Di Francesco, calling the trafficcondition in the vicinity of theRoute22 overpass at Park Avenueand the intersection of Park &Mountain Avenue in ScotchPlains "extremely dangerous",deplores the occurrence of afatality at this location on Sep-tember 21st which might havebeen avoided if this ramp hadbeen constructed as requestedpreviously,

"My office and the Township ofScotch Plains have been in

contact with the Department of

Transportation since the begin-ning of this year on this matter,"he says, "At that time theDepartment of Transportation in-dicated agreement with the ob-servation that such a ramp couldeliminate the existing congestionand conflicts, and advised me thata study was being made on thefeasibility of constructing it.

Board Of HealthSearch Turns UpDogs, Rats, Dirt

A Scotch Plains woman refused to leave her home Monday in spiteof attempts by authorities to get her to do so.

The Rev. Mildred Peterson, 78,of 1251 Terrill Road has lived Inthe debris-laden two-story framestructure for 35 years.

Health Officer Melvin G, Kra-mer recently obtained a court or-der to search the property be-cause of complaints from theboard of education, The boardstated that rats exist in the houseand on the grounds adjacent tothe Terrill junior High School.

Municipal Judge John A, Ap-pezzato granted the court order topermit the search because of thenuisance and the threat of contag-ion and infection from thu ratsand dogs on the property. Thecourt order also allows authoritiesto remove the pet dogs and havean exterminator place poisonpellets for the rats.

Police said that about 20 dogswere in the house. Dogs'excrement reportedly filled the

home. One policeman stated thatthree dogs were observed earlierMonday devouring a dead rat.

Frank Terry, dog warden, saidthat the dogs were untrained anddifficult to catch in the clutteredhouse. Four dogs were capturedand taken to the Terry Lou Zoo forexaminations.

Authorities offered to take Mrs.Peterson to a motel for the nightwhile they investigated her pro-perty but she refused to leave,

"1 live here quietly. 1 don'tbother anybody. Everybody isplagued by rats," she said.

The property is owned bj theEvangel Church Assemblies ofGod at 656 N. Broad St., Eliza-beth, Mrs. Peterson said she hadbeen given permission by thechurch to reside on the land forher lifetime.

Mrs, Robbie Mason, Presidentintroduced new.principals Mr,John Foulks (Terrill jr , Highjand Dr. Thomas Nilan (LaGrandeSchool) to members of Council,

Dr. Reigh Carpenter, Superin-tendent of Schools, reported onopening day, school enrollment,Type A lunches, school calen-dar, school insurance and dis-cussed the value of field tripsas part of the curriculum,

FTA Council has agreed to actas hostess for the upcomingDGPC Town Meeting on October16th, This meeting will give ev-eryone in the communities anopportunity to express exactlywhat he or she feels schoolsshould do for children and whatschools should do to provide athorough education for children.Everyone is urged to attend themeeting at either Terrill Jr. Highor Park jr . High on October 16that in a.m.

Mrs. Peterson said she is an or-dained minister in the Church ofGod in Christ. Newark. She saidshe has never had a pulpit but"goes from place to place speak-ing the word of God."

Health Officer Kramer said thehouse lacks heat, water, electricity and gas. Blinds cover all thewindows. Police were unable todetermine which room of thehouse was the kitchen.

The tract of open land at Evergreen and plainfield Avenuesshould be left natural but with some improvements, according toan informal poll of property owners who live adjacent to the area.

The poll was taken during Mon- —— • — — —day night's Township Councilmeeting, Arlene MeKenna, amember of the Scotch Plains En-vironmental Committee, reques-ted the meeting so she could pre-sent the committee's findingsconcei,.,,ng the land.

Ms. McKenna asked that themembers of the audience, whowould be directly effected byany change to the property, voteby a show of hands so she could

..determine..how they felt on thesubject,

"We want active participationby the members of the commun-ity who live near this area. Whatare the needs of the people? Wewant their input. If we have goodplanning in this area it will be tothe benefit of all residents. Theywill have to live with it a longtime," said Ms, McKenna,

Ms, McKenna stated that theenvironmental committee's re-port determined that a naturaltype park would be best suitedfor the land and surrounding area.

The Scotch Plains RecreationCommission had proposed thatactive recreational type facili-ties be developed on the Ever-green-Plalnfleld Avenue site.These facilities would includesuch items as a basketball court,paddleball court, ice - skatingrink, baseball field and play-ground equipment. However ,Ms, McKenna emphasized thatthe area ia not a good one foractive recreation,

"The high speed limit of 35m.p.h. would create a safetyhazard for children crossing Pl-ainfield Avenue, active recrea-tion would require stripping andregrading on most of the site,the trees now serving as naturalnoise buffers for the residen-tial areas would be cut, a park-ing lot would have to be con-structed and the proposed ball-fleld would take up a large por-tion of the tract and presenthazards to homes nearby," shesaid.

Ms, McKenna further statedthat the closeness of the pro-perty to plainfield Avenue wouldrequire a chain-link fence to en-close the site. This would givethe appearance of a "city-type"playground and would be unaes-thatically appealing to the area,

"Our study reflects that thearea is noi rtiCr.jauonally de-prived but on the contrary awide range of '-ecreacional acti-vities are oftL-rod to the resi-dents within a short distance,"

said Ms. McKenna,Councilman Walter Grots said

he agreed with the committee'sfindings.

"Show me where we need anew ballpark, I invite anyone toride around with me In July orAugust to look at the ballparksin this area. We don't need anymore ballparks. It's all a mat-ter of scheduling games, that'sall," slid Grore.. Charlotte Keenoy, a member

of the Scotch Plains RecreationCommission, said that it M "agood time for all of us to gettogether with the Board of Edu-cation to discuss the use of schoolgrounds for recreation. We havethe time and you have the in-terest."

