efforts near the Absecon city boat
ramp, police said.

Author on a roll with
Fred and Ethel Noyes book
By STEVE PRISAMENT
Staff Writer
GALLOWAY – The book launch
party for “Fred & Ethel Noyes of
Smithville, New Jersey – The Artist
and the Entrepreneur” was a huge
success, according to author Judy
Courter.
“It was an awesome celebration of
the legacy of Fred and Ethel Noyes,”
Courter said Tuesday, July 2. “Ethel
and Fred would have been proud.”
The event at Smithville Inn
Wednesday, June 26 brought
together current owners of Historic
Smithville and a host of characters
who knew, worked for and were
friends of the Noyes who developed
the town and its landmark restaurant.
Behind the receptionist desk at
the inn is a picture of the Noyes and
a copy of the song “Old Historic
Smithville Inn” by Bill Hoch of
Absecon.
“Bill Hoch sang ‘Old Historic
Smithville Inn’ at our party,” Courter said. “I read a letter from Gov.
Brendan Byrne. It was a complete
recognition of the Noyes.”
Since the book’s publication
early this year, Courter has been on
a whirlwind tour of appearances,
speeches and book signings.
“I was a history major in college,”
Courter told The Current. “But I
never thought I’d write a book.”
She said she was always a numbers person.

More than 150 family,
friends and guests of the graduates joined in the fun.
Rhonda Lowery, executive
director of the Atlantic Cape
May Workforce Investment
Board, delivered the keynote
address. She strongly encouraged graduates to follow their
dreams and always strive to
achieve their best.
Lowery said by earning
their high school diplomas,
graduates have proven to the
world they are capable of
accomplishing goals they set
for themselves.

specializes in saving the
large and very affectionate
breed of cat. The organization’s web page is located
at www.omcrescue.org.
The workshop’s guest
speaker is Dr. Hope Moynihan of Shore Veterinarians
North. She will talk about
the importance of keeping a
cat, vaccinations, grooming, declawing, indoor-outdoor cats and nutrition.
Topics will also include
how pet adoption benefits
the local community.
Attendees will also have
chance to make toys for the

member of Girl Scout
Troop 7193, came up with
the idea for the workshop
because she likes helping
animals and wanted to help
her aunt’s rescue organization.
Wilkinson also needed
to create a project that
benefits the community as
part of her requirements for
earning a Girl Scout Silver
Award. Wilkinson has been
involved in scouting for
seven years.
Even though many cat
owners feel they are knowledgeable enough to be able
to properly care for their
pets, there some things
that pet owners need to
be aware of, Wilkinson said. They include
vaccines that you need to
keep up with annually,
the importance of keeping
a cat indoors for their
safety, and the option of

help save taxes for the local
community.
Wilkinson hopes to
“make 300 cat toys that
will be donated to Only
Maine Coons Rescue so
they can sell them and raise
money to save more cats
from kill shelters, educate
current and future cat owners about the negatives of
declawing and get the word
out about adoption.”
Wilkinson doesn’t plan
on becoming a veterinarian
when she grows up.
“But I love to help
animals in any way I can,”
she said. “I might do what
my aunt does, which is
to volunteer for a rescue.
Right now I’m thinking
of being a teacher but that
could change.”
However, her willingness
to help cats and animals
won’t diminish with time.

ABSECON – A would-be
burglar was left empty-handed
Monday morning when an
Absecon homeowner returned
just in time to catch the thief
walking out with an armful
of goods.
According to the police
department, a Kessler Avenue resident returned home at
8:22 a.m. on July 8 to find a
strange vehicle parked in his
driveway.
The homeowner immediately called police, but then
noticed the male suspect
leaving the house with his
arms full of the owner’s
property.
After a brief exchange, the
suspect dropped the goods,
jumped into his car and drove
south on Shore Road, the
Absecon Police said.
The suspect is described as
a light-skinned male, possibly
Hispanic. He is 5-foot-8 with
a medium to heavy build with
brown eyes and a dark crew
cut. He appeared to be in his
mid-30s, police said. He
was last seen wearing a t-top.
The suspect drove away
in a bright red sedan of an
unknown make or model. The
vehicle has scrapes and dents
all the way down passenger
side as if it sideswiped a fixed
object, police said.
Police recovered evidence
at the scene and the investigation is continuing.
Anyone with information
should call Absecon Detective Leigh Gadd Jr at (609)
641-0667, ext. 216 or Crime
Stoppers at (800) 658-TIPS.
Galloway burglars get past locked car doors
GALLOWAY – Just locking your car isn’t
good enough any more.
“This agency has responded to numerous
motor vehicle burglaries within the past week,”
Galloway Police Detective Sgt. Donna Higbee
said Tuesday, July 2. “We are asking for the
media’s assistance with getting this information
out because all of the vehicles were accessed
via a lock-tool.”
All of the vehicles that were entered were
locked by the owners and secured to the best
of their ability, according to Higbee.
“Unknown suspects utilized either a manu-
facturer’s key or a lock tool to enter all vehicles
and remove various items including GPSs,
sunglasses, iPods and cellular phones,” she said.
“Residents should not to leave any items of value inside vehicles when they are unattended.”
None of the vehicles were damaged as a
result of the burglaries, according to Higbee,
but a large number of valuables have been
reported stolen.

The state Department of
Transportation agreed to provide $215,000 to Atlantic County for inspection services for
paving the final phase of the
Tilton Road improvement project between Burton Avenue in
Northfield and Fire Road in Egg
Harbor Township.
With the July 2 approval of
a grant from the state’s Transportation Trust Fund, the county
can move forward in the process
of awarding a contract, according to a statement issued from
county spokesperson Linda
Gilmore. The county previously awarded a $1.44 million
contract to Arawak Paving of
Hammonton on June 25. That
contract however must also be
approved by the DOT.
“We remain at the mercy
of other entities,” said Atlantic County Executive Dennis
Levinson. “Because this project
is being funded with federal and
state moneys, we are required
to follow their procedures, not
ours.”
Tilton Road is a major thoroughfare that receives even
greater use during the summer
months for those coming to the
county’s shore communities.
According to Levinson, the
final paving of Tilton Road
was planned to be completed
before summer, but it was delayed several times – first by
Hurricane Sandy with crews
being sent north to areas that
sustained greater damage than
Atlantic County, and then by
utility relocation work.
“We’re as anxious as our
residents and the traveling pub-
lic to complete the Tilton Road
paving,” he said.
The county expects to award
a contract later this month or
early next month, provided it receives authorization to proceed,
the statement explained. Work
could then commence as early
as late August. The contract
stipulates a maximum of three
months for completion of all
work with substantial penalties
for delays.
The repaving project will
include the replacement of a
significant amount of concrete
curbing, to be done in phases
during weekday hours, but all
paving will be done during the
evening and overnight, 8 p.m.
and 6 a.m., Monday through Friday, to minimize delays and
inconvenience to the public.
Schedules will be adjusted
for holidays. The roadway will
remain open throughout this
period, with the use of alternating traffic lanes. Access to local
businesses will be maintained.
Once it is completed, Atlantic County will have successfully repaved the entire length
of Tilton Road, from Shore
Road to Route 30.

