In an era when it is fashionable to burn flags and boast that the very freedom the flag represents is what makes it alright to burn one, it is refreshing to see a town concerned about increasing the symbol which allows for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The Beautification Committee has planned to purchase 50 new flags in time for Memorial Day, and a campaign has been initiated to raise funds for the flags and their installation. Although money is tight and there are worries of war, and even though taxes continually go up, we still live in the Super Power known a s ; the United States of America. We, as Americans represented by our flag, can vote and express our interest or disapproval of anything at any time. We can practice any religion or none at all; we can speak out to anyone who will listen, and we can assemble at will. The USA has advanced technology and medicine, we have a court system and laws. There are times when we complain about the inefficiency of these gifts (and •com nun they really are gifts) but just look at the countries struggling to obtain one fifth of what we take for granted. In the USA there is. no slavery, men and women are seen as equals, and we can elect our officials, to name a few. Our flag represents all the positive aspects of the USA, and it should therefore be seen and respected highly. Our flag is a piece of the past which our founding fathers handed down to all of the country as a reminder and a message - we live in the greatest of all countries,, the land of the free; ' . In . addition to our rights, the flag also represents a democratic government which has allowed us to grow into a strong; rich country. Due to our success as a nation, we are sometimes called upon to help other countries. In this light our flag means hope and security to many outside of the USA. Our flag speaks to' everyone in our country, and around the world. So show it proudly on your own property or support the Beautification Committee of Scotch Plains by sending in your donations today. to tfce Scbfoft Open House Christmas Party a success I would like to thank all the dedicated workers and participants who were involved in making our open house Christmas party at the Osborn Cannonball Museum, 1840 Front Street, such a success. We welcomed many old and met many new friends. The highlight of our festivities was when Dan Goscicki, a student at Evergreen School visited with his family, and upon learning that we did not have music this year, went home and returned in colonial attire. He then set up his music stand and proceeded to play Christmas carols for his delighted audience who joined in singing along. It was the highlight of the party and we were all grateful for this delightful addition to the festivities. Our party was the culmination of a year of hard work, dedication and pleasure in what we do to keep our heritage before the public. Thank you all and a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Betty Lindner Cannonball House Museum The following letter was received by E. Dennis Hardie, Co-chairman SP/F CAAN from Congresswoman Marge Roukema. Dear Mr. Hardie: I want to let you know of action taken in the last hours of Congress to forge a national aircraft noise policy. Included in the final budget package passed by Congress were several air noise provisions for which we have long been fighting. Nonethless, there still remains much work to be done in solving a problem that has only grown worse since 1987. First and foremost, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is now required by law to conduct and make public an Environmental Impact Statement on the Expanded East Coast Plan (EECP) within 180 days.

By Congressman Matt Rinaldo 7th District, New Jersey The battle against government waste must be one of the top priorities in the new Congress. The reasons are evident. There is not enough money in the budget to adequately cover essential services, such as health care, mass transit, environmental cleanup, and drug control and to service the national debt while at the same time the government wrestles with unworkable and poorly managed programs that have outlived their usefulness. Five years ago, the federal debt stood at $1.6 trillion and the deficit was $185 billion. Now the debt exceeds $3 trillion and the deficit is growing, despite a commitment to reduce spendine bv $500 billion over the next five years. With a sharp slowdown in the economy, the deficit this year could exceed $200 billion as revenues decline. Those who believe that deficits do not matter that much in relationship to the size of our economy should take another look at the costs to the taxpayers. Last year 54 cents of every dollar paid by taxpayers was used to service the government debt. If we continue to borrow heavily to pay interest on the debt, by the turn of the century more than 100 percent of every dollar paid in income taxes will be required just to meet interest payments. Raising taxes would not solve the problem but make it worse by shrinking investment, growth and revenue. What is needed is an all-out, sustained commitment to reduce government spending, starting with the recommendations of the Grace Commission. As Peter Grace, chairman of the commission, has pointed out, we have 1,139 social programs funded by the federal government. We can do with a lot less. The commission came up with 2,478 ways to eliminate waste and inefficient programs in 1984. The few hundred recommendations that have been adopted have saved the taxpayers $152.4 billion, according to the Office of Management and Budget. The potential for savings billions more is still there waiting to be implemented. Citizens Against government Waste, which has 350,000 members, cited the following examples of waste and mismanagement in the federal government: —The Internal Revenue Service is failing to collect $66 billion in delinquent taxes. —The General Accounting Office has reported that poor auditing and weak financial management in a slew of federal programs is costing the government $22 billion. —Unnecessary inventories in the Department of defense can be trimmed by $29 billion without hurting our military forces. —Double subsidies are paid to irrigate land on which farmers are paid not to plant. They amount to $800 million annually. OF SCOTCH PLAlMS YAW> BY IKl DESrWItoMi I K S0H6Eo|J Ik) OPERATlOrJ AT AIL. to P.ATTL&P off KU&'d If 1 BootrtT A T X.VC> 6 t T A |uue« 1 OXIDE.