Councilman Robert Griffin em-phasized that no decision hasbeen made by the council con-cerning the Evergreen-PlainfleldAvenue tract.

"Other groups have expressedinterest in the property. TheSenior CitizenAdvisoryCommit-te; suggested that the area beused for senior citizen housing.And, of course, w- have the re-ports of the recreation commis-sion and the environmental com-mittee. The Public Works De-partment would also like to uti-lize that land since they are lo-cated across from it. We wantto try to be fair to everyone,"said Griffin.

Griffin admitted that the areais currently used for dumpingby the Township of Scotch Pl-ains,

"Areas are needed for dump-ing trees, leaves, etc. These aregetting fewer and fesver," he said.

Councilman B, Lawrence New-comb informed the audience thatthey have the right as citizensto referendum any decision madeby the council.

"If a sufficient number of ci-tlzend disagree svith a decisionmade by council, they can signa petition and reverse the de-cision. But it's not an easy pro-cedure," said Newcomb.

What Is The N. J.Mineralogical Society?

The New jersey Mineralogieal Society, organized as the PlainfieldMincralogical Society had its first meeting on June 7, 1938 at thehome of Mr, Thomas A. Wright, 1161 Stillman A%c Plainfield, Thefirst meeting was attended by nine amateur mineralogists, threefrom Plaitifield, three from Westfield, and one each from ScotchPlains, Watchung, and Jersey City, In its infancy the meetings wereheld at the homes of the various members. By Jan. I, 1939 thesociety which had been well received had a membership of-46 activemembers and meetings were scheduled for the first Tuesday of everymonth at the Plainfield Public Library,

In 1952 the Plainfield Libiaryneeded room for its expansionprogram so it became necessaryto find other quarters in which tomeet. The Union College in Cran-ford was available and the societyconducted their meetings thereuntil 1973 when due to crowdedconditions at the college it movedto Scotch Plains.

Over the years the first Tues-day of the month has been themeeting night and many notedspeakers in the mineralogicalfield have addressed the society:Dr, Clifford Frondel of HarvardUniversity, Dr. Fred Rough, au-thor of the Field Guide To Rocksand Minerals, Dr, Carol LaneFeiuon. author of The FossilBook, Dr. Paul Desautels, curatorof minerals at the Smithsonion In-stitution. Kemble Widmer. N.J.State Geologist and many otherwell qualified in this field.

The society is now meeting atthe Franklin State Bank, ParkAve.. Scotch Plains, N.J. on the

first Tuesday of each month, Sep-tember through June and allmeetings are open to the public.

The Program Committee en-deavors to have good qualifiedspeakers at each meeting and re-freshments are generally served.

The society also conducts fieldtrips for the members to variousmineral localities on Saturdays orSundays, generally one trip permonth April through October.

The annual outdoor mineralshow which has been conductedfor the last six years is now heldat the Sears Roebuck parking loton Highway 22 in Watchung onthe first Sunday in October.

This is an invitation to come toour meetings which are enjoyableand informative. We feel that itwill be well worth your time andprobably help you develop a satis-lying hobby that is participated inby people of all ages and all walksof life.

In Our Opinion! We Believe, Monday night's Township Council meeting concern-ing prospective plans for the open tract of land atF-lainfield and Evergreen Avenues brought out somegood points in favor of leaving the land in its naturalstate with some improvements.

We live in a congested, fasi paced society. We• fight traffic during the day and again at night. It

is getting harder and harder to find a peaceful settingwhere one can collect one's thoughts. We need timeto be alone, to escape to a natural haven. Unfor-tunately, sve are slowly destroying these havens.

The Plainfield-Evergreen Avenues property shouldbe cleaned up and left as nature intended it to be.The trees there serve as noise buffers, the soil ;and other geographical aspects of the land serve asgood drainage areas to help in flood prevention andthe birds and animals existing there are impor-tant members of the food chain essential for keepingthe area in a natural balance.

As human beings s e tend to destroy too many nat-ural settings. We take and take from the environ-ment returning nothing. We fail to realize thatextinction is permanent. We cannot resurrect whatwe destroy,

Som,' pecpli? fed that if you are in favor of pre-serving :h-j invii-onment you are a nature nut or akook n:i should not be taken seriously. This is a:-..jcin\e Ar.d emotional reaction to- a very real andi- -e;ji;\g problem.

Children need recreational facilities. However,tlie eimronment should not be sacrificed for thisneed, Recrsauonal facilities are already availablein this area. The people living adjacent to the Pl-ainfield-E%ergraen Avenue land should not have to en- ,dure the noise, destruction and expense necessary tocreate an active recreational facility on the land.

Let's take some time to smell the flowers. Theremav not be that much time left.

Trees & FallIn the days and weeks immediately ahead the

countryside and forests will again offer unusuallybeautiful and even inspiring scenery to all who have thetime to enjoy nature and her annual autumnspectacular.

Maple, gum, oak. nut, sycamore and so many othertrees, ending their 1976 cycle of life, now beckon alloutdoors - to enjoy a beauty which can't be duplicated.

Seasonal FiresOutdoor fires this time of the year cost American

people billions of dollars and account for a number oftragic accidents, which take many lives. The brisk falland winter smell of leaves burning or of other rake-piles's nostalgic, but often produces a poor ending.

To avoid uncontrolled fires, and the tragic results\hieh occur in their wake, the accident prevention unit'I' the Maryland State Department of health once

• 'I'Fcred several suggestions which we think are worth.vpeating.

