I am beginning to think that Mother Nature has gotten
her wires crossed. Winter was so warm, it was almost
toasty, and here it is May, and I have on a fleece jacket.
I am sure it is a case of “winter warming.”
Please try to remember that we are no longer accepting
handwritten articles. Computers are available in the
clubhouse. And perhaps one of the Legend staff can
help you if you have a problem.
As always, we have a very interesting issue. Starting

30th District
By Senator Robert W. Singer, Assemblymen Sean Kean and David Rible
Senior Newsletter Column • JUNE 2016
We would like to share with you information on how
to protect yourself against travel scams, as provided by
the New Jersey Division of Consumers Affairs, Office
of the Attorney General in a Consumer Brief.
According to the National Association of Attorneys
General, travel scams cost consumers $12 billion
annually. Unsuspecting consumers win “free” trips ,
which may require them to spend most of their vacation
in timeshare presentations. “Free” cruises end up
costing hundreds of dollars, and a “free” airline ticket
may require purchase of a second ticket at an escalated
price.
Fraudulent companies promote their travel packages
through the mail, by phone, unsolicited e-mail, or fax.
Vacations represent a real investment of both time and
money, so when planning your next vacation, remember
to:
• Stay away from travel offers which use high-pressure
sales tactics and have deals that sound “too good to
be true” because they probably are.
• Do not be pressured into making an uninformed
decision or commitment. Remember, a good offer
today will be available tomorrow.
• Be extremely suspicious of postcards and
telemarketers which say you have been “selected”
to receive a “spectacular ‘no cost’ vacation.”
• Seek the advice of a reputable travel agent and verify
your arrangements before you pay.
• Buy travel insurance if it’s possible that you won’t
be able to make the trip. That way you won’t lose
the entire cost of the trip, only an insurance fee.
• Learn travel vocabulary like “blackout periods,”
dates usually around holidays or peak seasons when
you are not entitled to use travel discounts; and
“subject to availability,” which means you may not
be able to get the accommodations you want when
you want them.
10
• Make sure you get all the details about your vacation
in writing, especially regarding restrictions,
cancellation penalties, refund policies, and additional
charges like taxes and service fees. If they do not
provide it, make sure to request it. Check to be sure
these documents reflect the same terms to which
you agreed.
• Pay by credit card. If you don’t get what you paid
for, you may be able to dispute the charges with your
credit card company. However, don’t provide your
account number to anyone over the phone unless you
know the company he/she represents is reputable.
Some telemarketers may say they need your account
number for identification or verification purposes—
they don’t. Your account number should only be
used to bill you for goods or services.
• Obtain a contact number to verify your travel
arrangements prior to your vacation and make sure
nothing has changed (i.e. travel times, dates, checkin, air travel, etc.)
• There is additional information about charter flights,
their advantages and disadvantages. If a charter
flight is chosen, your rights are spelled out in an
“operator/participant contract” that the operator or
your travel agent should give you to sign at the time
you purchase your trip.
According to the Consumer Brief on this subject, the
Department of Transportation requires charter operators
to disclose certain information in their contracts about
the restrictions that they impose and also the rights that
you have under its rules.
If you would like more information about charter
flights, such as issues of charter flight insurance and
lost luggage disputes, you can access this Consumer
Brief at www.njconsumeraffairas.gov/a2z.htm and go
to Travel Scams. There is also additional information on
charter flights at airconsumer.ost.dot.gov/publications/
charters.htm
You alone are responsible for knowing if you need a
visa and passport for your trip. You can be certain about

visit by calling or writing their embassies in Washington
D.C. or their consulates in some major U.S. cities.

company and record their contact information. It
may also be helpful to get the name of the travel
representative who is booking your trip.

I am the fairest daughter of the year.”

Around the House
Safety Bars
By Bob Mattsson
Have you ever been in the shower and get soap in bar placed at angle near the toilet could catch two studs
your eyes or turn quickly or even bend over to retrieve fairly easy. The screws have to be set at an angle when
the bar of soap only to straighten up quickly and you
become slightly disoriented or dizzy? Bet you wish
you had something to reach out for or to hold onto.
That’s when a safety bar really comes in handy. When
we moved in my wife was already handicapped so we
wanted a vertical and a horizontal bar in the walk-in
shower and an angled bar by the toilet. Because we
asked for this before the house was built, they installed
blocking (see picture) to make the installation easier.
This can still be done using the screw fastened type
of bar if you can locate your studs. If your tile does
not go all the way to the overhead, you can locate your
driving them in so they catch the stud(s). See diagram.
Drill a pilot hole first and put some candle wax or soap
on the screws so they are easier to drive in and have less
chance of snapping off. You can mount bars in other
places where you may need them also. They don’t have
to be in the shower or even the bathroom if you think
you could use them somewhere else.
studs behind the sheetrock and then drop a plumb bob
line to find the area to drill. Sometimes you can locate
the studs on the other side of the wall and taking exact
measurements you can transfer that to the shower or tub
stall. Probably, this is best done by a contractor who
knows what he is doing. I also recommend that the type
you install be screwed to the studs. Regular expandable
screw anchors set in sheet rock are not strong enough to
last over time, in my opinion. The wing type anchors are
only as strong as your sheet rock and need a relatively
large hole to pass through leaving a chance for water
to seep into the walls, so I wouldn’t use them either.
As far as the suction type goes, I wouldn’t trust them
at all. They may seem strong but when you really need
them you have to hope they can support your weight as
you are falling. Without blocking, a vertical bar would
probably be the best so you could catch the stud whereas
a horizontal bar would be a little more of a challenge
unless it was 16” or 32” long to align with the studs. A