On November 16, children in the Chapter One Pre-Kindergarten classes in the Scotch Plains-Fanwood Public Schools went on an imaginary trip back to the year 1690. Their guide for the journey was Mrs. Leppert, assistant curator of the Cannonball House Museum on Front Street in Scotch Plains. Through "Good Wife Leppert's" story, the children set sail for New Jersey in large wooden sailboats. They built their homes, searched for food, and heard about the many chores they would have been expected to do. When they returned to the year 1990, the children had an opportunity to examine many of the articles that Mrs. Leppert spoke of in her story. Wooden bowls, utensils, candles, bayberry, blackberry tea, a betsy lamp, foot warmer and a traveling trunk are some of the items that the children were able to handle. Mrs. Leppert provided cider and scones for the children to sample. It was quite an adventure and quite an enjoyable way for the children to become aware of our cultural heritage and colonial times.

Park M.S. children celebrate education On Friday, November 16, 1990, the 7D wing of Park Middle School was filled with approximately one hundred guests, young and adult, from 7:45 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. During that time 7D students hosted a breakfast for parents, staff and themselves in h o n o r of American Education Week. Several weeks before, the Breakfast Committee formed to begin creating invitations, and planning the event. Meanwhile within their English classrooms each studentselected a teacher who was special in his life and wrote a personal letter to him or her, acknowledg- Thanksgiving tradition at Evergreen School ing favorite memories and giving thanks for being inspirational. During American E d u c a t i o n Week each student sent his letter. Copies of these letters hung with other student projects for parents and guests to enjoy during the breakfast. The 7D s t u d e n t s selected a Pilgrim theme for their breakfast. Marissa Impalli and Angelique Leone designed and created the costumes. All the foods were prepared and donated by 7D students and families. Proud students, parents and teachers agreed that the breakfast was a success. Mrs. Torella's Kindergarten class at Evergreen School are pictured preparing pumpkin muffins for their Thanksgiving Feast. This was a culminating activity which helped the children become aware of Thanksgiving traditions.

GOLF RESULTS Fanwood Sr. Men's Basketball w CQ w u w Q w Marion upped their record to 2-0 with a strong second half in which they consistently beat the manto-man defense of Poplar (1-1). Poplar held a 23-22 half time lead on strong outside shooting and a good zone defense. The switch to man-to-man was their undoing. Rich Comer of Marion led all scorers with 14 points, 10 of which were in the second half. Don Urenovich and Brian Murphy also chipped in with 10 and 9 points. Poplar was led by Tom Smith and Bryson Culver who each had 11 points and Mike Kelly who scored 10 points. The second game took an extra period to decide a winner. After tying the game at 59 on a three point shot at the very end of regulation, Shady Lane (sponsored by Nissan Motor Corp.) earned their first victory by racing to a big lead in the overtime and coasting to a 71-69 win over Hunter. Gordon and Salciens led the newcomers with 25 (21 in the second half) and 17 points, respectively. Hunter, last year's league champs, has opened the season with two defeats. They were led by Bob Kelly's 34 points, 20 of those in the second half. Rick Reddington also scored 9 and Steve Mahoney had 8 points. Willoughby evened their record at 1-1 with a 48-43 win over Montrose who now also stands at 1-1. Willoughby raced to 22-12 half time lead and held off a hot shooting Dave Berry to earn the victory. The winners were led by Fred Walls who scored 12 points, Marc Romano who scored 10 and Charlie Bochi who had 8 points. Berry led all scorers with 16 for the evening, 14 in the second half on the strength of four threepoint shots in trying to lead the comeback. Mark Thomas and Pete Shergalis also scored 8 points each.

Emergency Dept. passes its first major test The new Emergency Department of Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center had been in operation less than three hours opening day, Nov. 28, when it met and passed its first major testtreating six victims from two motor vehicle accidents. Earlier that morning, the d e p a r t m a n t was relocated into the new Thomas S.P. Fitch, M.D., Memorial Pavilion on Randolph Road at the front of the medical center. The new Emergency Department, twice as large as its predecessor, has state-of-the-art equipment and c o m p u t e r technology designed to reduce waiting times. "We now triage patients first, then register them," said Catherine Igo, R.N., nurse manager of the Emergency Departmant. "And it worked well when five victims from a school bus accident in Piscataway and a woman from an accident in Plainfield arrived here at the same time, shortly before 9 a.m." Triage is a system which establishes priorities for treating patients. The five victims from the school bus accident, which included three 13-year-old students, and a woman motorist injured in a Plainfield accident were treated and released. "We've changed approaches to giving care," said Igo, alluding to triage procedure. In addition, she said nursing staffing patterns have been changed so that a greater number of nurses are on duty during the Emergency Department's peak period from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. There was a smooth transition in making the changeover from the old to the new Emergency Department, Igo said. Jane Wernig, R.N., the Director of Nursing in charge of the Emergency Department, echoed Igo's sentiments. " I t was especially exhilarating seeing the results of efforts by 1,000 employees who worked to get the department ready for its opening day," Wernig said. Wernig was among the speakers at the medical center's dedication of the Emergency Department on Nov. 26. Garrett M.