Among them were:

1 .->

Burn only in areas where fires are permitted.Never start an outdoor fire on a windy day,

.1. Clear an area around the spot svhere the fire is tobe started,

•4, If possible, hook up a garden hose for use in anemergency.

5. Use a covered wire basket for burning trash andleaves when possible.

ft. Never start a fire near wooden buildings,7, Never lease a fire until you are sure it's

completely OUT.

Drive DefensivelyRecent studies indicate there is more reason to

cultivate the art of driving defensively than has beenrealized. These studies show many alcoholics are benton self destruction, and some are inclined to destroyothers in the process.

There are other indications some seek sympathy andattention in automobile accidents. Another large per-centage of accidents is caused, of course, by stupid orcareless driving. Whatever the cause or motivation ofthe driver at fault, it is becoming clear that drivers whowish to avoid accidents must practice the art ofdefensive driving •• seeking to avoid situations in whichanother driver can invoke them in an accident.

It's not possible to avoid all such situations. But analert defensive attitude, foresight and precaution canavoid a surprising percentage of these situations -- andperhaps save your life.

Letters to the EditorDear Editor-

In all of the current con-cern over suspected envir-onmental causes of cancer,one Important certainty isgenerally overlooked: Cig-arette smoking causes moredeaths due to lung cancerthan any other agent. Re-search conducted over thelast 23 years has establishedthe fact that smoking causes325,000 needless deaths ayear.

Even the recent ACS studywhich shows that the deathrate due to smoking is RE-DUCED by the use of low-tar, low-nicotine cigarettes,persons who DO NOT smoke •have a far better chance ofescaping cancer than thosewho smoke any kind of cig-arette, cigar or pipe. Clearlythe medical advice IF YOUSMOKE, STOP; IF YOUHAVEN'T STARTEDDON'T! is as applicable asever.

Because cigarette smok-ing, which declined after theSurgeon General's Report of

1 1964, again is on the rise andparticularly because younggirls are starting to smoke atan earlier age and at an in-creasing rate, the AmericanCancer Society has intensi-fied its educational effortsto again reverse this dis-couraging trend.

Report From WashingtonBy MATTHEW RINALDQ

Talk about giveaways. One of the biggest welfareprogams of the last 30 years involves farm subsidies forpeanut, tobacco, cotton and milk producers who areharvesting millions in profits at the expense of theAmerican taxpayers.

They share in the 13 billion farm budget approved byCongress through the controlling power of the farmbloc%'otcs.

Compounding the problem is that the subsidyprograms heavily benefit the giant agrieorporations anddiscourage small farmers from competing In the openmarket.

Even foreign governments are on the U.S. subsidygravy train. Syria is stocking up on U.S. grown tobaccopurchased with a loan from the U.S. The value of thetobacco totals S4.8 million. Syria's loan covers 95percent of the purchase price.

Consumers and taxpayers are being hit coming andgoing. They are being slapped with higher taxes tomaintain an array of outmoded subsidies, and thenbeing hit again with artificially high prices.

I have been fighting this folly for years in Congress,and have been encouraged by reductions made thisyear in appropriations for farm subsidies. But theauthorized subsidies still run into billions of dollars andremain excessive.

Unfortunately, the extent of the agricultural subsidyprogram is much greater than is generally realized.This has come about because what is happening hasbeen disguised to a considerable extent by the use ofprogram titles that carefully exclude the word"subsidy".

The Agricultural Stabilization and ConservationService sounds helpful and merited. But it boils downto little more than subsidies for growers.

oSo does the Commodity Price Support Program. Even

' the Surplus Disposal Program and the federalgoverment's conservation and soil bank payments are acloak for agricultural subsidies.

The billion dollar giveaway is extensively buttressed,too, by the noble sounding Food for Peace program «and in this respect is being blatantly used by Syria andother foreign countries to bolster their economy at theexpense of U.S. taxpayers.

To cloak the giveaway nature of this program, the U.S.grants long-term, low.interest loans to participatingforeign governments. The government uses, thesefunds to buy subsidized U.S. farm products. But if anyof the foreign governments find later that they can'trepay the loans, then the debts are cancelled -• ashappened recently with India's $2 billion debt.

This kind of fiscal folly has been tolerated since theFood for Peace program began in 1954, and has allowedmore than $25 billion worth of subsidized U.S. farmproducts to be shipped overseas with U.S. taxpayersmeeting much of the cost.That along the way, Food for Peace has turned Into a

cover for "Smokes at U.S. Expense" doesn't appear tobother the Agricultural Department or congressmenrepresenting farm interests.

Meanwhile multi-million dollar peanut subsidies,denounced by the General Accounting Office aswasteful, have been renewed. Under an archaicsubsidy system, huge supluses of peanuts have beenaccumulated for which taxpayers doled out 5414 a ton ata time when the world market price was S2S0 a ton.

Protests I have made against the peanut subsidyprogram have led to some reductions being ordered -•but have not enough to give taxpayers the protectionthey deserve.

In fact, the whole agricultural subsidy program needsdrastic revision and reduction.

Facing an enormous and mounting demand for foodand other agricultural products, farmers no longerrequire government incentives and billions of dollars insubsidies to remain secure.

His works are ininnumerable private collectionsincluding those of Andrew andBetsy Wyeth, John McCoy,George Weyinouth, Edward duPont, William duPont, and AlfredduPont Dheiit.

