Conventional wisdom, vcorrect or not, bf i long dione can tell taiov*train station. Up until a couple westago, people wtto believe in that theorywould have though! Linden Is a dirtyplace. But for the last couple weeks,the station has reflected • pleasantimage of the city.

A few employees from Linden'sDepartment of Public Works spent theend of last month cleaning up the Lin-den train stflion. Workers paid partic-ular attention to the area underneathtoe bridge that separates the north andsouth portion of Wood Avenue, as wellu the area near the Win station build-ing, below the platform.

DPW workerr cleared -awaygarbage, pressure-washed the wallsbelow the brides and painted them,according to DPW Inspector DennisSheehy, who oversaw the project.They also repaired several light fix-tures and added pigeon spikes to thearea, to keep birds, and their waste,away fromJbs station.

Mayor John Oregorio asked theDPW to clean up the station became itwas getting noticeably messy. Thebacteria ani garbage made the areaappear dank, in Oregorio's opinion.Since the city had recently spent $4!

Those in attendance begaa the cer-emony by recttag the Pledge of Alle-giance and singing "My Country 'Usof Thee." They then thanked the threefirefighters who attended by present-ing them with a table cloth. The clothwas decorsted with the nsmes ofSchool 10's students.

The firefighters said the gift wasnice, but the fact that they rememberthe sacrifices policemen, firemen andother emergency service workersmade on Sept 11,200) was the mostimportant thing.

"It's good that they're keeping it intheir memories," said Rick Barnstadof the Linden Fire Department, whoacknowledged many of the childrenare too young to remember the attack!clearly, unless they have a tamer ormother who talks about ii often, likehim. "For thr kids whose fathersaren't firemen or police men, just tounderstand there are men and womenwho protect them, who will always bethere for them, is important*

Barnstad helped secure Linden Air-port on Sept. 11, 2001, because offi-cials believed the airport might beused as a stopping point for victims tobe shipped from Manhattan to Lindenvia boat In the days following the .

Vietnam veteran Jerry Noble,whose daughter Is a School 10 Moondgrader, is glad the school continues tohave a Sept. 11 ceremony, since manyof the school's current students wereprobably sheltered from the attack*when they occurred four yean ago.

Reyes, who wrote his speech with-out input from his parents or teachers,said he's Immensely grateful forAmerica's military men and women,police officen and firefighters. Whenhe discussed the topic afterward, hesaid some good came out of Sept 11,in the form of • lesson is heroics forAmerica's young people-

"We have people from all over thecounty coming in to use that train sta-tion," Oregorio said. "They park inour lot, but they also shop and dine inLinden, so we want to make sure it'staken care of."

The station is also near proposedredevelopment sites on South WoodAvenue and West Elizabeth Avenue.The Linden Planning Board voted to

allow Oregorio's son, John OregorioJr., to build an eighi-story apartmentbuilding on his West Elizabeth Avenueproperty, where JTO and Son Scaf-folding currently operates.

The city also has plans to turn afew of the blocks immediately southof the station on Wood Avenue into aSoho-like district, where residentialunits will sit above commercial space.

Officials and experts have said thatboth plans will attract commuters.

"It's a very important part of ourcity," Oregorio said. "Twenty minutes

from there and you're in Manhattan."The finishing touchei to the project

haven't yet been applied. Linden'sDPW still plans on installing threeflower beds on each side of WoodAvenue, according to Sheehy,

Sheehy also plans on contacting anart class from Linden High School tosee if some of those students coulddesign and paint a mural on one orpossibly both sides of the wall.

Roselle officials and Public Worksemployees have been trying to cleanup the borough for the past couple ofyears by issuing summonses to resi-dents who carelessly violate the

. garbage policy. A byproduct .of thecrackdown on improper recycling andbulk waste disposal was the creationof more bulk waste, In the municipalcourt, that ia. A week from now, thatcould be resolved.

The Rosette mayor and councilexpect to pass an ordinance Wednes-day whir' will allow first-time viola-tors of the borough's garbage regula-tions to plead guihy and pay a finewithout appearing in court, accordingto Council President Clarence Cun-ningham. Checks will be accepted bymail or at Borough Hall, like pay-ments for traffic tickets are.

T h e majority of the complaints weget are 'why do I have to come tocourt?' " said Superintendent of theRoselle Public Works DepartmentCarl Bowles. "People don't mind pay-ing. It's just taking the time off workand sitting, waiting to be beard by thejudge," that gets to them.

A similar measure was slated toappear on die council's agenda in Jan-uary, but was put on bold because ofconfusion over what the proper feeschedule' should be, according toMayor Oarrett Smith.

Smith said Tuesday that the confu-sion still persists to some degree, buthe expected it to be clarified by JudgeGeorgia Jones at yesterday's councilworkshop meeting. Information

from the meeting wasn't available asof press time Tuesday.

Even uncertainty over court feesmight not stop this ordinance frombeing passed, since the language usedin the ordinance doesn't discuss num-bers.

- KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID;ary council meeting was also meant toincrease the penalty for bulky wasteviolations, since the penalties viola-ton paid under the old system wereoften less expensive than paying forthe items to be disposed of properly.That ordinance called for a $250 finefor first-time violators; $500 fine forsecond-time violators, and $1,500 finefor third-time violators. All subse-quent violations were to be fined atjudge's discretion, under die Januaryproposal.

Bowles said he recommended asimilar fine scale to the council.

The ordinance is also meant tounchitter Roselle's municipal court.The court currently convenes twice aweek and is backed up with cases.Many of them are garbage violationcases, according to Bowles.

Roselle has had to hold specialcourt sessions just for wasted disposalviolators in the past. Nine months ago,for example, the court adjudicated 108alleged garbage violators, former Bor-ough Attorney Vincent Belluscio saidearlier in the year. Roselle's DPWwrites an average of between 25 and30 waste disposal summonses perweek, according to Bowles.

It was hardly silent when the northtower of the World Trade Center col-lapsed on Sept II, 2001 at 10.28 a.m.People who'd just lost friends and rel-atives in the carnage and were coveredin heavy grey soot were screaming,sirens were Waring and Air Forceplans engines roared as they patrolledManhattan from the sky. Yet Linden'sfire and police departments commem-oraled the tragedies of Sept. 11 withapproximately $ mtoutss of silenceleading up to 10:21 a.m. on Sunday.

Linden had its ceremony Sunday at10 am. at Firefcouss I on WoodAvenue. The time before the momentof nance was filled with speeches,htgpipe music snd a tribute to the peo-ple who died in the Sept II attacksand In the recent Hurricane Katrine.

complete failure. Despite the presenceof a United Nations stabilization force,armed gangs, encouraged by Haitianelite, have taken de facto control ofPort-au-Prince, the country's capital.Looting, kidnapping, carjackings andrape have become daily events.

As a result, many local businesseshave collapsed, crippling the economyof what is already the poorest nation inthe Western Hemisphere. Just recently,in light of the continuing violence, theUnited States evacuated all "non-essential" embassy personnel.

