The question has been referredto the Planning Board,

Commission RecommendsFanwood Nature Center
For some years now, the Borough of Fanwood has owned a 5.87acre piece of property located off Terrill Road, between LaGrandeAve, and Cray Terrace. Known as the Stemming property, theacreage Is the last sizeable piece of public land undeveloped in theborough, and is currently used as a detention basin for floodwaters. Now, the Fanwood Environmental Commission has hopesthat the property will have another future - as a nature preservefor the enjoyment of local residents.
The Commission, formed only __ -----°- -= ------^---last year, has completed a studyof the property and has come upwith the resolution urging thedevelopment they suggest. Therecommendation is now underconsideration by the Borough

CouncilmanUrges LetterCampaign
In a prepared statement issuedat the April 17 meeting of theScotch "Plains Township CouncilCouncilman Lawrence Newcomburged a letter writing campaignof support for Assembly Bill4-456. Councilman Newcombsaid;
"A-456, Assemblyman * Ar-thur Manner's bill to specifi-cally require heliports and heli-ostops to meet local zoning re -quirements prior to the issuanceof a license by the State pas-sed the New JerieyTenate W-2last Thursday. The Senate votetook place almost exactly oneyear after the bill passedthe As-sembly,
"As a Scotch plains residenti would like to thank Assembly-man Manner for the effort he hasmade to get this bill introducedand passed by the legislature.Also I would like to thank ourtwo State Senators jerry Epsteinand Frank McDermott, who were
.finally successful In getting theSenate to act. Our battle isnot over however, the bill stillmust be signed, and while fewvoted against this measure therewere strong arguments and pow-erful Interests on the other sidewhich delayed action by the Sen-ate on this much needed homerule legislation. Therefore Iurge everyone who is concernedthat Scotch Plains has some con-trol over the location of heli-ports within our community orany other community in the Stateto write Gov, Cahill at the StateHouse in Trenton, Tell himof your concern and urge the gov-ernor to sign A-456.
"This bill does not ban allheliports it merely gives townsthe power to regulate them justas tho towns now can regulatethe vocation of airports withintheir town limits.
"Please write Gov, Cnhill to-day and tell him how you feel."
Notes Cost Of RenovationAnd Annual Maintenance
The old Scotch Plains Municipal Building is now slated for demo-lition, following a two-month study by a special committee formedto consider the future of the building. The committee has come inwith a recommendation for demolition.
Initially, when a former Town"- — • — —ship Committee approved plansfor the new Municipal Buildingnow under construction in ParkAvenue, they included a line itemof $10,500 for demolition of theold building. However, therewas some comment and questionfrom the citizenry, leadlngMayorKltsz to decide to form a studycommittee, The twelve-membercommittee began its task In earlyFebruary,
The Committee was chargedwith a number of considerations,Including cost to renovate to a
for a number of years, cost• analysis of continuing mainten-ance costs in the event of reno-vation, recommendations forpossible uses, comparison ofuses versus cost involved, theimpact upon parking space ifthe building were to be saved,thereby giving up the parkingspace planned by the architecton that site.
Between March 12 and 25,the committee contacted 43 civicand social organizations seekingopinion. Only five replied. Ofthe five, only two groups saiddefinitely they would use thebuilding.
"That settled for once and forall the matter of clubs clamor-ing for use," according toMayorKltsz.
The committee studied movingof the building (which would takethree months and $162,000), Nextthe group surveyed 68 stores andbusinesses seeking opinion onwhether the township should de-molish the building. A total of64 signed a petition urging de-molition.
Physical repair would havecost 150,000 - 160,000, and an-nual maintenance would cost $15,000 regardless of type of use.
Therefore, Mayor Kltsz con-cluded, It's curtains for the oldbuilding and the architect willbe instructed to proceed withdemolition.
The Township Council ap-proved two ordinances - oneestablishing a salary range fortownship employees, anotherproviding for a police, fire andemergency alarm system andsetting fees for connection.
Five new ordinances were In-troduced, Each will have a May1 public hearing.
One adds $20,000 to funds al-ready appropriated for LambertsMill pumping station. Anothersets $30,000 for stream main-tenance and improvement, Athird appropriates $35,000 forpurchase of equipment for publicProperty Department, includingdump truck, street sweeper, leaf
Two additional ordinances in-volve the police department. Be-cause the demand for special ser-vice's Is constantly Increasing,special police protection for anyperson, firm or corporation, pu-blic or private, for purpose oftransporting money or other val-uable goods would cost $5 perround trip from one single sourceto a single destination. TheCouncil would have the right towaive fees for religious or-ganizations or public schools,
Other services of the policedepartment are covered under-- -her ordinance. It sets fees

