moves outside to star for Lions

BY ALAN KARMIN

S ta f f W r ite r

When Carolyn Hassmiller was a senior at Keyport High School, she helped lead the Red Raiders to a Central Jersey Group I state sectional title.

The other starters on that 1990-91 squad were seniors Colleen Hanrahan, Andrea Kreft and Lakenya Smith and sophomore Danielle Notarcola, while the sixth man was sophomore Erika Heilesen.

All received basketball scholarships after their graduation from Keyport - Hanrahan to Georgetown University, Kreft to Georgian Court College, Smith to Bloomfield College, Notarcola to West Point, Heilesen to Drexel University - all but Hassmiller. She went to Seton Hall University on a softball scholarship.

But after one year at Seton Hall, Hassmiller decided she wanted to give basketball another shot and Georgian Court College was willing to give her the opportunity.

Now in her second season at the Lakewood school, Hassmiller has become a force for the Lions, who are tied for first place with Caldwell College in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference

with an 11-2 mark, 23-6 overall.Hassmiller, a Keyport resident, has

become red hot, scoring 22, 14, 17, 10 and a career-high 25 points during a five-game stretch last week that saw the Lions win five straight games.

Coach Debbie Emery said Hassmiller’s play has been a big spark for her team and it came at the right time.

“Actually, about seven or eight games ago she went into a little shooting slump,” said Emery. “But since Feb. 13 she’s been playing really well - shooting better, going to the hole, hitting the boards - Carolyn’s just playing real solid basketball right

now.”Hassmiller is also playing a different

position than she did in high school. As a shooting guard, she is averaging 11.2 points and 8 rebounds per game.

“I think the big change since high school is that we moved her outside,” said Emery. “And she works hard all the time on different parts of her game. We can use Carolyn both ways; inside - we post her up sometimes, and we take her outside. And sometimes it’s tough for other teams to match up with her. If they put a guard on her we bring her in, if they put a big girl on her we bring her out. She’s versatile and what’s really made her an even bigger threat is her three-point shot.”

For anyone familiar with Hassmiller’s play at Keyport High School, it would be shocking to even consider her taking a three-point shot - yet she has connected on 29 attempts from beyond the three-point

arc.In high school, Hassmiller was a 5-9

post player surrounded by four guards. She was known for her play under the boards and her strong rebounding ability, but when she decided to play basketball in college, St. John Vianney High School assistant coach (and Keyport graduate) Nick Russo became almost like a guru for Hassmiller and has helped to make her a complete player.

“Carolyn’s biggest improvement has been her outside game, particularly her outside shot,” Russo said. “She was always a good inside player but now she can shoot the ball a lot better and she can handle the ball a little better. One of her biggest assets has always been her strength. That helps her inside because even against bigger players she can still score in there. That’s an advantage as a guard.

“I think what helped Carolyn is that we played a lot this summer with our (St. John Vianney) current kids and our explayers who are now in college. I think that competition and the fact that she just played a lot more in the off-season helped

her a great deal,” Russo said.“I think playing all summer helped me

a lot,” Hassmiller said. “I never really did that before. Before my first year at Georgian Court, Nicky helped me and I played a little bit during that summer but not as consistently and as much as I did

this past summer.“He helped me with some of my moves

and just kept getting me to work hard. Scrimmaging with the St. John’s girls and constantly playing with the good competition forced me to step up my game.”

Hassmiller stressed that it was more than just fundamentals that she needed work on, something that another member of the Russo family helped her with.

“First and foremost, the person who helped me the most was Nicky’s brother, Michael,” said the Georgian Court standout. “My confidence is what needed the

most work.“Michael helped me the most by giving

me the confidence to go ahead and have faith in my ability. That was No. 1 on the list because I really didn’t have any confidence. And that gave me the confidence to go to Nicky and ask him for the help on the other things.