The paintings show quality:that the artist is not merelycompetent bur top league is ap»parent. For example, "Gettys-hurg Veteran" looks as if he'shcen ihrough hell, grim and de-termined for the future. Vet why-is the total L'fiL-ci pleasing and ap-pefding? The punchy texture and\ aried line speak out freely, Sen--itive color •statements tinglehe imagination. Deft use of the

medium incorporate all plasticmeans to achieve a strong moodand the viewer finds himselfdrawn from observer to partici-pator, Redifer's extensive back-ground in the varied arts fromplayu riling to poetry is apparentin each painting, Redifer says"Growing up in the Midwest hada definite effect on my work inicrms of the myths and legends ofAmerica." "I am primarily in-terested in the drama of liferather than an anayltic artisticpoint of view, I would sacrifice atechnical performance for a hu-man one," "An art is bits andpieces of a lifetime - memoriesand dreams - filtered throughindividual intellect and emotion,"

Rescue Squad CompletesExtracation Course

The Scotch Plains Rescue Squad cadets and probationary membersfinished a light extracation course. This course is one of the Fivecourses required by the Squad, and the New Jersey First Aid Councilto become a regular member of a rescue squad.

In this course the memberslearned many techniques in re-moving injured people from cars,trucks, buses and recreationalvehicles involved in an accident.The class attended a lecture, anddemonstration on the problemswhich could arise in a truckaccident.

They also attended a lecture bythe fire chief, Harry Messamer,of the Scotch Plains Fire Depart,ment, on fire prevention at thescene of an accident. Themembers received on-hand ex-perience with back boards,splints, cutting tools, and otherfirst aid and extracation equip-

A4 'First "AtTerrill RoadBaptist Church

On the first Sunday of Septem-ber, the first month of the 1976-77school term in Scotch Plains, NewJersey, the first meeting of theHappy Club organized at TerrillRoad Baptist Church was called toorder by Rev, Ron Madison,Pastor.

At exactly 11:15, 15 minutesafter the start of the morningservices, Rev. Madison called forhis special flock (those in kin-dergarten through 6th grade) toassemble at the front of thechurch for a sermon prepared justfor them.

After distributing Happy ClubMembership cards, he put prac-tically all of this little gathering towork. Beginning with whatappeared to be about a sixthgrade lad, he gave each of hishelpers a toy to hold. When theyall had their toy in hand, standingbefore the congregation, he an-nounced that they ssere all todeliver these toys to the rear ofthe church. This seemed like aneasy task, therefore, you couldsense the sighs of disappointmentin the air. But then, still in ahurry to get on with his sermonRev, Madison hastily chose onemember of the group standingwith a toy in hand (the smallest, acute little girl (to take all ofthese toys to the back ofthe church. You guessed it.

as the others each piled a to> inher arms she began to drop them,and it w.is clearly apparent that••lie would be unable to carryihcm .ill by herself. The Pastorilu'ii in mock d i^nst decided to

ment. The squad would like totake this time to thank everyonewho donated their time andequipment to make this coursesuccessful.

The Squad is presently seeking new members who will beable to help out during thedaytime hours, all training cour-ses will be offered by the squad.If you are interested, you maypick up an application at thesquad headquarters, or from thetownship clerk. Any questionsabout becoming a member youmay contact Mr. Ed Serge at322-8016,

abandon the whole idea of gettingthe toys to the rear of the church.

When the laughter subsided,the sermon was concluded with achallenge to the group to alwayswork together to get a job done.In so doing, a task is easy. But, ifone person has to do it all, notonly does the burden becomeheavy, but he or she may not beable to do it at all.

At 11 ;20 (just five minutes afterthe stan of the sermon) thesermon was over. As the childrenwent back to their seats, therewas no doubt they'd all be backthe next Sunday,

Fanwood YouthIn MovieMaking Job

The days are perceptively shor-ter and evenings carry a hint ofbrisker weather. The fragrantflosvers of spring and summerhave been replaced by bloomswhich expend all their energies invivid color. An even surer sign ofthe changing season is the annualmigration of college studentsback to the campus. Summer jobsare ending, some reluctantly,some eagerly, as the young menand women head back to theirstudies. But none of this is truefor one student from Fanwood,currently displaced to Los An-geles.

With the blessings of hismentor at the California Instituteof the Arts, Peter Kuran willcontinue reporting for work everyday at a busy special effectsstudio in Van Nuys. The work inprogress there is a science fictionfilm titled "The Star Wars." Thefilm was written, and is beingproduced, by George Lucas andstars Alee Guinnes. The plot re-volves around a totalitarian galactic empire and the film containssuch special effects creations as adeath star, battles in space, ro-hots, laser swords and wizards.The men in charge of creatingthese effects have credits fromother experiences, such as "StarTrek," and the background mat-tes are being painted at DisneyStudios.

Since Peter is a special effectsfilm student at Cal Arts, he had avery compelling and practical ar-gument for continuing his job andreceiving credit for a work-studyexperience. His particular jobconsists of animating laserbeams, making backgrounds mat-tes that go around the space shipsand filming the laser beams andexlosions. After 3 months the 19year graduate of Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School is still in-credulous that he can be so en-grossed in the kind of film workhe has always loved - and get paidfor it!

The live action on "The StarWars" is being filmed on locationin Tunisia and in studios in Eng-land. The film should be comple-ted in December and released inPanavision In early spring, 1977.Peter will return to his junior yearat Cal Arts upon completion of thefilm and concedes it might seem alittle drab after his job. However,if the picture is the outstandingpopular hit that he predicts it willbe, by next summer the studiowill probably be starting on asequel. . .

Plan SessionsFor ReligiousEducation

The fall sessions conducted bythe Religious Education programof St. Bartholomew's parish(CCD) for Junior and Senior HighSchool Students will begin duringthe first week in October.