The Computer Corner
By Ken Aurin
Well, spring is here and summer will soon be with us.
Yes, the nice warm breezes and bright sunny days can
bring us endless enjoyment, but we must remain vigilant.
Our computers and other costly electronic devices that
we get such daily enjoyment from can fall victim to
abrupt changes in the weather or electrical changes from
within our house..
A stream of fast approaching clouds can bring heavy
rain and fierce lightning before you know it. Mother
Nature has a way of disrupting our day in ways we can’t
imagine. I know that I have talked in the past about
backing up your important files. Remember you can’t
look at these files if a computer failure due to a huge
power surge has caused your computer to no longer
work. The only thing you can do now is buy a new
computer.
Well how can you minimize the chance of you having
such a problem? The chance of a direct lightning strike
is very unlikely. In many cases, 60% to 80% of power
surges start inside the home, typically from major
appliances and systems that cycle on and off, such as
air conditioners, refrigerators, and clothes dryers. The
best solution is a Surge Protector. Surge protectors can
provide help when the electrical system in your home
receives a large surge of current. This in-house surge is
then sent to your computer or other connected devices
like a printer, monitor or a scanner.
There are many different types of surge protectors
available, from whole house protectors installed in
your breaker panel to smaller protectors that plug into
an outlet and then allow you to plug in your electronic
devices. Prices can range from less than twenty dollars
for a small plug in protector up to 300 hundred dollars for
a whole house protector. Are they worth the investment?
Yes, and many of them come with equipment insurance
provided by the surge protector manufacturer. The
investment can be a small price to pay rather than
replacing all of your equipment. And don’t forget your
large screen TVs — a small plug in surge protector will
be well worth the price you pay for it.
Surge protectors can be purchased at places like
BestBuy, Staples, Walmart and many other stores.

What A Wonderful Night!
By Joyce Deutsch
On Saturday evening, April 16, 150 Fairways
residents and friends filled the ballroom ready to party.
It wasn’t a wedding, it wasn’t a bar mitzvah—it was
karaoke! The Fairways Theater Group sponsored the
event, and DJ David Wills of Beatbox Entertainment,
came prepared with a repertoire of songs for singing
and dancing the night away.
Linda Astorino and Joan O’Donnell, welcomed
everyone and kick started the festivities with their
karaoke solos. Bravo ladies! Friends and neighbors
provided scrumptious food and yummy desserts so
our performers could truly “sing for their supper.”
Besides The Fairways’ cache of talent, Leisure
Village residents came
to enjoy and entertain;
and that they did.
Bob’s rendition of
“Hey Good Lookin,”
and Cathy’s “I Know
I’ll Never Love This
Way Again” were
standouts. Charlie’s
“This Magic Moment”
and Kara’s “These
Boots Were Made For
Walkin” roused the
crowd. Howie sang,
“Cry For Help.” I’m
Pat & Carl
thinking that was the
only way he could express himself after dancing with
all of us unescorted ladies.
To give our performers a breather, couples enjoyed
slow dancing while the rest of us mingled. There’s
always a first time for everything, and this was
the first time I ever saw a “grammy’s sippy cup;”
perhaps our friend, Joanne Scher,
can elaborate. Others were on their
feet for some really cool line dancing
and a conga line.
Got to give a shout out to all of
the performers who treated us to
the oldies, complete with back-up
singers, and more amazing solos
and duets; and kudos to the Theater
28
Group committee, Linda Astorino, Joan O’Donnell,
and Bernadette Rispler.
Perhaps the “icing on the cake” was Charlie’s
version of Satchmo’s “What A Wonderful World.”
And I might add, what a wonderful night!

Fairways Sailing Group
Holds BBQ Lunch
By Al Walter
On Thursday, May 5, The Fairways Sailing Group
held its annual BBQ lunch in the clubhouse ballroom.
Thirty-eight members and guests attended the lunch,
which was catered by Wallach’s. Each round table had
a miniature sailboat as a decorative centerpiece.
The food started with a generous salad bowl at each
table and people helped themselves. The rest of the
food was served buffet style. The buffet consisted of
hot dogs and sauerkraut, sausage and peppers, baked
beans, barbecued and baked chicken and various salads.
There was more than enough food for everyone; in fact,
seconds were offered to anyone still hungry.
Wine, soda and beer were available throughout the
meal, as well as dessert. Then, to conclude the lunch,
we held the usual card game that we play at each Sailing
Club meal. It’s a fun game that everyone enjoys. The
food was good, as was the service, and we all enjoyed
the chance to socialize with our fellow sailors. The
Committee did a great job for which we offer our sincere
thanks, and we look forward to our next meal together.

Tea Time!!
By Janet Oese - Photos by Manny Brito
The Women’s Club had High Tea at
Downton Abbey on Sunday, May 1 — or at
least it seemed that way. The ladies were
dressed Victorian style with lovely hats.
There were flowers, ribbons, decorations, all
colors, and feathers, too—each one different
and alluring. Jewelry was as Victorian as
the dress and hats. Tables were set with
porcelain dishes and tea cups. To me, the
teapots were just beautiful, and I didn’t
know which one was nicest. Embroidered
napkins and tablecloths set the mood along
with relaxing music.
We had two teas, a djarling and a signature decaf
tea—both wonderful. We started with a watermelon
salad with arugula and feta that wet our appetite for
more. Delicious sandwiches were served and there
was plenty for seconds and thirds. The lemon curd,
clotted cream and strawberry jam was passed with
chocolate chip and apricot and ginger scones. Carrot
cake, chocolate cake with chocolate gnache came next.
As if we needed more, strawberry shortcake cupcakes
were passed. The servers were attentive, and it was
such a lovely English afternoon.
Beautiful themed baskets were given out after
drawings. These baskets were brimming with treats.
Some of the themes were spa, Italian, dog lovers,
beach, tea, and more.
A gorgeous wreath was
given away and many
potted flowers.
What
a
delightful
afternoon. Perfect Blend
Catering from Burlington,
NJ did an outstanding job
as well as the Women’s
Club Committee. We
sincerely thank them for
their hard work. It was
truly enjoyable.