“The confidence factor has really helped because I feel myself getting better with each game. Nicky has stressed that things have to come instinctively and they have been coming more instinctively with

each game,” she said.Hassmiller said a lot has changed

since her playing days at Keyport. She’s gone from being an inside power to a long-range threat - or both.

“In high school, I don’t think I shot beyond 12 feet more than 10 times in an entire season,” said Hassmiller, “so I never had an outside shot because I never practiced it, I never shot it.

“I think I had the ability to shoot but the situation and my role on the team did not dictate me taking shots from the outside. That was fine and we won championships so there were rewards for that.

“But now circumstances are different. There are not too many post players my height on the college level, they’re usually much bigger,” she said. “I love playing as a shooting guard but I definitely feel that because of the way I had to leam to post up in high school against some bigger people, it has given me an advantage against the guards I ’m playing against because I can do both - take it outside or

post up.”Emery said Hassmiller has become a

major weapon in the Lions’ arsenal and their success in the conference playoffs could rely on the sophomore continuing

her solid play.“There’s no doubt about it,” said

Emery. “Carolyn’s come a long way and she’s become an important member of our team. We would not be where we are without her and we’re counting on her to

continue to do well.“I think we have as good a chance to

win it all as any other team in the conference. We’ve beaten every team in the conference at least once. The team is playing well and I ’m happy with the way everyone is playing right now. They’re all playing very hard and I think defense is what’s going to win it for us down the stretch.

“But I think it was evident on Saturday (in an 80-55 win over Teikyo Post in Waterbury, Conn.) how much Carolyn’s play means to us right now. She scored six points in the first half and we were up by

just five at halftime.“Then she scored 19 in the second half

and we win by 25. So the more she looks to take charge and go to the hole and look for outside jumpers, the better off we are. I think she can provide the impact we need. If teams don’t worry about her, they’re going to pay for it,” the coach

added.The Lions were scheduled to host

King’s College on Monday. A win would enable the Lions to be regular season cochampions in the conference. A loss would mean a tie for second place.

In the conference tournament, the Lions are seeded second and will host Teikyo Post (5-14, 1-13) at 7 p.m. tonight.

S ta f f W r ite r

The Mater Dei High School boys’ basketball team opened the Shore Conference Tournament with a 69-57 win over Manalapan at home in Middletown on Friday.

The Seraphs (16-2), seeded fourth in the tourney, played No. 5 Red Bank Catholic at home Monday in the SCT quarterfinals. At stake was a berth in Thursday’s semifinals at Brick Memorial High School.

RBC upended No. 12 Matawan, 45-44, in the first round.

The winner of Monday’s Mater Dei- RBC game will play either Christian Brothers Academy or Holmdel in the SCT semifinals.

Mater Dei coach Keith Glass said Sunday he is pleased with the way his squad has been playing.

“I think we’ve been playing very well, especially lately,” said Glass. “I ’m very proud of the kids. They’ve played very hard. We’re 16-1 against Shore Conference teams (losing to Red Bank, 66-63, on Dec. 28) so we must be doing something right.”

Glass said while there have been some big individual performances this season, the Seraphs’ success been a real team effort.

“It’s always a team effort but we’ve had a lot of individuals do a lot of good things. Mike Iasparro (13 ppg.) has been our leading scorer all year and has made some very big shots for us. He’s a point guard and very talented. He won our game at Rumson earlier this year almost single- handedly. He made two foul shots with :03 left on a one-and-one situation down by one point - a real pressure situation. He’s been doing that all season.

“I think Eric Krueger has probably been our best player overall. He’s always been defending the other team’s best player and he’s still been able to score about11 points a game.

“Tommy Crawley had been struggling a little bit but in the biggest game to date against Manalapan, he hit for 20 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. John Soranno, our center, has played as well as anybody the last four or five games. So they all deserve some credit.”

Glass pointed out that the Seraphs utilize nine players and although individuals suffered some injuries, the team continued to roll.

L a n c e r s s t a yIn Shore Conference Tournament

action over the weekend, only one of four Independent area girls’ basketball teams advanced past the first round.