Who Fits In TheFitness Picture?

munu

u

Most local residents are accustomad to seeing middle - agedmen running around town in warmup suits. Nobody pays muchattention. They're joggers - and oftentimes they're working out witha YMCA physical fitness group. But how come only men? Is "fit-ness" exclusive to the middle-aged male? Not at all, The ScotchPlains-Fanwood YMCA is placing the spotlight on fitness for allages this autumn, and their tests and programs are receiving at-tention from male, female, and youth.

Cardio-vascular testing is the •name of the game. It's receiv-ing attention nationally, and indozens of magazines and news-papers one sees pictures of menand women riding those station-ary bicycles. Rick Sprague, whoadministers the cardio-vasculartesting program at the SPF YMCAexplained what its all about,"Cardio-vascular testing is abattery of eight fitness tests,which give an idea of one's ov-erall fitness," he explained, "It 'snot medically diagnostic. That'sup to the physician to tell youwhat's wrong with you. What thecardio-vascular test tells is howmuch exercise you are capableof."

Mr. Sprague tests each personprivately. He records height andweight, resting pulse, restingblood pressure. Next he makesa determination of "trunk flex-Ion," a fancy name for stretch-ing out on a floor mat and doinga few twists and stretches todetermine body flexibility. An-other in the series of tests invol-ves a hand-grip "dynamo-meter," which is just like theold penny-arcade machines whichtested how strong a hand gripwas.

The vital capacity test invol-ves nothing more than takinga deep breath and blowing intoa tube, attached to a machine

which reads the vital capacityof the lungs. Another test witha fancy name is the "anthro-pometrie evaluation" - reallynothing more than determiningthe unique combination of bone,muscle and fat which make up anindividual's body. There's anideal weight for each body, de-pendent upon its composition.

The most " important test ofthe eight involves a ride on thebicycle ergometer. It is thisbike-riding exercise which teststhe cardie-respiratory endur-ance, ..Mr, Sprague watches, asthe candidate goes for a spin onthe stationary bike. He can adda work load by adjusting a knob.He keeps increasing the workload, so that the pedaling getstougher and tougher, The per-son being tested rides for about16 minutes, and the work load isincreased every three minutes.The heart rate is. monitored thr-oughout, providing the allimpor-tant clues to firness.

Who's the test for? It's forthose who are generally healthy.It's not only for middle-agedmen. Cardio-vascular problemsare not exclusive to man. Wo-men, too, experience heart at-tacks and other problems asso-ciated with the cardie-vascularsystem. This year, the YMCAhas initiated a cardio-vascularprogram for women as well asmen. Even young people arewell advised to take the test,for, as Sprague points out, theincubation period for heart prob-lems begins before high schoolage, and there's a 20-year incu-bation period.

Last week, several promin-ent citizens of Scotch Plainsand Fanwood found their way tothe small white house on thegrounds of tha S, Martlne Ave-nue YMCA facility to be tested.Scott Rodgers volunteered to rep-resent the youth of the commun-ity. Scott's a high school stu-dent, who plays varsity basket-ball and baseball at Scotch Pl-

ains-Fanwood High, with tennisas his out-of-season fun. Scottestimates that he's engaged Insome intense physical activityfor about two hours every day allyear.

Richard Marks would like toequal that record of physicalactivity, but must of his job assupervisor of the entire recrea-tion program in Scotch Plainsinvolves sedentary activity -s i t -ting at a desk, driving frompark to park in an automobile,Marks, who is 38 and the fatherof three, spends whatever sparetime he has in physical activity.His hobbies include tennis, soft-ball and swimming, "but not asmuch physical activity as I'dlike," he noted.

In contrast, Carol Whitting-ton's lifestyle is more sedan-tary - at least at times. Carol'sa Councilwoman on the FanwoodBorough Council. As such, sheSpends many long hours involvedwith paperwork, politics and longevening meetings. The 37-yearold wife and mother of five getsa bit of exercise and activityrunning her household and caringfor her children in an old four-story home which keeps her hop-ping. Carol smokes a lot, whichis of some concern to her, andshe lives her life in a state ofconsiderable tensiqn, with lots of"rush, rush, rush," and tightschedules, "About the onlyacti-vity I get is walking to the Bor-ough Hall and the Beauty Par-lor," she quipped.

All three are appropriate can-didates for cardio-vascular test-Ing, In fact, every healthy indi-vidual in the community Is anappropriate candidate, Tha rea-son we see so many people intheir 40" s having heart attacksis because heart disease has ex-isted, undetected, often from asyoung an age as 141 The sim-ple cardio-vascular testingpro-gram does the detective workin determining an inclination tofuture problems. The factors

which contribute to heart diseaseinclude the amount of physical ac -tivity a person engages in, her-edity, obeislty, smoking, hyper-tension, and diabetes,

While the YMCA does not pub-lish Individual results of thecardio-vascular tests, they pro-vide a clue to what might come,after the tests, In the way of a"prescription," Each personwho Is tested is individually ev-aluated, and a medical teamworks with Sprague to advise onthe various avenues toward im-provement in the cardio-vascularpatterns. The program doesn'tand with the battery of tests, Aspecial program is developed foreach person. It might involvea workout for a minimum ofthree times a week. It mightinclude a suggestion to join theY's new Aerobics class for wo-men or men. Aerobic work isthe traditional program for im-provement of aerobic capacity -or the ability to take oxygen fromthe lungs, transport it to the body,release it to the tissues.

