Rezoning of the
Glen Cove Mansion
The Glen Cove Mansion
• VICTORIA CROSBY
The rezoning of the former Pratt property in Glen Cove has been approved by
the City Council. At the recent Glen Cove
City Council meeting, Mayor Ralph
Suozzi assured everyone there, that prior
to the City Council voting on Resolution
6C, that “just the overlay zoning was to
be voted on, not the entire Mansion project, nor the proposed subdivision of 17 to
20 acres for housing.”
The item was listed on the agenda as:
“Resolution considering approving a
rezoning for the North Manor Estate
Project.” (Proposed by Mayor Suozzi.
Mayor Suozzi also stated that, “if the resolution of the overlay zoning was
approved, the subdivision plans must
then go to the Planning Board for further
consideration. This might include further
site, water & drainage testing.”
The meeting was well attended by
many residents, especially those in areas
which would be most impacted by the
changes: Dosoris Lane, Lattingtown
Road, Beechwood and Lattingtown
Ponds. There have been several public
hearings and heated discussions prior to
the vote.
After a Council recess of half an hour,
the resolution was approved but with
three nays from Councilmen Tony Gallo,
Tony Jiminez and Reggie Spinello. The
deciding vote was cast by the Mayor.
Reggie Spinello is running against Suozzi
in the upcoming mayoral election. The
zoning re-designation is considered a
compromise, since the Mansion, built in
Photo by Victoria Crosby
1910 for John and Ruth Pratt, could have
been demolished, and more houses built
had the zoning change not occurred.
Kristina Heuser, a Republican who is
running for City Council, commented
that this issue has seen very little honest
reporting, only fluff pieces about how the
mansion is being preserved. “ Since when
is changing the zoning to allow for subdivision and residential development
against the wishes of all of the surrounding residents preservation? That's
destruction of a beautiful piece of property and section of Glen Cove!” said
Heuser.
Sybil Carton, a resident of
Beechwood, said that “Beechwood and
the surrounding one acre planned developments are outraged at the ‘out of control’ Mayor’s recent actions. There would
be 20, two family houses, 40 units, on
less than 18 acres.”
Dr. Eve Lupenko, candidate for City
Council said, “the City Council made a
responsible decision, which, in the long
run, will protect the remainder of The
Mansion and the great lawn. This is reminiscent of the debate a few years ago
which allowed the development of 7
beautiful homes as compared to a massive development project, right across the
street from The Mansion.”
Meanwhile in nearby Manhasset, concerned residents fear that Inisfada, the
mansion built by Nicholas and
Genevieve Brady in 1916-20, and donated to the Jesuits in 1937, may be