In its quest to recapture the Shore Conference title, top-seeded St. John Vianney (17-3) dumped No. 16 Brick Township, 78-34. Erinn Siemer led the way with 14 points and Erica Gomez added 13.

St. John Vianney lost to St. Rose of Belmar in the SCT final a year ago; the Lancers’ only loss to a New Jersey opponent all year.

St. Rose (17-1) is this year’s No. 2 seed and defeated No. 15 Shore Regional, 5030, in the first round.

SJV played Toms River North at home

“We’ve had some injuries and we didn’t miss a beat too much, but we did miss those players,” said Glass. “Rob Santifort just returned a week ago and he got 11 points and six rebounds against Manalapan off the bench so he’s made a big contribution.

“Matt Scaliti is the third guard and he’s made a huge contribution. Greg Reidy, the other starting guard, has played very well and very hard.

“And we have a freshman who just started to play, John Tierney, who’s about 6-4. All of a sudden he’s stepping up and I think he’s got to be the best back-up center in the conference. He’s talented and big and strong and really works hard.”

Glass stopped short of saying the Seraphs have hit their stride and are peaking at the right time.

“A lot of people have said that to me but you can always go out and lose tomorrow and you don’t want to jinx yourself,” he said before the Red Bank Catholic game. “But I feel we played our best basketball this past week - a win over Rumson, a victory by a wide margin over Point Pleasant Beach and then coming back like we did against Manalapan.

“It’s not easy for us. We’re a small school and once you get into the Shore Conference Tournament, to play against these bigger teams from bigger schools, it’s hard but so far, so good.”

Beyond this week’s conference tournament, the Seraphs are gearing up for the South Jersey Parochial B state sectional tournament. Mater Dei is the No. 5 seed in a seven-team field and w ill open up against McCorristin of Trenton next week. A win over the Iron Mikes will send the Seraphs up against top-seeded Gloucester Catholic.

“We’re a tough bunch and we’ll play hard and that’s all you can ask kids to do,” Glass said, “so whether I think we’ll be able to play at the same level, that just depends on whether the shots go down. That’s not their responsibility really. Their responsibility has always been to play as hard as they can and I have to say they’ve been doing just that and I ’m proud of them.”

The Seraphs also needed just one victory at home this week against Keyport (Tuesday) or Henry Hudson (Friday) to clinch the Shore Conference C North Division title outright. Mater Dei was 100 in the division entering Tuesday’s game against the Red Raiders. ,

a l i v e i n S C Ton Monday. The Mariners (14-4) dealt No. 8 Middletown South (17-4) a mild upset with a 53-44 victory in Middletown on Saturday despite 18 points from Angela Burgo and 14 from Sue Murtha.

No. 12 M iddletown North (14-7) dropped a 53-40 decision to No. 5 Southern Regional (15-2). Candy Campo led the Lions with 17 points.

No. 13 Keyport was overpowered by No. 4 Red Bank Catholic, 55-28, on Friday. ■

Other teams that advanced to the second round were No. 3 Red Bank Regional, No. 6 Manasquan and No. 10 Lacey.

The SCT championship game will be played at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Ocean Township High School.

TRAFFIC JAM — Rich Bennett (00) of Middletown South High School works hard to snare a rebound during Saturday’s Shore Conference Tournament first round game against Red Bank. Bennett scored two points in the Eagles’ 57-55 loss at home to the Bucs.

Superior design at Highland Ridge

Some of the area's most prestigious homes are found in

___ Manalapan. Many seem to bein a world of their own...nestiea on picturesque hillsides, yet their location is convenient for commuting, shopping and all other amenities important to homeowners.

Builder Avi Yoskowitz of Heritage Homes specializes in offering innovative home designs at Highland Ridge Estates, an established neighborhood, just off Route 537.

"Most of the homes in this community are in the $700,000 and up price category," he explains. "But we are building 25 homes, from 2,900 to 4 ,2 00 square feet, starting at $299,900."

