Mystique is a newly founded nonprofit social services organization consisting of seven women from New Brunswick, Somerset and Dayton who were childhood friends. " Recognizing the needs of all persons surrounding us, our goal is to be of service by raising consciousness and bringing people closer together through community projects for the less fortunate," explained Connie Hemingway, Mystique president. This was their second organized activity. Previously the women had visited senior citizens at the Parker Nursing Home in New Brunswick. "The Christmas party was made possible by a raffle for a portable television set, with the help of Sears, K-Mart and Knickerbocker Toy Company who donated toys, the Elks who donated the hall and many who extended their love and concern," she said..

This part addresses plans for the upcoming school year. Next week s article will enumerate the steps required for the high school to arrive at the principal s proposed Block Time system. by Jennifer Jndd Special Writer Are your New Year s resolutions made and ready to be put into action? Franklin High School principal M. Lee Blaustein appears to have formulated his long before New Year s Day. According to the principal, next year s plans will be "what is best for the majority of the students." Plans for the school year are: to reinstate homeroom, to keep the eight period day, to allow more time in class, and to recommend continuation of the PM session. However, some high school students and teachers fear what may be an unfair compromise conflicting with their wholehearted support of the idea to reinstate homeroom and to continue the PM activity period. TlE FHS POPULATON agrees a homeroom is necessary and more class time is desirable. And, while students and teachers say they can Canal group benefits Regulations to be streamlined by Steve Goodman Managing Editor Public comment from municipal officials and residents in three counties -- Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset -- has convinced the Delaware and Raritan Canal Commission some streamlining is needed on its proposed development review procedures. Culling through suggestions aired and potential snags uncovered at three meetings held this month in Princeton, Franklin and South Brunswick, the commissioners acknowledge the review zone is too wide an area to handle unassisted. The commission is proposing that it set standards for controlling runoff from large developments in a vast region of central New Jersey that drains towards the canal. n addition, it is seeking aesthetic and visual controls over projects within a halfmile of the canal park s borders. Residential development with 25 or more units and non-residentail projects covering at least one acre with" impervious surface, or operations that could affect the canal will come under the canal commissioner s scrutiny, even if the development s beyond the hal/-mile intensive review zone. South Brunswick planner Peter Hechenbleikner said the proposed review area would cover approximately 50 percent of the township including areas 10 miles from the canal itself. n Franklin Township, approximately 17,575 acres of land presently zoned for i-esidefitialagricultural use and about 3,000 acres of industrial land -- including Cottontail Lane, a $1 million township investment -- would come under the commission s review, according to Franklin planner Andy Paszkowski. "The Planning Board pleads that a fiscal report on the documents and their impact on Franklin Township be done before adoption of the regulations," he said. commission s simultaneous review. Although allowed 45 days following local approval of proposed development to make its ruling, Dr. Hamilton anticipates "it ll be a matter of form" compromise accept an eight period day, combining the three elements leads to a PM session that will be "whatever is left at the end of next year s proposed schedule," according to Mr. Blaustein. His plans indicate the PM activity period will be 25 minutes long and many students and instructors would prefer a 45-minute time slot in which to organize extracurricular club activities and offer remedial instruction for students seeking assistance. n addition, the 25-minute PM session does not allow students enough time to complete a make-up test. "t just doesn t make sense," insisted one FHS instructor. Franklin teachers recently participated in a poll sponsored by Mr. Blaustein in which he solicited their views on the present high school schedule as well as ideas for next year s class time structure. Although he has compiled the questionnaire s results, "they are not yet for the public," the principal said. Some teachers, believing the principal s poll to be invalid, conducted another consensus search and prepared the data for presentation to the Franklin Township Board of Education. A MAJOR BONE of contention between the principal and the high school staff appears to be the most efficient utilization of instructional and other employees to oversee students whereabouts during the school day. PM time "There was lack of supervision and staff during PM lunch time," explained Mr. Blaustein, citing one reason he pushed for the eight period class day schedule. "t is crazy to design a school day around lunch," maintains FHS English teacher Lynn Rice. Since the negotiated contract guarantees teachers a lunch period scheduled into the work day, the seven period day allowed them to eat simultaneously with the students, leaving Mr. Blaustein and other administrators to supervise the students PM lunch. "Why not ask parents to come into FHS on a rotating basis as lunchroom and hall supervisors?" Ms. Rice asked. "No way," retorted Mr. Blaustein, likening the situation to "a person having no medical experience asking to help a doctor. "t is the responsibility of the school. to conduct its own affairs," he said. Franklin teachers recently formed a Faculty Advocate Committee which, according to member Rice, "would like to see what is educationally best done for FHS." While consensus to support a homeroom for next year is universal in the high school, Mr. BlaUstein has plans for FHS "in about 10 years" from now. Based on a prediction of a reduced high school student population by 1989, the principal envisions the class day schedule modified into the ultimate time plan called system. the Block Time from airings for tandem review for the commission to rule on projects. The canal group has final veto power as authorized by its 1974 enabling legislation. "We want to work in tandem with the counties and the municipalities as much as possible," insisted the commission member, acknowledging See CANAL, page 14-A Fragrance garden to bloom next summer in Colonial Park A plan seven years in the making may come to pass this summer in the form of a sensory and fragrance garden at Colonial Park in Franklin. The plan originated with George Kozar, then just a member of the Franklin Lions Club but presently deputy district governor of the civic organization. The Lions clubs, of course, have as their primary goal alleviation of problems of the blind or sight impaired. Mr. Kozar said he thought back in 1971 that more gardens for the visually impaired and other handicapped persons were needed in New Jersey, so why not in Franklin. As conceived and conceptually approved by the Somerset County Park Commission, the oval garden would abut the existing rose gardens and be about 120 feet long and 80 feet wide. Because of the difference in the terrain it would require a ramp for visitors confined to wheelchairs. A 30-NCH HGH brick wall would encircle the garden with a metal rail at the top. Plaques in braille and normal printing would be located on the rail at specified spots offering details of the plants in that area. A long-range goal, according to Mr. Kozar, is a tape system to be held by the visitor or to be activated by him at regular intervals. Hopes are that the Lions will be able to present a formal proposal to the park commission in January and that work could get underway by April. Mr. Kozar sees no problem in meeting that schedule. The Lions said they will present at least $8,000 for construction of the garden and Mr. Kozar said the club is near that figure now. The Franklin Lions have kept other area Lions clubs informed on the project in the hopes that they will be interested in specific gifts or be motivated to start such a garden in their areas. TlE LONS, Mr. Kozar said, also feel that many other groups in the county, such as garden clubs, will want to become associated with the project. The sensory-fragrance garden, Mr. Kozar said, is scheduled to contain more than 45 plants chosen for their fragrances or tactile characteristics. All plants will be of the fast growing variety and easily replaceable, he said. The site of the garden-- between the rose garden and the Delaware & Raritan Canal -- is presently unused.

