Wanted: Turkeys for
Project Thanksgiving
A
s American families give thanks for their
blessings this Thanksgiving, local communi-
ties must also remember their neighbors.
Thousands of families throughout the region con-
tinue to struggle with high unemployment. As New
Jerseys poorest county, many Cumberland County
families are in great need.
For the fifth year, Project Thanksgiving will join
the Salvation Army to provide turkeys throughout
Cumberland County. The Atlantic County Salvation
Army in Minotola is joining the effort this
Thanksgiving. Gloucester County's 2013 turkey
drive will support the Food Bank of South Jersey.

Thanksgiving organizers and longtime friends, have

ight here in Vineland, a kindergartner remem-

remembers nothing, except her teacher slumped
in tears. A fifth grade teacher thinks a boy is fibbing
when he brings the news. A local woman saw the

thought it was war.
The Grapevine asked for your stories. What we got
was your hearts. Here are the personal reactions of local
residents to that ominous but riveting weekend so long
ago in time, but so recent in impact. Strip away the clut-

Betsy Blowers, a Vineland resident, but an airline
stewardess based in Dallas at the time, says she
encountered Lee Harvey Oswald's assassin in a bar
near her apartment on the night of November 22, 1963.
She was 24 and living on the motorcade route where
she watched the President pass by minutes before he
was shot.
Jack Ruby killed Oswald two days later in the basement
of the Dallas municipal building. He pushed through a
crowd of reporters and shot Oswald once in the stomach.
Blowers said she knew Ruby mostly by his unsavory
reputation.
I just knew him because he came into that bar a
few times, he wasn't a friend or anything, she said.
We knew he was the strip club owner. He was a pisser,
real cocky, fun, but I usually thought what a jerk.
That night, she said, It was not a bar atmosphere; it
wasnt fun, it was like a morgue. Ruby stopped at the

Downtown Vineland
{ BY TODD NOON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, VDID / MAINSTREET VINELAND }
I
W
hen a new business opens
downtown, it is an occa-
sion to celebrate and when
a business closes, we are
sad to see it go. When a longtime down-
town business shuts its doors, however, it
is a time of special sadness.
When Martini Shoes closes early next
year, it will truly be the end of an era. It
will be the end of a 94-year family tradi-
tion, an achievement that few businesses
in our downtown are likely to duplicate.
But owners Frank and Lynn Martini want
to retire, so it is certainly well-deserved.
A time existed when Martini Shoes was
one of many shoe stores downtown. Forlan
Shoes, The Boston Shoe Store, Endicott
Johnson, The Shoe Center, and Faiths Shoe
Store are just some that are fond memories.
With the closing of Martini Shoes, only
Als Shoes will be left downtown stocking
dress and leisure shoes and upholding the
tradition of the privately owned shoe store
with friendly customer service.
The history and tradition of Martini
Shoes reflects a lot of the history and tradi-
tion of Vinelands cultural melting pot and
downtown growth. Franks grandfather,
Frank R. Martini, came over fromItaly in
1920 and started to sell shoes out of his
house on East Avenue. He later moved the
business to Landis Avenuein the old Baker
House hotelmoving the business across
the street when the hotel burned down in
1940. His sons, George F. and Harry J.
Martini, came into the business with him
and they operated out of that building until
1958, when they moved three doors down to
their present location. They occupied half
of the bottomfloor of the building, which
once housed the F.W. Woolworth store.
Georges son Frank S. Martini and Franks
wife Lynn later took over the business and
have been running it ever since.
Martini Shoes has not only played a role
in the history of our downtown, but it has
played an important role as an active part
of Landis Avenues business community.
Frank and Lynn, like their ancestors, have
been active and vocal in their care and con-
cern for Landis Avenue and their fellow
downtown merchants. Years before the
Vineland Downtown Improvement District
and Main Street Vineland even existed, the
Martinis were active members of the
Merchants Association, made up of repre-
sentatives of downtown businesses.
Their business is a prime example of
what a downtown business should be and
what is should exemplify. Their business
was built on the principle of establishing
personal customer relationships. That prin-
ciple has resulted in generations of the
same families coming back again and again
to Martini Shoes for new shoes and servic-
ing. It also has resulted in customers com-
ing from as far away as Cape May for that
same personal service.
More recently, their business model has
expanded to take in Lynn Martinis talents
as an artist. They have hosted artists recep-
tions in their store. You could come in,
browse the artwork of Lynn and several
other artists, enjoy some refreshments, and
come home having purchased a work of art
and, perhaps, a new pair of shoes. This
kind of creative marketing is encouraged by
Main Street and is something that we
would like to see more businesses emulate.
All of us at Main Street Vineland thank
Frank and Lynn for their years of service
and dedication and wish them a happy
retirement. Theirs will be big shoes to fill.
***
Our last major event of the year, and the
biggestthe Main Street Holiday Parade
will take place on November 30 (with
Sunday, December 1 as the rain date). The
parade, sponsored by Susquehanna Bank,
will start at 5 p.m. and will have Rock n
Roll Holiday as its theme. The deadline
has passed to register to participate in the
parade and no registrations will be allowed
the night of the parade. Come out, get into
the holiday spirit, and have a great time! I