In Our OpinionGreat Ideal
To sit on a rustic woodside bench along a woodchiptrail In the solitude of a woodland nature preserve -certainly one of the more delightful joys of life, Aboon to the tired spirit needing some respite from thehurry-scurry of frantic suburban living. Most peoplewait for summer vacation or a weekend away to takethat pause that refreshes. However, a small hideawayright amidst bustling Fanwood is now proposed in theform of a nature preserve which the EnvironmentalCommission would like to see established.
No, it wouldn't be a picnic ground, bringing hordesof baseball-playing, hamburger-cooking crowds. Thecenter would be a quiet place, designed to preservethe choicer specimens of native flowers and trees, toprovide residents with some access to a nearby patchof woodland In ita natural state.
Through the years, Fanwood has taken good careof many of the needs of its citizens. There are end-less outlets for recreation, crafts, education and cul-tural enrichment, There are sports opportunitiesby the hundreds, there are adult school and ceramicsclasses, art shows and flea markets. Yet very fewcommunities consider the nature lover or even theperson who'd like a pretty spot for contemplation,a stroll through a wooded area, an education intothe beauties of flowers and trees.
We can't imagine a more timely or appropriate useof Fanvvood's last remaining patch of undevelopedland. Living in the most densely populated areaof the nation, we all need just such a lovely spot closeby. If at all possible, we'd like to see the Councilapprove the recommendation of the Commission.Hopefully, the Ford Foundation funds set aside forsuch projects if they are completed this year mightbe available, but even without them, the outlay of$2,500 if it could be squeaked from somewhere, wouldseem eminently justifiable . Today, several elemen-tary schools in cur district ha%'e the acreage tocreate their own small trails and nature exper-iences for children — an opportunity not possibleat LaGrande because of space limitations. Such anature preserve just a few short blocks from ouronly elementary school might also prove of greatvalue in our children's education.
We commend the Environmental Commission forsuch a thorough and interesting proposal and wouldwelcome prompt and positive action on the part ofthe Council.
EASTEREaster, the principal ecclesiastical event of the year,
gets Its name from Eostre, a Teutonic goddess, whosefestival was celebrated in the spring. Her name wasgiven to the Christian festival, as it was she, accord-ing to legend, who opened the portals of Valhalla toreceive the White God- and Sun God, representingpurity and light.
The Christian observance, this year on the 22nd, isa symbol of the Resurrection, and Intertwined withmany religious customs and observances, some datingback hundreds of years before the time of Jesus Christ.
The Easter egg became associated with Easter be-cause eggs were forbidden to be eaten during Lentand on Easter Sunday they were traditionally served.The Easter egg, though, dates back to the Egyptiansand Persians, and also the Greeks and Romans, whoate eggs annually in spring festivals,
in any event, it's appropriate that Easter comes inthn spring, when the renewal of life is so apparent.Sunrise seiv-cds in our churches - an observance ofrecent origin in most churches - symbolizes theRBiurrection at sunrise. This practice is observedIn practically all churches today as a symbol of hope,inspiration and faith.
Jane FondaMovie type jane Fonda was recently quoted as say-
ing those returned American prisoners-of-warwho now report cruel and long torture by the NorthVietnamese are liars or hypocrites.
jane, of course, has been posing as an expert on for-eign policy, giving the American people the benefit ofher advice.
In her latest charge, she seems to disqualify her-self in the eyes of the remaining gullibles who tookher seriously, In defaming men "who sacrificed andsuffered so much, she reached a new low in ignor-ance and bad taste.