"The commission philosophy is that we don t want to penalize any municipality or any developer that is behaving responsibly towards the canal," he explained. To this end, he indieated the commissioners intend to streamline their review function to create informal staff inspections of proposed plans in conjunction with local municipal planning reviews. Objections to placing additional financial burdens on developers -- who prepare materials and submit an application fee to the canal commission -- will benegated by the The proposed sensory fragrance garden at Colonial Park.

" on conservation on resolutions by ione bradley There s always a 2nd chance With the imminent dawning of a new year comes the heady assumption that this year will be different, by gum, right from Day One. Old habits will be firmly flushed away; new ones will instantly root. This gumption and.accompanying headiness are bolstered by New Year s Eve champagne, but the spirit of new resolve is certainly heartening. The trouble with these resolutions, as we all know, is their tendency to fizzle. The cigarettes reappear within a few days; the jogging goes by the wayside along with cramped calf muscles; and the television springs back into full, nearly round-the-clock use. BUT TERE S a solution to the resolution blues. One good antidote to the depression of having fudged such a good, fresh start is... another fresh start. n fact, a whole new New Year.

The first, of course, is Jan. 1, the first day of 1979 on most calendars. Then, two weeks later, comes another chance for a round of resolutions in case the first one failed. On Jan. 14, New Year s Day is celebrated by many people whose religion did not accept the modified Gregorian calendar that began in the 16th century and is in use today. Their calendar, called the Julian calendar, is a perfectly legitimate one; but it is two weeks behind the Gregorian. And before January is out, another fullscale embrace of a new year is scheduled. This is the Chinese New Year, celebrated on Jan. 28. Just think, millions of people will greet the Year of the Sheep on that day, and what better day for Occidentals to express their sheepishness at irresolution than then. FOR THOSE WHO can make longer than a few days or weeks commitment to resolutions, a long stretch through winter without any new year marking will test commitment. Never fear, the first day of spring on March 31 can be effectively argued as the inauguration of a new year. A new cycle of birth and growth, end of the dead winter... see how easy it is. Which brings us to our individual birthdays as the most technically correct time to mark another new year. Those with a scientific or mystical bent could also count nine months before their birthdays as the beginning of Jife, and so it goes. The Jewish New Year next year falls on Sept. 22, and for many it is a true and hopeful time to begin again. For Christians, the beginning of December marks the start of the church year, and a month from that is the chance to start again on New Year s Day. So tip your champagne glass,, toast the New Year, and draw up a list of well-intentioned resolutions.

