(Most people not having, say, a Van Gogh painting or a dinosaur skeleton sitting in their living room). But Andy Hershberger, associate curator of Geppi’s Entertainment Museum, is hot on the trail of things that people have had in their lives and living rooms, particularly if they’ve grown up in Baltimore. And he’s hoping local residents will help him out. After all, the artifacts for this new exhibit would come from residents themselves. “This is going to be a permanent floating exhibit that celebrates Baltimore,” says Hershberger. The exhibit, which is the brainchild of Missy Bowersox-Geppi, has not yet been set up, but museum officials are now on the hunt for items to fill it. And that’s where local residents can help. Got quirky Baltimore stuff? Maybe a silly souvenir of a local event, a photo, a sign or ad for a local business — you name it, Geppi’s wants it. But only temporarily. You can have it back.

Celebrating 60 years Guide photographer shot events large and small BY JACQUELINE WATTS [email protected] Have lunch with Santa at Salem Lutheran Church, 1530 Battery Ave., Saturday, Dec. 18, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Hot dogs and pizza slices will be a buck apiece. Or wander down to VFW Post 10078, 425 E. Fort Ave., where kids under 12 can tell Santa their wish list and get a goodie bag. A toast to Tom Scilipoti, son of St. Leo’s School, former barber, and photographer of events large and small, significant and not-so, in East Baltimore for the last six decades and more. In December 1950, Tom shot a picture of a benefit in Little Italy for the Italian Boys Town. It was published in the East Baltimore Guide on Thursday, Dec. 14, 1950. It was the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Since then, Tom has shot pictures of everyday life in his city—pavers working with steam- CONTINUED ON PAGE 16 CONTINUED ON PAGES 2,9 HE’S EVERYWHERE! 2 THE BALTIMORE GUIDE WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 2010 Tom Scilipoti WHADDYA FROM PAGE 1 Tom and his Christmas garden.

Marissa Mahala, Highlandtown ing asphalt on Bank Street; Mayor Tommy D’Alesandro Jr. escorts his wife Nancy from City Hall after his second inauguration in 1951; President John F. Kennedy speaking in Patterson Park; St. Patrick’s in the snow; stevedores unloading banana boats at the Inner Harbor—before it was the “Inner Harbor.” Tom’s lifelong love of his city is apparent in every shot. We have posted more of his pictures on page 9. Take a look.Tom’s photos are shown in St. Leo’s Hall during the Little Italy festivals. They’re worth the trip—go and see. Sixty years are not enough. Here’s hoping for many, many more.

Despite the recession, Eastsiders dug deep in their pockets to buy toys and games for children of all ages. Shown at right is the student council at St. Casimir School. Students at St. Cas filled a hallway at the school with toys. Meanwhile, members of the Exchange Club stood in the cold for hours accepting toys in O’Donnell Square. The Southeastern District will distribute the toys. The Exchange Club, and an anonymous donor at Our Lady of Pompei, will provide Christmas dinners to more than 250 families. Thanks to everyone who contributed to a merrier Christmas for all. 4 4 .18 15 Year fixed rate Mortgage % .54 • Purchase or refinances • Maximum Loan-to-value 80% • NO Points • Monthly payment per $10,000 = $74.60*** % APR** • Purchase or refinances • Maximum Loan-to-value 80% • NO Points • Monthly payment per $10,000 = $50.67*** Contact Jeff Collier at 410-477-5000 x 23 Call for details for loan-to-values in excess of 80% A commitment to the community since 1873 www.bayvanguard.com 5 Convenient Locations: Pasadena 8070 Ritchie Highway Pasadena, Maryland 21122 410-768-5300 goods, please.