T
his year has witnessed the pub-
lication of Scrap Iron, the first
book by Mark J. Brewin Jr. The
author was born and raised in
Vineland and the poetry contained in his
collection mixes familiar sites with person-
al recollections that were instrumental in
shaping an identity. Even the pieces that
describe moments spent in other parts of
the world carry with them a trace of the
hometown that nurtured him. But the
books publication also allows Brewin to
join a distinguished category of
Vinelanders who have fulfilled a crucial
facet of founder Charles K. Landiss vision.
From its inception, Vineland was meant
to be a society of free thinkers. It would be
accurate to say that Landis, a voracious
reader of everything from Shakespeare to
the Victorian authors published in his life-
time, actually recruited intellectuals, artists
and reformers by targeting New England in
his ad campaigns. And once here in an
environment that encouraged ideas and
discussion, new residents were provided a
forum for their talents in the form of Plum
Street Hall, where lectures, debates and
renowned guests drew packed houses.
There was even an annual $100 prize
awarded by the town founder for the best
poetry and prose written about Vineland.
Anna Marie Spaulding was one of the
first residents of the town when she and her
husband left Pennsylvania to settle here in
June 1862, just ahead of Vinelands first
birthday. More importantly, Spaulding was
the citys first poet, penning such verse as
the following invitation that cleverly adver-
tises the towns qualities by simply offering
the disadvantages of other locations:
Come to Vineland, come to Vineland
From the citys stifled air,
From the snowy northern mountains,
From the old farms worn and bare;
Come away from cold New England,
Come, too, from the far Northwest,
Where alike the chains of winter
Bind in slavery Natures breast.
According to a Times Journal article,
the 1865 publication of a volume of
Spauldings poetry coincided with the
authors death by consumption. But the
poetess had paved the way for future gen-
erations of authors that include todays
Brewin and Nancy Steelman whose verse
explores the curious relationship between
town and writer.
In 1866, Marcius Wilson arrived in
Vineland. Born in 1813, Wilson was a
native of Stockbridge, Massachusetts, and
had established a solid reputation as a
writer of textbooks and research volumes.
The Times Journal reports that most likely
millions of elementary school children
over the land had some knowledge of
Wilsons books, as he turned out a series of
school and family readers for most of the
elementary grade levels. His primer alone
sold one million copies. The newspaper
also specifies that his published output
included histories, spellers, art manuals,
trigonometry texts and other books on a
wide variety of subjects.
Wilson built his home here on Landis
Avenue east of Main Road and struck up a
friendship with Landis. He continued to
produce his texts while in Vineland, even
using local printers to publish some of them.
Another of the towns early writers was
Reverend Adolph Roeder who was born in
Baltimore in 1856. He arrived in New
Jersey when he and his father settled in
Egg Harbor. After years of studying for the
ministry in Philadelphia and graduating
from the Episcopal Academy, he attended
the Swedenborgian Theological Seminary.
When he took over a pastorate in
Vineland, he became the editor of the
church newspaper. However, he did not
limit himself to the news of his congrega-
tion. Roeder became a regular contributor
to secular publications throughout the
United States. His writings were also pub-
lished in France, Germany and India.
Roeder also began writing books for ado-
lescents and completed several volumes of
poetry.
Not all of Vinelands authors have
achieved worldwide recognition or fame,
but even the books of those who reached a
significant level of success are sadly out of
print. Even Frank E. Channon, arguably
Vinelands most popular fiction writer, is
no longer published. Yet the story of his life
and work is a fascinating tale that sets him
apart from his fellow local authors and that
will be examined next week when this look
at Vinelands legacy of writers continues. I

years of experience working with disad-
vantaged populations within the New
Jersey state government. They launched
this program in 2009, hoping to successfully
replicate a food drive in Philadelphia.
Over the years, they have helped thou-
sands. Each turkey is valued at $20, and
their total contributions have exceeded
$50,000.
Kaganzev states, In 2009, we distrib-
uted 330 turkeys; the number increased to
550 in 2010 and 728 in 2011. We had a huge
turnout in 2012 and gave away 1,184
turkeys. This year, our goal is to distribute
at least 1,000 across three counties."
They sought sponsorships soon after
formulating the original plan. Plevins says,
We created the programs blueprint and
secured sponsorship for the collection
drive from Maria Bottino, owner of three
local ShopRite supermarkets.
The Bottino family will provide turkey
collection centers at their Cumberland
County ShopRite storesWest Landis
Avenue in Vineland, Millville and Upper
Deerfield. Bottinos ShopRite in Sewell,
Gloucester County, will also collect turkeys
and donations. The Ammons family, also
ShopRite owners, will help collect turkeys
and donations at their Mullica Hill store in
Gloucester County.
A fourth Vineland ShopRite sponsor, at
Lincoln and Landis avenues, is also a partici-
pating site. For 2013, Project Thanksgivings
main sponsors are the Bottino ShopRites,
the Ammons ShopRite, Cruisin 92.1FM
WVLT, PNC Bank, Susquehanna Bank and
Vineland Construction Co.
Plevins will oversee Cumberland Countys
campaign; Kaganzev will supervise the
Gloucester and Atlantic County programs.
Project Thanksgiving will again partner
with the Venice Italian Eatery in Pitman.
The restaurant will provide free
Thanksgiving meals to veterans families by
swapping boneless turkey and pies from
Project Thanksgiving for the same value in
whole turkeys.
Saturday, November 23, is the big pro-
motional day for these locations. Cruisin'
92.1 FM will broadcast live from the Venice
Italian Eatery. Two of their DJs will spin
records all day. Several local celebrities will
make special appearances. Al Snyder will
spin the music at the Sewell ShopRite from
11 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Joe Gorgo will spin the
music at the Lincoln ShopRite from 12 p.m.
to 4 p.m.
Special guests appearing at the collec-
tion sites this year include Miss Vineland,
Olivia Cruz; Miss Gloucester County,
Kelcie Klaus and Miss Pitman, Marissa
Sanders. All three will travel to the drop-
off locations throughout the day. Their
schedules include:
Miss Vineland Lincoln Avenue
ShopRite (10 a.m.-10:30 a.m.); Minotola (11
a.m.-11:30 a.m.); Landis Avenue ShopRite (12
p.m.-12:30 p.m.); Venice Italian Eatery (1:30
p.m.-2 p.m.); Mullica Hill ShopRite (2:30-3
p.m); Sewell ShopRite (3:30 p.m.-4 p.m.)
Miss Gloucester County Venice
Italian Eatery (1 p.m.-1:45 p.m.); Mullica
Hill ShopRite (2:15-3 p.m.); Sewell
ShopRite (3:30-4:15 p.m.)
Miss Pitman Sewell ShopRite (11
a.m.-1 p.m.); Venice Italian Eatery (2 p.m.-
2:30 p.m.)
Nigel, the fine-feathered turkey mascot,
will travel all day with Miss Vineland. He
will make his first appearance at the
Minotola Salvation Army location.
Project Thanksgiving will then award
the turkeys to the Salvation Army in
Cumberland and, if necessary, provide a
portion of the proceeds to Atlantic County.
The three Gloucester County drop-off sites
will collect turkeys and cash donations ear-
marked specifically for the Food Bank of
South Jersey.
To qualify, prospective applicants should
contact their local Salvation Army chapter
and complete an application. Captain
Miguel Barriera in Vineland/Millville and
Captain James Stephenson of Bridgeton
lead the local branches.
Myrna Keller, volunteer coordinator for
the Southeast Region, runs the Food Pantry,
located in the Louise Basile Community
Center in Minotola. They will have a red
kettle collection site on November 23. A
second red kettle will remain at the Buena
Borough Administration Building for the
holiday season.
"Since this is our first year, we are hop-
ing and praying for community involve-
ment. We have accepted 50 applications as
of mid-November, with a goal of 75
turkeys. If we cannot meet that figure, we
will receive assistance from the Vineland
Salvation Army office," Keller says.
Kaganzev and Plevins trust these organ-
izations to coordinate the program. Their
low overhead means more money goes to
the cause, says Plevins.
Barriera assumed his position last June
and quickly recognized the communitys
urgency. We are doing all we can because
so many people are in need. By mid-
November, we have 250 confirmed applica-
tions and 70 on a waiting list. People are
calling and stopping by every day, he says.
To participate, bring a turkey, supermar-
ket certificate or donation to these
ShopRite stores and other locations from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, November 23.
Each location in Cumberland and Atlantic
County will have a Salvation Army collec-
tion table. Label the turkeys as Project
Thanksgiving contributions. Nearby, their
trademark red kettles will also accept indi-
vidual donations of cash or checks at
Cumberland County sites. Each location in
Gloucester County will have a Food Bank
of South Jersey table.
The Vineland/Millville Salvation Army
center has freezers in its building, and is
also accepting donations from Monday
through Friday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m., at 733 E.
Chestnut Avenue. Vineland Ice and Storage
is storing extra turkeys at their 6th and
Pear Street location. They have already
received an initial large contribution of 75
turkeys from an outside donor.

