The Fanwood Borough Council
last Thursday appointed Susan
MacMullen as the borough's new
Municipal Judge. She will complete
the unexpired term of former Judge
Jacqueline Drakeford, who resigned
to accept a position as Assistant
Union County Counsel. Judge
MacMullen's term expires December 31, 1998.
Members of the governing body
were split 3-3 along party lines concerning Judge MacMullen's appointment, with Democrats Bruce H. Walsh,
Karen M. Schurtz and William R.
Populus, Jr., voting in favor of the new
magistrate and Republicans Louis C.
Jung.Dr.ChesterR. Lindsey and Stuart
S. Kline voting in opposition.
Mayor Maryanne S. Connelly, a
Democrat, cast the lie-breaking vote
in support of the appointment, which
was effective immediately.
The judge is a graduate of the Scion
Hall University School of Law. She
has served as a Judicial Clerk and as
Assistant Prosecutor with the Union
County Prosecutor's Office for nine
years. During her tenure with the
Prosecutor's Office, she worked in Ihe
Violent Crimes, Trial Unit, Juvenile
and Family Court, and Appellate Division.
She is married to Union County
Manager Michael J. Lapolla. The
couple have an cight-month-old son.
After last week'smccting. Councilman .lung told The runes that while he
had no reservations about Judge
MacMullen's professional qualifications, he felt the council should have
selected someone who lives closer to
Fanwood. I Ier resume givesan Flizabeth address, but she and her family
will be moving lo Westfield, according to the Mayor.
Similar sentiments were expressed
during the meeting by Joel Whitaker,
one of two Republican candidates for
Borough Council this year, who also
voiced concern over whether someone coming directly from the
Prosecutor's Office would be able to
bring a "balanced approach" to a
municipal court setting, where there
is no jury deciding cases.
The Mayor, whodescribed (lie judge
as being "extremely well-qualified."
said that of the three applicants who
were interviewed for the position,
Judge MacMullen was the only one
who was able to serve Fanwood exclusively. Mayor Connelly explained that
this would give die judge Uie "flexibility" to work with (he Fanwood
Police Department and others involved in the local judicial process.
Under other business, the governing body adopted a resolution approving special traffic regulations for
the south side of Madison Avenue,
between Hunter and Marline Avenues.
The regulations, which affect the area

junction with tiiis, the council readopted a resolution supporting funding for the vehicle, which had been
approved last month. The vehicle will
allow firefighters to transport all their
necessary gear to the scene of an emergency in a single trip.
Also adopted on second reading
was an ordinance to amend the
borough's property maintenance
code. The measure, which gives the
council authority to have immediate
action taken in the event of an emergency, was prompted by a recent incident in which a large tree was uprooted and toppled across a local
street.
Officials approved a resolution
awarding a bid of $2,000 to Nancy I..
Zcrbe of Historic Preservation Consulting, Inc., for a preliminary historic assessment of the area surrounding the Fanwood train station, to determine whether it is eligible to be
designated as a historic district.
During her report as Chairwoman
of the council's Building and Zoning
Committee, Councilwoman Schurtz
reported that revisions to the
borough's Zoning Ordinance are "90
lo 95 percent" complete.
Charles II. Brandt, the attorney for
the Fanwood Board of Adjustment, is
expected to review ihe updated ordinance for members of the Fanwood
Planning Board at its Wednesday,
September 24, meeting.
Councilwoman Schurtz also discussed the pending arrival of benches
and banners for the borough's downtown, which represent the first phase
of an effort to reinvigorate the
community's businessdistricl. These
enhancements are expected tube followed by additional trees and planters for the area. The Fanwood Downtown Revitali/ation Committee
(FDRC) is still discussing how these
planters would be maintained, according to die councilwoman.
IZarlicr in the evening, Robert
Soinmerich, President of the
Fanwood-Scotch Plains Recycling
Association, presented a check for
$3,550 to FDRC Chairman Jack
Molenaar toward the purchase ol the
benches, which officials noted will
be constructed from recyclable materials.