Politically, Haiti is still under thenominal control of an interim govern-ment and hasn't recovered from a2004 coup which deposed then-Presi-dent Jean-Bertrsnd Aristide, who wasaccused of tampering with electionreturns In 2000.

According to a recent Village Voicearticle, in one of Port-au-Prince's mostimpoverished neighborhoods, thenational police have freer> distributedmachetes to residents, encouragingthem to attack fellow unarmed resi-dents. The move is teen by some as an

'attempt to weaken the exiled Aris-Jtide'i political base, which Is primari-ly drawn from the poor.

The recent turmoil hat only exacer-bated the poverty gap, with more than

would be waiting for them at the exitof the store.

When or arrived, the officerobserved the two men running acrossthe front parking lot, with Officer KrisTomko of the Linden Police Depart-ment in pursuit.

The Rosalie patrolman, Michaelforeman, was able to block Pieta'sescape using hit car. Pieta then turnedaround and ran toward a waitingTomko.

He raised the hammer he hadallegedly stolen above his head, as ifbe intended to strike the unarmedTomko, so Tomko backed off.

Tomko followed Pieta through andadjacent apartment complex's lawn.Pieta dropped the hammer and Tomkowas able to tackle him.

Pieta then allegedly tried to punchTomko, while the two wen on theground together. When it becameobvious he couldn't escape, he ceaaedhis struggle.

Pieta and the other suspect stoletwo saws and a hammer, totalling $70in value, according to the store's man-

80 percent of the country's populationbelow the poverty line, according to a2003 estimate by the CIA.

Haiti's troubles, however, tran-scend domestic woes. At the countryoontiraxis to spiral downward. UnionCounty's large Haitian expatriatecommunity an powerless to do any-thing.

Fred Lorquet, a Roselle residentand Elizabeth merchant who emigrat-ed to the United States 30 yean ago,explained, there's "always bad news"coming from Haiti. He recounted thathis sister, who lived in Haiti, died inJuly. However, family members, cit-ing die slltoo-freque.it kidnappings,cautioned Lorquet against attendingtheAuwral.

Yves Aubourg, president of theRoselle Board of Education and theborough's former Urban EnterpriseZone director, recalled a similar expe-rience. After his mother died in June,he, too, was warned not to set footinside the country. Instead, he endedup having her body shipped to theUnited States.

Both Aubourg and Lorquet addedthat, in light of the recent violence,many native Haitians abandoned theirsummer vacation plans to return to theisland.

in'addition to informal1 relief effort)such u Lorquet's, the Haitian commu-nity in the area has banded together to

form the Haiti Solidarity Network ofwe Northeast, said Jack Martin, one ofthe founding members and a priest atSt. Mary's of die Assumption Churchin Elizabeth.

The network meets monthly at theSt. Joseph's Social Service Center to"keep informed from trustworthysources" and not the mainstreammedia, said Martin.

It alao frequently sends delegationsto Haiti. While there, they "build con-nections with villages" by providingmedical relief, assisting in buildinginfrastructure and hasping to rebuildareas destroyed by hurricanes andother natural disasters all too commonto the region.

Both Lorquet and Aubourg agreethat the United States hasn't doneenough to help Haiti. Saying he is"condemning the Bush administra-tion,'' Aubourg faults the UnitedStates for turning a blind eye and, insome cases, exacerbating Haiti's prob-lems.

In particular, he feels that, though"people a n dying everyday" in Haiti,"nobody's talking about it." Lorquetagreed, adding the "government heredoesn't really care." Martin added thath t waa "quite unhappy with Ameri-ca* rohrhj the MnMtion from Aristidegovernment to the current C M .

• Roselle Police made eight arrestsand issued 81 motor vehicle sum-monses over the Labor Day holidayweekend, while increased patrols w e non the road, according to Roselle Sgt.Thomas Nugent.

Extra police wen on the roadthanks to a state grant meant to fightdrunk driving.

Two of the arrests wen for drunkdriving, two wen for driven whohave outstanding warrants out againstthem and four were for suspendedlicenses.

Rosalie police decided to use themoney to put more patrols at variouslocations throughout the borough thisyear, la past yean, they've used it toset up a check point at a pre-deter-mined location.

Helping hurricanevictims

In the aftermath of Hurricane Kstrina, we have teen hor-rific images of damage, struggle and sadness from the vic-tim* along the Gulf Coast. But, we have also teen an out-pouring of support, compassion and strength from thosewho have suffered great losses during the last few weeksand those who have felt the need to reach out to those suf-fering.

All across die United States, volunteer efforts and dona-tions have spilled out of communities large and small. Ourown communities have been no exception. From enterprising youngsters who have set up lemonade stands to church-es and civic organizations that have banded together forfood and fund-raising drives, we have seen many greatmoments of caring.

A clear example of the great compassion for the stormvictims came from Union County firefighters — includingseveral Linden firefighters — who prepared themselves fora trip to New Orleans last week. During the last minutes ofgeiting ready for the volunteer mission, the local firedepartments learned their help was no longer neededbecause of the tremendous number of out-of-town fire,police and emergency personnel already in the area.

Of course, all of the time and efforts of those of us so faraway from the disaster zone won't bring back the lives andhomes lost in the hurricane. But for the victims, comfortcomes from knowing that communities and individuals hun-dreds of miles away are working to care for their fellowAmericans, making the best in the aftermath of this nation-al tragedy.

All volunteer efforts and donations are vital to helpingthose in need and continuing these efforts in upcomingmonths will be just as important. Get involved and donatetime, food, clothes or money when possible. The effort willmake a huge difference to victims whose lives have changedforever.

Making streetsscooter-safe

Law enforcement officers in Roselle and Linden are ableto take a step in a safer direction thanks to new legislationbanning the use of motor scooters and mini-cycles on pub-lic property across the state.

Long recognized as a safety hazard for those who ride thescooters, the law has closed a loophole that once made it dif-ficult for police departments to issue summonses to motorscooter and mini-cycle operators.

The law against these types of vehicles was passed July19 and just about two months later, police have been out onthe streets, putting the ban into effect. Not only does thisensure the safety of the scooter and cycle operators — whoare often children — but it helps in general to make ourstreets safer.

Police departments have in the past argued that the oper-ators of these vehicles often do not wear helmets or obeytraffic laws.

The first offense penalty for riding the scooters and cyclesis seizure of the vehicle and a fine between $100 and $200.After three offenses, the penalty is harsher, with a fine up to$750 and 50 hours of community service.

One provision of the law is that the motor scooters andmini-cycles may be used on private property, mch as drive-ways, or in a specific park designated by a municipality.This has the potential to confuse people who are unfamiliarwith the new law, meaning scooters and cycles may stillappear on the streets.

But, with the continued dedication of local police, whoagree these vehicles are a hazard, we hope to continue to seesafer neighborhoods with safer children.

"Free societies are societies in motion, and with motioncomes tension, dissent, friction. Free people strikesparks, ami those sparks are the best evidence offreedom's existence.''

History of an intersection is history of a townThese day*, it Menu as though

everything can be recycled and madeinto something elie. The tame can besaid of several parti of Rotclle itself.Let'* consider the ana around the fourcornen of Third Avenue and ChestnutStreet.