Aerobic work is continuous anarhythmic, using large musclegroups. Aerobic work is per-formed for a minimum of eightto ten minutes at the same level,and activities that use large mus-cles of the legs will producesuch aerobic work. Consequently,simple activities such as jogging,running, cycling, rope jumping,and even walking may be amongthe prescriptions. They're cer-tainly pleasurable ways towarda more fit body! After six weeks,Mr, Sprague tests the candidateagain, seeking improved cardio-vascular readings.

Educationally Speakingbv DR. REIGH W. CARPENTER

There was a time %vhen the highest qualifications for entrance intothe administrative branch of public education was to be a strongdisciplinarian and to have created such an image within a teachingesperiunce. During this era of complacency most students attendedhigh school with the expectation of further study in higher education,and the curriculum reflected their goal. Educational change was theexception, rather than the expected, and the prime priority (perhaps,unintentionally) was to maintain and strengthen established prac-tices within a controlled, and rather rigid, learning environment.Thus, administrative leadership centered about firm discipline, pupilcontrol and, virtually status quo.

In many instances, the recognised strong classroom disciplinarian(a successful athletic coach and/or those with influence within thelocal power structure) were given the nod for school buildingleadership roles. They moved into these positions with the then-accepted objective: to maintain the character and status of thebuilding us they had found it, and as it had grown from the past. Oh!superficial changes occurred, but beneath it all, remained the samegoals and objectives (they had always svorked!). The maternal/paternal relationship continued to flourish, since the staff felt fewpressures within the continuation of the educational atmosphere ofvestervear. You qualified to continue and receive tenure status,unless you could not control the discipline within your class; unlessyour knowledge of the subject area(s) was limited to a serious pointof concern: and/or unless you failed to "relate properly" in thefaculty room and to the administrator's office. That was the "Sys-tem" in most school districts twenty years ago. And beware to thenon-conforming principal, or a new superintendent, who treadedupon the "System," created "waves" or questioned buildingautonomy! The best path to success was to achieve acceptance andbecome part of the "System."

During the last two decades the "System" has been seriouslyquestioned. The student body has changed and has become morecomplex, and not all young people in attendance expect to attend, orqualify for college- Society has changed, reflecting upon the evolving

attitudes and deep concerns of students. As the "police actions" inAsia raised serious questions of the rights of individuals, so havestudent rights been since pronounced. The Supreme Court hasreinterpreted the Laws of the Land; school discipline and controlhave lost their base for operation in numerous ways; parentaldemands have exploded into the classroom, into school operation andits philosophy, and into the very heart of the "system." a moresophisticated and knowledgeable community demanded accounta-bility, the return to "basics" and a continuous, evaluative process.The "rights of the individual," "equality of opportunity," "qualityeducation." 'accountability." and "dollar value" have "plagued theSystem!" . . . In essence, the "System" is dead • and after necessaryrites, we had better bury it - and soon.

Educational leadership svithin a public school demands a "newbreed" • and the retraining of the "salvageable." No longer can thematernal/paternal atmosphere circumvent or influence specific cur-riculum change. Excellence in classroom teaching, the acceptance ofstudent rights and expectancies, planned evaluation of programs andstaff performance, and full accountability to the community, tax-payers and parents are the orders of the day. Decisions for changemust now be faced realistically - sometimes forced and rushed - butmade, for no longer is there the waiting time until all facets of thestaff agree, which in essense could be no decision at all. The ivorylower must go, and with it we must sever those umbilical cords whichmaintain false securities with the past and limit the realities of thetoday - and tomorrow.

Just as the Chief School Administrator's assignment can be theloneliest job within a school district, so must the building ad-ministrator realize that his/her role can no longer be that of the"good guy" to all. Decisions must be made for the best interests ofthe learning environment for maximum "productivity," and for theeducation of young people, the prime goal and most importantpurpose of our profession. A leader must be action-oriented andlead, and decision-making must be based upon the ultimate attain-ment of that goal. No longer can we pause and seek the best possibledecision which would alienate the fewest power bases. Sometimes ithurts to be a leader - and in education, perhaps, we aren't "hurtingenough," particularly, where it will enhance the profession and itscredibility.

Administrators must accept the fact that numerous forces beyondtheir assignments have arisen to question "laissez-faire" leadership.Many adults of the community have become more astute and aremore aware of the inadequacies of the "system" during the pasttwenty years and have vividly, bitterly, tasted its limitations,(After all, they were educated under the same "System!") Theywant more for their children and grandchildren than they had; theywant greater accountability in this tight and faltering economy andcompetitive society; but, most of all, they demand quality in theclassroom and the achievement of the essentials.Fortunately, we have more than our share of the highly qualified,

dedicated educational leaders. Small in number in our District •hut rich in experience, creativity, and internal fortitude • they are, inmast instances, performing within and projecting positively towardthe "new System" and its many ramifications.

They have recognized the demands of the times, the essentialtusks ahead, and the role of the staff, parents and the total schoolcommunity within the educational process. And because of this ourSchool Districi will face squarely and honestly the relevant questionsnow being asked: Are children/young people really learning? , , ,mastering the "basics?" . . , Do they like school? , , . their classroomand its learning activities? Are they motivated to want to learn? , , ,, , Yes. the "new system:" . unfolding! . . . Are we prepared toaccept and work for it? , . .

It will be a difficult decision - perhaps a lonely one; and it may hurtjust a little . . . What was it Harry Truman said about the heat in thekitchen? . . .

Fanwood RescueSquad "Delivers'5

Union AssemblymanAsks Tax Credit

Assemblyman William J, Maguire (R-Union) said today he willintroduce legislation to allow taxpayers to take the Homestead rebateas a direct credit against their income tax obligation when tax returnsare filed in April of each year. He said those taxpayers who apply forthe rebate by filling out the necessary forms each year would simplyindicate that fact on the state return.