Officials renewed their discussion
of a proposal to merge the Fanwood
Planning Board and the Fanwood
Board of Adjustment. Hie concept
would require a council resolution,
which would subsequently be decided
by a public referendum. Borough
Attorney Dennis Fstis informed the
board that the deadline for putting
the proposed merger on (he ballot for

During a subsequent discussion
of the issue. Mr. Meeks recommended the township and the City
of Plainfield strongly emphasize to
county officials the need for the
project to remedy flood problems
in the region.
Councilman Martin Marks recommended that officials also pursue further dialogue with Berkeley

regarding

He advised telling Berkeley

The Cranford Dramatic Club (CDC) was formed in 1918 by a small
group of neighbors dedicated to providing quality theatre to our then
rural New Jersey community. Since that time, the CDC has grown along
with our town, but our dedication to quality community theatre hasn't
changed one bit. This year, the CDC will offer four productions with a
broad range of appeal. In fact, there seems to be just one thing we can't
act — our age! Join us at the CDC for quality community theatre.

place in April.
According to their report, the
Middle States Characteristics of Excellence state: "A basic characteristic
of excellence in an educational institution is the clear expression and active pursuit of its mission and goals in
relation to its students, its staff, its
supporters, and the community-atlarge." Against this measure, the
evaluation team found that "Clearly,
Union County College meets this standard."
On the occasion of an accreditation
review, Middle States frequently conditions its approval upon additional
remedial action and improvement by
a college which is then subject to
further study and review by the evaluators. In the case of Union County
College, however, they required no
follow-up, according to a spokeswoman for the college.
The next review is scheduled for

County Officials toPursue
Funds for Lake Restoration
Union County Freeholder Vice
Chairman Daniel P. Sullivan announced recently that Union County
would aggressively seek state funding for lake restoration projects in
Union County.
According to Mr. Sullivan, New
Jersey has allocated $5 million for
funding under the Dredging and Bond
Act of 1996. The potential for Union
County to seek funding for dredging
sediments out of our lakes as part of
the restoration is especially attractive," he said.
Mr. Sullivan noted that under a
Department of Environmental Protection funding plan, the point allocation funding plan would favor public facilities in a large county such as
Union. "It is clear thai restoration of
certain parks where sediments build
is important. The improvement of the,
recreational aspects of the lakes is an
ideal way to enhance property values," he said.
Mr. Sullivan noted that funding
would be available for the two upcoming fiscal years in New Jersey. He
added, "The DLiP proposal in July
had an early August deadline for public comment. It appears lobe on a fast
track."
The Freeholder Vice Chairman
staled, "The remarkable transformation from dredge sediments to construction fill and capping has worked
successfully in terms of the ocean
dredge projects. It appears that the
same use of sediment from the dredged
lakes can become beneficial fill for
use on brownfields remediation. We
have the opportunity for a virtual
win-win situation in Union County."
Among the sites identified for possible lake restoration work are upper
and lower sections of Echo Lake in
Mountainside; Nomahegan Lake in
Cranford; Warinanco Park in Elizabeth; Rahway River Park in Rahway
and Meisel Pond in Springfield.