Her statement, made to officers sent to investigate was as follows: No, it really didn t surprise me to see someone flying through the air and landing on my lawn. just thought, "t s not a bird. t s not a plane. t s Superman. t s just Chris Reeve coming home to Princeton to visit his family for the holidays." figured since he wasn t used to coming in by air he d gotten a little mixed up and landed on my lawn instead of his own. Well, went out to give him directions and noticed he wasn t wearing his red cape. As a matter of fact, it was pretty embarassing, because he wasn t wearing much of anything at all Ȧnd talk about fresh! "Where s the old man m supposed to relieve?", he yelled. "Have you taken his place? They told me women were trying to take charge of everything on earth, but never thought d see a broad in this job." NOW! WASN T going to put up with that from some smart alec kid. "Listen," said, "you d better get some more clothes on in a hurry. You ll catch pneumonia in that skimpy outfit." And you know what he said? " have to dress like this the first night. t s tradition. Everybody expects it." Can you imagine? told him there wouldn t be anyone expecting it. "Streaking s gone out of style," said. "You won t find anyone thinking its funny this ~,ear." He got so mad at that, couldn t understand whyl "Just what do you know. about this Year," he said. "That s the trouble with people all the time. They bring things on themselves and then blame it on the Years. ve heard them talking about the "Year of the Great War" and the "Depression Years," as if we Years had anything to do with it. " even overheard someone saying, That was the Year my daughter married that no-good bum. He could have said, My daughter sure picked a loser to marry, and not have blamed it on the Year. t was her choice." could hardly get a word in, he was carrying on so. "Look," said, "quit -with the funny talk. don t have time to stand out here listening to your jokes." "THAT S ANOTHER thing," he shouted. "People are always saying that they don t have time. And of course they do. They have 60 seconds in every minute, 60 seconds in every hour, and 24 hours in every day. t s part of my job to see to that. "But instead of thanking me for keeping such good track of things, everyone tries to say that they don t have enough time. What they mean is that they don t use their time so that there s enough of it to go around." Well, officer, was trying to back toward the door, when someone came running down the street. t seemed like a queer time for my neighbor to be jogging, but then he does a lot of strange things-but being neighbors you know, you just ignore. And was sure glad to see somebody coming. But when he got closer saw it wasn t my neighbor, it was another strange one. This was an old fellow, with a long beard, certainly old enough to know better. He had a sheet wrapped around him, more covered than the first fellow, but still not really decent with that sheet whipping around while he ran. TtlEY KNEW EACH other all right, because as he came up he yelled to the first one, "Hey, young fellow, m sorry if m late. There are always so many last minute details to take care of, you know." bring peace to the world and save all the endangered species. That s a pretty big orderl They always forget that they have to do these things themselves, that all we can do is give them the time in which to do it. "Now they re disappointed in me, when they weren t willing to try hard enough themselves. They ll be expecting you to do all these things, too. There has been some progress made so perhaps some of them will come about while you re here. certainly hope so." THEY WERE SHAKNG hands when the old guy noticed me for.the first time and he called over to me, "Lady, why don t you try to help this kid along in his new job? Tell some of the people who will be making all sorts of resolutions tomorrow to try to hang in there a little longer. f they d all just work at their good intentions for more than just a few days, maybe they could really see some wonderful things begin to happen." Did you ever hear such crazy talk? Well, the twoof them waved to me and ran off down the street. n those outlandish outfits! And then came right into the house and called the police. Will get my name in the paper, officer? The investigating officers were unable to locate any trace of the two exhibitionists and we received no further reports about them. t was our conclusion that the woman had been imbibing a little too much New Year s Eve cheer. Police officials have asked her to take it easy at the punch bowl this Sunday night. t sounded to me as though maybe he had been looking at some place in the neighborhood, sort of casing the place, you know, though why the crazy outfit is beyond me.

Especially now, when the Department of Environmental Protection and its Washington counterpart, the Environmental Protection Agency, are making big strides toward better public participation in decision making by government, a most welcome development. BUT llow CAN the public participate effectively if too many hearings and meetings pile up in a short space of time? The period from Thanksgiving to New Year s Day is when this problem becomes most apparent. No doubt it s aggravated by a lot of people in government trying to get things cleaned up by the end of the year, but public ability to be attentive to government doings is at a low ebb during the holiday season. m referring specifically to hearings and meetings relating to environmental matters, but the problem occurs in other sectors too. Here at the New Jersey Conservation Foundation, where we publish our Environmental Bulletin to notify members of important environmental actions, the problem is easily illustrated. For example, the November Bulletin lists the following hearings, all relating to important environmental areas; Scenic Rivers, Pine Barrens, Delaware and Raritan Canal Park, public smoking, amending rules under the Coastal Area Facility Review Act, and air quality standards. n each case, there was one or more hearing session, with two on different air quality topics and three treating some phase of the Pine Barrens. And all are listed for the County 911 put in limbo a year and a half of meetings, research and hearings.