Letters to the Editor
Your Man In CongressBY MATTHEW RINALDO
Shortly after 1 took my oath of office more thanthree months ago, I asked residents of tha 12th Con-gressional District to tell me about any problems theyhave had with the mails. I expected a trickle ofresponses, but 1 received a torrent of complaints,which reflected a widespread dissatisfaction withthe mails — once the most dependable and mostrespected service provided by our government.
Last Wednesday, I testified before the HousePostal Service Sub-Committee, which is investigatingpoor mall service. In my testimony, 1 told the Sub-Committee about a few of the hundreds of com-plaints I received. At the same time, I made someproposals that 1 think would Improve our mall ser-vice,
Theae are some of the experiences the people ofthe 12th Congressional District reported to me;
*An Elizabeth man received Christmas cards thathad been mailed on December 10, They arrived onValentine's Day.
*A Garwood woman received her copy of TV Guide,which listed programs that had already been broad-cast.
*An Elizabeth man informed me that his fiance be-came upset because she was not receiving the let-ters he was sending her,
*A Cranford woman received tickets for a tour oneweek after she had returned from the trip.
*A paycheck arrived at the office of an Elizabethman 10 days after he was supposed to receive it.In one case, a batch of special delivery paycheckswere found stuffed in the door of the wrong office,• SA Mountainside woman received a notice of a saleat her favorite store. It arrived after the sale wasover.
*A Summit man commented; "It takes five daysfor a first-class letter to get to Baltimore, I couldwalk there faster."
*A woman in Roselle Park received three copiesof her weekly newspaper on the same day, One wasthe current issue, the second was a week old, andthe third two weeks old,
*A Cranford woman paid $48 for tickets to a RutgersUniversity football game. The tickets were placedin the mail, but they never arrived,
*A Union Township man missed a critical Interviewwith a PrincetonUnlversityadmlssions officer becausethe letter notifying him of the appointment arrivedthe day after the scheduled Interview,
I also told the Sub-Committee about experiencesthat had been related to me by employees of the postalservice. These are the men and women who areon the firing line day-ln and day-out.
They told me about special delivery letters thatwere held for delivery on regular carrier routes.They also told me about delays in getting mall putinto boxes at the post offices. The postal workersinformed me of spotty pick-ups of letters" that hadbeen dropped into street collection boxes. Perhapsthe worst example of poor service was an Incidentrelated by a Plainfiald post office worker, who saidhe knew of a wedding dress that was delivered to abride after her wedding.
In my testimony, I suggested that the Sub-Com-mittee give serious consideration ft creation of aspecial oversight committee, which would be com-prised of experts In direct mail and transportation —people who could assist the U.S. Postal Service inrestoring proper service,
I believe the U.S. Postal Service should get the ex-perts it needs to make sure that Americans receivetheir Christmas cards in Djcember, and noi on Val-entine's Day, as orw of my constituents did.
Dear Sir:Thirty seven students of
the Scotch Plains-FanwoodHigh School, Union CatholicGirls High School, and Ter-rill Junior High School per-formed an important com-munity service Saturday involunteering to canvassresidences in the town-ship and borough for fundsin the seventh annual "Dol-lars for Scholars" day,The money will be used tohelp defray the expenses ofdeserving local high schoolgraduates in their educa-tion after high school.
These hard-working vol-unteers are to be commen-ded for their recognitionof a definite need and theircommitment to do some-thing about It, Many ofthem, on returning fromtheir first tour, and on see-ing that the number ofvolunteers was smallerthan usual, went out a sec-ond the a third time to dif-ferend community areas tohelp cover the entire nei-ghborhood as thoroughly aspossible.
To our sincere thanksto the public who donated,we add our special grati-tude to the students whocontacted them.
Sincerely yours,JOHN LAWSON,President
Dear Sir,
Our servicemen arehome from Vietnam, and soare our POW's, Americais relieved. Yet, we haveleft behind a shameful sit-uation. The Saigon Gov-ernment holds between 200,000 and 250,000 POW's,many of them not evenformally charged. Brutalbeatings *and more effectiveforms of torture are com-mon. Most of these pris-oners are South Viet-namese civilians who felt aone-man election undemo-cratic or expressed othersuch sentiments about theThieu Government,
Can we, as a people whoproclaim' "due process oflaw," sit by and allow ourtax dollars to finance thissituation? Now that ourown men are home, shouldwe close our eyes to these,actions of the Saigon Gov-ernment? The world Is stilltrying to live down the hor-rors of the German con-centration camps of WorldWar II. How, with a goodconscience, can we allow asimilar situation to exist,supported with out money?
Sincerely yours,SUSANNE NOVAK,
Dear Editor;Last Saturday the child-
ren of the Scotch Plainsarea were to have partici-pated in a fun-filled acti-vity — the Easter EggHunt. Instead, it turned outto be a somewhat night-marish event for childrenand adults, as well.
The Easter Egg Hunt issponsored by the ScotchPlains Recreation Com-mission and conducted bythe Scotch Plains JuniorWoman's Club. Althoughplans and procedures hadbeen well established be-fore the hunt, some incon-siderate adults assumedtheir own leadership roles.The first hunt began be-fore the starter had evengiven instructions. Thesecond hunt began (againinitiated by persons with-out authority) while thestarter was still at theprize table. The thirdhunt « more confusionl
In addition, contest en-tries were not submittedat the proper time and some
excellent entries had to bebypassed as judging hadbeen completed prior totheir entry.
What's the answer? NoEaster Egg Hunt? Grea-ter "mob control" by theScotch Plains police? The,hunt conducted by a malecivic group such as Jay-cees or Lion's Club? We'reasking you — the public in-volved, please send yourconstructive comments andsuggestions to us. We'dlike • to continue — in amore pleasant way — thisactivity for our children.

war has returned home safely, the truth about theircaptivity is beginning to be told. It's not pretty.The men are telling of torture and deprivation,propaganda Indoctrination and countless violations ofthe Geneva Accords.
It confirms many American's suspicions that thepicture as painted by the JANE FONDAS and RAM-SEY CLARKS wasn't accurate. In fact, it appearsthose anti-war activists and their Viet Cong flag-waving fellow demonstrators might have served hu-manity far better had they tried harder to discernthe truth instead of acting as propaganda agents forthe forces that were brutalizing American prisoners.