Council Votes Different. Results the Same
For Paul A. Battiloro, Susan MacMullen
Last week, through the actions of the WestJield and Fanwood governing bodies, two new
^officials have either joined or moved up in the
lanks.
p The Westfield Town Council approved the
appointment of Paul A. Battiloro. Jr., as its new
J ire Chief on September 9. He replaces Walter
Ridge, who retired at the end of June after
meeting the state's mandatory retirement age.
Two nights later the Fanwood Borough Council
named Susan MacMullen as its Municipal Judge,
replacing Jacqueline Drakeford.
I While the appointment of Chief Battiloro was
unanimously approved in a 9-0 tally. Judge
MacMullen was voted in by a count of 4-3, as
the three Republicans on the council voted
against her appointment. A resident of Elizabeth, Ms. MacMullen and her husband, Union
County Manager Michael J. Lapolla, are planning to move to Westfield.
: Judge MacMullen was most recently an Assistant Prosecutor in the Union County Prosecutor's
Office. Mr. Lapolla was First Assistant Prosecutor in the same office until his appointment as
County Manager, replacing Ann M. Baran. Both
served under the late Prosecutor, Andrew K.
;Ruotolo of Westfield, who was appointed by
! former Governor James J. Florio.
While Ms. MacMullen has left the prosecutor's
office. Ms. Drakeford has joined that same
loffice which is now headed by Thomas V.
Manahan of Westfield, an appointee of Governor Christine Todd Whitman.
: Among the concerns expressed by Fanwood
f
Republicans were the fact that she had not been
a resident of the immediate area and that because she was coining directly from the
Prosecutor's Office, Ms. MacMullen might not
be objective as a judge since her background
involved prosecuting violent criminals in the
trial division of the prosecutor's office. She also
worked in the juvenile and family court area.
The circumstances surrounding Mr. Battiloro's
appointment are much different. The council
had been expected to take action on August 6.
A Westfield Board of Education candidate in
1995, he has taken over a department which
includes a paid staff of about 35 and a volunteer
company of some 20 men.
We expect Mr. Battiloro will be a strong leader
with the department. With 22 years under his
belt as Deputy Chief, he has served as Fire
Protection Officer since 1973 and has been an
officer since 1972, when he was named Lieutenant. He moved up to Captain in 1973.
He is the licensed Fire Sub-Code Official for
Westfield and has served as Fire Official and
Inspector since 1988, and as Director of Emergency Management since 1978. The Union
County Board of Chosen Freeholders appointed
him to the county's Construction Board of Appeals in 1987, a position he still held at the time
of his appointment as Chief.
We congratulate both appointees and wish
them well in their new roles, and ask that, in the
case of Judge MacMullen, that the full Fanwood
Council give her every opportunity to prove
herself to be fair and impartial on the bench.
Letters to the Editor
More Articles Needed on Accidents
To Raise Town Residents'Awareness
would like to thank The Westfield
leader for its prominent coverage of the
recent traffic accident at the corner of East
llroad Street andCentral Avenue. As your
article mentioned, this is a very dangerous
intersection, having been the siteof several
accidents during the past year alone.
'. Fortunately, the injuries resulting from
these accidents havebeen fairly minor, but
1 feel that it is only a matter of time before
aiserious accident results.
; Many Westfield residents are unaware
that there are hundreds of car accidents in
our town every year, because there is little
or no coverage of them in the local newspapers. I urge you to continue to feature
coverage of local traffic accidents in order
to raise residents' awareness of this dangerous situation.

Mayor Jardim in Westfieldhas been

a traditional, gun-toting gangster movie
told from an African-American point of
view. It's the good badguys versus the bad
bad guys. Set this pungent dramaturgy to
music and you'd have all thefixingsfor

the thugs can't make her sing.
Leave it to the high finance '90s to
produce a drama that makes an economic
case for organized crime. The example in
point is Harlem during the Depression.
Money just isn't moving. But thanks to
numbers mogul Madame Queen (Cicely
Tyson), the greenback is now making the
rounds. Problem is, mobster Dutch Schultz
isn't content to watch Harlem's homegrownracketeludehisgrubby bands. And
as played by Tim Roth, the despicable hit
man/fop in/toft Aoy, hateful Dutch is about
as grubby as they come.

armor is sprung from the pokey just as
carnivorous Dutch is sharpening his cutlery for a feeding frenzy. Riding to the
rescue is Ellsworth "Bumpy" Johnson, the

Provocative, absorbing and an eyeful,
Hoodlum is nonetheless one huge moral
ambiguity. In fact, practically everyone but
the aforementioned fat lady is a thief, and
gosh, she's an adulteress in her own right.
Yet grandly and audaciously, director Bill
Duke claims dispensation for entertainmentand sociology'ssake, tacitly informing that the guilty thrills can be rationalized
as long as the lesser of the movie's two
evils triumphs. And let's not even get into
the concept of numbers running as an
economic panacea. Shades of double-talk
prior to the legalization of gambling in
Atlantic City.
Once those moral dilemmas are addressed, there remains plenty to sink your
teeth into. Takeoutthefree-for-allcussing