Way back in the beginning of time,thii area was the "Forest Primeval,'' toquote from a poem. For centuriei, itwas undisturbed except by a tew ani-mals and later by an occasional Indianwho might have been hunting thoseanimals for his food. Then, In 1664,along came a group of settler* fromLong Island, and thing! began tochange.

The first thing they did after buyingthe land from the Indians who roamedhere was to move in and lay out a fewstreets of a settlement that they calledElizabethtown. Among the next thingthey did w u to divide the outlyingland into 100-acre farm and wood lotsand award them by lot to the familiesof the new town. As the years passed,second aad thin) gsnentiojse of thesefamilies built homes on those lots and,by the time of the American Revolu-tion, there were a few roads and bous-es in the area that later became

legfeAfter the end of the Civil War. in

1865. a gentleman named John C.Rose appeared and persuaded theseland owners to pool their property andform the Roselle Land ImprovementCompany. The company laid out a vil-lage and went into the business of sell-ing building lots. They created a grid-like pattern of avenues and streets,which included the intersection ofThird Avenue and Chestnut Street.

The tales of real estate were good,and soon there w u a stone-cutter'sshop on West Third Avenue near thenorthwest corner of the intersection.Shortly after, a houst was built on the

The WayIt WasBy William FroNcn

southwest comer. When the stone-cut-ter went out of business, his shop waspurchased by the newly-formed Sec-ond Baptist Church and moved to acorner of West Second and Locust andrecycled into a church for the congre-gation.

The original location of the stone-cutter's shop w u now acquired by agroup of residents who formed asocial club and erected the RoselleCasino, about 1892. This became thecenter of social activity in Roselle,where alcoholic beverages and gam-bling were strictly prohibited.

The catino contained a readingroom, a dining room and an auditori-um, where tome programs were pre-sented, A number of tennit courtsoccupied the land closest to the inter-section, and high netting was erectedto control the flight of errant tennisballs. Meetings of the Clio Club wereheld here, as wen a couple of RoaelleHigh School graduation ceremonies.Unfortunately, this center of socialactivity was severely damaged by flrein March of 1916. The club membersdecided against rebuilding and insteadorganized the Roselle Golf Club. Theold casino building was repaired and,with many changes, became an apart-ment house.

No longer needed as tennis courts,that land toon became the site of threeframe houses, but the one closest tothe comer soon was replaced by afood market known, at times, as theSunshine Supermarket and the RoselleGiant The other two bouses, withtheir first-floor front rooms converted

into store fronts, became a cigar storeand a shoe repair business.

The land under these buildings wasagain recycled, with the completedemolition of everything built on it.Shortly after, a brand new bank build-ing w u erected on this spot. Althoughthe building continues u a bank, it hashad at least three different names andcompanies operating it.

While this destruction and con-struction w u taking place, the bouseon the southwest corner of ThirdAvenue and Chestnut Street was alsobeing demolished. This house, oncethe home of the Baron Henry vanOldermeel, w u replaced by a mobilehome that w u used u a businessoffice by the bank company, while itawaited the completion of its newbuilding. When the new building w uopened, the mobile office w u takenaway and the land w u then pavedover u a parking lot for the bank.

During these many docadea, thecomers of the east side of ThirdAvenue and Chestnut Street w e n altobeing recycled. The southeast comerhad been used for many years by thelarge wooden-framed building of theFirst Baptist Church of Roaelle. InJanuary of 1940, this church w ualmost completely destroyed by fin,with only fragments of the walls stillstanding afterward.

An entirely new church buildingw u erected in its place, and serviceswere held mere by the Baptist congre-gation for several more yean. Sadly,membership dwindled and that organ-ization sold the building to anotherchurch organization, and ceased tofunction. In recent years, this buildinghas had several names.

The northeast corner of ThirdAvenue aad Chestnut Street his teenchanges also. At one time, a housethere w u the home of Mr. Jay Rewalt,

who operated a drug store on thesoutheast comer of Second Avenueand Chestnut Street Eventually, theRewalts moved to a house on the westtide of Chestnut Street between Thirdand Fourth avenues. However, theRewaht retained ownership of thehouse on East Third Avenue aad rent-ed it to an undertaker who ran Smith'sFuneral Home.

After a couple of yean, the under-taker moved hit business elsewhere,and the house w u rented u a privatehome. It continued in this use until theRoselle Building and Loan felt theneed for more room than it had shar-ing a real estate office. The companypurchased the corner property and hadthe house torn down. A new, two-storybrick building replaced it, but toon hw u apparent that more room w uneeded.

There w u a very small but newhouse on Third Avenue next to thenew building and die company foundout that the owner w u willing, to telland the deal was made. However, thebanking company had no use for thesmall house, and rather than tear itdown, it advertised the bouse u a freegift to anyone who would take it away.

After a short tune, a taker w ufound and, one day, the house w uloaded on to a flatbed trailer and w ulast seen traveling west on West ThirdAvenue. The Building and Loan, nowknown u Roselle Savings Bank, builtan addition to its new home andextended its parking lot. Thii compa-ny, which closed its books on its firstday of business with assets of $2.36, itthe oldest continuing business inRoselle, having been organized in1889.

LETTER TO THE EDITORIs after-school grant really fair?To the Editor:

I am writing to comment on the article dated Sept I, titled "Linden after-school program funded by grant." When it comes to handing out hard-earnedtaxpayers' monies, 22nd District state Sen. Nicholu Scutari and Assembly-woman Linda Slender are there to throw good money at bad money.

With this grant, I think it is insulting that we are raising children to nly ongovernment subsidies or even private donations. At the rate it it headed, Lindenwill be known as a distressed district entitled to Abbott funding, all thanks to theliberal mindset.

Instead of trying to find ways to lower taxes, these elected officials continueto raise and spend. There are many solutions, but when it comes to our currentassemblywoman and senator, all they can give a n excuses. The real questionhere is why only Schools I and i will receive these funds for what is really after-care, so their parents do not have to pay for a baby sitter after school.

What happens to the other elementary schools in Linden? Are Scutari andSlender playing clsss warfare or the race card? Why do parents who have chil-dren in Schools 4, School 9, etc. have to pay for after-can? It this a creative wayfor you, the dopey taxpayer, lo be manipulated in the future for paving for thisprogram? This is nothing but bigger government at taxpayer expenses.

We will have to wait until next year to see how much more money will beallocated u a line item on the bloating school budget What's next, handing outbackpacks for kids?

The Roselle offense Isguided by senior QBMichael Oease (No. 15).The Rams are scheduledto open their 2005 sea-son tomorrow night at 7at North Plainfleld. TheCanucks won at Hacfc-ettstown 41-14 lastFriday night In their sea-son-opener. Last year,North Plainfleld defeatedRoselle 37-6 In Roselle.

Roselle ready to go as theRams will open at N. Plain.Seek to continue improvement made last year

By Timothy DenmanSUIT Writer

Making strides on the field and in the win column wereinitial steps taken by Roselle last season.