Army Case Worker Zulibette Adorno at

All Benefit from Local and
Regional Markets
One very important reason for Congress
to expedite work toward a new Food, Farm
and Jobs Bill is to continue todays rapid
growth in local and regional marketing
opportunities for American agriculture.
From local farmers markets to regional
food hubs, these new opportunities benefit
a wide range of Americans from all walks
of life.
They benefit farmers and ranchers who
are looking to start selling locally or scale
up to regional sales. Farmers markets and
regional food hubs have a particularly posi-
tive impact for small and limited-resource
producers. Sales of local foods are growing
rapidly, creating a multibillion-dollar mar-
ket opportunity for producers.
Local markets also have an impact on
our work to bring folks into the business of
agriculture. As the average age of the
American farmer increases, we need more
new folks on the farm. Local and regional
markets help these new farmerswho
include returning veterans, immigrants and
Wreath-Making Workshop
Join the Cumberland County
Master Gardeners in a Wreath Making
Workshop on Monday, December 2,
from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Rutgers
Cooperative Extension Education
Center.
Learn how to make and decorate a
wreath with natural plant materials,
just in time for the holidays. Join the
Master Gardeners of Cumberland
County as they demonstrate fresh
wreath making. There will be light
refreshments and a festive holiday
spirit! A completed holiday wreath will
be taken home by each participant.
The Extension Education Center is
located at 291 Morton Avenue, Millville
(between Rosenhayn and Carmel)
Bring an armful of evergreens, wire
cutters, gloves and clippers to use in
the preparation of the wreath.
Cost is $15. Pre-registration is nec-
essary for this event and class size is
limited. Please call Pam Burton at
Rutgers Cooperative Extension at 856-
451-2800, ext. 4
more women than ever beforeget started
and sell their product.
American families interested in buying
local benefit as well. The U.S. Department
of Agriculture has helped to create more
than 2,800 new farmers markets that give
families additional options in buying local
foods. In many areas of high poverty, low
food security or limited access to healthy,
fresh produce, farmers markets provide
low-income parents with an important way
to put healthy food on the plate for their
families.
By more than doubling the availability of
EBT technology in farmers marketsand
supporting more than 450 projects to help
farmers markets expand and growUSDA
has focused on amplifying these benefits
for families.
Schools and school districts are working
harder than ever to source their food local-
ly and provide healthy meals at school
ultimately benefiting our young people.
Across the nation, USDA is working with
school districts under our Farm to School
program, helping districts establish rela-
tionships with producers. During the 2011-
2012 school year, school districts purchased
and served more than $350 million in local
foodsand that number is set to grow as
we undertake even more efforts to support
Farm to School projects.
To help show the rapid growth of the
local food market across the nation, USDA
created the Know Your Farmer, Know Your
Food Compassan online tool illustrating
the many places USDA has supported these
opportunities nationwide.
Local and regional marketing opportuni-
ties hold great promise for folks across the
nation. Theyre helping our producers
grow and thrive. Theyre bringing fresh
foods to underserved areas. Theyre help-
ing our kids get good nutrition at school.
USDA intends to continue our record sup-
port for these markets.
Farmers Markets Feature Late
Season Crops
New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture
Douglas H. Fisher reminds consumers to
continue to support New Jersey farmers by
visiting community farmers markets
around the state, many of which run
through the end of November.
You can find an abundance of fruits and
vegetables still available at farmers markets
throughout the state, said Secretary Fisher.
Many of these markets are open through
autumn, which is a great time of year to be
outdoors and enjoy our states bounty while
supporting NewJersey farmers.
New Jersey had 141 community farmers
markets this season, eight of which were
new. These markets feature Garden State
farmers who sell their just-picked produce
directly to consumers. Many accept vouch-
ers from the Senior Farmers Market
Nutrition Program and WIC (Woman
Infant and Children) Farmers Market
Nutrition Program administered by the
Department of Health and Senior Services.
Eating Jersey Fresh fruits, vegetables
and other agricultural products can go a
long way to improving overall health.
Eating locally also is a good choice for pro-
tecting our environment by reducing the
miles a meal travels between farm and fork,
lessening fuel consumption. In addition,
choosing locally grown products helps keep
New Jersey farmers on their land, preserv-
ing the Garden States quality of life.
Many area farmers markets will be open
well into the fall. For complete information
on locations, days and hours of community
farmers markets throughout New Jersey,
visit http://bit.ly/12LncV7.