New Laws Offer Assistance
With Cost of Child Rearing
By Congressman Robert D. Franks
Raising children is a difficult, sometimes daunting challenge. Parents today
are working long hours and making great
sacrifices so that their children will have a
brighter future. I believe that the federal
government mustdo more to help parents.
With the signing of the Balanced Budget
Act and the Taxpayer Relief Act — two
landmark laws that I helped push through
Congress — most New Jersey families
will be able to take advantage of important
new tax savings that will help themmeet the
high cost of raising children.
For the first time in 16 years,
hardworking families will be able to keep
more of what they earn. The Taxpayer
Relief Actprovides$94 billion in tax relief
over the next five years. It contains tax
breaks to help parents raise their children,
send themtocollegeand buyahome. Italso
offers incentives to begin planning for
retirement.
The tax relief in the new law includes:
• An automatic tax credit of $400 per
child for most families starting with the
1998 tax return That means parents will
pay $400 less in taxes for every child.
•
Taxcreditsandtax-freesavings
plans to help pay for college tuition.
• Tax-free withdrawals from IRAs to
purchase a first home and, for most famines, no tax on the profits from the sale of
their existing home.
• A reduction in the Capital Gains tax
rate for assets sold after May 7 of this year.
Tax breaks are not the only benefit
families can expect.
...
.,
With the signing of the Balanced Budget
Act, we are one important step closer to
keeping the American Dream alive for our
children. NolongerwillWashingtonkeep
piling up debts for our children to pay.
The Balanced Budget Act lays out a
detailed plan to stop reckless deficit spending over the next five years. Since I entered
Congress, we have reduced the deficit
from$200bUlk>nin 1993to$40 billion (his
year. By implementing thisnew agreement
with the President, we will finish the job.
That means Washington will be forced to
live within its means for the fust time since
Neil Armstrong walked on the moon.
Not only will our children reap the
rewards of ending three decades of deficit
spending, families will see some immediate benefits as well. A balanced budget will
drive down interest rates, making it more
affordable for them to finance a home or
new car.
A balanced budgot combined with tax
cuts are the twin engines that can makeour
economy stronger while creating new job
opportunities for the 21st century.
Finally, there is some important news
for anyone who is retired and relies on
Medicare. Medicare has been saved from
bankruptcy for the next 10 years. We have
taken prudent steps to ensure that Medicare
can continuetopay the doctor and hospital
bills of our seniors. Not only is Medicare
restored to sound financial health, new
services are being provided to cover such
life-saving procedures as annual
mammogramsand screeningsforcolorectal
and prostate cancer. Seniors can continue

New Bestsellers Reflect

The way bestsellers are being published today, I am going to need a forklif t

it's already over 1,000 pages of heavy

counterparts.
I can think of only three reasons why

you've finished reading it.
The Victorians used to do it, too, but
either their binderies couldn't handle a
large book or they cannily felt that if you
made five volumes of 13S pages each, it
made a lot more money.
The Victorians usedtowrite their fivevolume masterpieces by filling them with
naturedetails. Dickens was the only exception, and he became themost popularof all
Victorian writers. Even Trollope couldn' t

Director, now in her 23rd year, expressed her gratitude by stating mat
"These two men are vital to the success of our campaign, and we all
appreciate their continuing enthusiasm and dedicated support."
The Pillars Club includes donors
whopledge $500 ormorc to tbe United
Fund, ana these donations represent
over 50 percent of theoverall support
to the Fund. The Pillars Club was
formed in 1988 under the General
Campaign leadership of Mr. Kelly.
"People realize if the $500 is divided equally among our agencies, it
isonly $25peragency,"Mrs. Maggio
stated. "This reflects the genuine caring of Westfielders for the 20 agencies we help."

Under Fire.V a program designed to
encourage pastors in their work, on
Friday, September 26, from 7:45a.m.
to noon at the Christian Health Care
Center in Wyckoff.
According to Advent Clinical Director, Dr. Roy Vogel, a resident of
Scotch Plains, "Pastors today are
under greater pressure than ever before. They face pressure from their
own congregations to enlarge their
churches, from their denominations
to keep financial support coming,
and from themselves to perform at
peak efficiency."
The seminar will feature presentations from five professional clinicians and clergy. Among them will
be Dr. Norman Walter of Scotch
Plains, who will bring his years of
experience as a Baptist minister and
therapist to bear as he focuses on the
pain and pressures of ministry.
Dr. Vogel will utilize his clinical
experience as a psychologist to address the need for affirmation and
perspective in ministry.
Worship leaders for the event wi|l
be William and Graceline Aberdeen,,
residents of Scotch Plains and natives of the island of Trinidad. They.
are Ministers of Music at the Jesus,
Restoration Ministry in Plainfield.,
In addition to Dr. Vogel and pr.
Walter, Troy Chisolm o f Advent'
Management Services, and Dr. James,Brix, therapist and coordinator of
this event, are also from Scotclu
Plains.
All area pastors are invited to at;
tend. Married clergy are encouraged,
to include their spouses in this program. For registration and further,
information, please call Advent at I 888-238-3680. The registration deadline is tomorrow, Friday, September