Damaged Dock in OB
Faces Deadline
The dock in Oyster Bay’s western
waterfront needs repairs before it can
open for the Oyster Festival, October 1920.
The pier, damaged during Hurricane
Sandy, is used by local fishermen and also
is a primary dock for historic sailing ships
and vessels that are honored at the annual
festival. The pier has been off-limits since
the very destructive storm hit Long Island.
The pier was inspected by Nassau
Suffolk Engineering and Architecture, and
was determined to be structurally sound.
Town officials believe the work can be
done in time, and are confident that festival organizers can book the visiting ships,
as they must, in advance.
The decking and railing of the long
pier needs to be replaced, and has served
to dock various tall ships, the oyster sloop
Christine, and FDNY Fireboat John J.
Harvey. There is a competitive bid out on
the work and the town board is expected
to hire the contractor at an upcoming
meeting. The cost is not yet known.
Soccer Field
Vote Tabled
• VICTORIA CROSBY
At the recent Glen Cove City Hall
meeting another controversial vote was
tabled. The city has interest from a developer in Virginia who wishes to build
another assisted-living facility on
Pascucci Field. The public response was
very negative as Glen Cove already has
many assisted-living places and comments on Patch.com accuse the mayor of
not being transparent in this matter.
Mayor, Ralph Suozzi, stated that this has
been discussed for some time at precouncil meetings which are open to the
public. However, it was noted by another
comment on Patch.com that not many
people attend the pre-council meetings
because they are not permitted to comment at these meetings.
Adam Ramadan posted on Patch.com
that he was devastated that the mayor
would negotiate a potential contract and
then put it though a vote, rather than the
request for a proposal process. He also
asked why the public hasn’t been asked
what they would like to see happen to this
property. The mayor has subsequently
said that the city should have asked the
soccer community for their input.
Beechwood resident Sybil Carton said
that the Mayor’s “proposed selling of a
soccer field, especially this one, without
guaranteeing a new field without a public
hearing is off the charts.”
Pascucci Field is a regulation size,
lighted soccer field on 4 acres of property adjacent to the Glen Street train station
of the Long Island Rail Road.
Glen Cove Hospital
to Become
Ambulatory Only
The North Shore-Long
Island Health System that operates Glen Cove Hospital
announced Monday that in
2014 Glen Cove Hospital will
become an ambulatory care
facility due to under utilization
of its declining patient volume
and the change in hospital
reimbursement
under
Obamacare. Hospitals under
the new law will receive less compensation for each procedure and test.
Hospital authorities were quick to
mention that the 24-hour emergency
room would remain as well as ambulatory surgery, The Monti Cancer Center,
medical offices, and an outreach center.
Programs such as orthopedic surgery and
rehabilitation and psychiatry will be
moved to nearby facilities.
The news prompted Glen Cove
Mayor Ralph Suozzi to express concern
over the impact the change will have
upon the local economy and especially
the many Glen Cove medical practices
that service patients. The State
Department of Health will have the final
say on the proposed changes.
Hunger Relief
The Summer Food Service Program,
through the hunger relief organization
Island Harvest Food Bank, offers free
lunches for children 18 and younger, at
the Robert M. Finley Middle School at
70 Forest Ave, this summer. Hunger is a
real problem on Long Island. These supplemental meals help children receive
adequate nutrition.
The program is administered by the
Food and Nutrition Service, and managed at the local level by USDA sponsors, including local government agencies, camps, and non-profit organizations
such as Island Harvest. The program
started on July 8th at Finley. Feeding
America, the leading domestic hungerrelief organization, reported 62 percent of
client households with children under 18
participate in the National School Lunch
Program, but in the summer, only 14 percent are in a summer feeding program.
According to the United States
Department of Agriculture, 16.7 million
children under 18 live in households
where they are unable to consistently
access enough nutritious food necessary
for a healthy life. Although food insecurity is harmful to any individual, it can be
particularly devastating among children,
due to their increased vulnerability and
the potential for long-term consequences.
16.7 million, or approximately 23
percent of children in the U.S., live in
poverty.

for Programs and Agency Relation, for

OUT OF GAS
This month the Motor City of
Detroit filed for federal bankruptcy protection since it could no
longer function under its massive
debt load. This day of reckoning
has been forecast for years by
responsible municipal analysts,
however the city has resisted,
thanks to the infusion of cash from
bondholders seeking high returns
on their investments. With approximately 40 percent of the city’s
total income from taxes and fees
earmarked for pension payments
to former city employees, not
enough was left for debt retirement, and ongoing city services.
The Detroit bankruptcy was
years in the making with excessive
demands by municipal employees,
which compliant city government
officials were happy to grant for
labor peace and reciprocity at election time. Also included in the
toxic brew were the rating agencies that touted Detroit municipal
bonds as a safe investment with
high returns. A trip to Detroit, or
viewing a video depicting the viability of Detroit, would have convinced any awake investor or
financial advisor that this was not
a city in decline, but one that was
already dead. Its city services,
such as police and fire, have been
reduced to the point where crime
and fires have spiked, leaving
those residents who have
remained, to suffer the consequences of poor management and
governmental corruption.
Detroit may be the first major
American city to experience the
consequences of fiscal irresponsibility and poor governance in the
delivery of necessary municipal
services, but clearly it will not be
the last. As long as we elect lowintellect individuals to positions of
responsibility who cave into the
excessive demands of municipal
employee unions, the recipe for
disaster is assured.
Detroit was the first. Which
other U.S. city will be next?