As a developer with a penchant for being at the forefront of technology and uncompromising attention to detail, Yoskowitz delivers efficiency, beauty and excellence in each of his construction projects.

The most modern and innovative heating and cooling system is featured at Highland Ridge. Yoskowitz describes System: CT as a source of energy from the earth, producing three times more energy than it consumes and having the lowest operating cost of any home heating and cooling system.

As a result of this system, buyers receive hot water during the summer at no additional cost and qualify for energy-efficient mortgages.

B u y e r s l o v e f e a t u r e s a n d s u r r o u n d i n g a r e a

a t F r e e h o l d ’s S t r i c k l a n d F a r m t o w n h o m e s

Dedicated to building much more than the standard townhouse com m unity ,

builder Joseph Louro has done just that.

He has achieved his goal with his latest pro ject...Strickland Farm at

Freehold...a collection of classic townhomes in a serene country-like setting. These homes have set high standards for outstanding craftsmanship and quality.

Louro has overseen the development of more than 25 communities in Monmouth and Ocean Counties. But Freehold still has a special meaning for him. As a Freehold resident himself, his sons are both chiropractors in the area, and Louro and his family have lived here 28 years.

Roslyn Schwam, vice president of marketing and sales, describes Louro as a "shirt sleeves rolled up, on-site builder," one who is interested and concerned with every phase of construction and one who gives home buyers quality work...plus, much more.

Approximately half of the townhomes have been sold and Schwam notes that 40 percent of the buyers have been area residents.

It's obvious that a great deal of time and effort was spent on the designs and amenities in the construction of the five townhome models. Each of the Strickland Farm homes has a large, clear-span, ready-to-finish basement.

The townhomes include many standard features that are usually offered as upgrades in other communities. Priced from $114 ,900 , Strickland Farm's two- and three-bedroom townhomes, with total square footage ranging from 1,537 to 2,462, include central air conditioning, a gas-burning fireplace, pedestal sinks, oversize soaking tubs, 9-foot ceilings, vinyl-wire closet shelving, paneled doors, and full vanity mirrors, at no extra cost.

Huge country kitchens come equipped with deluxe General Electric appliances, including a continuous- clean oven, a dishwasher and a frost- free refrigerator, all at no additional charge. The kitchens also feature designer wood cabinetry, easy-care laminate countertops and beautiful nowax flooring.

An.other feature that Schwam tells about is Strickland Farm's recreation complex. Scheduled for a grand opening this spring is Strickland Farm's beautiful year-round facility, complete with a large, heated indoor swimming pool, an outdoor pool, exercise gym and two all-weather tennis courts. The magnificent 4,850-square-foot clubhouse will feature a comfortably furnished and professionally decorated all-purpose community room with a

large fireplace and convenient party kitchen.

"We want residents to have all of the luxuries right at their fingertips or right out their front doors," Schwam explains. "As a result, our homeowners are very happy here and refer Strickland Farm to their family members and friends...which speaks very well for our community."

More than half of the community

has been sold, many through referrals from present homeowners. "Sales during 1993 were fantastic, and we're selling eight months ahead of construction ." she adds. In M arch, Strickland Farm will introduce condominiums featuring 1,100- to 1,300- square-foot garden homes, complete with basements.

Complementing Strickland Farm's park-like surroundings is a tract of land

acquired by Monmouth County and the state through the Monmouth County Stream Valley preservation program. After the plan has been completely developed, within the next year or two, facing the townhome community will be a complete outdoor activities area. Schwam says, "W e're delighted that a lush green area will be right across the street from our community.

‘Grande’ h o m e s c o m e to Colts N e c k"Being the best demands more

than an ability to build fine homes," added Schoor.

"It involves a responsibility we take very seriously. Our homes are part of the communities that must enhance the environment and their immediate neighborhoods. We want our homeowners to be proud of their communities and homes for years to come."