The Youth Ministry of St. Helen's
Roman Catholic Church in Westfield
recently continued what has become
an annual trek to Rowlesburg, West
Virginia, to help improve living conditions of area families.
This is-the third consecutive year
that parishioners participated in the
Appalachia Service Project, where
they learned and practiced skills
working on buildings and relationships with the families, as well as
having fun doing it.
The group of 12 adults and 26
young people, mostly high school
students but with some collegians,
were divided into five smaller work
crews, each assigned a specific job.
The work schedules included building new and repairing old porches
and decks, pouring footings for
house additions and decks, digging
a ditch for a sewer line and local
plumbing, roofing houses, painting the outside of houses, repairing
a kitchen floor and laying linoleum.
Throughout the week of very hard
work, the crews also were responsible
for meals, and daily rcflectionson the
service they were giving were scheduled.
Helping the eight families this year
was a very meaningful experience to
many of the young people and is a
jump start on the service work encouraged and in some cases required
by colleges, according to a spokeswoman.
Financial support for the Appalacliin Service l^roject came from gencr<.us individuals, the annual car wash
supported by the parishioners and
friends and new this year, a Walk-AThon around Tamaques Park, where
members of this project secured
pledges for walking miles.
The work crews and their distinctive names included: Crayola Construction, with Christine Bonavita,
Dan Flynn, Mike Gewirtz, Laura
Krasnor, Corinne Liebrich, Jessica
Lutkenhouse and Cuff Spitser. Father Peter O'Brien led the A-Team,
with Matt Brothcrton, Marta
Capasso, Greg Freisen, Suzy Kozub,
Kelly Langton, Brian Spitser and
former St. Helen's Youth Minister,
Artie Flinn.

*GREETINGS FROM
m GERMANY...Students from Westfield High School
recently traveled to Darmstadt, Germany, as part of a three-week "School-to-.
School Exchange" program sponsored by the Foreign Languages Department, They attended classes at a college preparatory school there while staying with
local families. During the spring, students from Germany also stayed in
Westfield and attended classes at the high school.
Westfield Students Spend.
Three Weeks in Germany
Seven Westfield High School students and their German teacher recently completed a successful threeweek, school-to-school exchange
program in Germany during the summer.
Westfielders Elizabeth Eyring,
Jason Krieger, Jonathan Larsen, Lee
McDermott, Jennifer Oslislo, Christopher Owens and Kristen
Steinbrecher, along with their German teacher, "Frau" Marianne Torre,
traveled to Darmstadt, Germany for
the exchange program.
During their time abroad, students
attended classes daily at the Edith
Stein Gymansium, a college preparatory school, and lived with the
families of their host students.
This past spring, German students
from the Stein School lived with
their host families in Westfield while
attending classes at the high school.
The summer trip to Germany is
part of Westfield High School's
"School-to-School Exchange" program, which is sponsored by the
Foreign Languages Department.
Other reciprocal exchanges involve
Westfield High School students euch
vear in educational and cultural c\-
periences in France, Italy and Spain.
In addition to attending classes at'
Westfield High School's host school
in Germany, the seven Westfield students participated in trips with their
host families and as a group to many
sites of educational and cultural interest, including an excursion to the
medieval town of Rothenburg, a boat
ride on the Rhine River and an exhibit of contemporary European
painting in Kassel, Germany.
Reflecting on the success of this
trip, Mrs. Torre said she found the
students to be extremely interested
in absorbing the culture and speaking the language. "The students in
their travels," Mrs. Torre indicated,
"found ways to apply the language
skills they have learned in the classroom to real-life situations."
Perhaps the value of such educational and cultural exchange programs can be best summed by one of
Mrs. Torre's students, whoexclaimed
to her while in Germany, "Frau! I'm
speaking German!"