A SPECIAL THANKS
FROM A SPECIAL GUY
To the Editor,
Congratulations and thank you for
your excellent special graduation keep
sake edition of July 3, 2013. I know that
all of the graduates will appreciate your
caring and support.
I am proud that I had the opportunity
to work closely with so many superintendents, principals, staff, students and
their parents when I served as a Nassau
County 4-H Club agent and as a monitor
and mentor.
I send my congratulations and best
wishes to the all.
proclamation by the Glen Cove City
Council; which I was informed was
approved at its July 23 meeting.
The good that results from approving
this proclamation cannot be weighed and
measured for consequence. As I said following the meeting I scheduled with the
Mayor and Connie and Bob, it is an
important symbol for the city; a way to
show respect and honor the veterans who
served in this country’s wars and were
wounded during the course of that service. It is a gesture that pays tribute to so
many who have sacrificed so much on
behalf of our country.
The citizens of Glen Cove should be
proud of this accomplishment.

GLEN COVE DESGINATED
A PURPLE HEART CITY
To the Editor,
WHAT HAPPENED TO
MAYOR SUOZZI’S PLEDGE?
THE LEADER IS ONLINE!
To the Editor,
What happened to Mayor Suozzi’s
open transparent government pledge?
I have been very displeased, to say the
least, for the last seven years. While
attending Tuesday, July 23’s city council
This past June, I was visited by
Conrad “Connie” Steers and Bob
Chiappone, both of whom are affiliated
with the Military Order of the Purple
Heart (MOPH), with a straight forward
and honorable request. Can Glen Cove
become a Purple Heart City?
For those who are unfamiliar with
MOPH, it was founded in 1932 and chartered by an Act of Congress in 1958 to
recognize military men and women who
were wounded in combat. It provides support for all veterans, scholarship programs for members and their families
while maintaining communication with
members of Congress on issues key to all
veterans.
I asked Connie and Bob to join me at
a meeting with the Glen Cove City Mayor
to ask if he might be willing to put the
measure before the City Council for discussion and ultimately a vote.
Designating Glen Cove a Purple Heart
City required not much more than a

meeting along with a packed room of citizens, I learned along with everyone that
the Mayor had on the agenda to vote to
sell public parkland. I am disappointed
and angry that the Mayor had negotiated
behind closed doors to sell the public
property known as Pascucci Field to a private company. His indifference to the
people of Glen Cove is outstanding; he
never brought this out in public to hear
what the people thought about it. He
never even posted a request for proposal
(RFP).
If he had, at least he might have generated interest from the private business
sector and produced bids. It is time to say
good-bye to this unresponsiveness to the
citizens of Glen Cove and to the lack of
transparency of his government.

EPA Funding For Glen Cove
Wastewater Plant Advisory
Committee Established
Temporary repairs were made to the
wastewater treatment plants after
Hurricane Sandy to protect the health of
the residents of Nassau County.
Permanent repairs to the plants need to be
made so that the facilities can withstand
the impact of future storms. County
Executive Edward P. Mangano ordered
an advisory committee to meet bi-monthly with the Commissioner of Public
Works and the Office of Legislative
Budget Review to evaluate the
status/progress of the repair and rehabili-
tation of the wastewater treatment plants.
Mangano has called for an investment
of over $700 million in repairs. Other
members on the committee will come
from the following organizations:
Citizens Campaign for the Environment,
Operation Splash, Sludge Stoppers,
League of Conservation Voters, Point
Lookout Civic Association, Vision Long
Island, and the Nassau Coalition of Civic
Associations. After each meeting, a
progress report is to be sent to County
Executive Mangano.

It was announced last week by U.S.
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a member of
the Environment and Public Works
Committee, that the Environmental
Protection Agency will provide $815,000
to Nassau County for cleanup of the
Doxey site in Glen Cove. The site is the
final brownfield site in Glen Cove’s
Waterfront Redevelopment Area to be
decontaminated. It is estimated the completion of the Waterfront Redevelopment
Area project will create 7000 temporary
construction jobs and 750 permanent
jobs.
Senator Gillibrand announced legislation to revitalize inactive industrial sites
when she was at Glen Cove Ferry terminal and Boat Basin last year. The
Senator’s Waterfront
Brownfields
Revitalization Act will award similar
grants to nonprofit organizations and
other local governments that redevelop
abandoned and underused industrial
properties on waterfronts.
The Doxey site is crucial for the city’s
plans for redevelopment of the waterfront. Brownfields are harmful to surrounding environments and habitats . At
least 38 acres of Hempstead Harbor are
impacted by contaminants, reducing the
quality of the habitat available for
wildlife, fish and shellfish. In the sediment of Glen Cove Creek, a high concentration of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals were identified.
An estimated 450,000 contaminated
sites in the U.S. are targeted for cleanup
and redevelopment. The EPA’s brownfields investments have leveraged more
than $20 billion in cleanup and redevelopment funding. The funding has
enabled 90,000 jobs, in construction,
cleanup, and redevelopment.