The Rams want to continue that improvement this year.It all begins this weekend.Roselle will open iu 2005 season at North Plainfield

tomorrow night. Kickoff at Krausche Field, located onRoute 22 East, is set for 7.

Chris Satterfield did a nice job in his first year at thehelm, guiding Roselle to s respectable 4-6 mark.

Roselle managed to win more games in 2004 than it didin the 2002 (2-8) and 2003 (1-9) seasons combined.

The Rama continue to have a long way to go at far aschallenging for a Mountain Valley Conference-MountainDivision title or a Central Jersey, Group 2 playoff berth.

Satterfield, a 1982 Roselle grad who played for LouGrasso who he succeeded as head coach, hopea to keep theRams going in the right direction.

In order for the program to continue progressing thisyear, the team will have to find a way to win with a largegroup of inexperienced underclassmen.

Only 10 members of this year's squad were varsity play-ers last season and only half of those were starters, with 13players lost to graduation.

"We have a young and some would say, 'undersized'lean," Satterfield said. "Although a lot of the kids aresmall, they don't play that way. There is no fear in them.The little guys are willing to mix it up with the big guys,which is what you look for."

Satterfield will once again be featuring the spreadoffense, with some l-formation thrown in.

Mike Dease will be at the helm of the Rams offenseonce again. The three-year starting quarterback took a littlewhile last season to familiarize himself with Satterfield'soffense, but he has come into his own this season in pre-season camp.

Helping to keep the pressure off of Dease will be seniortackle Spain Maynor. Although he didn't play last season,Maynor excelled as s sophomore in both pass blocking andrushing plays and is being recruited by the University ofVirginia.

Joining Maynor on the offensive line is senior Rob Sala-manca. The guard is a fine blocker and a smart player, oneSatterfield describes as having another coach on the field.

Sharing the tailback-duties will be a pair of speedsters inTaj Martin and Dante Payne. Martin weighs in at 150pounds, while Payne is a little bigger at 165. Both play big-ger than their stature indicates.

"We have some small tailbacks," Satterfield said. "Butthey are both vary quick, good with their hands, and can laya block. I think they will both do a nice job for us."

The Rams' receiving unit will be lead by senior BreyiuiWilliams.

Williams sat out his junior season with an injury andwill be looking to make up for loet time when the seasonkicks off for Resell* next weekend.

The strength of the Rams' 4-3 defense should be theirlinebacking group.

Harold Hood leads the way from the middle linebackerposition, with Nick Cooper and Brandon Smith manningthe outside positions.

"We expect our linebackers to have a good season forus," Satterfield said. "They all have some experience at theposition and should be the backbone of the defense. Wehave some good speed on defense and should be able to runthe ball down."

Many of die Rams are first-year players or playersreturning to the football field after taking a year off. Muchof the early"going has seen Satterfield and his staff teachinghis new recruits all phases of the game.

"We had to spend some time at the beginning of campgoing over the basics," Satterfield said. "Everyone is goingto point out that we are small and inexperienced, but this isa tight group of kids. They are willing to sacrifice for eachother and have really come together as a team, which ismuch more important."

NOTES: Roselle was one of only two Union Countyschook that did not open last weekend. The other was NewProvidence.

Roselle and New Providence had their game-scrim-mages last weekend.

Roselle fell to visiting North Plainfield 37-6 in lastyear's season-opener. North Plainfleld went on to win theMountain Division and qualify for the Central Jersey,Group 2 playoffs.

The Rams came back to win at N e w k Central 32-18and beat Johnson 6-0 at home.

When you ace a running back sprint through a hole on his way to a tmch-down or a quarterback drop back and have enough time to find an open receiv-er, it is because they a n receiving excellent blocking.

What is one of the toughest aspects of coaching high school football?Teaching the proper way to block.Here's what Union County coaches had to offer oa die subject:Marc Crtsafl, Ualoa: "To start off, you have to have quickness to explode

off the ball. Leverage is how to get pad level lower than the competition anddrills for foot work on a sled helps a player shoot for leverage.

"Each day in practice we go through a daily routine of drills, which includescombination blocks."

Crisafi played on the line at Union in the early 1980s."The biggest transition for me was learning how to block with my hands as

opposed to ihoulder blocks. In different situations you can incorporate both.Trapping means using your shoulder or blocking down. A zone scheme is wherethe use of hands comes into plsy.

"In a league (Watchung Conference) like ours, there are a lot of nice skilledplayers, so blocking is a major factor. Being a former lineman who played forLou Rettino and Fred Stengel, it was emphasized that line play was of the utmostimportance. We didn't really have a lot of big linemen. We learned to beat ouropponent on leverage and toughness."

John Wagner, Roselle Psrk: "We teach shoulder blocking and finishingwith the hands. A lot of high school players are big bench press people and wantto use their hands to push other players. We try to teach them to get in close anduse their body as well as their hands. In order to do that successfully, however,the feet play a big part. They have to learn how to position their feet to get intoa blocking position. We are a heavy footwork team."

Scott Miller, Brearley: "We do a lot of work with the hands and the facewhen we teach blocking. We teach the kids to make contact with their heads up,so they can see what is in front of them.

"We do s lot of double team blocking, which limits the amount of contact aplayer needs to make with his head. We don't concern ourselves too much withshoulder blocking, we just work on keeping our hands inside and workingtogether to get the job done."

Joe Goerge, Dayton: "I believe the hardest position to coach i« the offensiveline. It requires more repetition, more technique, more constant drilling andintelligence and hand placement. Technfque is absolutely an art. We have a guylike Bob Martin (assistant coach) teach it and it has to be drilled over and overand over again. The offensive line, it's not s glory position.

"Blocking comes down to one simple word - desire. The difference betweena 10-yard gain and a 40-yard touchdown run is a little more effort on the line-men. I tell kids that four or five plays usually determine a game. You can see itin receivers as clear as day. Does he h jstle on every play, block on every play ordoes he just hustle when he knows use ball is getting thrown to him?

"If you can hit somebody, you can make the block. We will not tolente anylack of effort. That needs to be corrected quickly and is more important than theguy that catches the ball."

George DiGrande, Summit: "Since you can use your hands now, you haveto take advantage of it. The days of the shoulder block are over. We tell them toget their hands on the inside of the player they are blocking and drive throughthem with their legs.

"We use the sled to get the feeling of moving some weight with their blocks.We like to do a lot of one-on-one drills. The best way to get better at blocking isto work at it with a live person.

"It is not only important for the linemen to learn to block effectively, buteveryone has to be a good blocker. Your wide receiver and backs have tobe able to block people in the open field, which many times is even harder."

Terry Haaratty, Governor Livingston: "We teach a lot of different blocks.Our running backs block, our receivers block and our linemen block. We workon down blocking and double teams and try to teach each different kind of blockfor each position.

"The most important thing is that the kids learn the right techniques and learnhow to step with the right foot. A lot of time a kid is just more comfortable lead-ing with either his left or right foot, so w.: try to teach them to be able to leadwith each foot, depending on the situation.