A GLANCE ASKANCE By Skip Ungar "Early Negative Campaigning" (Little Known Facts From History) With all the talk of negative campaigning these days, it is interesting to note that this form of vote getting goes back to the earliest times. Anything nasty that could be dug up about someone was used and no holds were barred. When David was running for re-election for the office of King of Israel, the thing that almost cost him his royal job was the Bathsheba incident. Uriah's brother-in-law, who wanted to unseat David, took a huge ad in the Jaffa'Sentinel telling the whole sordid story. It was fortunate for David that he was the incumbent and was able to raise millions of shekels from the slingshot industry which paid for counter ads proving that his opponent's family originally came from Sodom and that some of his campaign slogans were previously used bv Saul but not attributed to him. The next famous negative campaign involved David's son, Solomon. When he came up for election, his rival tried to imply that Solomon's chief delight was hacking infants in half. It took Solomon a long time to convince the electorate that this was not the case, and although he won by a narrow margin, it was substantiated by random exit polls that he had lost his popularity with the female voters. Negative campaigning certainly played a huge part when Paris tried to run again for mayor of Ilium aeainst Hector. The whole mess about Paris kidnapping Helen came out and so divided the city that it led to its downfall. Paris, who was desperate for funds, allowed the wooden horse through the Trojan gates, thinking it was filled with campaign funds from CREEP (Committee to RE-Elect Paris). Out popped not drachmas but Greeks, and that was the end of Troy and Paris. But negative campaigning reached its disgusting depths with the saga of Oedipus. Today, no one would believe what they said about him. But in those days, politics knew no bounds and when the story came out that he had murdered his father and married his own mother, that was even a little too much for the Greeks. Not only was he rejected by his constituents, but after he was defeated, just to make sure he'd never run again, they blinded him and threw him out of the country. Now that's negative! The Romans also indulged in negative campaigning. A southern senator, Jesse Tillers, ran on the negative platform that his opponent had been in favor of a grant by the Roman Endowment for the Arts to a sculptor in Milo who was carving an obscene statue, a nude. Not only did he win his seat in the Roman senate, but the grant was rescinded and as a result, the sculptor ran out of money before he could finish the statue's arms. Probably the most famous form of negative campaigning also occurred in Rome and had to do with Julius Caesar's trying to graduate from consul to emperor. Brutus and Cassius, who disliked Caesar because they thought he was not giving enough credit to Imogene Coca, discovered that he had been fooling around with a cute little Egyptian queen named Cleopatra. They knew this would not sit well with the Roman citizens who adored Caesar's wife, Calpurma, who was not only above "Suspicion" but also "Rear Window". The scandal so recked Rome that Brutus and Cassius, along with some other ward heelers, took matters into their own hands and assassinated Caesar, which is about as negative as you can get.

Barbara Reeder, also of SP/F CAAN testified on the severity of the jet noise in our area and was able to demonstrae the intensity of the problem with air traffic tracking charts supplied by the FAA. The charts indicate that the bulk of westbound air traffic does indeed fly over our area. Ms. Reeder questioned the rationale for subjecting an area which had no air traffic at all prior to June 1, 1989 with such a heavy burden of noise pollution. Other speakers addressed concern that ocean routing has not yet been fully explored and that no one is officially addressing the very real issues of air pollution and public safety. A rollback of the Expanded East Coast Plan, which routed the heavy traffic over central NJ, was also requested. The Port Authority had representatives testifying against the noise control bill but indicated support for Federal regulations which require Stage 2 elimination by 2000 with extensions to 2003. Committee Chairman Spadoro expressed his belief that the revised noise control bill requiring phaseout of Stage 2 by 1996 would be swiftly passed by the committee and shortly be before the State Assembly for an open vote.