Wins "RestauranteurOf The Year" Award
What makes a restaurant truly memorable , , , , and a restaur-anteur an award winner? Is It a charming location - a very old Inn,cunningly restored, filled with vintage memorabilia? Or Is It astaff - only the tops in their field, each with long years of experiencein the art of serving food? Or is it perhaps purchasing nothing buttop quality foods, then cooking every Item on a menu to order? It'shard to pinpoint the magic. Whatever it Is, however, Peter Koolurls,innkeeper of Stage House Inn In Scotch Plains must have it. He'llreceive the Geneva Award as the state's outstanding restauranteurat the end of this month.
PETER KOOLURIS
The Geneva Awards are de-cided by a group of top restaur-ant people from all over theworld - chefs, managers, innkee-pers, etc. They visit restaur-ants incognito, as they did sev-eral times at Stage House Vil-lage, They judge years of ex-perience, quality of food, dis-tinction of service and prepara-tion1. Only top notch restaur-ants receive the nod annually.
fl:, KooluriSj .M'sSj a. long history•qf^fastfturaht" experience. . iff'',addition; he .probably has an'in- .clination in that direction as a
.direct inheritance, for his family
has been in the field for 150yearg. His parents ran a res-taurant - his brother Gus beganthe Savoy Plaza In Orange, andhe and his brothers operated theSuburban Cocktail Lounge in EastOrange years ago,
Koolurii himself started fromthe ground up, beginning his ap-prentice years at the Hotel Van-derbllt in New York 40 years ago,He climbed through the ranks un-til he was finally chef - first atWast End Casino In Deal, andthen at Ross Fenton Farms inWanamassa on the jersey.srfbre,Ross Fenton is one of his fon-dest memories. It was the epi-tome of elegance, with actor! andactresses as the clientele, usu-ally in formal attire every week-end,
Koolurls next went to OysterBay in Jersey CityaSfpart owner,and then moved to Stage House, _It's his favorite by far, and he'decided when he moved here thatit would duplicate as closelyas possible the quality of the nowdefunct Ross Fenton Farms.
People today simply do not de-mand the best in food and sarvicH,Koolurls feels. He would per-sonally rather dine out less fre-
, quently but in the top restaur-ants with the best food. The se-cret of his success, he says, isto' surround, himself with ex-perienced men, . His maltre de,chefs, captains,-and waiters are •all veterans,, with,many years ofexperience, A • restauranteurcannot do it all himself. Heknows what should be, and he's
the oversesr, but he's only asgood as his staff.
Fine dining and service is anart, all too little recognized inthis country, he feels. There Isvirtually nowhere for the train-ing of restaurant people, he says.Places such as the Cornell HotelSchool train the "Chiefs" -the managers and businessmen ofthe field - but they don't pro-vide the necessary "Indians,"waiters and chefs.
What's his favorite dish? Hedoesn't say. Everything on hismenu is a speciality, since eachselection Is cooked to order.The average homemaker doesn'tcook delights such as tournedosof boeuf rossini, sweetbreadsyirglnne, chauteubrland withsauce bernaise - so these thingsare a special treat for her. ,Stage House flambes at table-side, flaming ducks, shlsh kebab,etc.
Wines are not only a finishingtouch for a meal, but are ex-cellent as a relaxant and a di-gestive aid, Kooluris pointsout. His wine cellar Includeswines which have been writtenup all over the world - $95Lafitte Rothschild, Dem Perlgnonchampagne. His clientele Is suchthat it warrants the stocking ofsuch a cellar. Distinguishedguests have Included GovernorCahill, many Senators and Rep-resentatives, entertainment fig-ures such as Sinatra and localcelebrity Enzo Stuarti.
They dine in rooms which havebeen cited by the Department ofthe Interior and written up inthe Library of Congress for theirhistorical significance.
Lovely food - beautiful sur-roundings - experienced staff -could a restauranteur need any-thing more? Yes, Kooluris says.An understanding wife. His jobrequires 15 to 16 hou'H of histime each day, from the earlymorning tasting sessions untilclosing at night. He's particu-larly fortunate, he points out, Hiswife's father was a chef, so theoperation is no mystery to her,

Color Guard And TwirlersIn State Title Meet
The Scotch plains-Fanwood High School Color Guard and Twirlersparticipated in the Garden State Championship Competition of theInternational Baton Twirling Association at Ridgewood High Schoollast Saturday. The Color Guard was awarded second place in theSmall Rifle Squad Dlvltion, while the Twirlers received an Out-standing Performance award, but did not place In the top three In anextremely close competition In the Intermediate Twirlers Division,Only 1.6 points separated the first seven place groups, which Includedthe SP-F squad. Approximately forty groups participated in thecompetition,
The Color Guard is captainedby Marie Newman, with SusanKrieger, co-captain, and MissGeraldine Curtl, faculty advisor.For their performance Saturday,the squad of ten girls was joinedby three members of the all-maleSP-F Honnt Guard who carried"Aie colors. This permitted all"of the girls to participate in therifle drilling. Three drummersfrom the high school band werealso present to march the girlson and off, and to set some ofthe cadences. The Color Guarddrilled to recordings of "Hawaii5-0" and "El Cumbanchero.1'
The performance of the ColorGuard was considered very dif-ficult by the judges because ofIts extremely fast cadence. De-spite the difficulty, the squadreceived no penalties in executionfor violations or dropped equip-ment. The judges also praisedthe girls for their precision,originality, poise and "esprit decorps."
Carol Johnson is captain ofthe Twirlers with Ann Chamber -lin at co-captain, and facultyadvisor, Mrs, Adrlenne Zarda.The Twirlers performed to themusical selections "Hawaii 5-0"and "Twenty-five or Six toFour." AS mentioned, only 1,6points separated the first seventeams in the nine-team Intermed-iate Division. The division cate-gory is based on the number ofgirls in the squad. First placewas awarded to Parsippany HighSchool with a score of 74.3 points.In c'ne competition, a droppedbaton is a .5 penalty, so chat afew miscues could be very im-portant in the final results.
Above avurage ratings weregiven to the Twirlers for theircolor and snap, grace, and thevariety of their routine. Thegroup was also praised for theirteam work and precision, andtheir sportsmanship and atti-tude,
Last Saturday was ths firsttime :he Color Guard and Twir-lers performed this year as in-dividual groups in a competition.Performing together in lastFall's Halloween Parade in Edi-son, the combined squads wonfirst place in ths Senior TwirlingSquad competition. The fine per-formance of both squads at Ridge-wood and its reception by the
other participants and the aud-ience reflects favorably, not onlyon the girls and boys, but alsoon their school and the communi-ties they represent.

Plan Nite WithSenatorialCandidates
A "An Evening With Jerry andPete" has been planned by theScotch Plains Republican Clubfor April 24, 1973 at the Italian-American Club on Valley Ave. InSeech Plains, according to Wil-liam Franklin, Mr. Franklin,the President of the Scotch PlainsRepublican Club, stated that anExecutive Meeting of the Club washeld at his home last week atwhich It was decided to pro-vide the membership withprograms which ars both currentand interesting, With the votingdistricts having been recently re-drawn and all seats in the Legis-lature coming up for election, ac-cording to Mr, Franklin, a nightwith Senator jerry Epstein andAssemblyman Peter McDonoughwould be most appropriate at thistime,
Mr, Franklin said that heexpects both legislators to dis-cuss past accomplishments andtheir plans for the future afterwhich questions with respectto their respective positions willbe asked by members of the club.Since both men have representedtheir constituencies well and theyare currently vying for one Sen-atorial post in the Primary elec-tion, this will be a splendid op-portunity for club members andfriends to digest both points ofview prior to the Primary,. Mr, Franklin urged mem-bers to be present at 8>,00 p.m.,and friends as well as interes-ted residents are also invited.