Mother allegedly helped suspect escape
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP – Police are searching
for a 23-year-old Mays Landing man in connection with
numerous charges after he
allegedly attempted to hit an
Egg Harbor Township police
officer with his vehicle Thursday, July 4.
According to police, at approximately 4:16 p.m. Egg
Harbor Township Police Officer Kevin Devlin attempted
to stop a black SUV on the
Black Horse Pike in the area
of English Creek Avenue. The
driver pulled to the side of the
road, but instead of coming to
a stop, he accelerated to a high
rate of speed, passing numerous vehicles in the westbound
shoulder of the Black Horse
Pike.
Devlin, who was riding
a motorcycle, opted not to
pursue the vehicle due to the
reckless nature of his driving,
police said. He ran the license
plate through the system, and
the vehicle came up as registered to Danny Roberts of
Primrose Court in the Woodlands, Hamilton Township; the
officer headed there.
While checking the area for
the vehicle, Devlin saw a black
SUV coming in his direction.
The SUV accelerated directly
at him, police said, and Devlin
had to jump from the police
motorcycle to avoid being
struck.
Uninjured, he got back on
the motorcycle to attempt to
locate the SUV, along with
Hamilton Township police
officers. The SUV was found
abandoned a short distance
away; the driver had fled. A
search of the area failed to
locate the driver.
Police described Roberts
as a light-skinned black man
about 6 feet 5 inches tall, and
approximately 250 pounds,
with numerous tattoos on his
neck, hands and arms.
Warrants were issued for
eluding police and aggravated
assault on a law enforcement
officer. Roberts is also facing numerous motor vehicle
charges and is wanted on
additional warrants by the
Atlantic County Sheriff’s
Department.
An investigation into the
incident determined that Roberts was picked up by his
mother, Sherry Johnson, 46, of
Mays Landing in the taxi she
drives. Johnson was arrested
If you have a pain pill problem or an opioid
addiction, Suboxone is the NEWEST and best
medication most commonly being used today
for this problem.
If you need help getting off pain pills or
drugs, and would like to do this without having
to take time away from work or from your
family, then this information will help you.
Congress now allows drug dependency to be
treated right in the privacy of a community
physicians office. Thats right, immediate help,
one on one with your physician. A major benefit
has been to get more patients into treatment.
Specifically, those patients wanting more
privacy and confidentiality. SUBOXONE
may help you, as it has helped thousands
of patients to break the grip of being dependent
on or addicted to OPIOIDS.
You will benefit from Suboxone if you are
using pain pills and want to stop but can’t; if you
are using drugs and want to stop; or you get too
sick to stick with quitting the use of pain pills or
substances.
When you are prescribed Suboxone you will
no longer have to worry about prolonged painful
withdrawal from pain pills or drugs. Suboxone
is a relatively new drug that has helped tens of
thousands of persons and families break the
vicious cycle of drug abuse. Now doctors are
allowed to prescribe Suboxone to help persons
with dependency, withdrawal symptoms, cravings
for pills or drugs, or a history of abuse of opioids
(pain pills). Please call for an appointment, we

Well Boutique and Spa and chef Luke Palladino for “Yoga Fest,” a fundraising event aimed at supporting
The Women’s Center on Thursday, July 11.
The evening event will feature an outdoor yoga practice led by Grace and Glory Yoga Studio owner
Allie Conover, complimentary chair massages courtesy of the staff at Bee Well, organic treats and more.
A suggested donation of $15 for the activities and proceeds from purchases made inside the store will
benefit The Women’s Center’s PALS Program: Peace; A Learned Solution, a therapeutic program for
children and their families who have experienced or witnessed domestic violence. PALS recognizes that
violence within a family can be a very traumatic situation for children. It works to restore the individual
control many children lose when they experience violence first hand.
Any purchase will include a gift of yoga classes and packages.
The event is 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the store, 507 New Road. Yoga attire is acceptable. Kids are welcome.
Please RSVP via email at [email protected] or call (609) 926-3095.

Galloway parade grand marshal Smigliani lives what he stands for
By STEVE PRISAMENT
Staff Writer
GALLOWAY – Wearing
purple for the four Purple Hearts
he earned during a 10-day period in Vietnam, 4th of July Parade
grand marshal Marco Polo Smigliani said it was his privilege to
be recognized.
“What’s important to me,”
Smigliani said in an interview
Friday, July 5, “I earned the
respect of the people who chose
me. It’s not about just waving to
the crowd. It’s what I represent
– a tradition that dates back to
George Washington.”
He said he wanted to thank
parade co-founder and Veterans
Advisory Board member Ike
Rucker and the officials and
Parade Committee members
who granted him the honor to
be in the parade.
Smigliani, who lives in Egg
Harbor Township with his wife
Donna, said the honor was his.
“I’ve lived the American
dream – the American dream as
an immigrant,” Smigliani said.
“America gives you the opportunity to live with dignity – the
dignity to make a living.”
He said the greatest gift he got
from his parents after life itself
was their bringing him to America when he was 10 years old.
Smigliani said he worked
hard most of his life, starting
by doing jobs that needed to be
done in his native Italy.
“I’ve been making pizza
since I was 12,” he said. “You
can’t expect instantaneous results. You have to sacrifice.
You have to persevere. Life is
not easy, but it never was. My
mother was in a detention camp
when she was 14 years old.”
Noyes