INVESTOR'S CORNER Spera elected president of Women for Women by Fred J. Chemidlin To hear people talk today, the Great Depression is about to happen all over again. Creeping unemployment, shaky banks, a reckless federal government and threat of a Persian Gulf war has everyone scared silly. Certainly caution and concern are warranted as the scales of justice are balancing in the economic world. It can't be all bad! A recession was overdue after eight years of continous expansion. Imports will slow down while exports are booming. Our dollar value drop makes our products more attractive to foreigners. Our tax rates and gas prices are among the lowest in the world. We need to weed out fraud, corruption and featherbedding in our government at all levels. Unfortunately nothing will ever change with less than one-third of the people voting! Ninety-six percent of all incumbents were re-elected recently. People evidently are still satisfied with their elected officials and their performance. Now if you are heavily in debt, working at a nonproductive job at a high salary, and living off the labors of others, you have a right to be afraid! Economic justice will be served sooner or later. There is no free lunch or big kill without an eventual cost. For many, pay back time is here or coming in the year ahead. For others, opportunity is at hand! Don't let it pass you by! Maybe we should think hard about the motto hanging in many small stores, "In God we trust, all others pay cash." Maybe we need to outlaw all debt and return to the "one nation, under God," indivisible with liberty and justice for all," as stated in our "Pledge of Allegiance." Maybe someone up there is trying to give us a message? Book Fair held at Brunner School MARILYN SPERA Women for Women of Union County announces the selection of Marilyn Spera as its new president.

A questionnaire was distributed to each member present in an attempt to ascertain what type of housing was needed and/or desired. Upon receipt and analysis of the questionnaires, the aforementioned guests will give a more detailed presentation as to what might be feasible. The open meeting discussion will continue at the first two meetings in January, 1991.

The meeting was presided over by our Vice President, Josephine Librandy in the absence of our President. A few items of interest were discussed, such as our upcoming shopping trip to the Woodbridge Mall and the bus schedule for the trip. She announced some good news about our recouperating member, Phyllis Sully. She is home from the Rehabilitation Center of Kessler Institute. We all wish her well and look forward to her return to the Club. Our Party Chairman, Laurel Pesinski, gave a report on our Christmas Party to be held at the Willows Restaurant on Thursday, December 29, 1990. Our Trip Coordinator, Rose Frino, was called upon to speak about our trip to the New Jersey Flower Show to be held on Thursday, February 28, 1990. After our meeting, we had the great pleasure to have as our guest speaker our "home town Senator" Donald DiFrancesco. He gave a very informative talk regarding subjects affecting all citizens of Scotch Plains-Fanwood as well as those in other parts of the State on New Jersey. The problem of finding a viable way to help Senior Citizens with lowering/freezing their Real Estate taxes. A discussion regarding the problem of the Teacher's Pension Fund as it relates to taxes. Another topic of discussion was the rising Health Care costs and problems members of the community and state are faced with. After Senator DiFrancesco spoke, he asked for comments from the floor. One of the concerns aired was the Homestead Act rebate for 1991 and how it will be handled under the Florio Administration. The Senator made available to us complimentary copies of "A Guide to Senior Citizens Services". He was given a great round of applause by all. We would like to publicly thank him for taking time out of his busy schedule to enlighten us with these issues. Along with Senator DiFrancisco was Ms. Irene Schmidt, Councilwoman for Scotch Plains as well as Legislative Aid to the Senator. She spoke to us regarding the long awaited senior Citizen housing. The plan to start the project is estimated to begin next Spring. Her talk was very interesting and some discussion was had from the floor. We thank her also for sharing with us this vital subject to all those anticipating Senior Citizen Housing in Scotch Plains. Before lunch the invocation was given so eloquently by our own, Mary Bugle, in which she asked us all to remember our boys overseas in our prayers this day. After lunch, Bingo was called by our game hostess, Betty Lindblad. Brunner first grade makes its own kind of music and we will get your letter to him fast.

City Public Service M Electric and Gas JB Company PSP.G W ,V-W Subsidiary of PUBLIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE GROUP INCORPORATED Continued from page 4 maintained should have been done before any routing changes were implemented-will force the FAA to stop denying its responsibility, report the facts of the EECP's effects on air noise and air safety owner New Jersey, and put forth real, solutions to the problem! Some U.S. Senators who do not share our views proposed scrapping noise restrictions already in place, and severely limiting any future attempts to control noise. That was simply unacceptable, and my colleagues and I worked to ensure that all existing regulations on air noise will stay in place! Furthermore, by the end of this decade, &5% of the noisiest Stage 11 aircraft must end operation. At the same time, no additional Stage II's can be added to any United States air carrier fleet. Finally, the Secretary of Transportation is now charged to craft a national air noise policy, one that must take into account the interests, concerns, comments and rights of the public . We cannot stand for more FAA bureacracy! Having been handed this bureaucracy, delay and deception by the FAA, we cannot let down our guard. This fight pitted the powerful airline industry against a united New Jersey—whose residents, local officials and U.S. representitives were unanimous in disapproval. While I would not claim a total victory in the war, we have made significant inroads with this battle. Future efforts to end the suffering of those impacted by aircraft noise are still to come, but if we continue to show the tenacity and unity we have thus far evidenced, 1 am certain we will prevail.