New Election DistrictsEqualize Populations
The election ballot In New Jersey this year will have an entirelynew look, with voters electing state legislators for new legislativedistricts in the coming November election. ^
which
The Apportionment Commis-sion deliberated for almost oneyear in devising the nsw dis-tricting plan. Members of theCom-nlssion Included State Sena-tor Raymond H. Batsman (R-Somerset)-, Co-Chairman, for-mer State' Senator Richard Cof-fee (D-Mercer): Co-Chalrman
former Freeholder Thomas Far-ley (R-Essex); AssemblymanKenneth Wilkle (R-Burlington);former Bergen County Re-publican Chairman Anthony Sta-tile; Ocean County RepublicanState Committeeman FranklinFischer; State Senator WilliamV, Mjsto (D-Hudson); Stats Sen-
ator Ralph DeRose (D-Essex);Gloucester County DemocraticState Commltteeman Harris Cot-ton, and Camden County Free-holder Director Alan Vogelson(D-Camden)., On the' final ap-portionment vote, Bateman-andFarley voted against the measurein an 8-2 decision.
The new plan, which is re-quired by federal and state lawto equalize the population of thedistricts by using the 1970 Fed-eral Census figures, was agreedon by the New jersey Apportion-ment Commission on March 8,1973. Tins 10-mamber biparti-san group is charged under theprovisions of the State Constitu-tion with the responsibility toredefine legislative districts af-ter each Federal decennialcensus.
Gone is the present scheme Inwhich most State Senators wereelected from 15 districts basedalmost solely on whole countyboundaries, instead, there willbe 40 new districts from each ofwhich one senator and two as-semblymen will be elected.
The new plan greatly Improvesthe population equality of thedistricts. The 1971 plan, whichwas declared In violation of theFederal Constitution by the StateSupreme Court, had a varianceof approximately 28 percent fromthe most populous to the leastpopulous district. Under the new.plan the comparable figure Is fourpercent. Furthermore, under thenew plan the average deviationfrom the Ideal district popula-tion of 179,278, is only sixtenthsof one percent.

guidelines is directed at the morepopulous counties such asBergen, Essex, Hudson and Mid-dlesex, which will now be divi-ded into several legislative dis-tricts, rather than elect senatorsand assemblymen at-large fromthe entire county,
presently the new plan Is be-ing challenged in the courts.Three separate suits have beeninstituted In the State SupremeCourt for plaintiffs in Burling-ton, Ocean (Manchester Town-ship) and Morris Counties. Thesesuits have since been consolida-ted before the Burlington CountySuperior.Court, with initial a r -guments to be heard this week.
If the new plan survives thecourt challenges, It should re-main in effect until after the nextcensus in 1980. This would pro-vide the state's voters with agood opportunity to become fa-miliar with the legislative dis-tricts, unlike the situation In thelast four legislative elections•when three different districtingplans were used.

Servicemen Are Home-Committee Closes ShopAfter Six Year Effort
Last weak, the long-established Fanwood Sarvicemen's Committeeclosed up shop, but the occasion was a happy one. With the Vietnamconflict over and all the boys back in the U.S., their purpose becamenon-existent. Hosvever, for a long six years, the committee pro-vided gifts, local news and most important, an awareness that peoplein Scotch plains and Fanwood were remembering the boys servingwith the Armed Forces.
The Committee had an inaus-picious beginning. In 1967, Mrs.jean Anderson knit an afghanand raffled it off to raise moneyfor a few gifts for a handful oflocal servicemen. She got a fewfriends Interested in her pro-ject, and before long, there weremany women meeting monthly tosupply that hometown touch to lo-cal youth, At its peak, the Com-mittee had a membership of 20to 25 members, with a nucleusof about 15 forming the hard-svorking core.
They sent packages every nowand then, The most popular itemby far was homemade cookies,which the members made at homeand brought to packing sessionsat their monthly meetings In theFanwood Community House, The' 'care" packages also includeditems which were hard to get inVietnam - such things as writingpaper, envelopes, canned pud-dings and meats, sox sometimes,nail clippers and nail files, candyand gum. At Christmas, theGirl Scouts and Brownies fromFanwood troops pitched in tohelp, since the packages werelarge at that time.
Believe it or not, according tothe club's last president, Mrs,Ann Kolvites of Madison Ave-nue, Fanwood, there was diffi-culty sometimes in finding theservicemen. Though there wererepeated notices In local news-papers , not one person evercalled the committee to notifythem of a serviceman to be re -
membered. Instead, the womenobtained names through word ofmouth. Friends and acquain-tances, shopowners and relativeskept them posted on the latestentries Into the service. Thewomen then called the service-man's family and got a bit ofinformation about interests, bir-thday, etc. The serviceman wenton the list - for cards at birth-day, Christmas, Easter, Hallow-een, Thanksgiving, etc.
The task was a rewarding onefor the women, Mrs, Kolvitessays. The boys agreed. Oneactually sent the club a plaqueexpressing appreciation for themany expressions of kindness.Many others wrote letters. Hereare some excerpts;
"I received your Easter gift,salt water taffy, Valentine's Daygift and again another packageof cookies and needles, books andstationery. I have been ableto share most of these gifts withmy friends and troops and eachtime I do, I hope a little of thespirit with which it was sent isshared also,"
''Hi. 1 just wanted to drop aline to your committee sayingthank you very much for the birth-day gift. It sure Is nice beingfrom a town where people takethe time and effort to help andremember the local service-men."
"1 appreciate your kindness tome and feel that all servicemenfrom Fanwood are lucky to have
a club which remembers themso often, We all love to hearfrom our hometown."
"Dear Friends, We wish tothank you very much for thecards, candy and cookies thatyou have sent us. This is a won-derful thing that you are doingfor the men Fanwood has sta-tioned all over the world.When we get things like thatfrom home. It doesn't make ushomesick", It makes us feel goodjust knowing that there are peo-ple back home that are thinkingabout us,"
These are but a smattering ofthe outpouring of appreciationthe' women received from theFanwood serviceman, A total of120 of them were remembered.
They have donated four booksto the Fanwood Memorial Li-brary in honor of four deceasedservicemen, and a yew In honorof all of the men who servednow graces the library lawn.
The women have ended theirlong years of service, just asthe boys have. The efforts ofboth will long be remembered.Such gestures as the FanwoodServicemen's Committee arethe stuff of which hometown tiesare made!