The Camera Club Trip to Grounds for Sculpture
By Janet Winey
On a warm, sunny day in April, six members of
The Fairways Camera Club went to the Grounds
for Sculpture in Hamilton Township, New
Jersey. After paying the admission (only $12 for
seniors), they had a light lunch on the patio of
the Café and then began the search for photo
opportunities. The Grounds for Sculpture is a
beautifully landscaped 42-acre park-like setting
with a koi pond, strolling peacocks, an elegant
restaurant and a lake that provides a picturesque
backdrop to many of the exhibits. The sculptures
are created from a variety of materials including
stone, bronze, wood and enameled metal and are
situated in the natural environment. In addition
to the East Gallery, a 7,500 square foot exhibition
and performing arts space, there is The Meadow, a
seven-acre outdoor gallery with rotating exhibits.
The Fairways photographers had no shortage of
interesting images to capture.
In 1984, J. Seward Johnson, sculptor and
philanthropist, had a vision of a public sculpture
garden and museum. Grounds for Sculpture
was conceived as a place where people could
experience sculpture in a familiar, accessible and informal setting.
Construction began in 1989 on the site of the former New Jersey
Fairgrounds and Grounds for Sculpture opened to the public in 1992. The
park has now exhibited over 270 works including pieces by renowned
artists Clement Meadmore, Anthony Caro, Beverly Pepper, Kiki Smith
and New Jersey sculptor George Segal.
At the Camera Club meeting a week later, the group reviewed photos
taken on the trip. Meetings are the third Thursday at 2 p.m. in the Annex.

The National Day of Prayer Service Held at The Fairways
By Al Walter
The Fairways held its fifth annual observance of the
National Day of Prayer on Thursday, May 5. Rev. Dr.
Gary Wetzel, a Fairways resident, led the observance
which was held behind the swimming pool near the
bocce courts. All attendees received a handout which
listed who we will be praying for. We began by praying
for elements of our Federal Government—the President,
Congress, the Courts and the Military. Next we prayed
for the State—the Governor, the Legislature and the
Courts. We prayed for our community, The Fairways.
We prayed for the media and entertainment industries.
We prayed for countries subjected to war, especially
Israel. All prayers were offered either silently or out
loud by individuals.
When the prayers were complete, we sang God Bless
America two times through. American flags were placed
throughout the area where the prayers were offered.
Despite the cold and damp weather, the observance
went beautifully. We were all invited to take home a
package of homemade oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip
cookies, or both, that included a lovely expression of
good will and feelings.

The Art of Ikebana
By Janet Oese
Ikebana is a centuries old art of
Japanese floral design. On April 14,
Marina Kerber demonstrated and
lectured The Fairways Garden Club
on this ancient Asian art. Marina
is the President of the Navasink
Garden Club and is a student at
Sogetsu School. She has been doing
Ikebana since 2008. Ikebana is all
about balance and proportion. It is
Marina Kerber
about communing with nature and
enjoying nature’s beauty. Blossoms are cut off the stems
in order to see and appreciate the stem of the branch or
flower. Marina created many Ikebana style centerpieces.
The pieces with cherry blossom branches were beautiful.
She told us the Japanese use these flowers because they
last a very short time and they are reminiscent of life.
While Marina worked diligently arranging the flowers
and branches perfectly at the correct angle, we just
appreciated the beauty of the piece and would not really
have known if it was at a correct angle. It was just pretty
to us all.
One rule we learned was flowers should always look
up toward the heavens. Tulips, for example, should never
be hanging downward as they sometimes do. Buddhist
monks arranged Ikebana for altars for 600 years. They
were always arranged like a landscape. When Western
flowers were introduced in Japan other styles could be
done, i.e., freestyle, upright. In the 20th century women
were now allowed to do Ikebana because the men thought
it would be good training to be a wife. Boy, that country
just changes so fast.
The pieces were given out at drawings, and it was
another successful Garden Club meeting.
Fran Collins Takes
First Prize at Art Show
Fran Collins, who is a
resident of The Fairways
and a member of the
Lauerelton Art Society,
won first prize in the
category of mixed media.
Fran’s painting, called
“Waterfall,” is done in
Fran Collins
pastel chalk. When I asked
Fran where she got the inspiration for her painting,
she said: “I was driving to Vermont and spotted the
waterfall along the way.” She really captured the
beauty of the waterfall with her pastels. Fran is a
very talented watercolorist and has painted numerous
watercolor paintings, which she has hanging in home.
The Laurelton Art Society is a local organization
where artists of all mediums are welcome. Once a year
the society holds its Festival of Art at the Brick Library.
Everyone is welcome to see the paintings and enjoy
tasty food.
Congratulations to Fran!