"When we teach blocking, wi teach it in stages. We start with the feet, thenthe arms and then the upper body. A good block always starts with the feet andthen you build from there. It is a progression.''

Jeff Wiener, Elizabeth: "We teach blocking the way it's supposed to betaught and that it to protect at all time. Be the aggressor and protect from headto toes. The head doesn't come into play as far as blocking the head and neck.We teii h all proper positions and they are posted on a board.

"As far u technique, blocking and tackling are two of the most importantproponents of the game. If you can't block and tackle, you're not going to win.Nothing else matters."

Jim Hopke, Hillside: "The most important thing when it comes to blockingis having good feet and being able to explode off the ball. Blocking has changedover the yean. Everyone now blocks with there hands, which is fine, but the keyto a good block will always be with the feet. We teach the kids to stay low anddrive their man with their legs.

"Even if a kid can't block well we try to teach him to get himself between thedefender and the ball. We tell the kids it is just like playing defense in basket-ball. You need to get yourself between the guy with the ball and the basket Aslong as they are getting to the point of attack quickly, the rest can be taught."

Bwky McDonald, Lindea: "We are dinosaurs over here. We teach shoulderskills when it conies to blocking. We start at a finished block and work our waybackwards. We wotic on shoulder skills every day in practice. When the quar-terbacks are getting loose, the rest of the team is working on blocking.

"We don't spend time with hands. We just concentrate on the area from theelbow to the shoulder u the point of contact for our blocking scheme. Ninetyfive percent of coaches will laugh at you when you say you still teach shoulderblocking, but we think it is still the most successful method. We are just lookingto block half a man. Just that little edge is all you need* to get around a guy andstop him from making a play."

Gary Mobley, Rahway: "We just have the guys move the sled. We feel thatin order to block effectively, force must be exerted using the right technique. Agood block is effectively moving an object out of your way.

"The best way to practice moving an object is to get out there and move anobject We don't use blocking bags or anything like that because it always leadsto problems when you have kids holding them.

"Foot placement hand placement, angle and drive with die feet is important."Chris SatterfltM, Roselk: "We teach a little of everything depending on the

play. We try to tailor our blocks to the way the defender is coming against us.There are some kids that just csn't do certain blocks, so the key is to find whateach player is capable of and working with his strengths. You have to put theplayers in the best possible position to succeed."

Gae Kalikas, Jehnsoa: "We work on power steps and jab steps. We alsostress footwork and we work on power steps and jab steps. We also stress driv-ing the feet and rolling the hips into a block. Stance and footwork are the mostimportant things.

"We tell them that contact starts at the block, but it doesn't end there. Youneed to finish your blocks off. Initial contact is just the beginning.

"We use the sled, dummies and live action. Live action is the best, bat youcant do that all the time because you don't want to wear your kids down. When-ever we can, we go live.

"I know 1,000 things about blocking and there are still probably 10,000things I don't know. Thai's how much goes into it."

Erik RossnsMler, Cranford: "The keys are knowing the correct steps andgetting into position quickly. Trust, desire and looking for your f"»"trtf areimportant. Kids have to depend on one another If they want to get it done, theyhave to have the necessary desire. It's about caring about each other.'*

Historicclues atcemetery

By Lauren DtFiUppoStaff Writer

Editor's aota: This Is part of acontinuing series about historicalsites la Union County.

History is everywhere in UnionCounty. In some instances, it's easierto see than in others.

Signs note sites of historic battles,or the homes and other buildingswhere crucial events to the course ofAmerica's and even New Jersey's pastand ultimately both entities' fljture.

However, the historic significanceof some signs, like those for Union'sFsitoute and Townley svenues, orHillside's Lyons Avenue, actuallybear the names of tome of the area'searliest and sometimes most promi-nent settlers and their properties.

The connection can be uncoveredby taking a short walk through Hill-side's historic Evergreen Cemetery.

Begun in 1853, the cemetery'sproperty now coven three towns -Hillside, Elizabeth and Newark —and two counties — Union and Essex.

The original property included 30acres purchased from the John TatsFarm from Upper Road in UnionTownship, historian and curator Jean-Rae Turner wrote in "A Self-GuidedTour of Evergreen Cemetery."

By 1928, the cemetery reached itscurrant size of 115 acres.

The cemetery was founded by agroup of area ministers and business-men who believed a non-denomina-tional cemetery w u necessary aschurch graveyards became filled.Turner wrote.

Turner said the cemetery is inter-esting because for some individuals,their grave marker is the only evi-dence they existed on Earth.

"Everything in a cemetery has areason," Turner said.

And, she should know. She hasspent the last 24 years researching thepeople who call Evergreen Cemeterytheir final resting places.

And, they all have a story,although, Turner noted, some are eas-ier to research than others.

The inhabitants include militarymen from the Civil War and bothWorld Wars, as well aa the familymembers of the Revolutionary-eraspy Cavalier Jouet.

Through her research, Turner saidthe has learned a lot about the sym-bolism and traditions of burial.

"Usually, a person puts on thething that means moat to them," shesaid of decorative elements to gravemarkers as she drove through thecemetery.

But, she said, there are other sym-bols.

Anything adorned with drapessymbolizes mourning. Turner said,glancing around the cemetery. Urnsmean ashes of death.

"Qranita stands up the best," shesaid, looking at stones that have notwithstood more than a century ofwear and tear.

"turner said that when she startedresearching the cemetery, and its

inhabitants, the only person thoughtto be of any historic value was authorStephen Crane.

Crane, who died at the age of 29from tuberculosis, authored "The RodBadge of Courage" and served as awar correspondent in conflicts inCuba and Greece.

Though Crane is probably the mostfamous person buried at EvergreenCemetery, the property also containsthe headstones of Mary Mapes Dodge,who edited the children's periodical"St. Nicholas Magazine" and wrote'Hans Brinker or The Silver Skates."

Children's book innovator EdwardStratemeyw is also buried in the ceme-tery.

Stratemeyer introduced the conceptof the continuing series of books forboys and girls where the same charac-ters appeared in many books. Turnerwrote. The series included "NancyDrew," and "The Hardy Boys." Don-ald Barr Chidtey, who is also buried atEvergreen, waa one of the authors.

Evergreen Cemetery is listed onboth the state and federal registries ofhistoric places.

As relief efforts u> assist those moat(Sirectly effected by the devastation ofHurricane Katrina, some of UnionCounty's Finest boarded a bus to makethe long journey to the epicenter of theaction.

In the early morning hours of Sept7, three members ot the Sheriffsdepartment — Sgt George Marmara,and Officers Brandon Sullivan andEric Finney —joined a contingent ofnearly 200 police and Hazmat person-nel from across the stale.

"These individuals who aredeploying today are meeting a desper-ate public service," Acting Oov.Richard Codey said in a preparedstatement released last week.

All three of the officers are part ofthe Union County EmergencyResponse Team, Union County SheriffRalph Froehlicb said.

"I am very proud of all of theseofficers," the sheriff said.

Though Froehlich said he w uimpressed with the officers' quick andwilling response, he still has someconcerns, especially of what lift onthe force will be like, once the officersretum in approximately two weeks.