Senior Farmers Market Nutrition
Program, visit www.nj.gov/agriculture/

Wreaths of Remembrance
Honors Deceased Veterans
Donations and volunteers are being
sought to assist with a project that will
culminate in two moving ceremonies on
Saturday, December 7, both held at the
same time (10 a.m.12 noon), at the
Cumberland County Veterans Cemetery in
Hopewell Township and at the Vineland
Veterans Memorial Home Cemetery.
Rotary Club members, members of mili-
tary service organizations, local high
school Interact Clubs and other volun-
teers will gather as tribute is paid to our
deceased veterans who have sacrificed so
much for the freedoms we too often take
for granted.
To volunteer, call Dave Schad at 856-
692-8282 ext. 13.
Wreaths of Remembrance decorate the
graves of veterans at the Vineland
Veterans Memorial Home Cemetery. The
Vineland Rotary Club is once again spear-
heading Wreaths of Remembrance cere-
monies in Cumberland County on

Thanksgiving Dinner Offered
On Thanksgiving Day, members of
Bethany Grace Community Church will
give thanks by serving a free home-cooked
meal to those who are less fortunate. Last
year, the Church and community volun-
teers served approximately 200 turkey
dinners. The meals will be served in the
Church Fellowship Hall between 11 a.m.
and 1 p.m (or until supplies last).The
meals will be served in a sit-down fashion
and are available for one per person. The
meals include turkey, mashed potatoes,
green beans, stuffing, along with other
sides and dessert.
Anyone who is in need of a
Thanksgiving dinner is welcome to join
us, said Dr. Robin Weinstein, pastor.
Thanksgiving is about giving thanks to
God; therefore, it is fitting that to give
thanks to God, we should serve Him by
serving others.
The Church is still looking for food,
volunteers, and monetary donations for
the Thanksgiving dinner. If you are able to
help, visit www.bethanyinbridgeton.com
or call 856-451-4601.
Bethany Grace Community Church is
located at 31 North Pearl Street,
Bridgeton. Worship services are held
every Sunday at 11 a.m (traditional) and 6
p.m. (contemporary).
Pizza Queen Offers
Thanksgiving Dinner
Pizza Queen is sponsoring a home-
cooked Thanksgiving Dinner, on
Thursday, November 28, 10:30 a.m to 1:30
p.m., at the Carl Arthur Center, Third and
Plum streets, in Vineland. No one will be
turned away as long as there is food to be
eaten. If you know someone who would
benefit from this meal but has no trans-
portation, call 856-364-0895.
VHS All Sports Booster Club
Hall of Fame
The Vineland High School All Sports
Booster Club will be honoring its 2013
Hall of Fame inductees at a fall banquet
planned for Tuesday, November 26, at 6:30
p.m. at the Greenview Inn at Eastlyn Golf
Course, according to Debbie Anderson,
club co-president.
The club is an all-volunteer group of
local residents. Many club members are
parents of athletes who graduated years
ago but still give freely of their time and
energy in support of VHS athletics.
This is the first time we are holding a
fall banquet to honor our Hall of Fame
inductees, said Anderson. We have

School Choice Informaton
Vineland Public Schools is now of
District of Choice, which enables approved
NJ districts to enroll students who do not
reside within their boundaries.
The program increases educational
opportunities for students and their fami-
lies by providing students with school
options outside of their district of resi-
dence and giving parents the power to
select a school program that best serves
their childs individual needs.
We are pleased and proud to be desig-
nated a school district of choice and look
forward to sharing some of the exception-
al educational opportunities offered in our
district, said Dr. Mary Gruccio, superin-
tendent of schools.
Deadline for filing applications and all
supporting materials for the 2014-15 school
year is no later than 4 p.m. on December 2,
2013. Send all applications to: Mr. Nathan
Frey, Assistant Superintendent for
Curriculum/Instruction, 625 Plum Street,
Vineland, NJ 08360. District application
information/documents are available
online:www.vineland.org/pages/Vineland_
Public_Schools/District/School_Choice
According to the Department of
Education, the Public School Choice
Program benefits students and parents, as
well as the choice districts. Choice pro-
grams might have smaller class sizes,
increased instructional time, and a school
culture more conducive to a students suc-
cess in school. Many choice districts have
established specialized and innovative
programs and courses that focus on areas
such as art, music, foreign languages, and
technology, and are open to students who
demonstrate an interest in the special pro-
grams. Opening enrollment to students
outside the district can bring in more stu-
dents interested in taking advantage of
these special programs and courses, allow-
ing both the programs and students to
grow and flourish.