The Chair
Women’s Club Cabaret Night
As long as I can
remember, my dad had
a chair he loved to relax
in after a hard day at
work. As years passed he
eventually treated himself
to the chair of all chairs,
the Lazy-Boy reclining
chair. Once he retired you
would find him in his chair
watching television and
reading the newspaper.
When his first grandchild
was born, my son Adam,
they would spend a great
deal of time together on that chair. After my dad passed
away, Adam would visit my mom and sit in the chair
remembering those special times.
Eventually my mom moved and no longer had
room for the chair. My son took the chair to his first
apartment in Hoboken and through the years the chair
went with him as he moved into new apartments in that
city. Unfortunately, Superstorm Sandy hit and a great
deal of what he and his wife owned was destroyed or
barely salvageable. The item that caused him the most
heartache was the chair, which was almost beyond
saving. It was like losing his grandpa all over again.
We were able to dry out the chair; it went into storage
and eventually moved with them into their new home.
However, the chair had water stains and no longer
worked. As a gift to my son, his wife had the chair
cleaned and repaired. The chair now holds a place
of honor in their apartment overlooking Manhattan.
When the sun shines into the expansive windows, it
literally shines on the chair.
A few weeks ago, I received a message on my phone
with the caption, third generation, along with a picture
of my 3-year old granddaughter reading in her greatgrandfather’s chair. A chair can emanate love and
comfort. My dad’s chair does—just ask my son and
my granddaughter. I also know that the stories about
her great-grandfather will continue through the years
and his memory will be preserved whenever she sits
in the chair.

April Men’s Club Meeting
By Al Walter
The Men’s Club held a special meeting on Monday,
April 11, the night of its regular monthly meeting.
What made the meeting special was the invitation
that was extended to the Women’s Club to attend our
meeting and to listen to the Men’s Club guest speaker
Claudia Marchese, Esq., the Executive Director of
the Catastrophic illness in the Children’s Relief Fund
Commission. Many New Jersey residents are not aware
of the work of this Commission. It was important for
as many residents of the Fairways as possible, men and
women, to hear what the Executive Director had to say.
A crowd in excess of 170 people attended the meeting.

Treasurer’s, and upcoming activities reports. Sandy
Ferguson, President of the Women’s Club, thanked the
Men’s Club for the invitation and spoke about upcoming
activities, in particular Cabernet Night.
Claudia began her remarks by citing an example of how
the Relief Fund Commission helped a family when their
child suffered a carotid artery problem. The total bill for
care was one million dollars. The Commission got the
medical facilities to wave $300,000 of the bill, and they
paid $300,000—major help to the family. Claudia noted
that the Financial Assistance Program began in 1988 by
legislation sponsored by Governor DeFrancesco. In 1995,
eight million dollars was spent on 465 families. To date,
40
over 800 applicants have received $164 million in help.
Claudia noted that no state or federal tax help is involved.
Also, there is no deadline or statute of limitations that
apply to the Fund.
Claudia then outlined the potentially eligible expenses
that can be covered—physician services, transportation,
pharmacy, and therapy. Not covered are insurance
premium, cosmetic surgery, supplements, and food.
Certain other items offer coverage, which is capped
ABA—therapy, speech therapy, home and vehicle
modifications.
The presentation was well done and those in attendance
definitely learned about a very valuable financial service.

Sun Safety
By Priscilla Moriarty, MSN, RN, BC
It’s that time of the year when outdoor activities
abound at The Fairways. I can remember the sunny
days at the beach, playing tennis, and boating in the
Shrewsbury River. Tanning with iodine and baby oil on
the roof, fondly known as “tar beach,” during my three
years in nursing school, are fond memories. Sunscreen
was not perfected in days gone by as it is today, and the
goal was to tan as dark as possible.
The damage caused by the sun is incremental, it
accumulates over a lifetime. According to the Skin
Cancer Foundation, UV light damages DNA, leading to
mutations that can contribute to cancer; then it produces
activated oxygen molecules that harm DNA and other
structures in the cells. Finally it suppresses immune
function around the area of sun damage.
How to prevent skin cancer:
SCREEN SAVERS
Staying out of the sun is by far the most effective way
to prevent skin cancer. Using sunscreen is the next-best
strategy; never wander far from your trusty SPF 30. Use
your sunscreen every day even if the day is cloudy; up
to 80% of the sun’s rays get through and it is worse at
the beach or on the ski slopes. Water reflects 20% of the
sun’s rays, while sand and snow boost them by 80%.
Sunscreens and sunblock are not the same. In
sunscreens the chemicals present prevent sun damage
by chemical absorbing radiation before it reaches the
skin. Pick a product that works on both UVA and UVB
radiation.
A Special Thank You
The Disegni family extends thanks to
all of our Fairways friends who expressed
their sympathy at George’s passing.
Sunblocks contain ingredients like zinc oxide or
titanium dioxide that lie on top of the skin and physically
obstruct UVA and UVB radiation. Apply 30 minutes
before sun exposure; it’s best to reapply frequently,
though no SPF allows you to stay in the sun all day.
How to choose SPF: the bigger the number the better
it blocks. SPF effectiveness is based on the percentage
of burning UVB rays it screens: SPF 15 fends off 93%;
SPF 30 screens 97%. Despite only 4% difference, most
dermatologists recommend trading up to at least SPF 30
in summer for extra protection. Look for broad spectrum
on the label, too. This means that it also screens UVA
rays. Smooth it on gently; rubbing sunscreen vigorously
into the skin reduces the effectiveness by at least 25%.
PROTECT YOUR EYES
Reduce your risk of cataracts, macular degeneration
and eyelid skin cancer by wearing wraparound
sunglasses labeled 100% UV protection. New UV
absorbing contact lenses are helpful, but can’t substitute
for sunglasses because they do not cover the entire eye.
(NY University Medical Center).
Is sun all bad? Well, it’s important for the body’s
production of vitamin D, which maintains bone density.
Some physicians advise exposure of arms and legs for
five to ten minutes of sunshine between 10 a.m. and
3 p.m. two to three times a week. This allows the
body to manufacture the vitamin D it needs without
increasing skin-cancer risk. Other dermatologists
disagree, especially since you can get vitamin D
through supplements, drinking vitamin D fortified milk
or juice, eating fatty fish, or taking a daily multivitamin
containing 600 units of vitamin D.
TANNING SALONS
Nearly 30 million Americans visit tanning salons
each year and many believe what they are doing carries
no danger. Not true! Tanning parlor radiation definitely
causes skin cancer. Damaging effects accumulate over
time. Indoor tanning is particularly dangerous during
the teenage years, and causes an increased risk of
melanoma.
For those folks who cannot be out in the sun, try using
indoor pools for your swimming pleasure and exercise,
or buy clothing that will protect you from the sun’s
rays.
Enjoy the wonderful weather and remember to wear
sunscreen when out and about. Happy summer!