“I was very comfortable
balancing my checkbook,”
Courter said. “I did consumer
credit counseling at Family
Service. I got people out of
credit card debt. I really loved
it.”
When she was planning to
leave Family Service, she met
her husband Joe for dinner at
Fred & Ethel’s Lantern Light
Tavern, where she became
fixated by a picture of Ethel
Noyes.
“She was an amazing woman,” Courter said. “I asked,
‘Has anybody written about
her?’ No. Somebody must.
You must.”
She said researching and
writing about the Noyes was
a very different enterprise for
her.
“It was a volunteer project,” Courter said. “There was
no deadline. No paycheck.”
Shortly after publication,
she appeared at the Atlantic
County Historical Society.
There was a book signing
at a Smithville Inn Sunday
brunch.
“I sold the books out of
my car,” Courter said. “I sold
them at the Wawa where I’d
bump into people. People love
Fred and Ethel. Many don’t
associate that they founded
Smithville, Ram’s Head Inn
and the Noyes Museum of
Art.”
Courter was born and
raised in upstate New York,
near Saratoga Springs.
“I moved here in 1972
Smigliani said that he retired in 2001 after being in an
automobile accident. He sold
his restaurant, Marco Polo’s
Pizzeria and Ristorante in Pleasantville, and lives on a “small
pension.”
“The good Lord is saving me
for something,” Smigliani said.
“I help veterans.”
He said he does what he can
to help veterans and their families and shares his tragic story
from 1960s Vietnam.
“I don’t shy away from the
story,” Smigliani said. “Though
it’s painful for me, it really
needs to be told. We have veterans now serving three, four,
five tours of duty while we sit
at home enjoying ourselves –
removed from it all. The public
doesn’t know the sacrifice that
men and women are making.”
Before his distinguished career in the United States Marine
Corps, Smigliani had served in
the Merchant Marines starting
at age 17.
“I was on a ship carrying
ammunition – shells, bombs,
tanks and trucks - to Vietnam,”
Smigliani said. “I met some
Marines – it was 1968 – they
took me on a jeep on patrol with
them. I make friends easy. Well,
they got into a small firefight
and rushed me back to the ship.”
When he returned to his home
in the Hyde Park neighborhood
of Boston he decided to join the
Marines.
“I felt a duty to serve my
country,” Smigliani said. “My
family comes to the United
States for more than 100 years.
We came from a small village
140 miles east of Rome, Poggiofiorito in the Abruzzo region
of Italy. We lived right on the
Adriatic Sea. You could see the
Adriatic Sea from my grandmother’s back yard.”
Poggiofiorito and the Smigliani family suffered through
World War II.
The nearby, nine-day Battle
of the Moro River was called
“the Stalingrad of the West,”
Smigliani said. British Prime
Minister Winston Churchill and
General Bernard Montgomery
came to see how bad it was.
“My grandfather, Marco, was
killed on a landmine Dec. 6,
1943. He was the first civilian
killed,” Smigliani said. “They
were hiding in caves and he
snuck out to look for food. He
laid there three weeks before it
was safe for the others to come
out.”
His Aunt Albina, 18, and Uncle Guido, 20, also died during
the war.
“Three of my grandmother’s
brothers were blown up – killed
by landmines after World War
II,” Smigliani said.
So the young man who’d
earned his American citizenship
at age 15 wound up with the 1st
Battalion, 9th Marines in Dewey
Canyon, the last major offensive
by the United States in the Vietnam War.
“We were called ‘The Walking Dead.’ On the wall in
Washington there are just over
800 names from our group,”
Smigliani said. “It’s personal.
It’s not just my uncle. There
were so many others – personal
friends.”
His ordeal of injuries began
Feb. 23, 1969.
“We were in a battle. I got
hit by shrapnel in my back and
the back of my neck and head,”
Smigliani said. “I said it was a
with my husband’s business,”
Courter said. “I didn’t personally meet the Noyes. We lived
on Main Street in Port Republic. We bought the house
that was Ethel’s sister’s. Lois
Lingelbach Muller and her
family had lived there.”
Joe Courter is an architect
in Tuckerton.
He moved his family to
Port Republic around 1990 –
moving from New York City
for his new job.
“It took some getting used
to,” Courter said. “There were
more people in our apartment
building in New York than
there were in Port Republic.
We were very pleased with
Port Republic. Living on
Main Street, we’d walk to
the beach; and we raised our
children.”
During their years in Port
Republic he was mayor for
a decade. There they raised
Justin, now 44; Amanda, 43;
and Catherine, 39.
The Courter family
frequently visited Historic
Smithville.
“We went often; we took
the kids,” Courter said. “Quail
Hill was a museum to us. We
entered the Christmas wreath
contest with the Port historical society.”
She said her husband met
the Noyes in his capacity as
mayor.
“I saw the Noyes around,”
Courter said. “But I could not
say I knew them.”
She said she interviewed
about 80 people for her book.
“I was calling complete
strangers,” Courter said. “I
never wrote before. Yet almost everybody said, ‘Yes.’ It
was a wonderful experience.”
The Noyes were a distinctive couple, she said.
“Ethel: it was her vision
that created Smithville and
Ram’s Head,” Courter said.
“Fred: It was his willingness
to let Ethel take the lead and
support her all the way. He
admired her.”
She would get his OK on
important decisions, Courter
said.
“They really, really were
a team,” Courter said. “His
art – he was constantly
drawing; my husband collects
Fred’s art. We have a lot of
his pieces. Fred would paint
and draw at home at work at
Smithville.”
They did a lot for others,
Courter said.
“Ethel recognized talent
and people thrived,” Courter
said. “One of the first people
was Catherine White. In 1956
her husband died and she
didn’t know what to do. The
doctor said to get out. She met
Ethel. Ethel took her to the
general store and said, ‘This is
yours.’ She learned purchasing, etc. – she did things she
didn’t know she could do.”
Ethel constantly worked,
Courter said. She did anything
that needed to be done.
“I feel I know them very
well,” Courter said. “I was
drawn to them for some reason, and I still am.”
She said it might be better
that she did not know them
personally.
“It would have affected
my objectivity,” Courter said.
“My objectivity is enhanced
by learning from other people
and newspaper articles.”
small scratch – but they didn’t
seem to think so. I refused to
be medevaced. I didn’t want
to leave.”
Then his unit was ambushed
on March 4.
“I was shot in the upper left
arm – the bullet remains in my
arm,” Smigliani said. “I sat at
the side patching myself up.
There was a dead Marine behind
me and in front of me was a
buddy, a mentor of mine, Billy
Northning from Alabama.”
As he moved forward to help
his friend, Smigliani said a rocket propelled grenade went off.
“It hit my lower (left) arm,”
Smigliani said. “There was
blood everywhere; meat in
my face. You could see right
through my arm. I stumbled and
crawled back to where I’d been
patching myself up a bit.”
He started tending to himself
again, Smigliani said, when
he felt something hot slash by
his head.
“There was a sniper just outside with a bead on us,” Smigliani said. “Our corpsman,
another Alabaman, Johnny
Moore, picked up the dead
Marine’s rifle – an M16 – and
shot 15 or so rounds where
the enemy fire had come from.
There was a thud as the sniper
dropped to the ground dead.
Johnny Moore saved my life.”
Smigliani’s mentor, Northning died of a gunshot wound
to his chest and was among
the dead and wounded the
American’s carried from the
battle scene to cover in a dense
fog that prevented helicopters
from bringing supplies and
airlifting out the wounded
and dead.
“It was monsoon season,”
Smigliani said. “It rained
like the world was going to end. When the
helicopters came, the
enemy expected them
and all hell broke loose.
Somebody was helping
me to the helicopter and
a bomb went off. I went
flying through the air. I
had shrapnel in my legs.
Blood poured from my
nose and ears from the
concussion. That’s why
I’m deaf today; I have
four hearing aids.”
Smigliani finally got
on the helicopter and
made it to safety. Doctors performed surgery
on his arm in Da Nang
and he was sent for more
surgery in Japan.

He said he’s disturbed by the

“If American people don’t

Pleasantville’s Jasmine Solorzano wins
Arthur F. Foreman Memorial Award
Staff Writer
PLEASANTVILLE – Washington Avenue Elementary School
fifth-grade student Jasmine Solorzano has been honored with the
46th annual Arthur F. Foreman
Memorial Award for 2013 for her
demonstration of consideration,
effort and sportsmanship.
Soloranzo received the honor
as part of South Main Street’s
Stepping Up program held at the
end of the school year.
She was surrounded by members of her family, members of
the Foreman family and school
officials when she received the
honor.
John Garrity, the first principal
of South Main Street School
and a retired Pleasantville superintendent, has provided a video
presentation of Foreman since the
award was first given out in 1967.
Foreman was a beloved South
Main Street teacher when he
died at 26.
His son, Arthur Foreman, was
eight weeks old when his father
died and has become a vice president and senior account executive
at Fidelity Investments.
Foreman, and his mother,
Christine, have attended each
award ceremony.
Foreman presented the coveted award plaque to Solorzano.
The plaque honors his father and
continues his legacy. Foreman’s
wife, Taylor, and their two sons,
Art Jr. and John, participated in
the memorial ceremony also.