This trunk line would benefit only one individual, Jack Field, developer of 2,200 acres of Franklin s prime farmland. He is also insisting any changes in the master plan must take into consideration his plan, which again, would benefit only Jack Field. At every meeting, he is pressing for a downgrading of our zoning ordinance, all the while pretending that he is upgrading! Once again, it s for his own benefit. Our elected and appointed officials must not succumb to Jack Field s pressure tactics. They must do what is best for all of Franklin Township and not for Jack Field s 2,200 acres. Jack Field is not concerned about Franklin s future. He is a transient who came to Franklin with a bundle of money and bought most of the farms in the first ward at deflated prices. Now he is ready to make a financial killing at the expense of Franklin s working class of people. We must not make one single change in our zoning that will benefit developer Jack Field. Once his massive development gets underway, based on his concept of zoning, it will mean more schools, more municipal services and higher taxes for all home owners.

6 ) O-A Thursday, December 28, 1978 NEW JERSEY SENATOR Clifford Case (left) retires next week after 33 years Capitol Hill. John Cushlanis of Manville has served with Senator Case as an intern for the last four months. % PAUSNG FOR A MOMENT of intros~)ection, John Cushlanis relaxes in front of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C. The Novice politician untimely by Stuart CrumpJr. The Packet Group WASHNGTON, D.C. -- Long-time U.S. Senator Clifford Case isn t the only New Jerseyite in the nation s capital who will be without a job next week. John P. Cushlanis, a local young man from Manville, will find himself similarly unemployed. And for almost the same reason. When Senator Case lost his bid for reelection last June to upstart Jeffery Bell, the Senator s entire staff s days were numbered. And among that staff is its newest member, John Cushlanis. BUT UNLKE the Senator, who is expecting to retire from politics after 33 years on Capitol Hill, John Cushlanis is just beginning his career in Washington. " got my start in politics a couple years ago during that excitement we had in Manville to ban certain books retirement from the classroom," John explained during a recent interview in Washington. "Guy Shultz, another student at Manville High, and were the student spearheads of the move to fight the board of education on the issue of textbook banning," he said. "Before became involved in the local politics in Manville had planned to be a psychology major when came to college," the George Washington: University freshman said. "But after getting a taste of politics, said to myself, t looks like a big game and it s a lot of fun. find it terribly intriguing how things get done in politics and! decided this is what wanted to do. And decided that if wanted to study politics, Washington was the place to do it." JON GRADUATED from Manville High School in 1977 and began his studies at GWU in September of that year. He chose to attend George Washir]gtbff because of its reputation THE WASHNGTON SUBWAY is not as extensive as the one in New York, but is so new that even someone who has lived in the area since it opened has to study the map once in a while, as John does here. ~:~,. his BACK roommate, AT HS ROOM Rich John McBride Cushlanis Jr. The (left) two goes young over men a are homework members assignment of the same with.. fraternity at George Washington University. George Washington University freshman, who grew up in Manville, hopes someday to follow in the footsteps of men such as Jefferson faces in the field of political studies and its location in the middle of the District of Columbia. When the second semester came earlier this year, John decided to stay in the city and look for a job, and take a respite from classroom work. "Some of the people who stayed at our fraternity house over the summer work for Senators and Congressmen, and while was showing them ar6dnd the hill decided wanted to give a shot myself. sort of lucked-out -- in the right place at the right time," he said. "The first, place stopped was Senator Case s office. Th~ person who was in charge of interns was very nice but said that shouldn t get my hopes tip because they get 1000 s of applications for these jobs. "T JUST HAPPENED that an intern had left about a month earlier and they needed someone to take her place for about a month, and so got the job. When that month was up they didn t have any other position for me, so f took a job working for a law firm. A month and a half later the summer was over they told me there was another opening and asked if could come back," he explained. Since September he has worked as an intern on a 10-hour, two-day per week basis, balancing his work with his studies at George Washington, where he is now a second semester freshman. f you ve written to Senator Case in the last three or four months chances are that John or one of his fellow interns opened your letter, read it, reported on it, and the hundreds of other letters received by the office to Senator Case, drafted the reply and possibly even signed it. "The Senator can no longer read his mail himself," John explained. "The volume is amazing. A large part of his staff is devoted to reading the mail. Certain issues draw so much mail that we have to send out a Dear Friend type letter," he said. FOR EXAMPLE, during the two week period before the vote was taken to extend the Equal Rights Amendment ratification deadline, the office received about 1,000 letters a day urging Senator Case to vote for the extension. "For every 1,000 pro-era letters, we d get about 10 anti-era letters," John explained. Senator Case, of course, voted for the extension. "He s been for it all along," John said. Part of the fun of being an intern on the hill is attending all those parties which seem to occupy so much attention in the national gossip press. "There have been many parties held for Senator Case now that he s retiring, and we ve been invited to all of them," he said. " like to meet other Senators, because you get a feeling of what they are like in contrast to the opinion you already have of them from what you ve read in the paper," John explained. One Senator. who stands out in his mind is George McGovern. " ve never thought very much of Senator McGovern, but when met him was very pleased because he talked to me and one of the girls in the office for about 10 minutes, which is a long time at one of those parties," he said. "We were talking about the Panama Canal treaty and his opinions were totally and become President of the United States. 0! CASE "JOHN S ONE OF the best damn interns we ever had around herej Pat McFerren (left) said John Cushlanis (right). Mr. McFerren has been with Clifford Case since he became a U. S. Senator 24 years ago. He is chief of the records section, and shares an office with John. against mine. Neither of us changed the other s mind on the subject, but rather like him a little more because he took the time to stop and talk to me," he said. "1 GUESS VE met more than half of the Senators, but usually it s just a quick hello and a handshake. The biggest thrill ve had, even more than meeting any of the Senators, was meeting (N.J. Representative) Millicent Fenwick. admire her quite a bit. She s a very vivacious woman and really charming. She was everything had hoped she would be in person and more. She just has an air of elegance about her. One thing like about her is that she answers most of her own correspondence. She s one of the last people on Capitol Hill who can do it." When asked what he plans to do after Senator Case steps down on Jan. 2, John explained he has no immediate plans other than to continue his studies in school. But when it comes to his long-range plans, he has definite ideas. n the next few years he plans to go to law school and graduate school. "Eventually want to get a doctorate in political science," he said. He then hopes to run for Congress or the Senate. " know it sounds facitious, but want to get into elective politics. may become a legislative aide in Washington for a while to get some background experience," he said. HE EVEN HARBORS that dream which every American boy (and even a few girls these days) latch onto -- to someday, be President of the United States. And, following retirement from politics, he hopes to go into teaching at a university in the field. " just can t ever see myself completely retiring," he said. Whether or not llis dream of being President becomes reality, he says he is beginning his life on Capitol Hill in an ideal location. His school -- named after the First President, is a mere three blocks from the White House, two blocks from the Lincoln Memorial and less than a half mile from the Washington Monument. " almost wish lived a little closer to the Jefferson Memorial," he explained. "t s my favorite place in the city. That s the place go when want to be alone. Of all the Founding Fathers, most admire Thomas Jefferson," he said. "Jefferson really wanted to see this country thrive and grow. The principles he established are universal and timeless. They espouse the entire conception of democracy that we believe in today," he said. Photos by Stuart Crump ONE OF THE NCEST THNGS about being a young man working in the office of a U. S. Senator is that you meet some of the most attractive young ladies around. Here John confers with Jay Morgan, a junior at Georgetown University.