One Gal's ViewBy ANN RINALDI
Sha was just about forty. She has two kids and she is an artist.She works for an advertising agency and, on the side she doesthe artwork for a weekly newspaper. She Is dedicated to her talentand 1 strongly suspect that It is a great part of her life and that sheIs guilty about it.
She Is, in effect, so much like me that I could not help listeningto her as if to a recording of my Innermost feelings. I put them downhere almost as if they were my own:
"You wonder sometimes if you will ever clear the dishes off thesink. Sometimes getting the sink cleaned off of the breakfastthings seems like the most important challenge of the day to youbefore you leave for work. It's like separating the days, the mereaction of putting the dishes away before you must use them again, ormaking the beds before another night dictates that you must sleep,It's like Moses separating the Red Sea and it becomas so importantto you, suddenly, that you accomplish these trivial little things tomake some order out of your life,"
"There is no order. We fool ourselves. The days run Into weeksand those into years and other women look at you and say, 'Aren'tyou lucky, you have a career.1 but you know that if you could onlyclean out the hall closet life would have justification. The day youget to the hall closet you know all the problems will be solved.Your husband will forgive you for not Ironing his no-iron shirtsand the bank will forgive you for being late with the mortgage andthe kids will forgive you for working in the first place."
"Which they will never understand. They resent you, the kids.They want all the extra thinga that the money you earn buys but theyresent you just the same. And the guilt just about kills you. Andyour husband, well, no matter what they do with the women's libthing he resents it, 'Sure, I'm proud of you,' he says, but you knowhe'd rather have you home baking rhubarb pie like his mother did,"
"And your mother-in-law? Well, she always told him he shouldn'thave married you but he wouldn't listen to you, So she sends himhome-made date and nut bread in the mail and reminds him of theover-weight girl with the lisp who he almost married who is mar-ried to an insurance salesman and has six children now,'*
And you stopped at two, And your husband wants more. Menalways do. And you know he'd like you to give up the whole careerbit and have the third baby and save your marriage. But you knowthat sacrificing yourself (as a person, not even as a woman) wouldbe the quickest way to throw the whole marriage right out the win-dow. And why doesn't he know this too? You wonder."
"You wonder, sometimes, too, what the whole marriage thing isall about. There's more money than ever now with you workingbut you argue more about things that mean less. And the a r -guments stretch Into days and the word 'divorce' Is flung back andforth and that never occurred to you before and how would you goabout it? And how can you this month when the car needs a tune upand the dog needs his shots at the vot and you've got six more in-stallments to make on the encyclopedias.
"So you dig in and the argument blows over. And he grows up-alittle and you understand a lot more. The kids are growing up toofast and getting too fresh but in the morning, still sleeping in bedthey are so beautiful and you can still hug them and they won'tresist and you look at them and see 'beginning' written all over themand you are ready to face another day,
"It 's no different from the last. Big deal, so you're using yourtalent, fulfilling yourself. Does anybody care? Does the boss, forwhom you're working your callouses to the bone? Your husband?Your kids? You know your boss thinks more of his efficient sec-retary, that your husband would rather have that rhubarb pie andthe kids want to know why you can't make peanut butter cookieslike so-and-so's mother.
"You've yourself to answer to. That's the hardest par t .""Sometimes I'd like to run away, I really think about It, Give
me a plane ticket or a seat on a greyhound bus and I'd go in aminute. Where? The where doesn't matter. It's the running thatcounts. And that, of course, doesn't even matter unless you knowthat if you ran you'd be missed."
"That's what we all want, in the end. To know we'd be mis-sed , , , , "

Six boys from Park junior High School visited the Meteorologydepartment at Rutgers University, They took a tour throughoutthe department and observed the weather station and Its instru-ments. This trip was part of a science project by Gerald Piltzerand John Darke, under the direction of Mr. Steve- Babin,