"These men and women an goingto ace things that are absolutely hor-rendous," Froehlich said, calling tomind the devastation not only of prop-erty but also human life.

He also said that special serviceswill be made available to officers whorequire them upon their return.

As members of the UCERT, the

three sheriffs officers have receivedspecial training in how to respond toinstance* of attacks by biologicalweapons, bombs and other terroristthreats with the same preparednesswith which avenge law enforcementincidents are handled.

The three officers responding to theGulf Coast also had to bring much oftheir own equipment with them, suchas emergency lighting and water-resistant rubber gear, which are neces-sities, Froehlich said.

"All of this it very, vary impor-tant," be said.

The sheriff also noted that hisoffice is just one of the many emer-gency services offices mat was askedto respond to the Gulf Coast fromaround the county, at part of a larger,state-coordinated effort

He also said that these three offi-cers are probably the first in a series ofdeployments his office will make tothe region until the relief efforts a nconcluded. "Shame on us, and anyagency that does not respond,"Froehlich said.

However, Froehlich was realisticabout the speed with which relief willbe delivered to the affected area.

"This la going to go on for a longtune," he said.

The officers time in the Gulf Coastwill be part of their regular workschedule. Any overtime will be com-pensated for by the federal govern-ment, Froehlich said.

State trooper indictedBy Laurea DaFHIppe

Staff WriterA veteran State Police sergeant

was among 21 people indicted byUnion County, Prt lecutor TheodoreRomankow announced Mondayafternoon.

Moises Hernandez, 39, of Oak-land Avenue, Union, fumed himselfin to authorities at 1 p.m. Monday,prosecutors said. He is being held atUnion County Jail on $150,000 bailon charges of conspiracy to commitracketeering, official misconductand falsifying reports. He was sus-pended without pay in June duringthe investigation, prosecutors said.

Authorities allege that Hernan-dez, a 19-year veteran of the StatePolice, assigned to the NarcoticsUnit, played a role in one of thelargest drug distribution rings everuncovered in the county.

It is alleged that Hernandez usedhis law enforcement position to pro-vide confidential information aboutsurveillance measures to the opera-tors of the drug ring, authorities said.

"By doinff that, he placed thesafety of all those officers includingother state troopers working the casein great jeopardy," Romankow saidin a prepared statement releasedMonday afternoon.

Hernandez's indictment comeswith 20 others that stem from anApril drug bust, following a four-year investigation, initiated by

Kenilworth Detective Justin Marran-ca.

More than 200 federal, state,county, and municipal law enforce-ment officers look part in the raid, inapproximately six area towns simul-taneously, and yielded 20 suspects,and more than 5 kilograms of drugs,more than 10 can, a motorcycle, fiveguns, and a stun gun, and more than$500,000 in cash.

According to authorities, the net-work trafficked heroin from a singlesource near Cali, Colombia, and dis-tributed the drugs in Newark andUnion, aa well as other municipali-ties in Essex and Middlesex counties,Ca-aden, New York City and Pitts-burgh.

"Sadly, this law enforcementofficer is now one of the defendantsin this case that involved bringingmore than 6 kilograms of high gradeheroin into the metropolitan areaevery single day," Romankow said.

The suspected ringleader of theoperation, Alejandro Cleves, 25, ofElizabeth, is believed to have fled toColombia before the operation w ushut down, authorities said.

Another central operative, WilsonD. Valdez, alto known as Christian"Tabby" Thillet, also of Elizabethremains in Union County Jail on $1.5million bail.

The Premiere Stages production of"Boy Gets Oirl" breaks new ground fordie play because it's the New Jerseyprofessional premier for the pUy,which has had a couple of amateur pro-ductions already.

"You don't know where die playwill go," said John Woolen, director ofPremiere Stages. "It starts with * blinddate. Theresa hasn't dated for a yearand a half, and she has a good time thefirst time, but mere's something abouthim dv>* IUSI isn't quite right The initialchemistry got them through the firstdate, and she blames it air on herself,which she regrets later. Tony doesn'ttake no for an answer, and he's deter-mined that she's going to be his girl-friend. His behavior borders on psy-chopathic.''

Wooten points out that it's not allheavy; Ihe production has some humorto H, and there are other characters,such as a humorous old pomogiaphicfilmmaker. By and large, though, theplay is seen from Theresa's perspec-tive, and it offers a scathing commen-tary on our society.

"When someone's being stalked, itdoesn't only affect them, it affect* thelives of people around them, and basicfreedoms can be taken away fromthem," said Wooten. "A lot of peopledon't take women seriously when theyMy they're being stalked. This is animportant play because it addresses theboundaries of the mate-female relation-ship, what's appropriate and what's notappropriate."

Rebecca Oilman, a Chicago-basedwriter, wrote the play, which was per-fbrmed in toe Manhattan Theater Club,and was selected as Tine Magazine's

Play of me Year in 2001. Oilman alsowrote "Spins** Into Butter." s daringplay that iddroast both prejudice andpolitically correct behavior

Thoagn this play was performedprior lo being presenini by PremiereStages, it share* several things in com-mon with the other two.

•They're three starkly differentptoya, and one thing they all share isthey're all premier* in one way oranother," said Wooten. "One was aworkshop, one was a premier, and onewas a New Jen*:,' premier. They allpresented opporcumtiei ice uwairigi>e n to see something diey've never seenin Jersey.

"The other thing is that they're allplays that accentuate the power of thehuman spirit.

"What me characters all have incommon is they've all bad an incredi-ble challenge to overcome. The centralcharacter in each of the three pieces isbasically a stranger in their own world,or land. Even though one's a drama,one's a comedy, and one's a thriller,''said Wooten.

Premiere Stage* joined force* withthe theater depsrtmect of Keen Univer-sity for this production, something thatPremiere will do once each year.

'This it the final equity productionof this season," Wooten said "In thefirst year, we were able to hit theground running and do a roll seasonwith lets than a yew of preparationlime. The univenity has bean extreme-ly supportive of our operation*. BobCole, vice president of univenity rela-tions, has gone above aad beyond tomake this a success. Because o f thestrong support the university gave, us,we were able to get two large grants tohelp us underwrite costs associatedwith the Premiere Stages Play Festi-val."

Wilde's hilarity is mastered by Shakespeare Theatre in 'Earnest9

ByRatkReesCorrespondent

The wicked confection currentlyonstage at the Shakespeare Theatre ofNew Jersey, Oscar Wilde's wildlysatirical "The Importance of BeingEarnest,' is so delicious that it's wormbreaking a diet for! Under TamaraHarvey's masterful direction, thisuproariously tangled web of alter egosand mistaken identities will have yourolling in the aisles. Never mind thatyou read the play in high school andfound it "boring*,'' seeing this comedyof manners in the flesh, with its acer-bicaUy witty one-liners and broadphysical comedy, is a testament to thegenius of Oscar Wilde.