Patricia A. McFall Receives
Teacher of the Year Award
Channel 13/WNEThas announced
that Patricia A. McFall of Scotch
Plains has been selected as the Outstanding Teacher of the Year 1997 by
the National Teacher Training Institute (NTTI).
Patricia A. McFall
The NTTI is an annual intensive
teacher training conference designed
for Kindergarten through Grade 12
mathematics, science, and technology teachers from the tri-state area.
Mrs. McFall's selection was announced during the institute's annual
four-day training period in New York
City.
The institute is sponsored by Channel Thirteen/WNET, the Corporation

The award comes with a $1,000
prize, which Mrs. McFall said she
may use to buy a new television for
her classroom. She uses television as
an interactive interdisciplinary
method to enhance and enrich her
lessons. Instructional Television

to explain, motivate, reinforce and
reach different learning styles of students as they try to understand math
and science concepts.
McFall is an A+ grant winner for a
program called the "McBug Club"
and a mini grant winner in 1995 for a
program entitled "Get a Smart Start
— Read."
She is the recipient of a grant from
the Educational Foundation of Scotch
Plains-Fanwood to establish a butterfly garden, and helped track butterflies with her class during migration
through the University of Kansas.
In 1997 she received a mini grant
for a project called "Come Fly With
Me" that complemented her butterfly garden. She served as site coordinator for the GEMS science pilot
program for the University of California.
Kean Col lege of New Jersey named
her as one of the outstanding cooperating teachers in 1996. She has served
as a panelist for WNET in a program
that focused on equality in education.
Mrs. McFall has earned two
master's degrees from Kean College,
one in early childhood, the other in
administration and supervision. She
is a member of the Phi Delta Kappa
Honor Society at Rutgers University.

I to make New Jersey a better place to
•live and do business," he added.
Inaugurated in 1995, the Outstanding Governance Award is presented
annually to four lawmakers — a
Republican and a Democrat in both
the Senate and the Assembly — who
have distinguished themselves as
business advocates.
The award winners were selected
by the State Chamber with input
from several Trenton-based organizations.
In selecting Senator DiFrancesco,
Chamber Vice President of Government Relations Jim Leonard cited

prosperity," said Mr. Leonard- "By
creating the bonding mechanismwhich will provide the resources to
ensure the ongoing viability of our
ports, he has done the state an incredible service."

share the responsibility of leading the Devils "pack" down Jhe path to victory
in cross country. The Westfteld High School girls' track team will begin its
season by competing in the New Jersey Catholic Track Conference race at
WarinMKo Park in Elizabeth on Saturday, September 20, at 8 aan. This year's
team may be the strongest Blue Devil team ever.
"The key word is 'pack'; we run in
packs," emphasized both Ho and Brucia.
Other members of the 'Pack Attack' are: senior Sarah Lechner, juniors Cortney Stone and Claire
Tafelski, and sophomores Heather
Dennis, Adrienne Blauvelt and
Priscilla Hurley.
The Devils have many up-and-coming newcomers eager to run with the
'pack.' Senior Amelia Hanley, juniors
Tamika Waye, Katie Gildea, Elizabeth
Winberry and Erin Spafford, sophomores Natalie Orsini, Claire Cambria,
Tanya Iran and Stefanie Bistak and
freshmen Rachel Ackerman, Kyle
Legones and Alexis Anzelone.
Coach Hornish indicated, "The Blue
Devil girls' goals are to improve upon
the 1996 team's achievements by replicating and perhaps surpassing the
1995 team's accomplishments. Another major goal is to win the State
Sectionals Meet Championship which
was lost to Randolph by a margin of
two points (42-44)."
"An additional goal is to be among
the top three in Group 4 which, in
turn, earns us the opportunity to compete in the Meet of Champions. It also
is a team goal to defend our Union
County and Watchung Conference
titles and to be among the top three
teams at the season's major invitational meets," he explained.
Coach Hornish considers Scotch
Plains-Fanwood, Irvington, Newark
East Side and Kearny to be the Devils' major competition in the Conference and County and Randolph, Columbia of Maple wood, Middletown
South,
Hunterdon
Central,
Ridge wood and Toms River East to

Vikings in Soccer
The Westfield High School girls'
varsity soccer team held off a constant attack on the part of a very
determined Union Catholic Regional
High School squad and survived to
eke out a 1-0 victory in Scotch Plains
on September 12.
Senior Blue Devil Amy Coccaro
slid in a goal with 14:00 remaining
in the half despite an onslaught of
shots by the Vikings. The Blue Devils bad to pay particular attention
to Viking senior Laura Iden who
could provide a major threat if not
kept in check.
The Vikings had two shots which
caromed off the posts and out-shot the
Blue Devils, 19-10. Vicky Nusse had
14 saves for the Blue Devils.