The expression "Double ~ ~your pleasure, double your fun" may sometimes be true with twins, but having twins also means twice the work, twice the patience, twice the energy and twice the money. The attention one receives from having twins is phenomenal. An endless bevy of onlookers will coo and gurgle at the babies in the double carriage as if they were a double miracle. But when mother is alone with these two "miracles" it can be an anxious time. This is one reason why The Raritan Valley Mothers of Twins and Triplets Club was founded in Two of the founders were Cindy Dowling and Cheryl Schaub, who are no longer with the club, but who have been replaced by other women just as determined to make this organization viable. THE TWNS CLUB meets on the fourth Monday of each month at St. John s Episcopal Church on West High Street in Somerville. The meeting room looks just like a living room. t s warm and cozy, with comfortable furniture, a. fireplace and a friendly atmosphere. A new member can walk in and feel right at home. t s truly a refuge away from the children. The president of the club. Kathleen Heaphy of Raritan, has four-year-old twins, James and Karen, and a six- " year-old named Kathleen. She has been a member of the club for three and a half years and in her second year as its president. When asked why the club is necessary, she replied, "People with twins and triplets need to talk to other people that share the same questions and problems.

The club has members of all ages and all try to guide one another through the rough areas. " talk to quite a few women over the phone, women who can t make it to the meetings. tell them to call me with any questions they have, and mean it," Mrs. Heaphy said. There are also other people who want to help. There is a different speaker every month who donates his time free of charge to the club. One is Mrs. Heaphy s husband, Kenneth, a school psychologist for the Readington Township Board of Education. His topic of discussion was the importance of helping children to feel good about themselves. A doctor from the Somerset Pediatric Group talked about the immunization of children (See Twins, page 9A) JENNFER LAMBERT, 5, holds for Carolyn Puia.