Garden Hotline
By Adrienne Langan
“Birds singing, bees buzzing,
flowers nodding in tune…
It’s nature’s beautiful medley
heralding the month of June!”
This wonderful month of June is a prelude to summer
and those lazy, hazy days that we look forward to
enjoying at the shore or poolside, or, perhaps, just
relaxing on our patios. But before this happens, there is
still some work to do in the garden if you want to enjoy
a dazzling profusion of color from your plantings!
For best results, continue to cultivate your flower beds
and borders as well as amending the soil with organic
material and fertilizer. This will make the soil more
fertile, and your plants will reward you by thriving
during the growing season. When you fertilize, you are
replenishing the elements in the soil that the plants need
to grow. Look for slow releasing fertilizers that will
nourish the plants through the season. As you check the
labels, remember that nitrogen promotes leaf and stem
growth as well as foliage color; phosphate is necessary
for strong root development and flower growth while
potash strengthens stems and promotes general health
and size of flowers and fruit. The number after each of
these elements, as stated on the label, will indicate the
results you will receive after application.
Remember to prune your spring shrubs after they have
bloomed, and also deadhead your spring bulbs. Do not
remove bulb foliage until it matures, turning yellow or
brown, because foliage continues to nourish the bulb
for next year’s bloom.
Container gardening grows more popular each year!
It is a great way to add pizzazz to your patio as well
as to your flower beds. It also gives you a wonderful
opportunity to be the artist in your garden and express
your creativity as you select colorful flowers and bold
foliage to create a spectacular container design. In
selecting plants for your container, there is a recipe for
success. All you have to do is remember three simple
words: Thriller, Filler, Spiller. Think of the Thriller
as the centerpiece of your container planting. It should
add height and drama to your design. Thrillers can be
flowers, (annuals, perennials or tropicals), ornamental
shrubs, or even grasses, just as long as they are the
focal point of your container. If the container is to be
42
visible from all sides, place the Thriller selection in the
center. If it is to be visible only from the front, place the
Thriller selection in the center, but towards the back of
the container.
The Filler does exactly what the name implies—it
fills in the space and should be medium height and not
as tall as the Thriller. Superbell calibrachoa, supertunia
petunias, and verbena are just a few of the Fillers you
can successfully use.
The Spiller is a trailing plant that should be placed
around all the visible edges of the container. It adds a
new dimension to the container as it drapes over the
edge. Great Spiller plants to use are the snowflake
bacopa, ipomoea, the sweet potato plant with colorful
varieties in lime green, red, and bicolor, as well as ivy,
vinca vine, or even athos. Keep this recipe for success
in mind as you select your plants, and you will have a
picture perfect container!
A word of caution when planting containers! You
cannot continue to use the same soil year after year and
expect to have good results. Money will be ill spent on
new plants when put in planters containing soil which
has been used for a couple of years. Bacteria in the soil
from decaying plants as well as depletion of nutrients
will impede their growth and give you a disappointing
display.
If you want to entice butterflies to your garden and
patio, include some of the plants that will attract them
to your container as lantana, nasturtiums, and even
herbs like oregano, parsley and sage. Those hummingbirds, which are fascinating to watch, may pay
your container garden a visit if you include salvia,
fushia and nicotiana or flowering tobacco. Not only
will you enjoy your beautiful container garden, but it
will be a most welcoming treat to these tiny winged
friends whose visits you are sure to enjoy!
Short on space in your garden to plant all the blooms
you would like to enjoy? Well, join the newest trend in
gardening and build a vertical garden. With a vertical
garden, the sky’s the limit! This is a great way to brighten
a bare wall on your patio or in your garden with flowers
and greenery. Lean a section of trellis against a wall,
and add plants in light-weight pots hanging them on the
trellis with S-hooks. Vertical gardens can go anywhere,
but if you have a hot sunny location, be sure to plant sun-
Fairways Legend
JUNE 2016
loving plants. If you have a half-day of sun, calibracoa,
sweet potato vine, fragrant memesia, torenia or verbena
will do well. By adding some trailing plants as cascading
petunias, black-eyed susan vines, nasturtium, fuchsia,
or licorice plants, your vertical planting will look full
and lush. Water and fertilize regularly to keep plants
growing beautifully.
Brighten up your garden with some new varieties that
are on the market. Look for “Rhythm & Blues” petunia.
This is a stunning blue and white petunia which is more
heat tolerant and will certainly jazz up your garden in
a container or hanging basket. Angelonia “Angelface”
a new variety referred to as “summer” snapdragon
with its long lasting summer blooms will be a beautiful
addition to your garden. Calibrachoa superbells which
look like baby petunias are now available in a new deep
red rose color with black eyes, called “Pomegranate
Punch.” Another new calibrachoa called “Lemon
Slice,” a pinwheel stripe yellow and white bloom,
is now available as well to brighten your garden or
containers. Plant some of these colorful new varieties
in your garden or on your patio, and prove that you
can be the artist in your garden. HAPPY SUMMER
GARDENING!
We treat you like family....