For more inform ation, call SGS Communities Inc. in Manalapan at 577-1800.

SGS Communities continues to expand with new single family homes

SGS Communities Inc. continues to build on its impressive reputation in Monmouth, Ocean

and Middlesex Counties. Within the past year, SGS has created two communities of custom estate homes in Colts Neck.

Recently, SGS opened a third community in Colts Neck. The Grande at Colts Neck is yet another indication of the company's extraordinary performance in New jersey's home marketplace.

This exciting new community of single family homes is also one of the most stunning success stories in the history of New Jersey residential real estate.

The homes are priced from only $184,990, making them the most reasonably priced homes in one of Monmouth County's most desirable areas.

According to Sheila Gross, vice president of sales and marketing at SGS, "Until now a Colts Neck address has been an unattainable dream for most people. The Grande at Colts Neck makes home ownership here a very attainable reality.

"Colts Neck is absolutely the perfect place for young fam ilies who want to bring up their children in a country setting, so our location is definitely one reason why so many people are flocking to buy homes here."

"O ur company is committed to creating only communities that offer the very highest value," said Howard M. Schoor, SGS Chairman. "An indication of the philosophy behind all SGS communities may be summed up by the word 'Grande' which is an integral part of each community's name and our pledge to provide a clearly superior value."

Dubbed "The Grande," the Colts Neck location follows in the tradition of the extremely successful Grande at Ashford, P lainsboro ; The G rande Woodlands, Toms River; and the new Grande Woodlands West.

The Plainsboro location sold out in less than four months and The Grande Woodlands is now virtually sold out.

SGS Com m unities Inc. always seems to be in the right place at the right time with the right homes at the right prices.

A "grande" name is an intrinsic promise of grand design, construction, features, finishes and overall quality.

"The word 'Grande' also refers to the coordination of the thousands of

"The SGS style is to do things in a first-class way so that every element, every detail of our homes and communities are 'grande' in a very real sense, including our customer service.

Thousand Oaks means Howell luxury

The Kokes Family, prominent builders of residential properties throughout N.J., recently

added the four bedroom, center hall Oakwood model to its portfolio of luxury single family homes available at Thousand Oaks in Howell Township.

According to Jan Kokes, principal of the development firm, the new 2,160 sq. ft. homestyle, including basement, is remarkably priced under $200,000. The home was designed to accommodate those families seeking a quality built, luxury residence without the accompanying high price tag.

"O ur goal when p lann ing the Oakwood was to provide value conscious home buyers with an affordable, stylish residence. With many popular amenities such as a striking two-story foyer, the Oakwood model represents an outstanding investment opportunity," asserts Kokes.

Other standard amenities include a fully sheetrocked and painted two-car garage, an economical two-zone gas heating system, high quality vinyl thermal pane windows and maintenance free vinyl siding.

Guests will be impressed with the gracious living and dining room situated off the foyer. An oversized kitchen features a separate breakfast nook, abundant raised wood or laminate cabinetry and name brand appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large family room, available with fireplace.

Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms accompanied by a full bath. The master bedroom is exceptionally large and boasts a walk-in closet and private bath featuring a custom style vanity with full width mirror. All residences are situated on professionally landscaped sites of 1/3 acre or more.

Developer builds with a purpose at Turnberry Hills

Bo may know baseball and Father may know best, but John Szurko knows homes.

And, he has for the past 22 years.

Since 1972, John izurko has been associated with Heritage Properties, Ltd., a home construction business he owns. He believes that home building is one of the few professions where one can still see the fruits of their labor.

"Homes provide a lot more today than they used to; buying a house is the single largest investment that people make and with creativity, designs, pricing and landscaping, it's my job to take a form from an idea stage to a reality stage," Szurko said.

He feels his success in the business is due in part to his ability to offer educated consumers a lot for their money. He is extremely knowledgeable in the many facets of information necessary to run this type of business: engineering, architecture, finance, tax and mortgage, land acquisition and development and accounting, just to name a few.