Allergy shots can be a lifesaver for people who have trouble
avoiding the stuff to which they are allergic. Unfortunately
there are only three ways to treat an allergy, avoid it,
medications or allergy shots. In many patients there is no
simple answer. In fact many people, despite their best efforts
to avoid their allergies, still have symptoms and in even
more people the allergy medications cause them bad side

Karen Carpenter had only just begun
AT LARGE
with Tom Williams
Anniversaries are all around
us. There are birthday anniversaries, wedding anniversaries and
anniversaries of employment.
Some anniversaries make
news.
For example, September will
mark the 150th anniversary of
Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address
and they will recognize the occasion with ceremonies at the Gettysburg National Military Park.
In November, newspapers
and television news will be filled
with features and documentaries
on the 50th anniversary of the
assassination of President John
F. Kennedy. There will undoubtedly be more discussions
about what really happened that
afternoon in Dallas.
April marked the 50th anniversary of the daytime drama,
“General Hospital,” and the
show – one of the few soap operas to survive – has celebrated
by bringing back a lot of former
characters.
It was 30 years ago in September that Egg Harbor Township
High School opened.
Anthony Kennedy, the Supreme Court Justice many think
is the deciding vote in the frequent 5-4 votes by the court, is
celebrating his 25th year on the
high court. He was appointed by
Ronald Reagan.
It was 40 years ago that the
last United States soldiers left
Vietnam. That same year Ron
Blomberg of the New York
Yankees became Major League
Baseball’s first designated hitter.
It was also 40 years ago that Secretariat won the Triple Crown.
The year 2013 also marks the
75th anniversary of the March of
Dimes, established by President
Franklin Roosevelt, and the
debut of Superman in the comic
books.
This year also marks the 30th
anniversary of the death of Karen
Carpenter.
You remember her, she and
her brother, Richard, made up the
Carpenters, one of the most successful singing groups of the late
1970s and early 1980s. Actually,
Karen did most of the singing.
She even frequently overdubbed
her own voice as background and
harmony voices on their records.
Richard was mostly a songwriter
and arranger.
The death of a pop singer
probably doesn’t merit being
included with presidential assassinations and the end of wars.
But her death is a sad and yet
educational story.
Karen and her brother signed
a record deal in 1965, when she
was 15. Originally, she was the
group’s drummer. In fact, in a
1975 Playboy magazine poll,
she was selected the best rock
drummer of the year. But the
group needed a lead singer and
they were all pleasantly surprised
when she filled that role.
The group had many big hits
– “Close to You,” “Top of the
World,” and “Please Mr. Postman” all were No. 1 hits. There
were 10 others that made the Top
10 and nearly every one of their
records reached the Top 40. As
recently as 2008 – 25 years after
her death – she was listed among
the 100 greatest singers of all
time by Rolling Stone.
She had died at age 32.
Karen Carpenter was only
about 5 feet 4 inches tall, and
she was a little overweight as a
child. It made her a bit self-conscious. Then, when she became
somewhat of a celebrity with her
first few recordings, music critics
and columnists started to notice
her and write about her. A few of
them referred to her as “chubby.”
Quickly, her weight became
an obsession. She developed
anorexia nervosa and her weight
eventually dropped to less than
90 pounds. Nobody called her
chubby anymore.
Karen spent time in a hospital
trying to recover and regained
about 30 pounds, largely through
an intravenous drip. Coming
out of the hospital, she seemed
happy and on her way to getting
her career back on track.
But about a month before her
33rd birthday, she collapsed in
her parents’ home. Twenty minutes later she was pronounced
dead of “heartbeat irregularities
brought on by chemical imbalances associated with anorexia
nervosa.”
Karen Carpenter had a
smooth, easy style. Her voice
had a deep residence not found
in most female vocalists. She had
a slight jazz feel to her performances. When you listen to her
songs and know her story, you
feel frustrated about all the great
music she could have given us
over the last three decades.
Many also feel that way about
Elvis, about James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Jim Morrison,
Frankie Lymon, Sam Cooke
and other entertainers who died
at relatively young ages. Just
imagine the songs and movies
they could have made.
Although she was focused
on her weight most of her early
life, some of those “chubby”
comments she read in magazines
and newspapers seemed to really
hurt. And, quite frankly, they
played a role in her eventual
death.
The death of Karen Carpenter
did a lot to bring anorexia and
similar eating disorders into
stronger focus. Young people
learned about it. Parents were
more aware about the warning
signs.
But her death should also
make us all aware about how
important it is to be careful about
what we say about others – particularly about their appearance.
You never know what is going
on in somebody’s mind, how
your criticisms might affect
them.
It is very likely that some
cheap shots in print accelerated
the death of Karen Carpenter and
created an anniversary this year
most of us wish we didn’t have
to recognize.

A plague on both of their houses
By JOE WILKINS
Columnist
Sometimes I don’t know
which is worse, the egomaniacal lunacy of guys like Anthony
Weiner and Elliott Spitzer or the
vicious selfishness of guys like
Ted Cruz and Eric Cantor.
For the politically obtuse, two
of those whackos are Democrats
and the other two are Republicans. All four are a disgrace to
the country, individually and
collectively, although for different reasons.
Weiner and Spitzer are formerly rising stars of the Democratic left. Weiner was the
liberal congressman who texted
cell phone photos of his private
parts to women who didn’t ask
for them; Spitzer was the wealthy
Democratic governor of New
York who paid hookers a thou-
sand bucks an hour to spank him.
Both resigned in disgrace.
Both are now running for office
again; Weiner for mayor of
New York and Spitzer for city
comptroller.
The other two gems of today’s
political sewage are Republican
incumbents dear to the Republican right. Cruz is a freshman
Republican senator from Texas;
Cantor a Republican congressman from Virginia who is the
House majority leader. He’s
the lean and hungry Cassius
you always see standing behind
Speaker John Boehner, studiously keeping his hands clean
while waiting for his big chance
when his leader gets stabbed in
the back by his friends.
Neither has been involved in
public sex scandals; they earn
their infamy the old-fashioned
way, by selling fear and hate in
the political marketplace. They
offer us an America without
hope, cowering behind high
walls and barbed wire, afraid
of the very love of freedom that
brought our ancestors to these
shores and dedicated to the proposition that some men are created
and shall forever remain rich and
the devil take the hindmost.
What triggered my contempt
for these four beauties was rereading, on July 4, the Declaration of Independence, a
declaration Thomas Jefferson
felt we should make out of “a
decent respect to the opinions of
mankind.”
We are a long way from those
sentiments. Few of today’s politicians, and certainly not these
four, have a decent respect for
anything but their own ambitions. The Democrats have
perfected the art of the phony
apology and redemption
campaign; the Republicans the cynical arts of
manufactured outrage
and pandering to the
Koch brothers and
their ilk.
Maybe we shouldn’t
read the Declaration of
Independence too closely. It
is heady stuff and gets us revved
up over things best left in the
archives.
“We mutually pledge to each
other our lives, our fortunes, and
our sacred honor,” Jefferson
wrote.
Spitzer’s fortune seems
pledged to hookers with
whips; Weiner’s sacred honor
got sex-texted into the wild;
Ted Cruz’s life is dedicated to
making sure the desperate migrants dying of thirst crossing
Texas deserts on their quest
for freedom shall die in
vain; Cantor’s honor
doesn’t stretch far
enough to include
the old-fashioned
value of either
supporting his own
chief or openly opposing him.
Has America really come
to this? There are people in the
hotspots of the globe risking jail
and death in impassioned protest
for or against things they believe
in. I wonder how we can watch
the stories of Egypt and Turkey
and Syria without blushing at
our own timidity. Surely we
can find men and women of
achievement for whom public
service still means more than
perks, paychecks, pensions and
TV fame. Where is the outrage
about what’s going on here at
home? Or do we no longer give
Joe’s
take
a damn?