hanksgiving is a great
time for people to
reflect and focus on
what theyre thankful for;
family and friends will gather
around tables full of appetiz-
ing, treasured dishes, and will
spend quality time chatting,
laughing and creating cher-
ished memories. Im personal-
ly thankful, and grateful for
all Gods blessings, and for
loving family and friends that
are such a vital part of my life.
As I sit to dine at our family
Thanksgiving Day dinner, I
will as always, first give
thanks. Happy Thanksgiving!
Homemade Creamed Corn
2 (16 oz.) packages frozen whole ker-
nel corn
1 stick butter
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 - 2 tbs. sugar or natural sugar substi-
tute
Sea salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium
heat. Add frozen corn, stir and continue cook-
ing over medium heat for a few minutes, until
thawed. Add in heavy whipping cream, sugar,
salt and pepper. Continue cooking over medi-
um heat, stirring constantly to prevent cream
from scorching, cook for 10-15 minutes, until
corn is cooked through and sauce thickens. If
desired, after corn has been cooking for 5-10
minutes, crush some of the corn in the skillet
with the back of a ladle, or potato masher, to
create a creamier texture.
Cranberry Orange Sauce
1/2 cup water
Zest and juice of 1 orange
3/4 cup raw sugar or natural sugar
substitute
1 (12 oz.) bag fresh cranberries, rinsed
In a medium saucepan, over medium-high
heat, add the water, orange zest, orange juice,
and sugar, stir until the sugar dissolves. Add
in the cranberries and bring to a boil. Reduce
the heat and simmer until the cranberries
burst, and the sauce thickens, (about 8 - 10
minutes). Cover and cool completely at room
temperature. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, or
overnight, before serving.
Simple Drop Biscuits
1/2 cup water
Zest and juice of 1 orange
3/4 cup raw sugar or natural sugar
substitute
1 (12 oz.) bag fresh cranberries, rinsed
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tbs. non-aluminum baking powder
2 tsp. raw sugar or natural sugar sub-
stitute
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 450 In a large bowl, com-
bine flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tar-
tar and salt. Stir in butter and milk just until
moistened. Drop batter on a lightly greased
cookie sheet by the tablespoonful. Bake until
golden around the edges, about 8 to 12 min-
utes. Serve warm.
As always, Bon Appetit! I

table where she sat with friends and talked
for about 10 minutes.
He ranted about this guy killing the
President, Blowers related. But he didnt
come in like he was going to kill the SOB
or anything.
She said she was in complete and utter
shock upon learning of the attack on JFK
on Friday. Then, on Sunday, she watched
as Ruby shot Oswald on live television.
If it had been someone else, we still
would have been staggered, this way...good
God, she said.
For 50 years, conspiracy theories have
raged about the assassination and then the
assassination of the assassin. The Warren
Commission findings, the definitive official
explanation of the critical events in the
tragedy, did not acknowledge any plot. On
who she thinks killed Kennedy, the older,
but feisty and colorful Blowers replied,
Beats the hell out of me.
During the chaos of the day, she got an
important call. Dad called me and said,
get out of Dallas, they shoot people there,
she said during the wide-ranging and spir-
ited talk we had last week. I said, 'OK,
Dad,' but thought neverI loved Dallas.
Blowers, a Newcastle, Delaware native,
worked for Braniff International Airways
from 1959 until 1965 and flew widely,
including on charters for sports teams and
celebrities. She then became a travel agent,
and worked for years at Vineland Travel
after she moved here in 1970. She also tra-
versed the history of leading restaurants in
the city working as a part-time cocktail
waitress at the White Sparrow, Inn On The
Mall, New York Inn, and Wingate. Finally,
for 25 years, her principal night job was
dealing cards at the Sands Casino Hotel.
Can she still enjoy such a lifestyle? Yes,
we still have fun and party, she claimed.
I just cant drink like I used to because if I
have a few drinks now, Im so tired I have
to go to bed for three days.
BIRTHDAY SPARKS MEMORIES
Julia Kelly remembers November 22,
1963, clearly because it was her 50th
birthday.
Yes, that's right. When they sing Happy
Birthday to Kelly on Friday it will be for
the 100th time. The Vineland native
remembers many things well. She lives in
her home of 60 years. She's active in civic
organizations like Moose and Eagles. She
cooks, cleans, and cans. And, for these two
weeks, she's been going to a lot of birthday
luncheon and dinner parties.
When I met her last Friday, she was
stewing over her electric bill.
What the heck are they trying to do to
me again, she growled. I'll fight it some
more; I'm not dead, yet. They'll find that
out on Monday.
I waited politely for the storm to pass
and it did, as fast as it whipped up. I told
her she was feisty for her age. The diminu-
tive centenarian with the well-coiffed hair
and look of a woman significantly younger
said, I dont feel my age; my secret is
keeping busy.
Her descriptions were fragmented a
few times, but her narratives were whole.
She seemed as healthy as she must have
been 50 years before.
I do have an ailment, she admitted.
I wear glasses.
On that day in 1963, she said she was
home with her stepson, Benny, whose
plane was shot down over South Vietnam
that year, leaving him both physically and
psychologically disabled.
I was right there in that room, ironing,
she nodded toward the doorway. Benny
was in that big chair as we watched a pro-
gram on the satellite (Telstar). I looked up
as he said, Mom, the President was shot.
Just like that. I saw him drop his head and
it hit me hard.
Kelly, as many others did, watched the
riveting coverage.
She said, I stayed with the television
until they stopped talking about it. Benny
must have cried for a week. I was upset for
a long time, having my kid there with me
like that. (Benny is now 81).
I can see it right now, I have quite a
memory.
Kelly has three daughters and two
sons. She was widowed in that same
eventful year. She worked at Kimble Glass,
was a waitress and bartender for many
years, and farmed. She said she raised 150
foster children.
She told me more longevity secrets. She
has a glass of wine at dinner and at bed-
time and sneaks a beer every so often.
She uses honey, never sugar.
We wrapped up. She asked if I liked
cheesecake and I gave a restrained yes.
How about ravioli and old dago-style
sauce? Sweet potato pound cake?
Blueberry jelly? I had to make two trips to
my car.
Nobody ever leaves here without any-
thing, she said.
WOULD IT BE WAR?
Lee Burke was 23 and in the middle of
the woods when JFK was killed.
Ironically, he had just finished tossing
grenadesthe day after hed mastered the
flamethrower. Dont worry, he was in the
Coast Guard and training at Camp Geiger
in North Carolina with U.S. Marines,
practicing defense of the coast against a
possible Cuban invasion. He was part of a
small group picked for training with the
Coastal Forces; it was only two years
since the world-threatening tension of
the Missile Crisis.
(He said of his grenade throwing I
was pretty good at it, actually.)
As the exercises ended, he saw a group
of soldiers crowded around a radio.
It was startling when I learned what
happened, he said. These guys were
mostly drill sergeants and I saw the scared
looks on their faces.
But the shock was quickly followed by
calculation. Was it an attack on the country?
Would they be deployed immediately?
Where? Why?
I was afraid Id be sent right away
because I was with Marines, even though I
was Coast Guard, the Vineland resident
related. The Marines wanted to go to
Cuba and kill people but I didnt want to
go to war.
It gets more interesting. The soldiers
had leave for the weekend and a few
decided to go to Washington for the
funeral.
We wanted to see if we could get
close, Burke said.
They hitchhiked, being in uniform
helping them get there quickly. It also
helped getting past some checkpoints near
Arlington National Cemetery.
We ended up 200 yards away on a high
hill overlooking the solemn procession and
burial, he said. There were dignitaries
from all over the world.
Burke's active duty ended soon after.
I enlisted just to get (my military
service) out of the way, how bad could it
be training in Cape May? he said and
smiled. (The United States Coast Guard
Training Center is there.)
I didn't volunteer for too many things
after that, he added.
OUR OTHER CONTRIBUTORS:
IN THEIR OWN WORDS
THROUGH FIVE-YEAR-OLD EYES
I was in kindergarten at Cunningham
School and I remember they announced it
over the intercom. I remember the teach-
ers being upset. When I got home from
school, I remember my mother crying on
the white leather recliner in our living
room. I remember that I was really sad
(because my mother was). I remember all
of the videos on television and I remem-
ber seeing Walter Cronkite cry while he
announced it. I also remember watching
the funeral on television, at least parts of
it. I remember seeing the picture of John-
John saluting the flag. It seemed like, at
that time, that the funeral lasted for days
and days.