Memories of My Father
By Al Walter
My father was a saint living here on earth — no two
ways about it. He held two jobs for many years—one
full time and the other was three days a week—so
my parents could afford to send my brother and me
to college. During the day he worked for Rheingold
Breweries for 25 years which was located in Brooklyn.
On the three-day-a-week job, he took a subway from
Brooklyn to downtown New York to teach accounting
at Pace College. At about 9 p.m., when the classes
were over, he took the subway to Penn Station, NY, to
catch the Long Island Railroad home, arriving about
11 p.m. Either my mother, brother or I, whoever was
still awake, picked him up at the train station. He then
grabbed a bite to eat and then to bed. He was up at
5:45 a.m. to attend daily Mass. I’m not sure if he ever
missed Mass, but I doubt it. Then off to work to begin
the routine all over again.
Three things my father liked to do when he was
not working—root for the Brooklyn Dodgers and the
Notre Dame football team, play pinochle, and help
other people with their needs. My parents lived on a
dead end street, and virtually every Friday night, my
father played pinochle with the neighborhood men
who recognized my father to be the best player.
My father lived a simple life built around church,
work, sports, and family. He loved to help those who
needed assistance of one sort or another. He was my
HERO!

Where Have All the Flowers Gone?
By Deborah Jones
When I chose the title for this article, I had just heard
the 60s ballad by Peter, Paul and Mary. I felt the song
lyrics were apropos since they seemed to signify change.
So I must apologize if I misled you into believing that
this article was about gardening. Over the years I have
murdered many a houseplant for lack of watering and
would never offer any advice on that subject. But I hope
you will continue reading this article as I attempt to
provide my perspective on our changing world.
A few weeks ago, my husband and I embarked on a
river cruise. We had planned this trip some time ago
and, as avid travelers, were looking forward to this new
adventure. The itinerary included visits to Paris, several
German cities and ended with a hotel stay in Prague.
Last November when terrorists struck in Paris, we had
second thoughts about continuing our plans. But since
the trip was still four months away, we decided to wait
and see. Then, when the Belgium bombings occurred
the day before we left, we wondered if traveling abroad
was worth the risk.
My first realization of a changing world came during
the Vietnam era. Young men I grew up with, including my
future husband, were being called to serve their country.
Each day the newspaper and TV coverage showed us
the devastation of this conflict while demonstrators
questioned America’s involvement. But even as the
fighting continued, it was thousands of miles away.
On 9-11 terrorism shattered the peaceful existence
we, as Americans, had always enjoyed. It brought
about change in our daily lives. Thousands were lost
that day, and the American people clamored for action.
Once again we embarked headlong into the fray. But the
war we were now waging was different. The safety and
security we had taken for granted had been penetrated.
The violence was now in our own backyard.
On the day of the Belgium bombings, our daughter
called asking us to consider canceling our trip. We had
purchased travel insurance and postponing our plans
would’ve been an option. But after giving it much
thought, we reasoned that security would probably be
tight and decided to go ahead with the trip. Terrorism
is a double edged sword using both violence and
intimidation to gain control. And letting fear change the
way we live our lives, is allowing the terrorists to win.
On the morning of March 24, we arrived in Paris and
checked into our hotel. It was in walking distance of
the Eiffel Tower, a benefit as well as a concern. During
our stay in Paris, the police seemed to be everywhere.
Around the Tower they were watchful and carried
automatic weapons, a fact that I found somewhat
unsettling.
The second day of our visit, we witnessed what could
have been a false alarm or a preparedness drill. While
looking for a place to dine, we came across a team of
officers dressed in tactical gear. They descended on a
residence across from us, but within minutes they exited
the building and sped away. Nothing seemed amiss, but
it was clear they were on high alert—if an assault came,
they were prepared.
We continued our travel throughout Germany finally
ending in Prague. Though we experienced more rain
than sunshine, our trip was uneventful. We had made a
lot of memories and some new acquaintances along the
way, but we were always aware of our surroundings.
The world we now live in has changed dramatically.
The 9-11 and San Bernardino massacres have taught us
to be vigilant, never letting our guard down. Though

takes you, be safe and have a good time. And remember,
the flowers always return!

Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. The earliest
reference to a “Flag Day” credits George Morris of
Hartford, Connecticut for suggesting Flag Day, in honor
of the adoption of the American flag on June 14, 1777.
Bernard J Cigrand, a grade school teacher in Waubeka,
Wisconsin, held the first recognized formal observance
of Flag Day at the Stony Hill School in 1885. According
to the Chicago Tribune, Cigrand is credited with being
the “Father of Flag Day,” He gave 2,188 speeches on
patriotism and the flag and “almost single handedly”
established the holiday.
Inspired by three decades of state and local
celebrations, Flag Day, was officially established by the
Proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson on May
30, 1916. While Flag Day was celebrated in various
communities for years after Wilson’s proclamation, it
was not until August 3, 1949, that President Truman
signed an Act of Congress “designating June 14th of
each year as National Flag Day.”