Supervisor Venditto and the
‘Music Under the Stars’ Concerts
Great music of the fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties highlights the fourth
week of the Town of Oyster Bay’s
“Music Under The Stars” concert series,
Supervisor Venditto announced. All concerts begin at 8 p.m., unless otherwise
noted.
On Wednesday, July 31, the Nassau
Pops Symphony Orchestra, conducted by
founder Lou Panacciulli, will perform at
Plainview-Old Bethpage Park, located on
Washington Avenue in Plainview. The
orchestra will be performing some of the
most beloved songs from Broadway, television and the movies.
“The Nassau County Pops are highly
regarded for presenting an entertaining
mix of popular and light classical music,”
Supervisor
Venditto
remarked.
“Renowned harmonica virtuoso Jia-Yi
will be a special guest that night, and
vocalists Jack and Ann Cassin will perform love songs from some of the biggest
hits on Broadway. This will be a very
special night for fans of many music genres.”
The month of August begins with hit
songs from the 80s floating through the
summer air at Ellsworth W. Allen Town
Park, located on Motor Avenue in
Farmingdale. 80s tribute band Rubix
Kube will rock the park on Thursday,
August 1. Also appearing will be Lisa
Lisa, who, with her band Cult Jam,
recorded some of that decade’s most
memorable hits.
“Lisa Lisa is famous for the number
one hits ‘Head to Toe,’ and ‘Lost in
Emotion,’ which she recorded with her
band Cult Jam,” Supervisor Venditto
said. “She has been called ‘The Queen of
Latin Dance,’ and it is with great excitement that the Town of Oyster Bay welcomes her. In addition, guests will also
hear one of the best and most original
eighties tribute bands, Rubix Kube. It
should be a fantastic night with songs
from a decade that produced great
music.”
On Friday, August 2, fans of The
Beatles and Chicago will want to be at
John J. Burns Park in Massapequa, where
the cast of Beatlemania, as well as
Beginnings, a Chicago tribute band, will
delight fans.
The Supervisor continued, “Chicago
is one of the most successful bands in
American music history and Beginnings
presents an honest, inspiring and entertaining tribute to the music of this group.
Beginnings has entertained so many
throughout the country and it’s exciting
to welcome the group to the Town of
Oyster Bay.”
The fourth week of “Music Under
The Stars” concludes with some of the
most well-known music of the 50s and
60s as Lenny Cocco and the Chimes,
Tommy Mara and the Crests, and Shirley
Alston Reeves, the former lead singer of
the Shirelles, will all be performing at
John J. Burns Park, in Massapequa, on
Saturday, August 3.
The Supervisor concluded by reminding residents that they are encouraged to
bring a lawn chair or blanket to the performances. For more information about
the “Music Under the Stars” program,

Department of Community and Youth
Services at 516-797-7900.
TOB “Green” Public Parking and Beach Permits
If you are an Oyster Bay Town resident who drives a hybrid or alternative
fuel vehicle, you are eligible for no cost
“green” public parking and beach permits, according to Oyster Bay Town
Clerk Jim Altadonna Jr.
“As a way of rewarding those who
already have chosen ‘green energy’ vehicles, and to further encourage others to
do so, the Town offers free ‘green’ permits for parking at the railroad stations,
and free ‘green’ permits for the Town
beaches,” Town Clerk Altadonna said.
“Our environment is one of our most precious resources, and throughout
Supervisor Venditto’s tenure, its preservation has been made one of our top priorities. I am proud to continue to offer
this incentive to Town residents who continue to choose to ‘live green.’”
The Town Clerk went on to say that
residents are required to provide docu-