CONSPIRACY LED TO SILENCE
I was 17 years old and heading home
from college in Philadelphia. It was a
beautiful and normal day to start out. At
noon just before the shooting my college
mate and I left campus to meet our other
friends from their colleges in South
Philadelphia. On the way we kept hearing
conversations about a shooting. We were
going through some rough areas of South
Philly, so talk about a shooting wasnt
strange. When we reached his aunts
house she was watching TV and crying.
She told us what had just happened. We
watched TV in disbelief. The news was
still coming in at that point and they had
yet to pronounce the President dead. The
five of us jumped in the car and proceeded
to Atlantic City and home. Ive never
spent an hour like that. Complete quiet,
none of us spoke. We listened to the radio
but all that was on was funeral music. It
was probably one of the saddest days of
my young life.
Then the events of the coming weekend
were even stranger as all the news came
out and then Ruby killing Oswald on live
television.
In my sophomore year of college I did a
study of the assassination and all the evi-
dence that was available. Some disap-
peared and was never seen or heard again.
The bigger scare to me was that many eye-
witnesses died suddenly in the next few
years as did Jack Ruby. I burned my paper
and never really spoke about what I had
learned. It was a conspiracy and there was
more than one shooter. One person that

JFK ASSASSINATION
(Continued from cover)
Betsy Blowers, an airline stewardess based
in Dallas at the time, encountered Jack
Ruby in a bar the night after Kennedy was
killed, just two days before Ruby shot
Oswald.
Julia Kelly turned 50 years old on that
most infamous day; she will be a century
old this Friday, November 22.
was there that day was G. Gordon Liddy,
who turned up later tied to Nixon and the
Watergate scandal. Of course, the pictures
of him on the knoll disappeared, too.
Chuck Carney, Vineland
MRS. BRUNER CRIED
I went to the old Dr. Mennies School,
which was located at Third and Elmer in
Vineland. I had Mrs. Margaret Bruner for
4th grade and I can remember where I
was sitting, Mrs. Bruner being called out
of the room, and coming back in crying
and having to explain to us what hap-
pened. Still very fresh in my memory, it
will never go away!
Bob Carpenter, Vineland
TWELVE BELLS
I was a senior at Villanova and a news-
caster on the school radio station. It was a
Friday. The station came on the air at 2
p.m.; I had been previously assigned to do
the 2 oclock news. We had a UPI teletype
(remember them?) and I was in the news-
room reading through it to assemble my
broadcast. The teletype began ringing. A
coworker told me it was 12 bells, the high-
est urgency for UPI.
The story was from Merriman Smith,
then the lead reporter for UPI. Dallas,
flash, three shots have been fired at the
presidential motorcade. Get off, get off and
stay the hell off. My take on that was
Smith telling others to clear the line for his
dispatch.
We quickly hooked up a microphone to
the newsroom and our faculty adviser took
over and read the unfolding story over the
air to the student body. The death came
over UPI shortly after 2 p.m.
I went outside to get some fresh air; it
was a beautiful fall day. Because I was busy
the impact had not hit me yet. Then I saw
the flag at halfstaff. Then it hit me like a
locomotive. It is a day I will never forget.
Bill Rafferty, Vineland
THAT MOMENT IN TIME
I remember the events on that tragic
day very clearly. I was a student in Mrs.
Greys first grade class at the South
Harrison Township Elementary School in
Gloucester County.
Mrs. Grey left the classroom briefly,
and returned, sobbing into a handkerchief,
and said to the class, The President has
been shot. Class was dismissed shortly
thereafter.
It was a sad moment in time that I'll
never forget.
Jeff Dugan, Millville
NOT NICE TO MAKE UP STORIES
I remember very well where I was the
day he was shot. I was in my fifth grade
classroom at Vine Street School in
Bridgeton. At that time it wasn't unusual
for the teacher to send an unruly boy to
hang with the janitor. This boy, a regu-
lar visitor to the janitor, came running into
the room saying the President had been
shot. The teacher told him it wasnt nice
to make up stories. At that time the princi-
pal came in and confirmed the terrible
story. We all started to cry and shortly
they sent us all home. We spent the rest of
the day watching television and hoping it
wasnt true.
Ruth Devine, Vineland
THE END OF OUR INNOCENCE
I was a 13 year-old 8th grader at East
Paterson Memorial Junior High School;
the tragic events of the afternoon of
November 22, 1963, are deeply etched in
my memory. While sitting in science class
waiting for the school day to end and the
weekend to begin, a female voice
announced over the intercom that
President John F. Kennedy has been
assassinated in Dallas, Texas. After the
initial gasps of shock, teachers and stu-
dents could be heard sobbing, while others
sat in stunned silence. We were asked to
pray silently for several moments then we
were told that we could leave school early
and go home.
Apparently a decision had been made
by school administrators that all classes
would be dismissed ahead of schedule,
probably because everyone was too grief-
stricken to continue on with the routine of
their day. Little did we know then how
much more unrest lay ahead for our young,
nave generation. That day marked the
beginning of the end of our innocence.
Walking home from school that after-
noon, it seemed as though the world
around me had become mute. There were
no words to express the sorrow we were
feeling. As usual, when I got home, my
mom was waiting for me. Mom was born

Halloween Party at Bishop McCarthy
Boys & Girls Club of