My Grandson, the Doctor
By Marlene Marucci
I am bursting with pride to share that my eldest
grandson, “Dane,” Daniel Funsch, has graduated
May 16 from Rutgers NJ Medical School. It was just
yesterday that my towhead was carrying around his
medical kit!
Dane has been an EMT and firefighter since he was
16 years old, while juggling this with football and
academics, often called in the middle of the night and
always responding. So happy he has accomplished his
dreams and is in the top five percent of the country
being inducted into Alpha Omega Alpha Society.
He is also Emergency Medical Student of the year.
Recently he was accepted to his first choice program
and will begin Ivy League residency at Columbia and
Cornell in NYC. The only regret I have is the fact that
he is not at all interested in the field of plastic surgery.

It’s an antique—
My dad’s rocking chair
Memories are tightly woven into each wicker strand
Dad sat in that wicker rocker
And told tales of his English childhood
With visions of green rolling hills—
Purple flowers spilling into narrow roadways
Mesmerized by his cherished memories
No matter how many times we heard them—
His adventures as an English merchant marine—
His boyhood in English villages
across the Atlantic Ocean—
How tuberculosis ravaged his village
Killing his best friend and sister
As we sat and listened
Humming birds darted through the
air and perched on the flowers
Sounds of roosters crowing heard in the distance
And the sweet sound of gurgling
brooks echoing through the air
Peace and pastoral beauty painting a scene of serenity
Wearing glasses that were scratched
with one arm missing
His worn shirt dotted with lunch stains,
still handsome despite advanced age.
As time passed he repeated the same stories—
We still sat and listened,
In awe of this courageous man
One day he died—
And all those wonderful stories were suddenly silent
But my memories of afternoons
on his porch will never die
My dad’s wicker chair stands on my back porch—
Frayed and in need of paint
Where I sit and remember his tales

The King and I
By Deborah Jones
Many years ago I saw the film version of The King
and I and still remember Yul Brynner’s delivery of that
famous line “Etcetera, etcetera.” Deborah Kerr co-starred
as Anna and the film received critical acclaim earning
Brynner an Academy Award. So when I recently had the
opportunity to see The King and I performed on stage, it
was like deja vu as Jose Llana, cast as the King, recited
those same words. And seeing this wonderful play
performed at Lincoln Center was an added bonus, since I
never tire of a visit to this magnificent complex.
On the day of the performance we boarded the buses
like kids going on a field trip. After arriving at our
destination we had time for some lunch before the play
was scheduled to begin.
Later, as the curtains parted and the first strains of the
orchestra began, you couldn’t help being mesmerized.
The dialogue and vividly colored costumes propelled us
to the tiny kingdom of Siam, while songs like I Whistle
a Happy Tune and Shall We Dance set the mood. But it
was the chemistry between Anna and the King that kept
us captivated to the end.
Kudos to DTP for another well planned trip to the
theater. Keep up the good work!

Mother and Father’s Day are two of the designated
days to celebrate those special persons in your life
and thank them for all the extraordinary deeds that
they have done for you over the years. I have never
counted the number of Mother and Father’s Days
that I have celebrated as a woman in my family or
have honored those who have taken on the mantle of
striving to do the best for those persons nearest and
dearest to them.
The old adage that everyday should be Mother
and Father’s Day is true, but the one special day is
the time when everyone makes a concerted effort
to honor and remember those who have given so
much of themselves to their families. There is never
anything too difficult to accomplish for a loved one.
The one constant is that nothing fills the heart of a
mother or father as much as the sounds of the family
coming for a visit. The flowers, robes, ties, and
sweaters are always generously given and received,
but the hugs and kisses from those very special people
are really all that is needed to make someone happy.
We can all cherish and remember the Mother and
Father’s Days of the past and anticipate those that
will come in the future. But we just have to celebrate
each moment.

Is a Hole in One a Hole in One if Only
One Saw it Go in the Hole?
By Bob Mattsson
It was raining north where my foursome was scheduled
to play, so they all canceled. I checked the weather map
to see where it looked like it wasn’t going to be too
bad.
I decided to go south to the Ocean Acres Golf Course
in Manahawkin by myself hoping to hook up with
someone. The fella in the Pro Shop thought I was as
nutty as the two guys who went out about 20 minutes
before I got there, but otherwise, no one in sight.
It rained a little for the first three holes then just
drizzled and finally stopped. I was doing pretty good,
but not great, on the front (46). When I got to the tenth,
I remembered that I wasn’t keeping my left arm straight
on the take away. The tenth is 127 yards to the pin, all
carry and water on three sides. That would normally be
a 9 iron for me, but it was over water and a little chilly
so I pulled a 7 iron hoping it wasn’t too much. I kept
my left arm straight on the take away and hit a nice
high ball going straight for the pin. It hit the bottom of
the stick and appeared to go right into the hole making
a big splash.
Driving over the bridge to the green, I was hoping it
didn’t go in because it would be my first hole in one,
and I had no witnesses. Sure enough, when I got there,
the ball was in the cup that was full of water. A hole in
one!!!! I looked around and started waving my arms
and yelling to see if anyone was around to see it. No
one, nobody, nada. If you make a hole in one and no
one else sees it, is it still a hole in one?