No need for Absecon to go downhill
By JOHN ARMSTRONG
Mayor of Absecon
“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose
under the heaven: A time to be
born, and a time to die…”
Ecclesiastes 3
Whatever your religious views,
it is hard to argue with the logic
of that Biblical passage. After we
reach a certain age, life has a way
of reminding us that each of us has
an expiration date. But that is not
necessarily so for a community. It
is made up of a great number and
variety of persons. A town has a
communal life which transcends
the natural life of any one of its
members. Nevertheless, we all
know of communities that have
the look and feel of death. But
that should not be Absecon’s fate.
These days there are people
in Absecon who long for some
distant golden age and view the
future with fear and trepidation.
They see change in town and
assume that it spells the doom of
Absecon as a livable community.
I also recognize those changes,
some from the outside and some
from within, but I do not believe
that they represent such a dire
threat. Some of these changes can
be good; others not. The point is
that we must choose which to embrace and which we must resist.
We can no longer sit back idly and
watch what happens. We have to
decide the kind of town we want
to be and then work toward that
goal. Let me be more specific.
There has been considerable
controversy in town regarding
proposed real estate projects
which include units available to
“low and moderate income families.” Some people hear that and
immediately conclude that these
proposals are for public housing
projects or for the much vilified
“Section 8 rentals.” The truth is
otherwise. These projects would
include units which would be
affordable to people of the same
income bracket as many of our
current residents. For example,
in our region, a family of four
with an income of $58,384 is
qualified as “moderate income,”
and as “low income” with an
income of $36,490. As such,
almost one-quarter of existing
Absecon residents would qualify
as “low or moderate income.”
Absecon’s governing body
and its Planning Board are now
completing a revision to our
Master Plan which will designate
areas for inclusion of “low and
moderate income” housing in
accordance with state law. Unfortunately, our city government
failed to comply with that law
for decades. We were recently
sued by a developer because of
this omission, and we are now
paying a heavy price in legal and
planning costs until that mistake
is corrected. You can be sure
that all of our city officials will
carefully consider all available
choices to comply with that
law so that we avoid negative
impacts to our community.
That brings us to an even
greater risk than the threat of the
unknown from future real estate
development. Along with the
rest of Atlantic County, Absecon
has suffered through the “Great
Recession,” a downturn which
continues as evidenced by a current 12.7% unemployment rate
locally. Our residents have been
at least as hard hit as any other
community in Atlantic County.
With the loss of income, some
have begun to let their properties
go to seed a bit. We see it in
homes that need a fresh coat of
paint or a new roof. Others have
unkempt lawns. Unfortunately,
we also see it in some of the City’s
own facilities where maintenance
has been deferred. We need to get
on top of these problems. In many
cases, the problem is not so much
financial as psychological. We
must recognize these flaws and
eliminate them.
Acknowledging that we face
these challenges does not mean
we are giving up. On the contrary,
I believe very strongly that every
risk which Absecon faces today
can be overcome if we share the
vision of Absecon as a vibrant
middle class community open to
all those who appreciate stable,
welcoming neighborhoods, a
quality educational system, and
a friendly business community.
We do not lack for examples
of that community pride. That
spirit can be found among the
members of our volunteer fire
department. Just before Independence Day, Chief Joe Smith
and his firefighters recognized that
we did not have enough flags for
display along New Jersey Avenue.
The Chief donated the needed
flags and brackets and his men
went about installing them along
New Jersey Avenue. That is just
one of a succession of reasons
why we are fortunate to have these
volunteers in our community,
and another reason to believe that
we can fix any of the problems
we have in Absecon if we come
together in good faith and pitch in.
Who Put the Boom in da
Boom da Boom?
That burning question was answered by some local residents on
a recent visit to my office. Apparently, many residents of Absecon
Shores and the East Faunce
Landing Road area were being
disturbed by loud, reverberating
base sounds wafting across the
bay. Many assumed that this
From the
mayor’s chair
sonic intrusion was coming
from one of the Marina District
casinos. Well, not so. In fact, it
originated from an abandoned
parking lot on Absecon Boulevard just across the Atlantic
City municipal line. A van customized with gigantic speakers,
a veritable mobile boom box,
was parked there at various late
hours for an impromptu party of
dozens of revelers. The Absecon
Police Department has intervened to stop at least one of these
disturbances, but if anyone hears
“da boom da boom” any day or
night, please call the Absecon
Police and action will be taken.

By FRANK A. LoBIONDO
Congressman, District 2
Earlier this month the Obama administration publicly acknowledged what many in Congress,
healthcare experts, employers and everyday Americans have been predicting for the past three
years: namely, Obamacare is too deeply flawed to implement and ultimately unworkable in reality.
With the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling last year, Obamacare’s taxes on individuals and
employers who refuse to purchase or provide healthcare insurance became the law of the land.
Thus, the focus turned toward implementation of the 2,000-page law and its tens of thousands
of pages of regulations.
Few experts believe the Obama administration when it repeatedly states that rollout of
Obamacare is “on track,” as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) contends.
Furthermore, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has raised significant questions as to
the law’s readiness, including the lack of extensive testing of the new systems, which will operate
the marketplace exchanges.
On July 2, the Obama administration justified these concerns by announcing it was delaying
until 2015 the requirement that employers with at least 50 workers offer health coverage; the delay
is said to be due to complicated regulations issued by the IRS and HHS. Businesses with fewer
than 50 employees remain exempt from this mandate.
While this gives a temporary reprieve to medium and large businesses, it does not change course
for some employers who have already opted for more temporary, part-time workers and cut the
hours of full-time employees to avoid the coverage requirements. Likewise, there is speculation
that more employers will attempt to avoid the tax penalty altogether by simply dropping healthcare
plans they currently offer in 2014 as the scheduled marketplace exchanges come online, forcing
workers to secure their own coverage.
Delays in implementation and persistent questions from non-partisan experts such as the
GAO further erode the existing minority public support. The top Senate Democrat who authored Obamacare recently described implementation of the law as “a train wreck.” Skepticism,
uncertainty and anxiety continue in the eyes of local healthcare professionals, owners of small
businesses and seniors.
Not a week goes by that I don’t hear from South Jersey families and family owned businesses
looking at their finances and fearing hikes in health premiums such as those reported in California,
Ohio and other states.
Three years after Democrat majorities rammed Obamacare through Congress, House Republicans have successfully repealed or defunded eight provisions within the healthcare law, including
the excessive small business 1099 reporting mandate and several slush funds, saving taxpayers
more than $25 billion. Despite repeated attempts, the most egregious parts still remain: the individual mandate to purchase coverage or pay a penalty, the 2.3 percent tax on medical devices
such as wheelchairs and hearing aids, and the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB), one
of more than 100 panels of unelected bureaucrats that will have the unchecked power to reduce
services based on costs, not treatments.
We will continue to fight to retain the critical doctor-patient relationship.
Making healthcare more accessible and affordable are goals on which everyone can agree.
But creating a solution in which the American people benefit from common-sense proposals and
ensures access to healthcare professionals is equally vital.
President Obama’s healthcare law, while upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court as a constitutional
tax, has been consistently rejected by the court of public opinion. This month’s announced delay
further reinforces the perception that Obamacare, as signed into law, is not in the best interest of
the country.
It is simply too intrusive into the lives of every South Jersey resident and too burdensome
to our employers who want to do right by their employees without bankrupting their business.
If the president supports a delay on mandating businesses to comply with Obamacare, why
doesn’t he support a delay for everyday Americans?
Candidates need to make time for southern New Jersey
By DANIEL DOUGLAS
Here we go again. We
have three statewide races
and no southern New Jersey candidates.
In the upcoming primaries for the United States
Senate from New Jersey,
for the Republicans we
have Steve Lonegan of Bogota, Bergen County, and
Alieta Eck from Somerset, Somerset County
For the Democrats,
we are offered Newark
Mayor Cory Booker of
Essex County; U.S. Rep.
Frank Pallone of Long
Branch, Monmouth County; U.S. Rep. Rush Holt of
Hopewell, Mercer County,
and New Jersey General
Assembly Speaker Sheila
Oliver of East Orange, Essex County.
All six of these candidates are from north of I-95,
which is certainly the far
reaches of the north-south
divide.
Taking a look at the
gubernatorial candidates, we
have incumbent Gov. Chris
Christie who calls Mendham, Morris County home.
His challenger, state Sen.
Barbara Buono, comes from
Metuchen, Middlesex County. The only other statewide
elected office is lieutenant
governor. The current
incumbent, Kim Guadagno,
is from Monmouth Beach,
Monmouth County.
It is left to gubernatorial candidate Buono to
determine whether there is
a southern New Jersey candidate on a statewide ballot
this year.
Buono has more than
enough trouble on her hands
in this election. A recent
Stockton Polling Institute
survey showed Buono lagging Christie by 40 points.
So Buono may be looking to
the more populous northern
counties for her lieutenant
governor running mate.
However, the eight southern New Jersey counties
include about 28 percent of
the state’s total population
with about 2.4 million
citizens.
At the very least, they
should come down to
southern New Jersey. It’s
great the candidates come
down to Atlantic City to
speak at a convention, but
they need to get out of the
casino hotels and ride the
Boardwalk on a bike from
Uptown to Downbeach. Or,
they could walk the length
of New Jersey beaches
like former U.S. Sen. Bill
Bradley used to do, talking
to New Jerseyans, shoobies
and bennies alike.
As much as I love Atlantic City, they need to
come across the bay and
visit us in Galloway, and
play a round of Golf at the
Stockton Seaview Hotel
and Golf Resort. We could
even organize a tournament
for the candidates and see
if their golf games mirror
their politics. Who is going
to hook their drive left or
shank right? Maybe we can
find out who can drive the
ball straight.
After Galloway, they
should head to the reinvigorated Hammonton
downtown and find great
blueberries on their way to
Vineland where they can
stock up on Dandelion wine.
Local candidates always
find time to make it to the
county fairs. Our candidates
for governor and senator
should find their way to
these 4-H fairs, too.
Who do they think put the
“garden” in the Garden State
and the “fresh” in Jersey
Fresh?
We survived the eye of
Superstorm Sandy making landfall on Brigantine
Island. We need a southern
New Jersey candidate. At
the very least, we need a
candidate who can find their
way from Cape May Point
to Carney’s Point. It is OK
to use a GPS, but come on
down.