Vineland members real-
ly enjoy helping out with
community service
activities. One of their
major goals is to help
the elderly in area nurs-
ing homes and assisted
living facilities. Pictured
here are Club members
and residents of Bishop
McCarthy Residence in
Vineland during a
Halloween Party in
which both members
and residents took part
in some fun activities
including charades,
bowling, the limbo and the hokey pokey. Club members and residents had a terrific time
and the young people stated they cannot wait until their next visit!
YMCA Spooktacular a Sensational Success
The YMCA held its annual celebration of
Halloween with a successful Spooktacular. This
was well attended by kids and their families who
enjoyed trick or treating, a haunted house, an
undersea world, games, and prizes. Healthy snacks were on the menu, as well.
The event offered a chance for families to enjoy the holiday in a happy and
friendly setting.
LEFT: Members of the YMCA of Vineland staff got into the Halloween spirit at the annual
Spooktacular celebration. Shown from left are Jorge Arbelo, as a monster; George
Steinbronn, Jr. as Frankenstein; Selinette Berdoy as Rosie the Riveter; and Kevin Koering
as a Scotsman.
RIGHT: Summer Morello (left) and Aaliyah Robinson, two four-year-olds from Vineland,
had a wonderful evening at the Vineland YMCAs Spooktacular. They were among the
hundreds of families and kids who enjoyed spooky and fun activities during the event.
and raised in Scotland. President Kennedy
was an Irishman. In my moms day, the
Scots and the Irish were in great opposi-
tion to each other. I knew during his elec-
tion in 1960, that a 43 year-old Irish-
Catholic man was not my mothers choice
for President. I wondered what Moms
reaction would be to the news that day.
Upon my arrival, Mom was incon-
solable. She and Mrs. Decker, our next-
door neighbor sat together on the back
stoop, weeping. Seeing Mom and every
adult of my world stricken with such grief
only made the reality of Kennedys murder
all the more disturbing. I remember that
my original weekend plans included
watching the thriller movie Psycho on TV
that Friday evening. As news of the assas-
sination spread around the globe, all regu-
larly scheduled TV programs were pre-
empted. Throughout the weekend, the
three television networks aired continuous
live coverage of Kennedys funeral....
Before November 22, 1963, Texas was
no more to me than one of the 50 states
located at the southern tip on the center of
the map of our country, capital city Austin.
The pictures in my school geography book
were of Texans herding cattle and wearing
cool hats. For a period of time after the
assassination, wanting to lay blame, some
Americans reviled Texans and held them
responsible for our presidents murder.
...Over the past 50 years, countless the-
ories have been reported. As for me, I
doubt I will ever really know the answers
to these questions.
Adrienne Possenti, Vineland
THE PREMONITION
I was in my sixth grade classroom at
Cunningham School in Vineland on the
morning of that day. It was a normal
school day a few days before the
Thanksgiving holiday. Around 10:30 that
morning we were finishing our math les-
son when I stated to get a strange feeling
like I had never had before. I felt like I
was becoming ill and got a feeling that I
wanted to go home. This was very unusual
for me as I rarely missed a day of school
and had perfect attendance several years.
I just had a feeling I wanted to get home.
My grandfather picked me up around
11:30 and took me home as we only had
one car and my dad couldnt leave work.
Arriving home I still felt strange and
uneasy. My mother had me lie down on
the sofa and had the television on with no
volume. Suddenly, I saw a lot of unusual
activity on the screen with reporters I
usually only saw at night. There, the story
of President Kennedys assassination
unfolded to the shock of my mother and
me. This event was very troubling for me
as an 11-year-old as I tried to comprehend
why this young President had to lose his
life. History was obviously changed forev-
er. I still wonder today if I had a premoni-
tion to this event as I have never quite had
the feeling of that day again. It was one of
the strangest days of my life and one of
the most upsetting.
Wade Anastor, Vineland
RADIO INTERRUPTION
I was a 29-year-old lawyer. I had music
on the radio as I always did. A client I was
meeting with told me the President had
just been shot. But nothing interrupted my
music broadcast, so I asked him if he was
sureI didnt believe it. Shortly, though,
the radio cut to the dramatic and terrible
bulletins and I got very, very shaky.
By Sunday, I was saturated with the
news and I had Eagles tickets, so I went.
The NFL was resoundingly criticized for
playing its game schedule.
Bennett Bardfeld, Vineland
I ONLY REMEMBER THE SOUND
It was mid-afternoon in Joe Seibert's
effective speech class of my sophomore
year in Vineland High School, just 19 days
before my 16th birthday and in my head I
was planning my party. Our principal, Mr.
Gerald Barry, came on the intercom to
announce to the students and faculty that
our President had been assassinated in
Dallas and pronounced dead. There was
absolute silence. Then our much-loved
teacher put his head in his hands and
sobbed. I think most everyone cried with
him. I don't remember leaving school that
day though, of course, I did. I don't
remember the bus ride home with my fel-
low sophomore, junior and senior class-
mates though there must have been a bus
ride home. I have no recollection of the
dinner table conversation with my parents
that night, though surely such horrific
news was discussed. I only remember the
sound of Joe Seibert's crying that day. I'll
never forget it.
Andrea Mancini Nunberg,
Vineland Class of '66