Of course, the source of the hilarityis a highly improbable plot revolving

around two eligible bachelors, oneanxious to many, the other avoiding itlike the plague. John Worthing leads adouble life at "Jack" in the country and"Ernest" while he is in London, caus-ing comic confusion when be tries towoo the lovely aristocrat Gwendolyn.The mayhem multiplies in spadeswhen his friend, Algernon, cousin tosaid Gwendolyn, adopts the alias"Ernest" in order to visit Jack's win-some ward Cecily Cardew at Jack'scountry estate. When Jack shows upunannounced, their aliases areunmasked despite the duo's bestefforts, the two girls gang up on them,and the day Is saved only by the reve-lation of Jack's true parentage througha delightful coincidence.

As the two bachelors, Steve Wilson

and Gareth Saxe are nothing short ofsensational. Wilson's Algernon is thequintessential supercilious aristocratwho orders around his servants andfriends and would rather go broke thanget his hands dirty doing any kind ofwork. As Jack, Saxe is the perfect foil:somewhat insecure due to his unortho-dox and obscure birth, he dithers hesi-tantly in Algie'i presence and positive-ly swoons in the company of LadyBracknell and her daughter. CaralynKozlowski's Gwendolyn Fairfaxmatches Algie for vapidity. When sheblinks her blue eyes and tosses herblonde head, declaring that she wouldonly marry a man named Ernest, herihallowness is manifest. Her foil is thedarling, down-to-earth Cecily Cardew,played by Elena Shaddow with

adorable spit and vinegar. It's easy tosee why Algie falls in love with her atfirst glance; why she returns the feel-ing it a bit more problematic.

But it's really Jane Ahman as LadyBracknell who commandeers the pro-duction whenever she comes onstagelike a frigate under full sail. Just thetone of her voice tossing off Wilde'sstinging lingers conveys the disdainand haughtiness this woman feels foranyone not of her class.

Susan Greenhill's droll portrayal ofCecily's homely and hapless gov-erness, Miss Prism, and Davis Hall'srather goofy Rev. Chasuble add to Ihehilarity. And as Algie's and Jack's ser-vants, Richard Waddingham and BrianSchilb display the wisdom of the lowerclasses as they watch their betters

make absolute fools of themselves.Cameron Anderson has designed an

interesting set reminiscent of AubreyBcardsley's flowing lines; sinuousgreenery looming over.Algie's flatreveals glimpses of the garden atJack's borne in the country and librarybooks in the morning room of themanor house. Michael McAleer'sbeautiful costumes and Steven L.Beckers sound design highlight Eng-land in the late Victorian era, at do theBritish accents mastered and main-tained by all the actors.

In his day, Oscar Wilde wts a con-troversial character whosethreatened to overthadew hi* |In "The Importance of Being Earnest,"he reminds us how foolish to baseone'! judgments on status and appear-

ance and how ruinous to personal rela-tionships of the most intimate sort canbe. That's s lesson that never goes outof fashion!

Performances of "The Importanceof Being Earnest" are Tuesdays at 7:30p.m. and Wednesdays through Satur-days at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 2 p.m. andSundays at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. throughOct. 2. There are no performances onSept 27 or 28. The Shakespeare The-atre of New Jersey's main stage islocated on the Drew Univenity cam-pus in Madison.

Fat Tuesdays Cajun Bar & OrlllIn search of lunch with some bite to it, and maybe some

Southern delicacies, we headed south. Exit 135 on theGarden State Parkway, to be precise. Located on MainStreet In Rahway, Fat Tuesdays Cajun Bar & Grill brings s bKof the French Quarter to the redeveloping downtown.

We started with the Bourbon Street Sampler to get a tasteof several of the appetizers, popcorn shrimp, gator bites andstuffed olives. All three also are offered as their ownappetizers.

The Gator Bites are served with a side of swamp sauceand the Lolziana Cajun Popcorn Shrimp with a Creole mayo.But our favorite of the bunch was definitely the OhIOhlOlivenos, olives stuffed with salsa, jack and Cheddar cheesoand rolled in spicy breadcrumbs.

For our main dish, we had the Creole Cordon Blue, ablackened chicken topped with ham and cheese in s garliccream sauce, and the Chicken and AndouHle SausageJumbalaya, which Includes chunks of chicken breast andAndoullle sausage mixed with tomatoes, onions, peppersand rice In a spicy Creole sauce. My companion couldn'tstop talking about the Andoullle sausage and we couldn't getenough of the stuffed olives.

And where else can you kick back with a beer and munchon some gator bites?

Opened in April 2003, Fat Tuesdays might best be knownas one of the local nightspots since The Waiting Roomclosed last year. But there's more to Fat Tuesdays than justthe bar and the occasional bands on weekends. That wouldbe the dining room.

Fat Tuesdays has seen some changes to Its menu sincefirst coming on the scene last year. Some of the offeringsmight frighten the unadventurous diner, which owner MauriceFh/nn concedes led to some "Jerseyfylng* of the menu. Butfor every gator or crawfish that you might only find at FatTuesdays, there are the standard chicken tenders, burgersand sandwiches, including cheesesteaks as well as severalNew Orleans-style sandwiches.

The kitchen at Fat Tuesdays Cajun Bar & Grill, located at1467 Main Street in downtown Rahway, Is open untilmidnight on Friday and Saturday, 9 p.m. on Sunday toTuesday, and 11 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday.

Whatever became of TamaraTomorrow? In the early '70, this localtelevision boat, in her antennae andspace suit, made cheery predictions ofhow exciting the future was going tobe. Her sudden disappearance from thep.clic eye was one of the great myster-irs of the Philadelphia area. Three fansof Tamara, all grown up, approaching40, and disenchanted that the "future"U not quite what she predicted, decideto go in search of this "Delaware ValleyOretaOarbo... because there's nothingso reassuring as the past's view of thefuture"

"The play reminds me of the classic'Wizard of Ox,'" said director WendyLiscow, "with the three friends settingoff to find the wizard, someone whowill solve all their problems, andrestore their faith in themselves.

• Whan being dropped off, exit thebut and walk 10 giant etepe away(ton the but. Keep a aafe diatancebetween you and the but.

• Always cross the street in frontof the but, never behind the tchoolbut.

• Be aware of the street traffic•round you. Driver* are required tofollow certain rules of the road con-cerning achool buses, however, not alldo. Protect yourself and watch out!

• Bullying often takes place on theachool bus. Let kid* know that if theytee someone being bullied, or are bul-lied themselves, they can talk to you.

According to the National YouthViolence Prevention Resource Cen-ter, almost 30 percent of youth in theUsJled State*, or more than 5.7 mil-lion, are estimated to be involved inbullying at either a bully, t target ofbullying, or both. In a Meant nationalewVey of atudents in gatdtt atx to 10,13 percent reported bullying others,II percent reported being the target olbullies, and another 6 percent saidthat they bullied others and were Nil-ued themselves.

•Talk to your children about theirday. Aak your children if they seeanyone bullied, if they are bullied.Look for warning signs, such as *sudden drop in grades, loa* of friend*,or torn clothing.

•Visit school in person: Talk to theprincipal or counselor. Explain thesituation and give them a chance todeal with the problem.