Free Photo ID’s for Children
The KidPix program provides parents
a convenient way to keep their children’s
important information on a single, wallet
sized ID card. Along with a picture, fingerprint and contact information, the
identification card includes the date of
birth, physical description and gender of
the child. If ever a child is missing, parents can present the KIdPix card to law
enforcement officials as a helpful tool to
help return the child quickly.
Nassau County children of all ages
can participate in the Kid Pix program.
Nassau County Executive Edward P.
Mangano has put forth this program, to
protect children. The closest center, to
Locust Valley, to get the ID card, on the
spot, would be the Port Washington
Library, 1 Library Drive, on Thursday,
August 15th between 10:00 A.M. and
1:00 P.M.
GC Theater Talks Continue
Mayor Ralph Suozzi is working on
efforts to reopen the Glen Cove movie
theatre, which has been closed since
March. The mayor is in direct contact
with the equity group purchaser of the
theatre’s note, and the theatre’s previous
operator.
Incentives and financial assistance
have been offered to both parties, includ-
ing the Industrial Development Agency
and the city’s resources. The Chamber of
Commerce and Downtown Business
Improvement District are discussing a
“welcome back” plan. Many people in
Glen Cove want the theatre back, including the local restaurants, which have lost
a lot of business since the theatre closed.

Reflections of a Bygone Era:
“Knoles” (Part Two)
• ORIN Z. FINKLE
In last month’s Reflections article, I
acknowledged that Knole, the former
Herman Duryea / Bradley Martin estate
at Old Westbury, was a delight to visit.
Each time that I drove through the open
iron gates during a twenty year period, I
entered a private domain set apart from
the world outside.
As Part One concluded last month,
there I was waiting in the entrance hall of
Knole, holding documents containing
mansion photos. Rapidly walking
towards me was Esmond Bradley Martin,
the estate’s owner. He was tall, in his mid
sixties at the time, very well dressed with
tan pressed slacks, navy blazer and a cool
gold tinted ascot. With a big smile, he
introduced himself as we shook hands.
He was very interested in viewing the
materials that I had uncovered. Before
we sat down to peruse, Mr. Martin insisted on showing the house. That was exactly what I had hoped.
We climbed one of two separated marble staircases, both leading to the most
spectacular rotunda that I’ve ever seen. I
stared upward in absolute amazement.
(Last year’s much overused expression
“awesome”, would for this year’s fad
word be called “amazing”.) There was no
other area just like this in any other Long
Island mansion. The splendid huge oval
shaped space was well over forty feet
high, bordered by a second floor railed
circular balcony, surrounded outer rows
of windows allowing in the brilliant sunlight. Set high above it all was a majestic
domed ceiling. This had to be the center
of the house, the point from which everything radiated. Many wide archways lead
to huge surrounding rooms. The walls of
the entire rotunda were composed of
blocks of Caen stone imported from
Normandy. The highly polished floor
appeared to be large red terra cotta
squares leading through entrances far
down long corridors. A central wide
sweeping white marble staircase leading
up towards many bedrooms completed
the interior architectural masterpiece. I
eventually saw each of Knole’s seventeen
fireplaces, most were pristine and carved
from Italian marble.
The exterior of Knole, as viewed from
the south elevation, had the look of an
ancient Italian Palladian two story villa,
quite unlike the site presented at the front
entrance. A rectangular reflecting pool
with water fountain situated between the
rear wings, fashioned a balance, added
charm and also a gentle mist. Five, thirty
foot high marble columns stood on the
east side of the lawn and a series staircases leading to multi terraced colorful
English gardens with exquisite statuary
and distant lily pond, lay to the west.
I could ramble on for pages detailing
the immense rooms with twenty foot ceilings, antique marble fireplaces, imported
vintage paneling, ornate plaster work,
exotic wall coverings and massive arched
French doors and windows, but as space
will allow, I’ll write a bit more about
some unique experiences.
Esmond, the son of Bradley Martin
and Helen Phipps, moved to the family
Knole Rear Elevation, circa 1906
residence of Knole during the early
1960s. He was the grandson of Henry
Phipps, steel magnate and partner of
Andrew Carnegie back in the day.
Esmond lived there alone but had two
housekeepers who performed the daily
cleaning and cooking chores.
He
appeared sort of shy yet a well mannered
gracious gentleman. He pursued varied
interests such as chess, collecting vintage
pocket watches, playing lawn or court
tennis, cultivating orchids, collecting
stamps and filling the cozy library with
leather bound rare books.
After the tour of mansion and gardens,
time was spent looking over the old estate
related magazines, books and post cards
from my collection. He had been unaware
how much past publicity the property had
warranted. I left some materials in his
possession to study for a few weeks and
upon my return, he asked if I had additional society magazines from the 1930s.
Of course, I had collected just a few hundred period magazines at that time but in
the 1980s the archives were rapidly
expanding. So for the next twenty years,
Finkle became a “bookmobile”, picking
up the magazines and books that he had
viewed and delivering “new” vintage
issues. Esmond discovered that many of
his friends and relatives appearing on
those old glossy black and white pages
were photographed while attending Long
Island gala’s, playing polo, at weddings
and just hob knobbing with others in society. He enjoyed searching Town and
Country, Spur, Vogue, Country Life,
House and Garden and architectural publications for bits of nostalgic remnants
from his past.
From the 1970s through the1990s
Knole was utilized as a location for feature movies, television shows and advertisements. In his words, the fees received
for allowing the use of his property
“helped to pay the real estate taxes.” It
was an out-of-body experience, chatting,
laughing and dining with famous film
stars prior to and between takes. Some of
the many movies filmed at Knole, were
“The Purple Rose of Cairo” in 1985 with
Woody Allen directing, Jeff Daniels and
Mia Farrow in the title roles. I returned
each day for an entire week and mingled
with cast and crew. A few years later,