Jeff Meredith of Irvington, achemist with C, N. Burman Co.,of Paterson, thinks the plumbingclass Is great because studentsbring their own problems toschool.
The lone woman in the class,Mrs. May Ho of Wastfleld, has
bean fondly nicknamed "joss-phlna" by her male counterparts.Her husband Don initially atten-ded the first five sessions of theplumbing course bu", ha became illand couldn't continue.
Because of the enthusiasm gen-erated by the Saturday morningclasses, UCTI will be offeringsimilar intensive fivu-wuek pro-grams bagln.iinf April 23, wh'.chwill continue until summer cour-ses begin. Among the classesbeing added are "Until the Law-yer Comas," designed to acquaintlaymen with laws dealing withcontracts, real estate and autopurchases, wills, criminal ar-rests, and marital status;"Practical House Wiring,""Creative Cooking on a Budget,""Motorcycle Tune - up," and"Practical Residential Air -Conditioning Installation."
"Do-it-yourself is the onlyway we can survive these days,"commented Mr, Kay.
IKING
Courses ForHomeowners
While many working adults Hein deep slumber on Saturdaymornings catching up ' whatthey've missed, others energeti-cally arise to fix leaky faucets,prepare a stuffed flounder, r e -pair their lawn mowers, and
- condition their outboard motorsfor the spring,
Tna action is nicknamed "pra-ctical survival" by the partici-pants and the scene is UnionCounty Technical Institute, not
* your neighbor's backyard,For the first time this year, the
* Division of Continuing Educa-tion offered a variety of coursesdesigned to acquaint homeowners
2 with the maintenance and repair\ of common household equlpmehi. '
Courses ranged from Party andBuffet Cooking and PracticalHouse Plumbing to Maintenanceof Gasoline Powered Lawnmow-ers, Snowblowers, and Mini-bikes.
The response was overwhelm-ing.
According to Richard Kay, di-rector of continuing education,
• hundreds of adults welcomed theopportunity to attend the Satur-day morning classes. The stu-dent body was largely made upof professional working people,men and women tired of payingmaintenance bills for a job theycould do themselves, and manyfelt they ought to know somethingabout equipment operations fortheir own protection.
"There are just too many in-competent mechanics," statedJoseph Lozowski of Mountain-side, a senior system analystwith Esso International, in ex-plaining why he enrolled in Our-board Motor Maintenance Re-pair. The owner of a 14-footaluminum rowboat, a 15-foot fi-berglass boat, and three motors,Mr. Lozowski finds it worthwhileto be able to winterize his ownequipment, service the engineshimself, and understand chs gen-eral operations.
In a Iwanmower maintenanceand repair class at UCTI stu-dants ea n be found on Satur-days repairing chain saws, theirown mowers, and other gas-pawered engines.
"This course and all the Sat-urday morning classes at UnionCounty Tech are long overduefor homeowners," said JosephCutrona of Clark, "Repairsare costly and take too muchtime in the shop,"
Practical House plumbing at-tracted a variety of personall-"ties at UCTI, with everyone de-termined to learn how to replacewashers, understand the instal-lation of dishwashers, and be ableto repair faulty sinks and toilets,hot waver heaters, and boilers.

Two Wins ForPark Nine
The 1973 Park baseball teamis off to a running start as theRaiders have posted 2 victoriesto date. In both games the Rai-ders have had complete controlover their opponents.
In their opener Park defeatedHillside by a score of 8-2. JimBaumgariner went the distancefor Park as he posted 4 strikeouts and allowed only 5 hits.
Ed. Reilly and Jim Baum-gartner led the offensive attackeach receiving 2 hits. Ed Riellyhad the only extra base hit whenhe doubled in the 6th Inning toscore teammate Baumgartner toadd to the Raiders lead. AgainstOrange Avenue the big blue ma-chine scored 4 runs In the secondinning on a bases loaded tripleby Bau-.iiprtner. R'Jllly alsoposted his second double forthe season during this contest.Tha Raiders handed Orange Ave-nue their 3rd defeat by a scoreof 9-0.
Ken Lesniak was credited withthe shut out aa he struck out 8batters and walked only 2. Kenpitched himself out of many haz-ardous positions to keep his hopefor the shut out.
The Raiders next game Is Mon-day , April 23 against Edison,
Roberto Clements- has alsolooked good. Some thinn thisIs the year of the Cubs. Andthe Cubs may be in theeasier race—In the easterndivision.
That western division racelooks tight. C i n c i n n a t i ,Houston, Los Angeles (im-proved' and Atlanta (alsoimproved) are likely ui be inU. and any of these four'they finis ned ; , 2, 3, 4 las1,season) could win k. Per-haps San Francisco also hasa chanei'. Onlv San Diep.-sesrns out of it.
In the east, lew thinkMontreal orPhiladelphia canpull It off. Nor is tnss Mets1
stock very high. It seems tobe between Pittsburgh, Chi-cago and Si. Louis.

A recent article in the Better Homes & Gardens Magazineraised some of the following questions about pre-school educa-tion, What should you look for in a pre-school program? Whatshould your pre-school child be learning? Can chiHhuod educationbe harmful? When should your child start? Do some childrenget more out of pre-school than others? Some of the answerswere . . . . "You can get a good idea of the center's quality simplyby looking at the children. If the children are just sitting aroundand doing very little, that's a bad sign, If they're smiling and in-volved in activities and speaking freely, then you know you're seeinga good program in action He should be learning to learn.He should be learning discipline - the kind that comes from within,not the kid that's forced. He should learn that he can succeed andthat he is competent. And he should acquire a zest for learning . ., .A question to ask yourself . . . Is the child increasing his feelingsof self-confidence, his ability to reason and to solve problems, hisskills in communication, and his ability to work with other child-ren? Most early childhood development authorities, and parentsof children in quality programs, are convinced that children whoachieve substantial gains in these areas are the ones who willexperience greater personal and school success later in life, whichis what-pre-school education Is about," This Is an excellent articlefor all pre-school parents and appears in the April issue. We areconfident that the GYM JAM PROGRAM Is satisfying pre-schoolneeds in education. Statistics reveal more than one million child-ren are now participating In pre-school programs compared toonly 471,OiO as little as nine years ago . . . And its growing,THIS *N THAT