• Request meeting with parent*:the school doesn't stop the beaak to meet at the tchool ibully's parents. Make themwhat's going on and ask themwith it Immediately.

• Oat police involved: Finally, ifyou have teen no change*, go to thepolice. Thi* step rarely hat to betaken, but it can be effective if neces-sary. Going to the police doesn'tmean you want to have the childarrested; think of the police a* anoth-er mediator, one the bully'* parent*may be more likely to respond to.

Walking or biking can presentanother eatery hazard for childrenduring the achool year. Than it no"right" age for kids to start walking orbiking to school alone or with afriend. Each family needs to considerthe maturity of their child, how manybu»y street* have to be crossed, and iftheae street* have light* or crossingguard*.

• Map out with your children aaafe way for them to walk to achoolor to the but atop. Avoid busy roadsand intersections.

The staff isalways interested in and enthusiasticabout enrolling new students, even ifyou have little or no dancing experi-ence

The staff has run and unique waysof teaching students proper dancetechnique and terminology, whichinclude many different dance activi-ties and game*. Academy of Dancehas a very happy cheerful and

relaxed atmosphere that's gearedtoward s fun and stable dance educa-tion for your child. The non-compet-itive format instills a positive atti-tude among the atudenu, encourag-ing the idea thai dance is fun andexciting, not stressful and intimidat-ing. Although the students do notcompete, the staff still gives the atu-dents the opportunity to perform atseveral different venues during theyear, such si "Six Flags Great Adven-ture's Annual Dance Fett."Comingup in September will be 1 perform-ance at Union's "Feast of St.Michael." The teacher create dancesthat will challenge your child a* they

Set a regular schedule for homework this yearIf getting your child to do their

homework it like attempting to nail gel-atin to a tree, then this article it for you.Avoiding homework is an act for tomekids. Many of us with they would applytheir creativity and ingenuity to theactual homework rather than spendingtheir energies in avoiding it. You aa aparent can help your child refocut theirtalents and apply them to their studiesHere are a few pointer*.

First, if the key to real estate it loca-tion, than the key to homework it struc-ture. Designate a time and place forhomework and stick to it Homeworkshould be done at die tame time and intht tame distraction-free zone everyday. Avoid tune* that could potentiallybe derailed by more attractive outsideactivities. And make sure that there isdown time between homework and bedtime. No one likes to go to bed thinkingabout work. Some practical suggestionsfor tune* include immediately after

achool, one hour before dinner orimmediately after dinner. A child's bed-room may not be the best place to dohomework. Today children'* bedroom*are filled with televisions, computersand video games. Pick a location free oftheae temptation* and nun off their cellphone*. Hiving a consistent scheduleand providing a distraction free zonewill go a long way in helping your childform good study habits.

Second, get your child a homeworkplanner and teach them how to use it.Many schools offer children planners oryou can pick up an inexpensive one ityew local office supply store. Learning towrite down homework and plan for testsand paper* is a skill. Children need to betaught how to do this. Sit down with yourchild and review their assignments withdiem before they start on their home-work. Ask them what will be easy forthem and which ones will be harder. Offerto help them or to prepare for the harder

assignments Dont wait to be asked.Third, be present and supportive.

Check in with your chtk! while they areworking on their homework. When they

effort*. Children who avoid homeworkoften do not feel competent in the aca-demic world. Showing your appreciationfor their efforta and being positive goes along way toward building self-confidence.

And fourth, reward your child'sefforts. Completed homework shouldbe rewarded with tome valued activity.For younger children, the reward maybe time playing a game or reading abook with mom or dad For older kids,the reward may be time on the comput-er, talking on the phone with a friend or

watching a favorite televiaion ahow.Avoid giving candy or food a* a reward.

Whatever the reward is, it ahouldreflect what is valuable to your childand it should only be allowed oncehomework it completed.

Finally, if you have not had a routinefor homework in your house before,don't expect (hit new demand to bewelcomed and embraced immediately.A little resistance on the part of yourchild it natural. It ahould take about twoweeks of consistency and persistenceon your part to establish a pattern forsuccess. Once established you indyour child should experience lettfighting and more compliance withhomework.

REAL ESTATEFirst impressions are everythingWeichert, Rotltori remino* tellers

thM after • prospective buyer seat •homei landacaping, the very next areaHat come* into view it the home's

Jmt *• Ae eye* ire the windows toto thetoul, the threshold is the reflec-tion of the hone. "The home's exterioris certainly the first Impression vWtonhave of • home," slid Domini* Pre-vete, regional vice president TorWeichert, Realtors. "Ai • seller, youwant prospective buyers to want to seeyour entire home. It's so important tocreate a warm and inviting entrance thatnukes people want to see mom."

David Douglas, branch manager ofWeichert's Roxbury office, said aftercleaning up the' landscape, setting thestage for a grand entrance is esaential.

"Let the sunshine in by gstting rid ofheavy drapes, have a window companywash windows and add a fresh coat ofpaint," said Douglas. "Set the stagewith iresh flowers. You will feel greatand so will your buyers."

"The front door is extremely impor-tant for setting the tone of the house,"said Mike Machinski, sales associatewith weichert, Realtor's Ridgewoodoffice.

Machmski suggests cither repaint-ing or replacing worn fiont doors. Healso advises that a well-lit foyer isimportant "If tot entrance foyer isdark, perhaps a new front door withglass to let in light might do the trick."

Donna Waiters, sales associate withWeichert's East Brunswick office, saidshe asks her clients to think of buyers asbeing invited dinner guests and not justpeople who may purchase the home.

"People should be looked at as guestinvited to a celebration,'' Mid Waiters."It should be a welcoming and relaxingevent I remind my clients that theyloved the home when they bought it andthat they should keep the excitementalive now to help the future owner loveit as much u they did"

Warters recommends the entrancebe bright and cheery and very sparse.

"Get rid of piles of books and mag-azines," said Warters. "3 suggest foyer,walls be painted white or cream andreplace torn wallpaper with fresh paintAlso, floors should be glistening sndkeepiht lights on." Entrance flooring itequally important as welU.

Machinski advises replacing old.dated foyer tiles with new modem tiles."Remember, (be foyer will set the tonefor the interior of the property," saidMachinski. "You want the buyer towant to see the rest of the house."

warters advises her clients to place anew and clean welcome mat at the out-side doorstep and to place a clean areacarpet on the foyer floor.

Waiters, Machinski, and Douglasstrofiftty susscft invMtPB sncuoociy*cutting the lawn and getting rid of toysand other clutter outside. They alsoadvise adding fresh mulch where need-

ed and seasonal plants or flowers alongpathways to the home.

"If a buyer gets s good, warm feel-ing when looking at the property andexterior of die house, chances are hewill be willing to overlook certainimperfections on the interior," saidMachinski. "If the exterior needs afresh coat of paint, do it You will getback more than it cpett."

The entrance ii not just a transitionfrom the outdoors to indoor*. Invitingentrances are the first impressions buy-e n receive whan entering a home. Thatimpression needs to be warm and wel-coming to make visitors feel at home.