Director of the William J.
Hughes Center for Public Policy at the Richard

To the editor:
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has said, “Who
wants to vote against voting
rights?” and yet he and his
fellow conservative justices
just did exactly that.
The thrust of Section 5 of
the Voting Rights Act is to
make sure that states with
a history of voter discrimination that have in the past
tried to suppress the voting
rights of certain citizens,
do not get away with their
schemes. Whenever they
want to change something
that will dilute the rights of
voters, such as a poll tax,
shortening the number of
polling days or hours, or the
closing of polling places in
certain areas, they must get
clearance from the Department of Justice to do so. This
is to protect the voting rights
for all.
One need only look to the
2012 election cycle to see
that not only does Section
5 of the VRA need to be
continued, there are some
states that need to be added
to the list.
When the VRA was overwhelmingly reauthorized in
2006, and happily signed
by then-President Bush, the
Congress at that time had
the power to update the formula, which it should have
done. However, it did not.
The Supreme Court says the
Congress could do that now.
Considering that Congress
can’t even agree on where
to go for lunch, that seems
highly unlikely.
The irony here is that all
the states and municipalities
covered under Sections 4 and
5 of the VRA have always
had the option to opt out. All
they have to do is show that
they are no longer trying to
discriminate and are “doing
the right thing.” Then they
would no longer have to
go through the clearance
process.
My guess is that they are
still not “doing the right
thing” or they would have
opted out. Now they are going to be able to continue and
even increase their wrongdoings with nothing holding
them back.
Shame on Justice Scalia
and the other four justices
who have just “voted against
voting rights.”

Pope John Paul
II sainthood is too
much too soon
To the editor:
Pope Francis XXIII recently
announced that Pope John Paul
II is to be declared a saint. I
for one do not agree to two
things; the rush to judgment or
the rush to sainthood for Pope
John Paul II.
Everyone who passes from
this life in the good graces of
God is a saint. So why the rush
to sainthood for Pope Paul II?
I firmly believe that this rush
is short-sighted because Pope
John Paul II was held in much
esteem, receiving earthly accolades and honors, which even
Jesus Christ did not want or
receive.
Paul II did nothing tangible
about the clergy scandal of
priests that sexually brutalized young boys. The cardinals came to Rome at great
expense, but nothing was
actually done; no clergy were
dismissed, no punishments
administered, and at least one
third of church membership,
along with their contributions,
were lost under his watch.
Churches, schools, hospitals and social services were
contracted and closed. Pope
Benedict XVI had the audacity
to say the church had to get
smaller. Where is that sentiment found in the words of
Jesus who ordered the apostles
to go and spread the gospel,
not contract it?
Nothing was done about the
homosexual lobby in the Vatican that permeated the church.
Adding insult to injury, the
pope gave precedence to Islam
over Protestant Christian sects.
And curiously, these miracles
always benefit the religious.
And nothing was done about
the scandals of Jesuit institutions of higher learning, as
many as 20 of 25 in the USA
that took heretical positions on
homosexuality and abortion,
even promoting internships
with Planned Parenthood. If
anything, the church has drifted away from the true Gospel
of Jesus Christ.
Pope John Paul II may very
well be a saint in that he died
in good grace and now his soul
resides in heaven, but a formal
public worldwide declaration
I think is too much too soon.
What’s needed is a year of
penance for evil that continues
to inhabit too much of the
church.

an individual who, like Kauffman, works tirelessly on behalf
of local veterans.
Frolow said they are not
releasing the name of the reApril Kauffman
cipient in advance of the presentation as it is meant to be a surprise.
Among the many that are expected to attend the event is Kim Pack, April Kauffman’s daughter,
who will help make the presentation.
The award presentation begins at 1 p.m. and the public is invited to be a part of this special
event. Call (609) 927-7145.
New Ladies Auxiliary to
link with Longport Legion
By SHAUN SMITH
Staff Writer
LONGPORT – The country
has its Founding Fathers and a
new veterans’ group now has a
founding mother.
John A. Kuzmann Memorial
American Legion Post 469 voted
unanimously at its June 4 meeting to establish an auxiliary unit
associated with the post. Best
known as the City Clerk here,
Amy Strawder is heading up the
effort and will hold a formation
meeting 7 p.m. Tuesday, July
16, at the Longport Community
Center at 33rd and Atlantic
avenues.
Anyone who is the wife,
daughter, mother, granddaughter, great granddaughter, sister
and grandmother, including
step relatives of a Legionnaire
or a deceased veteran having
served during a wartime period,
is eligible to join.
Women who are eligible for
the American Legion can also
join and residency in Longport is
not required for members.
“The motion to form a Women’s Auxiliary Unit was unanimously approved by the voting
members of our American Legion Post, and the ladies will
have our full support in getting
off to a great start,” said Post
469 Cmdr. Larry Pacentrilli of
Ventnor.

starting a Women’s Auxiliary
Unit for our American Legion
Post, the question really caught
me by surprise. But, it didn’t
take me long to realize what a
blessing a Women’s Auxiliary
would be,” Pacentrilli said Tuesday. “Our Legion post has been
around for over 50 years, and
most of our folks are getting up
there in age. In the past year, six
of our members passed away.
Each year it seems we try to do
more with fewer people. We
need help.”
The American Legion Auxiliary was founded in 1919 and
is the world’s largest women’s
patriotic service organization,
according to the national Auxiliary website. It cites membership
at 800,000 in more than 9,000
communities.
“With Amy’s offer to start a
Women’s Auxiliary, and with
the wonderful ladies in our communities who always seem willing to lend a hand, I’m sure our
new Women’s Auxiliary Unit
will soon be in operation and
fulfilling their mission, which is
to assist the American Legion,”
Pacentrilli said. “With help from
the Women’s Auxiliary, I’m
confident our American Legion
Post will continue to serve as that
visible link between our troops
and our local communities.”