Argyles Slam Heights,
12-0, on Soccer Field
The Scotch Plains-Fanwood Argyles,
playing their first Intercity under age 9
soccer match of the season, came away
with an impressive 12-0 victory over
the Berkeley Heights Blue Jays last
weekend.
Starting from the opening kick off,
the Argyles displayed their great passing and offensive moves. The front line
of Liz Halpin, LisaCamarda and Maggie
McLaughlin were on fire as the Argyles
scored quickly and frequently.
By the end of the first quarter, they
had found the net four times. The defense of Carol Monteiro and Melissa
Kleisch were impressive as they refused to let any Blue Jay player close to
goalie Ashley Jacobi.
The second half saw more great play
from midfielders Linda Missal and Tiffany Smith, who also spent time in goal.
Kimberlee Appezzato and Jessica
Reddington kept the pressure on Berkeley Heights with numerous runs on goal.
Several goals were scored by Halpin
and Camarda, with Jacobi, McLaughlin,
Missal and Smith also chipping in with
scores.

The party will again be held on the

ing high as they kept the ball constantly
in the Tigers' territory and ended the
first half with a 7-0 swamping. With the
pressure that the Raiders inflicted on the
Tigers, senior goalie Jeff Gillie could
have just sat down and relaxed.
The Raiders continued to swarm over
the field in the second half as thoroughly
as the gnats did as Coach Tom Brezniteky
used almost everyone on the squad, but
the Raiders still added six more goals
and sent the Tigers clawing hopelessly
at the wind.
Junior Todd Moser and freshman
Mike Zotti nailed two goals apiece
for the Raiders. Seniors Ted
Sweeney, Chris Cardinal, Adam
Bowser, Felipe Polanco and Mike
Milberger and juniors Tafarie Laing
and Ryan Hahner along with sophomore Eugene Ferrara each added a
goal.
Things were more difficult against
Christian Brothers Academy; however, the result was the same, a victory for the Raiders. Ferrara scored
off a rebound 20 minutes into the
first half and Jeff Gillie had four
saves to preserve the win.

This season some new faces will be
seen in the starting lineup for the Scotch
Plains-Fanwood High School girls' tennis team and their task will be to match
or better the accomplishments of the
1996 Raider team.
Nine seniors were lost to graduation,
including first doubles partners Lipika
Goyal and Alice Lin as well as third
singles player Nicole Schwartz. As partners at first singles, Goyal and Lin
sizzled with a 13-2 record and placed
third in the Union County Tournament.
Schwartz set the courts on fire, finishing with a blazing 17-1-1 record while
grabbing third in the Union County
Tournament and being selected Third
Team All-Group 3.
The 1996 team finished with a superb
19-3 record, tied for first with Governor
Livingston Regional High School in the
Union County Tournament and won the
Group 3 State Championship over
Morristo wn High School. Those achievements earned them a 20th ranking in the

Jazz Booters Put Lights Out
On Edison Dynamite,1-0
READY TO ROLL...Union County Freeholder Nicholas P. Scutari, right,
recently got a first-hand look at the duties or the weigh teams of the Union
County Police Traffic Information Unit. Pictured with him are Sergeant Rich
Puschel, left, and Lieutenant Jeff Foulks.
The Scotch Plains-Panwood Jazz girls
under-10 inter-city soccer team ventured to Thomas Edison Park this past
Sunday where they turned off the lights
on the Edison Dynamite with an exciting 1-0 victory.
The game was a defensive gem highlighted with several sparkling saves by
Jazz goalie Lauren Mains. Midway
through the first half the Jazz took advantage of a big mistake by Edison.
Jessica McGarry took a shot from far
out on the right side and the Edison
goalie moved up to make the save.
But then the goalie wandered beyond
the 18 yard line to punt the ball and was
called for a penalty. Maddie Wasser
made a monster of a penalty kick and
shot the ball into the top left hand comer
of the goal giving the Jazz a 1-0 lead.
For most of the second half the Jazz
defense were led by the fine play of
Katie Van llaasteren and Lauren Hercel
kept Edison away from the Jazz goal.
But late in the second half the Dynamite
ignited a dangerous attack.
Shannon Hausermadeatumbling save
on a close-in Dynamite blast, but she
couldn't control die rebound and the ball
dribbled right out in front of the Jazz
goal.
Just as a Dynamite player was about
to knock in the game-tying goal, Hallic
Mintz came from out of nowhere to
clear the ball to the sideline and preserve
the victory for the Jazz.
The Jazz are now 4-1 for the fall
season.