There’s not enough time to bake, and if you do bake it’s a sure bet that a) your oven will go up; or b) that you will get distracted and leave your cookies to bake till the cinder stage; or c) you will get to the end of a recipe sometime around 1:30 a.m. and find that you are out of vanilla. Not to mention the fact cookie exchanges are more cutthroat than speed dating or the Black Friday sale at Wal-Mart. So what do you do when someone Get a jump-start to your New Year! proposes a cookie exchange? You cheat, that’s what you do. Grab your plastic and take advantage of the many artisan bakeries in our area, offering everything from cupcakes to cookies to cakes to ethnic favorites. For instance: Holiday themed cupcakes from Caroline’s Cupcakery, 1433 E. Fort Ave., Locust Point: High-end cupcakes are all the rage, and Caroline’s can soothe your cupcake craving, from the red velvet with the silky buttercream icing ($3) to the snowman and Christmas tree cupcakes ($4). Also try the pumpkin ($3), available seasonally. Cupcakes are baked and decorated on the premises. A continuous healthy 2011 begins by planning today for successful tomorrows.

Try her wine or liqueur truffles, $11/doz. The dark, rich, sinful chocolate truffles pair wonderfully with—you guessed it—wine, and are available at V-no, 905 S. Ann St. in Fells Point. She also offers cakes, pies, candied nuts, cookies, and a host of other confections. Order by phone, 443-473-9625. Planning an elegant party, or just need a few things for a brunch?

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 2010 THE BALTIMORE GUIDE 23 By Andrew Mindzak You’ve gotta be kidding me. Another fourth quarter lead down the drain. This lead, however, looked to be insurmountable after watching their first half domination of the Houston Texans. Maybe next week they should just try playing from behind in the fourth quarter. This one, luckily, went the Ravens’ way (It’s about time!). Baltimore jumped out to an early 7-0 lead thanks to a first quarter touchdown run from Willis McGahee. That lead grew to 14-0 courtesy of a touchdown pass from Joe Flacco to Derrick Mason, and then the two hooked up again about four minutes later to put Baltimore up 21-0. A late touchdown pass from Texans’ QB Matt Schaub to Andre Johnson cut the lead to 21-7 at the half. The second half looked to be much of the same from Baltimore as David Reed returned the opening kickoff 103 yards to put the Ravens up 28-7. Then, just like that, Baltimore vanished faster than a bottle of Grey Goose at the Lohan residence. Neil Rackers hit two field goals in the third quarter to pull Houston to within 28-13. Then came the fourth quarter. Schaub hit Jacoby Jones for a score with six minutes left, and then with only 21 seconds left and the Ravens‘ defense gasping for air, Schaub found Johnson in the end zone again to bring the Texans within two before they nailed the two point conversion to tie the game. The Texans final two drives of the game were 99 yards and 95 yards against the Baltimore defense. Luckily for the Ravens they won the coin toss in overtime and received the ball, because their defense was gassed. After being on the field for over 19 minutes in the second half and giving up 306 yards of offense in the second half, the offense needed to give their defense a rest. With that being said, the Ravens’ offense didn’t do much as they gained only ten yards on six plays and punted away. Sam Koch, who might as well have been the MVP for the game, pinned the Texans deep yet again, at their own nine yard line. This time, the Baltimore defense dialed up the pressure and rattled Schaub on the first play causing an incomplete pass. The very next play, more pressure from the Ravens’ front four forced Schaub to throw an errant pass that was picked off by Josh Wilson who promptly returned it for the game winning touchdown. Flacco had a solid but unspectacular game, completing 22 of 33 passes for 235 yards and two scores. Mason had a great game, hauling in six passes for 78 yards and a pair of TD’s. Ray Rice had a combined 120 rushing and receiving yards as well. Schaub had himself a great game minus the game ending pick, threw for 393 yards, and Johnson caught nine passes for 140 yards and two scores. Even running back Arian Foster ran 20 times for 100 yards against the Ravens defense. I’m not sure what needs to be done to their defense to help them get in games, but one thing is for sure, the Ravens offensive line needs to do a better job up front. Rice ran 19 times for 54 yards and Flacco was sacked five times and was under a decent amount of pressure. Next up for Baltimore are the reigning champs, the New Orleans Saints. If they thought the Texans offense was good, wait ‘til you see Drew Brees!