One of her particular interests is farmland preservation. As a pipeline contractor, Dennis Kephart brings to the board a l~nowledge of business in general and the construction industry in particular. When asked how he became interested in environmental matters Kephart said, " want to leave my children an environment that they can live with. We must protect what we have because it won t get any better without our help." Some of Mr. Kephart s other activities include projects for the YMCA, ndian Guides, and the Masons.

Another speaker was a physician from the Hunterdon Medical Center who spoke about the odds and probabilities of having twins. The club is always looking for other interesting and pertinent topics of discussion. AT PRESENT the club has 30 members. The yearly dues are only $4 so there isn t a lot of money to work with. But since the speakers work for free, the club has money for philanthropy. t supports a scholarship fund for children who are twins or have twins in their immediate family. While there is no longer a yearly charity project, the club donates clothing and other items to needy families with twins. And although the club cannot afford to join The nternational Association of Twins and Triplets Clubs, it belongs to the New Jersey Association of Twins Mothers Clubs.

You have to go through a lot of different changes and because they (other members) have already been through many of the experiences you re going to go through, the club is very helpful." Sandy Pirozzi of Township Line Road, Belle Mead, likes the club because of the lasting friendships it develops. She also likes.the "equipment exchange" the club has for double baby carriages, clothes and other items. "TLE CLUB also has socials which include the members husbands and children," she said. "There are holiday parties, family picnics, progressive dinners and even bowling." Marilyn Hughes of Piscataway has four children. The oldest one was.19 months old when the triplets were born three years ago. She reports, "t (the club meetings) is way to get out of the house, and you can get more ideas. When the children were just babies the older one would do destructive things, and it was also hard to potty train him with the triplets still in diapers." The club meetings apparently helped her through many of the problems because she still attends them. sister-in-law switched the color, by mistake and didn t know it. That really confused me. Now leave it up to them as to what they want to wear." STRESSED BY the club is that twins are individuals, with their own personalities, likes and dislikes. They should be treated as two people not one. Susan Anthony of Bedminster agrees with this philosophy. She belongs to a babysitting co-op but usually leaves only one twin there at a time. " want them to be individuals. The more they do on their own the more independent (of each other) they ll be. Other people think they look alike,o but don t think they look or sound alike at all." Sandra Todd of Bridgewater came to the meeting looking a little tired. She has H-monthold twins who are still not sleeping through the night. She says, "They wake me up 12 or 13 times a night. My mother and my husband are good about helping but my husband has to get up to go to work." She also commented that her doctor instructed her to feed the twins on demand because they needed the weight gain. The club members listened with sympathetic ears but then advised that she let them cry for a while because they are older now and know that if they cry they will be picked up. They have to learn to sleep through the night. This sort of advice is really the purpose of the club. Anyone with twins or triplets is invited to call Kathleen Heaphy at for information about the club or advice. The club is also looking for speakers and would appreciate any suggestions. -ALL JEWELRY 20%-50% OFF GONG OUT-OF-BUSNESS SALE -ALL CLOTHNG 30%-50% OFF The Cricket is Regretfully LEAVNG Princeton BEFORE the END OF JANUARY All merchandise will be sold at the LOWEST POSSBLE REDUCTONS. -ACCESSORES 30%-50% OFF Starts Tuesday, Jan 2 THE CRCKET BOUTQUE 2 Chambers St., Princeton, N.J LEATHER 30% OFF HANDBAGS STARTS TUES., JAN. 2 MAN STORE NASSAU STREET SHOP YARN SHOP ~r e~quare.

When asked about the twins she replied, "Each one is an individual. Sometimes one shows more affection than the other. With potty training one would be more cooperative than the other.

"This change will make the program more accessible for needy households who have not been able to come up with lump sums of cash each month to buy their food stamps," she said. "Many of the people expected to benefit from this change are elderly persons on small, fixed "incomes and the working poor." The change will cud the potential for fraud in handling" cash, since cash transactions will be eliminated. t also will reduce the number of food stamps in circulation and the federal costs of printing coupons. n the past, most househol~s had to pay cash to get food stamps. n return, they got food stamps worth more than they paid. The bonus stamps represented the amount by which food stamps increased their food purchasing power. Under the new program, households will only get their bonus stamps, without a purchase requirement. The program is administered through the Division of Public Welfare. According to G. Thomas Riti, director of the division, this change means that most participating households wffl receive fewer stamps, because they no longer will be exchanging their cash for a part of the food stamp allotment. Elimination of the purchase requirement is a major provision of new food stam~p legislation enacted to improve program administration. Other changes designed to tighten eligibility requirements and improve program services are scheduled to become effective in March, Mr. Riti said.