Freeholder Rides 'Shotgun'
With County Weigh Team
Union County Freeholder Nicholas P. Scutari recently rode "shotgun"
with one of the Weigh Teams of the
Union County Police Traffic Enforcement Unit in their new Chevrolet
Suburban 4 by 4, which is equipped
with portable scales to weigh trucks
that traverse the county's roads, and
making sure safety regulations are
followed.
The portable scales are necessary
because truckers can avoid permanent weigh stations by using their
citizens band radios to inform one
another of the locations.
"I thought it would be informative
and interesting, seeing what our
County Police Traffic Information
Unit does in an average day," said
Freeholder Scutari.
"They keep an eye on our county
roads and bridges, plus perform regular traffic enforcement and investigation of truck accidents when called
by municipal law enforcement," he
added.
The County Police have three
trucks with mobile scales to patrol
the approximately 160 miles of
county roads and more than 400
bridges, whichinclude 280 with spans
of five to 20 feet, and 130 with 20foot spans or longer.
With the portable scales, the team
can weigh different sections of the
truck. They can test all safety components of a vehicle, including the
brakes, suspension, springs, steering
and airlines.
They also check for safety and
moving violations, and height and
weight regulations, which require
special permits.
The vehicles are also equipped with
a Mobil Data Terminal, a computer
that can check motor vehicle lists,
wanted lists, and serial numbers. In
addition, the trucks have the Hi-Lc
Life Saver I ight system .which moves
up and down and has arrow lights to
direct traffic.
Most of the money collected from
summonses handed out for violations
goes to the county forroad and bridge
improvement.

Last year, 60 boys and girls from
Westfield participated in the club's
inaugural clinic. This year the clinic is
being offered on a state-wide basis to

The clinic is focused on providing

the program will require experienced
boys and girls to bring their lacrosse
stick, gloves, helmet and mouthguard.
Players new to the game need to have a
lacrosse stick and mouthguard to participate.

Keith Hertell Holds Skull Session
With 3rd Grade Soccer Coaches
In preparation for their upcoming season, coaches for the in-town third grade
girls' soccer program met recently for a
skull session with Keith S. HerteU of
Westfield, who spoke to the group about
passing, trapping, and the basics of the
game.
Hertell, a long-time coach and supporter of soccer in the Westfield area, is
also a member of the Westfield Board of
Education.
Gregory McDermott, Division Director, explained that he asked Hertell
to give the "coaches' clinic'' so that the
training is consistent and the 95 girls in
the program learn the same game.
"Keith was very generous with bis
time, and I know it will help our program tremendously," McDermott said.
"The Soccer Association has purchased
portable goals for us, and these will
provide a game-like atmosphere. The
goals will be set up at Franklin School
field on Sundays, allowing the girls to
practice their new skills.
"We want them to have a good experience on the soccer field this fall," he
added.

"I moved to Fanwood nine years
ago, and my husband, Tom, and I are
delighted to have found such a lovely
place to raise our family," said Mrs.
Plante.
"I was raised to believe that if you
care about the place you live in, you
should become involved," noted Mrs.
Plante, "and I have seen that one
person can make a real difference in
a community."
Most recently, Mrs. Plante was
appointed to the UnionCounty Transportation Advisory Committee by
Linda d. Stender, Freeholder Chair-'
woman and former Fanwood Mayor.
"I want to serve on the Borough
Council so I can make a difference,
and so I can do more for my family,
my neighbors, and for my community," Mrs. Plante commented.
Mrs. Plante said her years as a
local Realtor have given her a "keen
sensitivity" to issues that affect property values. She is a member of the
New Jersey Association of Realtors'
Million Dollar Club.
Mrs. Plante's government experience is also extensive. She worked
for the federal Social Security Administration for 18 years, rising to
Operations Supervisor during her
career.
There are a total of six positions
on the Fanwood Borough Council,
with each term lasting three years.
There presently are three Democrats
and three Republicans on the governing body. General elections will
be held on Tuesday, November 4.