Strawder (609) 742-2565.

Strawder, of Galloway, currently has two family members
in Post 469 – her husband Henry and their daughter Sabrina
Strawder.
“I was trying to help them
with their Buddy Poppy program
this year that they did at the Assumption Church in Galloway. I
thought if we had more help we
could make more money and
that would be beneficial because
some of that would go to the
Wounded Warrior program,”
Strawder said Tuesday, July 9.
“This is where I came up
with the Auxiliary idea. My
great uncle was killed in action
in World War II, and my father,
brother, husband and daughter
all served. I come from a long
service background, I feel like
I was in the service, but I just
didn’t wear a uniform.”
Strawder said anyone who
is interested in joining should
attend the meeting on Tuesday
when officers will be nominated.
“This is a good way we can
gather together and work toward
that and help the men who helped
us maintain our freedom,” Strawder
said.
Pacentrilli said the Auxiliary can
assist in publishing the Longport
Directory, the Poppy Program, the
Wounded Warrior Week program,
Memorial Day and other programs
throughout the year.

tendon provides an attachment
point to assist in movement.
Unfortunately, just like ropes
we use to lift and pull objects
in everyday life our tendons are
susceptible to becoming frayed
and damaged.
Regardless of the cause, a tendon that is not working properly
will become swollen and painful.
This is typically the result of an
inflammatory process called
“tendonitis.” Causes can be
sudden - from a fall, or chronic from repetitive activities.
Tendon disorders will more
commonly affect the large joints
of the body such as the rotator
cuff of the shoulder, Achilles
tendon of the ankle and the
patella tendon of the knee. On
average, men and women are
most susceptible to tendon injuries during their third to sixth
decade of life. This occurs as
the blood supply to the tendon
becomes diminished, affecting
its overall strength and repairing
properties.
Associated symptoms of tendonitis will include pain with
movement and rest, direct swelling of the tendon, and loss of
strength and function. The diagnosis is typically made through
a patient history and exam. An
MRI is also commonly used to
assist in diagnosis and treatment
especially if a complete tear is
suspected or in cases that are not
responding well to conservative
care.
Initial treatment will include
rest from painful activity, anti-inflammatory medications and
a physical therapy program. For
refractory cases, more aggressive
management with cortisone injections and surgical removal of
dead or infected tissue or repair

of the tendon may be necessary.
Although not absolute, a routine exercise and strength training program will help maintain a
healthier tendon over a lifetime
and decrease the risk of developing tendonitis.

Tendonitis and other orthopaedic questions contact Shore

Technological improvements have changed cataract surgery
Cataracts are virtually universal as we age. Cataract surgery is
the most commonly performed
major surgery, with more than 2
million performed annually.
Huge strides in technology
over the last 15 years have resulted in a procedure that now
takes 10 minutes, is performed
in out-patient surgery centers
rather than hospitals and has a
remarkably high success rate.
In cataract surgery, the eye’s
clouded natural lens is replaced
with a synthetic lens implant.
Implants have been used for
many years. Usually this means
that distance vision (driving,
watching TV) is good without
glasses but glasses are still needed for reading.
Outstanding long term care.
Exceptional amenities.
Advanced technology implants have emerged over the
past 10 years providing greater
independence from glasses than
ever before. Multifocal implants
eliminate the need for reading
and computer glasses; 90 percent
of patients no longer require
glasses after cataract surgery.
Toric implants correct for
astigmatism, which results from
imperfections in the shape of the
eye. Astigmatism is very common and is easily corrected with
glasses. Without these implants,
glasses are still needed after
surgery to correct astigmatism,
however.
Not everyone is a candidate
for these technologies. Some
patients don’t mind wearing
glasses. Cost is certainly a factor,
because Medicare and all other
insurances do not pay for the
additional cost of these implants.
“At the Coastal Jersey Eye
Center, we assess each patient’s
interests, activities and vocational needs and obtain important
data during extensive pre-operative testing to develop a personalized set of recommendations
for the proper implant choice,”
reads a press release from the
center.
For more information about
cataract surgery and implant
technology, contact Dr. Stephen
H. Uretsky of the Coastal Jersey
Eye Center, an ophthalmologist
specializing in a wide range of
eye problems including prescribing glasses and contact
lenses, treatment of glaucoma
and many other eye conditions
and state-of-the art surgical and
laser procedures.
The Coastal Jersey Eye Center
has offices in Cape May Court
House and Linwood. For more

Proceeds benefit people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Atlantic County
By SUZANNE MARINO
Staff Writer
The Little Garden Club celebrates summer with their annual tour that this year features
seven gardens in Linwood and
one in Egg Harbor Township.
For the $15 donation, it is a
ticket to help each visitor unlock the possibilities that exist
right in your own backyard.
Last summer’s tour was on
the heels of the derecho and
the participants worked very
hard to keep their gardens
blooming despite the heat.
In the case of Tina and Jim
Leonard, the derecho knocked
down a tree and resulted in
extensive damage and they
were forced to take their home
off the tour.
The Leonard’s home on Dee
Drive is back this year and
after a great deal of work the
homeowners report that their
pond and garden are back to
life and infused with textures,
colors and moss draped New
Jersey ironstone.
Betty and Martin DeBruin
of LaCosta Drive in Egg Harbor Township share a passion
for gardening. Betty likes
annuals and Martin prefers
perennials and both seek to
add new plants each year that
will benefit wildlife.
Waldor Orchids is on the
tour this year at their East Poplar Avenue location. Not only
will all of the greenhouses be
available but their naturalistic
showroom with waterfalls and
goldfish will let visitors feel as
though they have stepped into
the tropics.
Stacy and Allan Greenman
say the front yard of their
School House Drive home
has been an experimental
garden. Working toward less
maintenance and less watering has made for a pleasant
experiment.
Bonnie and Tom Lacovara
have a home along the bike
path in Linwood that features
a 5,000 gallon koi pond with
a stream and waterfall as the
centerpiece of their natural native and imported garden. The
owner will present a lecture at
1:15 p.m. “How to get the koi
and natural pond you want.”
The home will also feature a
lemonade stand with all proceeds going to Gilda’s Club.
Nancy and Tom Kohr have
their Asbury Avenue garden
included in the tour and along
with Canadian spruce, Japanese ferns and iris’ but said
the showstopper is the angel’s
trumpet that Kohr’s dad roots
and shares every year.
Back on the tour after 10
years the Matlick’s of Royal
Avenue in Linwood have
changed just about everything
in their garden from a decade
ago. Calling their garden a
living canvas; an 11:15 lecture
by Lonny Matlick on garden
ornaments and decorations is
open to all on the tour.
Booklets for the Little Gardens Club summer tour are
available at the Linwood Arboretum located at the corner
of Belhaven Avenue on the
bike path. The Master Gardeners of Atlantic County will be
there to answer any questions.
The tour this summer benefits the Purple Martin Conservations Association, the
Pinelands Preservation Association, the Child Federation
Garden, Gilda’s Club Garden,
The Audubon Society, the Linwood Arboretum, the Community Food Bank of Southern
New Jersey and the Rescue
Mission Garden in Goshen in
Cape May County.
If you go;
Little Gardens Club summer
tour is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, July 14. The cost is $15
and each person will receive
a book with information and
directions. They can be purchased at the Linwood Arboretum on Sunday. The garden
tour is a rain or shine event.