He calls himself a 'niche builder', someone who can find an ideal spot in the marketplace and have the vision to make it better, different, and marketable.

"My work is mainly by referrals. My

Top of the Hill is tops in Freehold

For larger, upper scale, high quality homes, go to the "Top of the Hill" in Freehold Township. With the sellout of the first two sections, builder and partner Lewis Fromkin is now offering Section III and gearing up for the opening of Section IV this spring.

Section III features the newest model, "The Extended Canterbury." Recognized by Builder Architect Magazine, this spacious, custom-built home has five bedrooms, two-and- one-half or three-and-one-half baths, elegant living and dining rooms, cozy family room, two-car garage and full basement. ,

To give homebuyers an even wider varie ty of models from w h ich to choose , Fromkin Construction unveiled two other new models, the Devon I and Devon II when Section III opened. Canterbury and the remaining homes in Section III range in size from 2,600 to 4,000 sq. ft. and offer standard features including ceramic tile entrance galleries, fireplace in the family room and central air conditioning.

Top of the Hill provides families with estate living in one of the finest areas in the county. The location appeals to people with distinctive taste who are looking for a family oriented community.Prices begin at a modest $311,000.

formula for the '90s is to be able to work and adapt with change. It's difficult to innovate. I don't deal with trendy, faddish products, we just go with what has worked in the past. Each day presents us with a new challenge and I am enthused to wake up every morning because of that", he explained.

With the 1990s forging a genesis of high-tech equipment, Szurko is not worried that it will mean a large scale cutback of jobs in his field of expertise.

While electronics moves quickly, he still believes in the old-fashioned crafted homes and the trend that quality should surround each home, not computerized gadgets that make a simple process complicated.

His two biggest worries about the future of home building are the lack of skilled manpower and the increasing difficulties to finance and afford a home. He has interesting ideas about apprenticeship programs that should be set up to replenish the decreasing number of good carpenters.

"For each new home, there are 100 new jobs created for skilled craftsmen, but we can't fill those jobs if we can't find people with skills," Szurko states.

"Education tends to reward the super-ach ievers , but what about

rewarding the ones with craftsmanship or trade skills? When it comes to building a house, computers can't do the proper job...people can, and qualified, trained professionals are what we need."

Szurko feels there should also be more responsibilities shared by the subcontractors and suppliers with the builders so that the quality of the product will remain above-standard. He adds that regulations must constantly be upgraded.

The process of approvals must be simpler and quicker, the waiting period must be streamlined. Regulators should allow other means of financing into building and banks should be allowed to make loans to small business.

Parties who have access to capital markets buy up a lot of land at relative reasonable costs, set their own prices and simultaneously cut out a lot of jobs. He notes, "Let's face it. No investment in our future means no future."

Szurko is currently at work on two housing developments projects, one of which has already sold out, the other started with 27 lots and there are only four left. He definitely knows houses and is in touch with what people want. He knows the avegues by

which to get it and, 22 years down the road, if you look out the window and see a man staring at your house and smiling, who knows? It could very well be John Szurko, admiring the fruits of his labor.

Since 1973 Szurko has successfully built and marketed premier custom home developments and light comm ercial pro jects in M idd lesex, Monmouth and Ocean Counties.

His current project, Turnberry Hills at M illstone, is located in a tru ly unique area. A country-like environment, nestled among the finest horse breeding stables, farmland and meadows, Millstone is shielded from the sounds of contemporary living. But it also offers the convenience of magnificent shopping, easy access to the Jersey Shore, Atlantic City, Manhattan, the New Jersey Turnpike and many major highways.

Turnberry Hills' four, custom crafted model homes have been designed for families with impeccable tastes.

The materials used are all top quality and the designs of the homes are superb...up to six spacious bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, nine-and-a-half- feet first floor ceilings, full size basements and three car garages. All homes are on approximately 2.5 acres or more of rolling, lush, green sites.