He said the university is eager to cooperate with the Canal Commission in preserving the canal area, but wants to retain title to its land. t is known that the university s campus plan extends from Nassau Street all the way to Route 1, and that plan would in the university s eyes be threatened should the state take over ownership of a strip of property that would effectively cut the huge tract in half. John Flemmer, one of the owners of Princeton Nurseries, also said it was not clear how much land the state wanted, though it had cited a tract of about 30 acres. He said he would fight the acquisition "to my last bullet." Mr. Amon said that all the commission wants is easements about 250 feet wide to asstire that land along the canal would not be developed by its present owners.

17 DECEMBER 27-28, 1978 TME OFF 3 Making movies amid friendly competition by Mary Ann Bischoff WlilLE NOT EXACTLY Hollywood- East, a variety of filmmakers and audiovisual production houses are thriving in the greater Princeton area. At least four companies are finding it is possible to exist out of a metropolis and their productions range from portions of Mission mpossible and Sesame Street to films on bicycle safety to television commercials and pieces used by large industry. Allscope Studios in West Windsor houses two large sound stages used for film or videotape production. n Princeton Junction, Telequest, nc. makes films, slide shows and videotaped productions. Visual Education Corp., also in Princeton Junction, makes products. for schools, including tape cassettes, slide shows, film strips and books. Film Loops nc., in Blawenburg concentrates on educational film loops on traffic safety, but also makes films and film strips. \\ \ SNCE TlE 1930 s, when alternative non-union shops such as 0n- Film and the Princeton Film Center brought New York City producers South, movie making has been a viable industry here. Future developments are difficult to predict, however, because the market and its techniques change so rapidly. Meanwhile. the nationwide tightening of spending in schools has left the educational market at a standstill, but entertainment and commercial fields are still wide open. These areas are what local producers are concentrating on and those involved in the companies find advantages here that big cities lack. "We would be busier in New York," remarked Fred Johnston, president of Allscope, "but we couldn t offer the same individual quality and attention." Says Richard Lidz, president of Visual Education: "We ve got the best of both worlds here. We have a less commercial, les$ pressured, academic environment and yet, all the resources of the metropolitan area are also at hand. believe our level of creativity is higher because of the special environment here." But at the same time, others observed a mixture of advantage and disadvantage of a suburban adddress. New York City would provide access to more resources, but would also entail far greater expense and a more intense level of competition, observed Sam Russell, Richard Blofson and Scott Neilson, officers of Telequest. A distinct plus, is the location s wealth of talent, many pointed out. Visual Ed, for instance, employs 23 people, but also takes advantage of the free-lance community. Writers, editors, camera people and graphic artists are all available here on a parttime, free lance basis, noted Mr. Lids. Even actors and subjects for primarysource oral histories are located easily through "friends of friends," he" has found. A RECENT GATHERNG of local Titanic survivors prompted the filming of an oral history eyewitness series on great disasters of the past century. The Visual Ed office in Princeton Junction station office park is piled high with boxes containing cassettes of those oral histories now being marketed for distribution. t s part of the company s effort to "bring the butside world into the classroom," Mr. Lidz explained. The company sells an idea for such a project to an educational publishing house, Dell, Butterick, Random House, Scholastic or Prentice Hall, for instance, then produces the book "in toto," and sells the entire package to the publisher. Richard Blofson, one of the three owners of Telequest, shoots through the window of a Jaguar XJS for a commercial.. Classroom subjects for all ages are covered. Visual Ed often rents equipment from New York but has much of its own tape equipment and 35mm still cameras. The office also houses a substantia 1 library of over 50,000 catalogued slides. ALLSCOPE ALSO rents equipment from New York studios on occasion, but has the only Kenworthy Snorkel Camera System east of California. t has two stages, one of them that is 50 by 65 by 22 feet, specially constructed with curved walls to avoid shadows from any angle. Segments of Sesame Street and Mission: mpossible have been filmed at Allscope. President Fred Johnston points out publicity stills from those productions hanging on his office wall. Recently, the J.C. Penney Christmas commercials were filmed at the Allscope studios and since the firm was formed in 1966, it has made about 1,500 industrial training films, sponsored by the companies involved, Mr. Johnston said. Mark Czaikowski Says Richard Lidz, of Visual Education "Our level of creativity is higher here than it would be in New York." THE MAJORTY of work done by Telequest is also in the industrial area. Located in a meandering, windowless brick-fronted building near the Princeton Junction railroad station, Telquest has been in existence only since January "You wouldn t believe how many people come in here and ask us what we do," said Sam Russell, vice president. Though a young company, Telequest has already established a weighty reputation in film, film strip and videotape production. "The work we do for industry allows us to have a financial base for other projects which are of a more personal interest to us," Mr. Russell said. The documentary background of president Richard Blofson prompted Telequest to produce three segments of the PBS series The Great Plains Experience, this year. While 16mm film is now its most frequently-used media, more involvement with videotape is projected, as Telequest s name suggests. FLM LOOPS is one company that has little to do with industry. ts prime customers are state departments of education on subjects of traffic safety. t develops an idea, sells it and produces the product. Film Loops works with still photography and 1from film to make strips and film loops with and without sound. This market was developed in 1970 by president J. Grey Jones who feels specializing is necessary for a small house to turn a profit. t operates with a small staff and relies heavily on free lance help. Asked if the name of Princeton has helped Film Loops, Mr. Jones replied, "No. You establish your own reputation, you can t depend on the area s, though find nothing lacking here. There is a wealth of talented free lancers to draw upon. The Princeton film community appears close knit and intercooperative. Communication is open and new developments are shared. n such a small area, with compulsorily shared sound mixing facilities (Herb Hagens Recording Studios, in Princeton), free-lancers, and research resources, this openness is probably hoped for, but not necessarily expected in a business with a reputation for being competitive. Mary Ann Bischoff is a reelance writer from Kendall Park.