by several speakers.
In her welcoming remarks, Interim

Bogdanoff, talked about the reality of
change when she related, “Someone once
said, ‘the only constant in our lives is
change.’ Today is your graduation day, a
day of change. You leave school today…
tomorrow, you can look forward to the
next set of changes.” She encouraged the
graduates to have confidence in their
skills, by adding, “I know that you will
cope with these changes.”
Nancy Tseng, a 2004 Mill Neck graduate, relayed some experiences from her
seven years at Mill Neck. She concluded
by suggesting to the graduates, “take the
next step to achieving your dreams.”

Therapist Betty Quartuccio offered their
words of inspiration, as well as their personal recollections of the class of 2013.
Prior to the conferring of diplomas and
awards, Valedictorian Jhovaughn Palmer
recalled his own memories of 13 years he
spent at Mill Neck. After several
vignettes, he acknowledged the Mill
Neck community for helping him
become the young man he’s grown into,
by saying, “I am smarter, because of you.
I am an individual, with a personality that
makes people laugh, because of you. I am
a more responsible person who understands the challenges in life, because of
you. I know
now that I can
achieve any
goal I set out
to
accomplish, because
of you!”

It is hard to believe our
Summer Day Camp ends on
Friday, August 16th. For many
families this is a time to vacation
and make extended family visits
before revving up again for the
start of school in September.
However, here at the Club, this
time of year signals our annual
scheduled maintenance and beautification program. There’s a window of opportunity for the staff,
after the Club closes to the kids for
the season, for floors to be stripped
and refinished, carpets cleaned,
walls repainted, repairs made and
in general to spruce up the Club.
Another end of the season ritual is the annual End of Summer
Picnic and this year is no exception. The annual picnic is scheduled for Friday, August 16th, from
12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Our
Summer Day Camp staff have put
together a last-gasp-of-summer,
fun-filled afternoon for a barbeque
that will include favorites such as
hamburgers, hotdogs, drinks,
games, sports, inflatables and
much, much more. All our
Summer Day Camp kids and their
families are invited to attend.
Volunteers are needed for set up,
servers, food donation and clean
up. Contact Anita, our Camp
Director, at 676-1460, ext 16, if
you are able to help.
The saying goes whenever one
door closes another opens, and
these words aptly apply to
Grenville Baker Boys & Girls
Club. In closing the door to summer programming, we open the
door to fall. Following the buzz of
activity by our hardworking staff
giving the building a much needed
face lift, we prepare for the registration of members, new and old,
for the 2013-2014 school year. On
Tuesday, September 10th the Club
will host an Open House from
5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. to kick-off
registration for membership, transportation and fall programs. After
the Open House all forms are
available at the Club and you can
register in person Monday thru
Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or
call 676-1460 with any questions
you may have. I look forward to
seeing you all at the picnic. Then
be sure to enjoy the rest of the
summer and we’ll see you in
September.