Gowdy scores
another for the
‘old’ guys at Cape
May SuperAthalon
No Swell vs. Kidz
Creations in Puff Bowl IV
By BRIAN CUNNIFF
Staff Writer
CAPE MAY – Chuck Gowdy did a lot to prove
that the “old” guys can still perform well in beach
patrol competitions Monday night, July 8.
The 30-year-old Margate City Beach Patrol
lifeguard led a strong showing by veteran lifeguards at the Cape May SuperAthalon by winning
the run-row-swim triathlon in 39 minutes, 45
seconds.
Gowdy won for the second straight year in a
competition reserved for only the fittest beach
lifeguards in the region, an event that features a
2.3-mile run, 1.5-mile row and quarter-mile swim.
“It’s definitely an honor to win it again,” said
Gowdy, a full-time Atlantic City firefighter who is
serving on the Margate Beach Patrol for the 17th
summer. “This is my fifth or sixth time doing it
but I’ve seen it well over 10 times. You look at
guys like (past multiple winners) Bick Murphy
(of Wildwood Crest) and Shane McGrath (of
Avalon) and a guy like Joe Maloy (of Wildwood
Crest) – these are top-notch athletes. It’s great to
be in their company.”
Beach patrol competitions are often dominated
by college-aged lifeguards, many of whom swim
or row or play another sport for their respective
schools and train extensively 12 months per year.
But Gowdy and a handful of other veteran guards
performed rather well Monday evening, proving
that many older lifeguards are still quite fit.
Mike Barrett, of Ocean Beach in Ocean County,
finished second to Gowdy for the second straight
year. Barrett, 30, a 15-year lifeguard, posted a time
of 40:29. Another veteran guard, Wildwood’s
Ryan Meyer, 28, was third in 40:37. Competing
for the ninth time, the third-place effort was the
best ever for the 12-year lifeguard.
Dan Brady, 22, of Ocean City, placed fourth
in 41:27. He was followed by 40-year-old Steve
There is still time. If you have interest in a

information email [email protected].
Chuck Gowdy of Margate emerges from
the water at the end of the swim leg, a few
yards from the finish line of the Cape May
SuperAthalon.
Mogck, who finished fifth in 42:21. Mogck,
returning to the Cape May Beach Patrol for the
first time in more than a decade, last competed
in the event in 1998. And Tim Schwegman of
Longport, a 31-year-old veteran of 13 summers,
was sixth in 42:43.
Gowdy was in the middle of the pack after the
run portion of the event. He quickly gained the
lead during the row.
“I was happy with my run,” Gowdy said. “I
really practiced that in the offseason and I felt
like I had a good stride. Some of these guys are
so fast so I was happy to finish where I did in the
run. Rowing is where I’m strongest but this year it
was a little tougher to catch the guys ahead of me.”
Gowdy was ahead by well over a minute going
into the swim. He was never challenged during
the final leg.
“I knew I had a nice lead but I felt like I didn’t
want to look over my shoulder and I tried to sprint
like everyone was right on my tail,” he said.

Scouts from Troop and Pack 634 of Assumption Regional Catholic School
show their patriotism.
Car after car of World War II veterans followed about 100 marchers from the Four Seasons at Smithville.
GallowayÊs parade for the veterans passes smoothly
By STEVE PRISAMENT
Staff Writer
GALLOWAY – Chairman Richard
Maxwell said the 4th of July Parade
went very smoothly – an opinion
shared with about 8,000 people who
lined Smithville Boulevard and Moss
Mill Road Thursday for the 15th
annual event.
“There were no breaks, no problems during the parade,” Maxwell
said Saturday, July 6. “We had some
cancellations because of the heat:
people with dogs, and some who were
afraid their cars would overheat.”
But the 4th was the last day before
South Jersey temperatures started
topping off in the 90s, and most
people didn’t seem bothered by a day
where the high reached 82 degrees.
Maxwell, who said the parade
committee is already starting to plan
for next year, made a point of thanking a lot of people.
“First, the great committee,” he
said. “They worked long and hard
and got everything done right and on
time. Next I’d like to thank Smithville
and Village Greene – the Coppola and
Bushar families in Smithville and the
Fitzgeralds in Village Greene.”
He said he wanted to thank all the
township officials and employees
who helped.
“We always get great cooperation,” Maxwell said. “I want to thank
Kevin McDowell and Public Works;
Police Chief Pat Moran and Capt.
Chris Doyle and the entire department. Also Mike Brandenberger and
his EMS people. I want to thank the
Petrosh family from Egg Harbor.”
He said Pepsi has been a big supporter of the parade for years.
“They provided the sodas for after
the parade at no charge,” Maxwell
said. “They give great support to this
event and to our country.”
Parade judges Whitney Ullman,
Joe Ciapanna, Michelle Dawn
Mooney and Dan Skeldon spent a
little more than two hours watching
the parade that lasted an hour and a
half. Skeldon’s dog, Bailey, joined
them – perched comfortably under a
table in a sun-protected area.
Winners in the best float contest
were Mainland Baptist Church, first;
Schairer’s Tree Removal, second;
and Honey and Sweet’s Farm Market, third.
The parade crowd has been holding
steady at about 8,000 – with perhaps
the lack of spectator growth being
because the parade is a victim of its
own success.
Nicole Price who heads the Miss
Teen Galloway organization said that
there are many groups that used to
come and watch the parade that are
now in the parade.
“There used to be youth organizations that would come to watch,
or kids who would watch with their
families,” she said. “But this is what
they want – participation. It’s been
very successful.”
Maxwell said he agreed.
“It’s not that we have people come
and don’t like the parade so they
stay home the next year,” he said.
“They’re coming back and participating.”
4th of July Parade Committee
members are Chairman Rich Maxwell, Vice Chairman Mike DiLullo,
Jacqueline Maxwell, Linda Hart,
Rich Hart, Bob Adamo, John Rodney, Nancy Rodney, Beth Stasuk,
Ike Rucker, John Mooney, Jennifer
Diluzio, Candy Brenner, Ron Neeld,
Jan Jorgensen, Kathy Hewson, Mike
Brandenberger, Donna Brandenberger, Jennifer Hahn, Robert Beyer,
Debbie O’Hagan, Mike O’Hagan and
Mo Loveland.

Steve Prisament
Walkers with the Mainland Baptist Church group in the Fourth of July Parade portray the U.S. flag.
Youngsters crowd pickup supporting troops in memory of George A. Carney who died in Vietnam in 1968.
The Mainland Baptist Church patriot bus carries more support for our
veterans and those engaged overseas.