"1 resent the fact that ourcitizens must make formal appli-cation to the state for their ownmoney," the first-term legislatorsaid. "I also resent that the Gov-ernor has urged the state's news-papers to reprint the form andinvite taxpayers to clip the reprintand use it as their formal appli-catipn and then also point out thatassessors are not legally bound toaccept the newspaper clipping asan official application. This islittle more than a clumsy attemptby the Governor to make a badprogram sound good, 1 am con-vinced it will simply add to theconfusion of the entire tax pack-age," he said,

Maguire said he will haveapplication forms and instructionsavailable to his constituents fromhis legislative office in Clark, "Iam concerned that the people whoneed the rebate the most will

have difficulty completing theform and many will simply not beaware they arc entitled to therebate," the GOP lawmaker said.

"Taxpayers resentment regard-ing the entire tax package will beamplified with the misunder-standings and the resentmentthat will result from the rebateprogram. Maguire also criticizedthe partisanship built into therebate program. "The Democra-tic legislature drafted the rebatebill to cause the money to be re-turned to the taxpayers on April 1and October 1, clearly intendingto have a political impact on prim-ary and general elections," Ma-guire said, "Those of us who op-pose the income tax program willremind the taxpayers that theyare forced to make formal appli-cation to the state for their ownmoney which was taken fromthem under bad tax legislation,"

Candidates HitProposed StateRebate System

Assemblyman William T, Ma-guire and Donald T, DiFrances-co, R - Union - Morris, charged'today that the state's proposedhomestead rebate system "iscostly and confusing and has beendesigned primarily for partisanpolitical advantage, rather thanfor aiding the taxpayer."

"Under the system, propertyowners will have to applybyNov-ember 1 for the rebate by filingthe application with the local taxassessor 's office," theysaid, "Ifapplication is not made, the r e -bate is lost,"

The Assemblyman said thatthey were supporting legislationA-2176, to replace the currentsystem with one in which the r e -bate will be applied directly tothe individual property owner'stax bill and have the StateTreasury reimburse the munici-pality for the difference,

"Under the current system,the State Treasurer will mallindividual checks — more thanthree million of them - « to pro-perty owners twice a year," As-semblymen Maguire andDiFran-cesco said.

"The director of the Divisionof Taxation, the office which ad-minister the program, has es -timated that the cost of post-age alone will exceed $350,000,not to mention the bureaucracyto operate the program," he said,

"The Democrat adminis-tration, moreover, proposes tomail the rebate checks twice ayear, once on April 1, prior tothe Primary Election, and againon October 1, little more thana month before the General El-ection," Maguire said, "it is im-possible to regard such a sehwmeas anything other than an ef-fort to gam a partisan politicaladvantage,"

The Assu-mblyrnan pointed outthat apply! ;g the rebate as adirect credit on individual taxbills would necessitate the statereimbursing each of the 567 mu-nicipalities four times per year,for a total of 2,268 checks,

"Obviously, the savings in pos-tage alone is worth carryingout the program in this fashion,"

One thing is missinginthe lov-ely Clubhouse - the walls arebare, and bare walls detract fromthe character of this historicallandmark,

Therefore, the idea of an artshow and contest wag conceived,AS Mrs, John Keenoy explained,original works of art and pho-tography depicting local ScotchPlains scenery, past or present,displayed at the Clubhouse wouldenhance the character and cap-ture the flavor of our commun-ity. Scenes depicting our golfcourse would also be most appro-priate.

With this in mind, the formatof the art contest is as follows:

1, Mixed art media and pho-tography to depict local ScotchPlains and golf course scenery,

2, All entrees to be framed,3, First prize and honorable

mention in each media,4, Winning entries to be dis -

played in Scotch Hills for one year- - after which they may be don-nated or reclaimed,

5, Additional prizes to be an-nounced,

6, Judges to be a profession-al artist, an amateur artist, aphotography specialist.

7, Eligibility categories - (1)Junior High School students,(2) Senior High School students,(3) Members of the Golden Agegroup and other senior citizens,(4) All other Scotch Plains res i -dents,

Candidates SayCouncil NeedsGOP Members

Speaking at the Republican Clubmeeting Tuesday night, Alan Aug-ustine and Councilman LawrenceNewcomb, Republican candidatesfor Scotch Plains Council, citedthe need for continued Republi-can representation on the Dem-ocrat dominated Scotch PlainsCouncil, Augustine, who is aformer councilman, noted the im-portance of having competentwatchdogs on the Council, Augus-tine said "On more than oneoccassion the two Republicanscurrently on the Scotch plainsCouncil have been able, with theassistance of an arroused publicopinion, to turn aside ill-advisedmeasures of the Democratmajority these past two years,But we will not have any Rep-ublican watchdop on the TownCouncil unless Larry Newcomband I are elected this Novem-ber ."

Councilman Newcomb, speak-ing on the same theme, added"It itn't just a matter of havingsome eouncilmen from one partyand some more eouncilmen fromthe other party, to be effectivewatchdogs for the public's inter-est you need alert, intelligent,experienced eouncilmen, 1 canthink of no one better to fillWalt Grote's seat on Council thanAlan Augustine, 1 have beendistressed by the partisanshipthat the Democrat majority hasinjected into many council ac-tions, even to the extent of r e -naming the non-political citizenresponse sessions from Listen-ing Post to Democrat Response,Al Augustine and Walt Grotestarted these sessions in 1971as an added means for citizensto communicate with their localofficials. Both Al Augustine andI pledge that we will work to seethat these Saturday morningses-sions are continued on a basisthat is non-political in spirit,fact and name.