(Across from Quakerbridge Mall) Lawrenceville (609) gallerg- by Ann Woolfolk OF THE TilREE featured shows now at the State Museum in Trenton, the most unusual is the one on dolls and doll houses. The dolls represented are mostly from the late 19th and early g0th centuries. They are made from a wide variety of materials including wood, wax, papier maehe, china and bisque. A woman from Princeton by the name of Esther LuttiKhuizen has made a beautiful group of dolls that form part of the exhibit. They are cloth, with oil painted faces and hand-stampedesigns on their clothes. The expressions on the faces are both droll and sophisticated. The doll houses, too, are worth mentioning. There are elaborate Victorian affairs stuffed with handsome carved furniture. Even the more modest contemporary models of clapboard or stucco have their rugs and lighting fixtures that resemble our own and thus delight our sense of the legitimate detail. TlE DRAWNGS of Leo Dee, another show, are unusual and quite lovely. The majority are done in silverpoint, a technique seldom seen nowadays. nstead of lead, the drawing instrument is made of a silver tip. This is used against a treated surface and produces a consistently monochromatic line. mages created in silverpoint have a clarity and smoothness not seen in pencil. Mr. Dee concentrates many of his efforts on drapery. These become landscapes in which the viewer is allowed to wander in and out of the intricate patterning at will. n several cases, color has been used. n all of his work Mr. Dee demonstrates a superb craftsmanship and superrealistie sense of surface. TE WATERCOLORS of Reeve, Sehley are represented at the Trenton State Museum and in Princeton at the Nassau Gallery, at 20 Nassau Street as well. There is a tremendously relaxed quality about these watercolors which captures the feeling of equally relaxed, if not almost totally static, landscapes. They are made up of spare configurations: a few chairs by a pool, a tennis player at the baseline of a court, tidal pools half-empty. n many of his works a low horizon crosses the page. The color too, is spare and applied deftly. There is no romanticizing involved in this work, just the painting of a fact as a fact. And yet, there is something compelling about" the solid way things are seen that make it a kind of Spartan poetry. Reeve Schley, like Leo Dee, is a New Jersey artist well worth seeing. i"./ the good will.of those we serve is the foundation of our success and it is a real pleasure at this time of the year to say "thank you" and extend to you our best wishes for the coming year FNE ART * POTTERY * JEWELRY in the montgomery shopping center routes 2068" 518, rocky hill (609) Hours: Mon.-Fri Sat OpenSundays 11-5 ~ b.., " " : " ;.7:,";:::7:".. :...

19 DECEMBER 27.28, 1978 TME OFF 5 Orchestra receives auditions grant NEWARK -- The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra has recently received a $35,000 grant from the Geraldine R. DodgeFoundation. This is the second year the Dodge Foundation has given the Orchestra a grant to underwrite its Young Artists Auditions, to be held this season in February and March. The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation of Morristown was created from the estate of Geraldine R. Dodge, daughter of William Rockefeller and the wife of M. Hartley Dodge. Upon her death in 1973 Mrs. Dodge bequeathed her entire residuary estate for charitable, scientific, literary or other educational purposes, or for the prevention of cruelty to animals or the encouragement of art. While the foundation has no geographical restrictions, the initial emphasis of grantmaking activities is New Jersey. The NJSO s Young Artists Auditions program received this money, according to the foundation, because it is expected that "this grant will provide a significant opportunity and inspiration for the young artits, the orchestra and the state." The auditions allow a number of gifted young musicians experience rehearsing and performing with one of America s major symphony orchestras. The young artists auditions, now in its fourth year, will be open to all New Jersey students of piano, violin, cello, oboe and horn whom have not passed their 20th birthday by Dec. 31, The preliminary phase is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 3 and Sunday Feb. 4.