Theodore Jenkins of Locust Valley
was presented with a war medal authorized by Congress to be given to those
who served honorably as prisoners of
war during World War I and II, the
Korean War and the Vietnam War.
During World War II, Mr. Jenkins
served with the 409th infantry regiment
of the 103rd infantry division with the
7th army in combat in the Vosges
Mountains in France. He was captured
on December 10, 1944 near Strasbourg.
During his time as a prisoner, Mr.
Jenkins weight dropped from 165
pounds to 103 pounds. He was freed on
May 10, 1945. After wandering nearly
25 miles through Czechoslovakia, he

Howard has been active at Temple Sinai
of Roslyn for many years. He and his
wife Marjorie were married by Rabbi
Kahan, Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Sinai

eighteen years. Howard and Marjorie’s
children became B’nei Mitzvah and were
confirmed at Temple Sinai. Additionally,
Howard has been active on the Religious

of the Chai Society. Most recently
Howard served as Vice President of the
congregation.
“I am honored to be given the opportunity to lead this incredible temple for
the next two years,” remarks Dr. Berrent.
“Temple Sinai has always been a welcoming community, a supportive community. A home away from home that is
there for you when you need it, want it,
look for solace, need time to pray; it is
even there when you are not looking for
it. My goal as President is to make
Temple Sinai an even more engaging
community, with services, programming
and educational opportunities relevant to
each and every congregant. Working
alongside our new Executive Vice
President, Jon Cheris, Vice Presidents
Rich Evans, Lara Weinstock and
Michelle Golden, and under the leadership of Temple Sinai’s Senior Rabbi,
Michael White, I am looking forward to
helping to transform Temple Sinai into an
even more connected, meaningful and
engaging congregation.”
“As Executive Vice President for the
past two years, and a long-time congregant and lay leader, Howard has already

32nd Annual LIU Post Chamber Music Festival
• CHLOE WENDELL
This week the LIU Post Chamber
Music Festival presented its 32nd annual
summer concert series featuring students,
young professionals, and veteran musicians at the various recital halls on campus. The festival is a three-week-long
adventure that challenges all who participate to take their playing to the next
level with standard repertoire from
Mendelssohn symphonies to Beethoven
quartets. The focus of the festival is
chamber music, which provides musicians the opportunity to shine like a
soloist while among their peers in a small
ensemble. Chamber music allows the
students to learn how to communicate
and work as a team while building bonds
with their ensemble partners.
Wednesday and Thursday were all
about showcasing the quartets, quintets,
septets and ensembles that worked hard
all through July to learn and perform
their pieces for audiences at the Hillwood
Recital Hall and the Cinema Recital Hall
at LIU Post. Students as young as nine
years old had the chance to perform
alongside musicians their own age, and
even professionals in the field. Members
of The Pierrot Consort (the ensemble-inresidence at LIU Post), Susan Deaver,
Dale Stuckenbruck, Veronica Salas,
Haewon Kim and Maureen Hynes
played alongside festival participants in
some of the groups, and on Friday, July
19th, violist of the Emerson Quartet,
Lawrence Dutton, even gave a special
master class for selected ensembles. On
Tuesday July 23rd, The Imani Winds, a
wind quintet dedicated to premiering
new works around the globe as well as
participating educational residencies that
reach thousands of students each year,
performed a concert at LIU Post to the
delight of the Festival participants.
Many of the ensembles in the Festival
showcase families. Sarah, Angela, and
Laura Bogen are all sisters who play violin, flute, and cello, respectively. Chloe
Wendell, Amanda Segale, and William
Halpern, who play viola,
violin, and bassoon, are all
cousins, and the directors
of the festival found a
quartet for bassoon and
strings so they could play
together. Music brought
even more families
together in the Festival
Chamber Orchestra concert on Friday July 26th,
when the full orchestra
(l-r): Amanda Segale, violin, William Halpern, bassoon,
played at Tilles Center.