InformationBooklet ForWW2 Vets

The Veterans Administrationis launching a renewed effortto advise World War II veter-ans of the high, and increasingcost of holding GI term life in-surance instead of convertingit to one of the so-called "per-manent,, plans.

In announcing a new Nation-al ServicB Life Insurance in-formation booklet, VA Adminis-trator Richard said, "1 amgreatly concerned that largenumbers of World War II vet-erans have not yet heeded our

warnings about the heavy prem-ium increases they must payunless they convert their poli-cies,"

For example, Roudebush poin-ted out that a World War II" V " policyholder pays $12,70a month at age 50 for $10,000NSLI term insurance policy. Atage 60 that monthly premiumjumps to $26 a month and at age 65it has increased to $39,70 mon-thly. At ago 70 it would jump toa whopping 561.80 per month,

A veteran who lived to age 90would be paying S554 a monthfor his $10,000 term policy,

Roudebush explained that GIterm insurance policies weredesigned to be used only fora few years, affording veter-

ans a maximum of protection atminimum cost during the read-justment period after separa-tion from service and whileraising a family.

By converting his term in-surance to one of the VA's per-manent plans, Roudebush poin-ted out, the vuteran pays prem-iums which, while slightly high-er initially, do not increase asthe years go by.

Rodebush cited the ModifiijidLife-70 plan as an example. Itis available to veterans havingpolicies with numbers prefixedby the letters, .".", H, \V, RH,J, JR or JS.

In the case of a National Ser-vice Life Insurance policyhol-der with a World War II "V"

series policy, conversion to a$10,000 Modified Life-70 planat age 50 would result in apremium of $17.70 a month thr-oughout the insured's lifetime.

If the same policyholder wai-ted until his 60th birthday toconvert, the monthly premiumwould be $26.40. At age 65 theconverted premium would be$31.20 pur month for the restof his life.

The face amount of th>_- Mo-dified Life policy is reduced by50 per cunt on the insurud'3 70thbirthday but can be maintainedat the full amount by applyingfor a special ordinary life po-licy prior to that date. An addi-tional premium will btj charged

but no health examination is r e -quired,

Rodebush pointed out that thenew VA insurance booklet willbe available in July at VA of-fices and from members of thenational veterans organizations.

YMCA CORNERAn article recently read on the preschool child pertains to

resilcncy. This I would like to relay to you in this column. Futurearticles will deal with other topics relative to the growing child.Resiliency: For all his small size and tenuous understandings, theyoung child is remarkable resilient under fire. The pediatrician feelsthat with a "caring" teacher this resiliency is augmented. Whenbasic love is communicated to the child, he seems to go unscathed by(he mistakes of those who love him.

Part of this resiliency likely lies in his powerful push to grow. Thisforce that directs growth is noi easily deviated or disrupted. Againand again, the young child is found handling minor, even moderatelysevere or conflicting, stress unusually well. Unless the abuse ismassive, intense, prolonged and generalized, his incredibletoughness seems to be nature's way of assuring the survival of thespecies.

Learning begins at birth, but for the infant it is centered largelyin his biological search for balance in a natural, relatively simpleenvironment. Beyond babyhood, life is not so protected. The two-,three, and four-year old can be consumed by the energy it takes tocope with countless conflicts in his environment while he tries tomaster speech, work out social relationshuips and establish sensorymotor skills simultaneously. Then, if ever, he needs a sensitiveteacher to help him pace his energies. When the child feels at easewith and fundamentally valued for himself he moves spontaneouslytoward difficulty and into new situations. It is as if he wereresponding to the adult*s belief in his capacity and conviction that hewill perform differently when It is possible to do so. Sometimes thatsupport is evidenced by issuing an ivitation to a new situation, byoffering aid, by standing by or simply by accepting the child as he is.

The child and his instructor are new to each other. His homedialect is so unintelligible to her it is likely that he doesn'tunderstand much of what she says either. His eyes are interested ineverything. So far his participation has consisted of being close tothe teacher wherever she is. Little by little he has started to look at abook when she turns it pages, feed the fish when she does or carrysomething to the playroom when she asks. For now, nearness seemsto be communication enough. And already his circle of trust iswidening to include an aide.

Sometimes a child's resiliency can be fostered by helping him beasvare of several alternatives. Many choices will be strictly personal.They may be made out of friendship. Or they may depend upon freetime, a particular skill, a momentary want or a long-term goal. Somechoices will be regressive, a going back to familiar ways. Hopefully,the child's adults will be tolerant occasslonal steps back, andwatchfully await his signal to move ahead.

County HasHigh CreditRating

Union County government 'scredit is apparently better thanthe state government's despiteTrenton's access to far greaterfinancial resources, according toFreeholder Chairman Harold J.Seymour Jr.

Seymour, former Freeholder fi-nance chairman, pointed out thatthe interest rate on a statehousing bond issue floated lastmonth by Trenton was in excessof seven per cent.

If Union County Taxpay-ers wished to float a bond issue,the Cranford Democrat said, theinterest rate would be no morethan five per cent because of theTriple A rating recently given tothe county government byMoody's Financial InvestmentCo,

The Cranford tax collector saidthe Wall Street house granted itshighest rating to Union Countygovernment "because of ourcareful husbandry and good .stew-ardship of the taxpayers' dollnr,

"In these times of spiralinginflation, prudent expendituresresulting in a stable tax base arethe cornerstone of the county'sfuture economic growth," saidSeymour, who is seeking re-el-ection to his third Freeholderterm during the Nov. 2 Generallection.

These sentiments were echoed