Up Up and Away!!
By George Young
“If I were giving advice to a young man how to succeed,
I would say pick a good father and mother and begin
life,” said Wilbur. Years later Orville said to a friend that
“To say that we had no special advantages — the greatest
thing in our favor was growing up in a family where there
was always encouragement to intellectual curiosity.” This
was stated by Wilbur and Orville Wright. They changed
the history of who taught the world how to fly.
In 1893 Wilbur and Orville, at age 25, opened their own
bicycle store. They were successful, but in 1896 Wilbur
contracted typhoid fever and was close to death. It was
a month before he could sit up in bed. He began reading
about a German glider enthusiast, Otto Lilienthal, who
had been killed in an accident.
Earlier in 1869, Otto and his brother began aviation
experiments learning from birds. They felt the art of flying
was with wings as birds do not fly with gas balloons. Over
the years Lilienthal designed and built different gliders.
Many were monoplanes with wings arched like a bird. It
was Lilienthal’s death that aroused Wilbur to pursue the
flight of birds. Both Wilbur and Orville began intensive
reading on Aerodynamics.
On May 30, 1899, Wilbur wrote the Smithsonian
Institute in Washington, DC, about their serious interest
in human flight. They received a supply of pamphlets on
aviation and began serious reading. One of the writings
was from an Octave Chanute, a well known French born
American civil engineer, builder of bridges and railroads,
who made gliders a specialty. Another pamphlet was by
Samuel Langley, an astronomer, who had created a steam
powered pilotless aerodome that was launched from a
rooftop in 1896 and flew a half mile before plunging into
the water.
Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, and European
scientists were also working on human flight. This had
started 50 years earlier. They received a French translated
book dated 1881 by Luis Mouillard entitled “Empire of
The Air” that led Wilbur and Orville to observe birds
in flight with their telescopes and field glasses. They
realized it was skill and not motion that birds used---skill
and knowledge. Wilbur concluded that birds used their
bodies, wings, and air flow for equilibrium and raised
their wing tips accordingly to keep aloft.
In 1899 they built their first aircraft---a fling kite made
of split bamboo and paper with a wingspan of five feet.
It was a biplane with double wings. In May 1900 Wilbur
wrote Chanute asking his advice on a location to conduct
54
his flying experiments. He was advised to try California
or the coasts of South Carolina or Georgia. They chose
the outer banks of North Carolina called Kitty Hawk.
They made progress and returned several times after
improvements. In 1903 they built a seat and added a
motor. Chanute praised the work while Langley thought
it a failure. They made 105 flights and were reported in
the Ohio Press.
In May, 1906 America and Germany became interested
in their flying machine. France had awarded them a
contract as well. Large crowds attended their air shows
in Europe and Wilbur and Orville were feted by Royalty
there as well. In 1912, Wilbur took sick again with Typhoid
Fever and died at home at age 45 in Dayton, Ohio. Orville
continued flying for seven more years. Charles Lindbergh
paid his respects to Orville in Ohio. Orville lived to see
the World War two air destruction and said he regretted it.
He died on January 30, 1948, at age 78.
On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong, also from Ohio,
stepped onto the moon and carried a swatch of muslin
from a wing of Wrights’ 1903 flite as a tribute to them.
Reference: “The Wright Bros.” By David McCullough
“The best dividends on the labor invested have invariably come
from seeking more knowledge rather than more power.”
- Signed Wilbur and Orville Wright, March 12, 1906.

Drive-In Theaters
By Ken Aurin
On June 6, 1933, the first Park-In Theater in the
United States opened in Camden, N.J. Richard
Hollingshead opened the very first Park-In Theater
in the city on what’s now Admiral Wilson Boulevard.
Hollingshead was inspired by his mother’s struggle
to sit comfortably in traditional movie theater seats.
So, the idea of relaxing in your car and watching a
movie became his mission. Hollingshead, a movie
fan and sales manager at his father’s company, Whiz
Auto Products, in Camden came up with the idea of
an open-air theater where patrons watched movies in
the comfort of their own automobiles.
Park-In Theaters–the term “drive-in” came to be
widely used only later. The original projection and
sound techniques were, at best primitive, by today’s
standards. Hollingshead devised an ideal spacing
arrangement for a number of cars so that all would
have a view of the screen. The young entrepreneur
received a patent for the concept in May of 1933 and
opened Park-In Theaters, Inc. less than a month later,
56
with an initial investment of $30,000. Advertising it
as entertainment for the whole family, Hollingshead
charged the whopping sum of 25 cents per car and 25
cents per person up to one dollar for a whole carload.
The idea grew very rapidly, and after Hollingshead’s
patent was overturned In 1949, drive-in theaters
began popping up all over the country. One of the
largest drive-ins was the All-Weather Drive-In of
Copiague, New York, which featured parking space
for 2,500 cars, a kid’s playground and a full service
restaurant, all on a 28-acre lot.
Drive-in theaters showed mostly B-movies–that is,
not Hollywood’s greatest but some theaters featured
the same movies that played in regular theaters.
The initially poor sound quality improved, and
later technology made it possible to hear the audio
portion of the movie through the car’s FM radio. In
car heaters supplied by the Drive-In provided heat
during cold nights. The popularity of the drive-in
increased significantly after World War II and reached
its heyday in the late 1950s to mid-60s. At that time
there were nearly some 5,000 theaters across the
country. Drive-ins became an important part of our
culture with parents and children enjoying a family
night out and also for teenage couples seeking some
privacy.
As the age of video rentals and cable television
bloomed, a very significant change in how we
entertained ourselves without leaving our homes, the
drive-in industry began fading quickly. Now there
are less than 300 Drive-In Theaters left in America.