Small World – Wicked Webs
• CHRIS ROBERTS
Flowers are in full bloom, the air is
hot and humid, and air conditioners
everywhere hum 24/7. Yes, it can only
mean one thing. It’s spider season. That
time of year when I give up working in
the garden until first frost. I did my best
during spring and early summer, and now
my flora must face the world alone. Even
so, my nemeses will search me out and
attempt to engage me in battle. I’ll awaken to webs strung across my doors, their
makers huddled in corners, chuckling, no
doubt, as they await my capture. There
are few sensations more viscerally distressing than that of spiders’ silk alighting
on skin.
My Audubon field guide to insects
and spiders has been taken off the shelf
and now sits on my coffee table - the better to know my enemy. The photos alone
can induce a gag reflex, but I am compelled to know what I’m up against.
There I find my public enemy number
one – the Wolf Spider. Audubon
describes it as, “dark or with lengthwise
dark and light stripes. Covered with long
hair.” Its hobbies include, “basking in the
sun, keeping warm and ready for quick
pursuit of potential prey.”
“Spiders don’t scare me,” you say?
Then perhaps you don’t know these vampires of the insect world well enough.
According to Audubon, “Below the
eyes are 2 small jaws…that end in fangs.
Venom is produced in glands and empties
through a duct in the fangs…used to paralyze or kill prey.”
Who of us hasn’t relaxed upon a sofa,
a la Miss Muffet, when between the cushions emerges an arachnid heading
toward, rather than away from us? Tell
me you haven’t screamed in hysteria,
even if you were alone and defenseless.
And who among us doesn’t hesitate,
before inserting his or hand in the mailbox.
Here is my spider story. One morning,
I awaken and stroll into the living room
on a bright and warm summer’s day. In
short order, I notice an insect on the ceiling. It is quite large, so I assume it is a
cellar cricket. With that, I blithely grab a
broom and swat it down. It lands on my
sofa and disappears between the cushions. Tissue in hand, I pull up the cushion
only to find myself face to face with the
dreaded Wolf Spider. Only inches away, I
am overwhelmed with the fight or flight
instinct. Alone in the house, my will to
survive takes control – for if I don’t kill
it now, it will continue to threaten me in
my own home and I may have to move.
And so I slip my shoe off and pummel it
over and over, until it is reduced to a
medium-sized stain. Even so, I use half a
dozen paper towels to scrape away its
remains. That is the power this monster
has over me.
“What a coward,” you say? “Afraid
of something thousands of times smaller
than yourself,” you deride? Then I submit the following for your consideration.
Sister-in-law Melissa sifts through
papers stored in her basement. The light
is dim. This part of the house is musty as
it is rarely dusted - typical of most
homes. Suddenly a searing pain is felt in
her forearm just below the elbow.
Melissa jumps back and inspects the area
only to find a large circle of red. The pain
is nearly unbearable to the point of causing her to gasp for air over and over
again.
She runs to the doctor who offers no
explanation for her injury, and is sent
home with instructions to take over the
counter pain medication. That night,
Melissa cannot sleep as the pain is unrelenting. The following day, she calls poison control. By now, the hot red welt has
expanded, creating dare I say, spidery
lines heading toward her hand. Poison
control informs her that she may have a
spider bite and calls her doctor with
instructions for an antidote. After days of
agony, the bite begins to heal.
Ahead weeks later, Melissa returns to
her basement to finish the document
search that started her ill-fated adventure. There in the dim, she sees her –
shiny black, large abdomen with a red
hourglass tattooed to her underbelly – the
black widow spider. Melissa runs for her
bug spray, but the assassin is long gone
by the time she returns – never to be
found.
So should you drive by my home and
tsk that the bushes could use a good trimming, or that the garden needs weeding,
perhaps you’ll stop and remember why
I’ve ceased attending to my grounds.
And Melissa, Audubon says that the
black widow can survive up to three
years.