What You Should Know AboutDefensive Driving
By SGT. ANTHONY PARENTI, FAN WOOD POLICE
HOW TO AVOID OTHER TYPES OF COLLISIONS AND EXPRESS-WAY DRIVING:
Now lets turn our attention to the third most important type ofFatal accident - collisions with pedestrians. When a 150 pound humanbeing comes into collision with 3,000 pounds of steel, rubber andglass, ita a pretty uneven battle. We can avoid collisions withpedestrians by being especially alert for the following types ofpedestrians.
1. The elderly: They are particularly susceptible to accidentinvolvement because many of them have poor vision and defectivehearing, and cannot move quickly,
2. Children; Youngsters cannot be expected to remember and obeyall the safety rules all the time, regardless of how well they havebeen instructed at home or in school.
3 . The Drinking Pedestrian: A study of 353 fatal pedestrianaccidents showed 45% ware under the influence of alcohol whenstruck.
Another frequent type of accident is a collision with a fixedobject. This involves running into walls, abutments, parked carsetc. As a Defensive Driver, you should carefully judge the clear-ance at the sides, front, back, and top of your vehicle, and, we canavoid driving when we are below-par physically,
Although backing is a minor portion of vehicle movement, it isespecially hazardous. The drivers blind spot keeps him frombeing completely asvare of anything in the path of the backing vehicle.The rules for backing are, 1. Get the whole picture - even Ifyou have to get out of your car and look. 2, Back slowly, 3. Checkboth sides as you back. 4. Avoid backing as much as possible, 5,Never back around a corner or onto an expressway. 6. If you mustback a long distance, have someone outside the car guide you,
EXPRESSWAY DRIVING: The greater speeds experienced onthe express%vays demand a larger margin of safety on everyonespart. Planned driving is vital because traffic flow is too faai forsnap decisions. Highway Hypnosis or driving in a trance ca n easilyoccur in prolonged, high speed driving. It can be combatted bychanging drivers every two hours, or if alone,, break the monotonyby stopping every two hours and walk around the car, stretch, eatlightly. While driving, play the radio, chew gum, sing. Keep aconstant check on your speedometer, there is a tendency for speedto build up slowly. Never drive by looking at the white line In theroad, try instead to observe what's going on as far ahead as youcan see. This will reduce the chances of hypnosis and make it
can see. This will reduce the chances of hypnosis and make youbetter prepared for any emergency up ahead. Don't travel with"a pack." One crash could be a chain reaction. Stay right exceptwhen passing. Stop where you can be seen, never on a hill orcurve. Know what exit you're leaving ilia highway at and get intothe propsr lane well in advance of the turn. If you miss a turn,drive on and be prepared to turn at the next exit. After you leavethe expressway make a prompt.adjustment to lower traffic speeds,"
.traffic signals, cross traffic, pedestrians, narrow roads, two waytraffic, single lane traffic, "
This concludes this series on Defensive Driving. Rememberto use your skill and judgement to protect your own life and thelives of passengers, pedestrians and other drivers who depend onYOU to do it RIGHT.
I would like to give a special thanks to the editor of the TIMiSS"for providing space in the paper for this series and to the readerswho took the time to read the articles and put them to practice.I trust that because of this interest in safety by all parties concer-ned, our roads will become safer for all of us.
Keep checking- this paper for future safety messages and fora very interesting article by jack Kenyan of the Fanwood RescueSquad on first aid.

Plans IncreaseIn EmergencyRoom Capacity
Mr. Edward j . Dailey, j r . .Director of Muhlenberg Hospitalspoke before the Auxiliary BoardMeeting Monday morning at thehospital, Mr, Dniley spoke aboutthe new Ambulatory Health CareCenter which will be on the firstfloor of the new tower buildingnow under construction and whichis scheduled for completion inlate 1973,
The first step, Mr. Dailey said,will be enlarge the EmergencyRoom service, expanding itto better than double its presentsize. The large increase in thevolume of patient visits has r e -sulted in over-utilization of theexisting facilities. Hs said theyexpect to see approximately35,000 to 36,000 people in theEmergency Room In 1973, whichwas originally designed for 18,000, Within the next fewmonths,
a conference nursing programwill be added to the EmergencyRoom service. A nurse e s -pecially prepared for E.R, dutygoes over the instructions withthe patient and family in or-der to educate them on the valueof follow-up care.
The hospital does not want tobe In Gompetlon with the privatedoctor, bu" it does want to de-velop a standard of health carefor the ambulatory patient thatwill equal tha care of the admit-ted patient.
The next step will be the movealmost totally of all present out-
patient programs and specialtyclinics Into the new facility.
A long-range step, within twoor three years will be the es-tablishment of a Department ofCommunity Medicine with a full-time attending physician as chiefwho will be in charge of the Em-ergency Room and the approxi-mately 32 specialty clinics.
The following twigs presentedfunds at today's meeting all forthe Cobalt Unit: Gingko - $50;Hospital - $35- Misteltoe - $300;Buttonwood - $200; Clematis -$100; Boxwood - $250; Juniper -$200; and Laurel - $100,