Hundreds Gather to Honor Memory of Jermire Lowery
Hundreds of family, friends and community members gathered at the Third
Street recreation area last Thursday night to honor the life and memory of
Jermire Lowery.
The VHS 9th grader, 14, was killed in a car crash Monday evening. Classmates
and teammates from Jermire's baseball team were quick to plan a memorial at
the field where Jermire spent so much of his time.
Jermire, described as goofy, charismatic and always with a smile, clearly
touched the lives of many peopleeven those who did not know him. Many who
gathered wore baby blue clothingthe same color as the Cobras, Jermire's base-
ball teamor green clothing, his favorite color.
There were several dedications for Jermire throughout the memorial. Large
poster boards and handmade signs bearing his picture were spread throughout
gathering area; many were available for mourners to sign goodbye wishes to
their friend. Several classmates sang songs dedicated to his memory. Each base
on the baseball diamond had a memorial set up in his honor.
Gatherers held candles as they reflected on the type of person Jermire was,
and how much joy he brought into the world. Jermire's teammates led the eulo-
gies about their friend, and tears flowed freely.
Several of the "team moms" gathered and offered support to Jermire's team-
mates.
"If you need to talk, if you're feeling down, if you're feeling angry, call us and
we will help," Tami Harold said.
A collection was also taken to help the family with funeral expenses.
Superintendent Mary Gruccio offered her condolences on behalf of the
Vineland Public School district.
"I want to offer my deepest and most heartfelt sympathies for [all those affect-
ed]." She also encouraged students and family members to seek help if needed,
and that the district would offer support in any way they could.
Mourners were urged to wear their seatbelts and practice safe driving.
Prior to the ceremonys end, all current and former teammates of Jermire
were asked to gather at second base, and have a private reflection for their
friend. As the memorial ended, the group released green and blue balloons into
the sky.

Motorsports Park Partners
with PADD To Eliminate
Distracted Driving
New Jersey Motorsports Park
announced recently that it will officially
partner and become part of People against
Distracted Drivings campaign to eliminate
texting and driving.
Nikki Kellenyi was the rear passenger of
a vehicle involved in a 2012 accident in
Washington Township, N.J. The driver,
who survived, was suspected of using a cell
phone at the time of the crash. Kellenyi, 18,
was killed.
In the 18 months since, Nikkis family
and a large community of friends and sup-
porters have come together to carry on a
campaign, in Nikkis memory, to call atten-
tion to, and end, distracted drivingPeople
against Distracted Driving.
According to statistics provided by
PADD, 23 percent of all motor vehicle acci-
dents (1.3 million crashes) involved cell
phones. In addition, text messaging while
driving makes an accident 23 times more
likely, with the longest eyes-off-the-road
time of all distracted driving activities.
Even more concerning, 77 percent of young
adults are very or somewhat confident that
they can safely text while driving.
NJMPs partnership with PADDs
Dont Text and Drive campaign will
include signage at the 500-acre Millville
facility, promotional activities, and visibility
at each of the Parks major spectator events
in 2014.
New Jersey Motorsports Park is proud
to partner with People against Distracted
Drivings campaigns, said Brad Scott,
NJMP general manager/COO. We vow to
do everything we can to spread Nikki
Kellenyis story, in addition to educating
our participants, staff, and fans about the
dangers of distracted driving. We need to
raise greater awareness to this very impor-
tant issue.
Mike Kellenyi, Nikkis father, visited the
Park in late October to discuss the program
and its current campaigns.
I know that I can speak for Nikki, my
wife Gina, and my beautiful daughter
Kristen and all of PADD to say that we are
truly honored to be partnered with NJMP.
With PADDs office not far from NJMP and
the relationship we now share to end the
needless deaths and injuries due to dis-
tracted driving, I think this is an awesome
approach to battle this new epidemic,
Kellenyi said.
The entire NJMP organization is
behind our mission and we look forward to
working with them to save lives all over the
world.
Additional details regarding promotion-
al activities and events will be jointly com-
municated by New Jersey Motorsports
Park and PADD.

Health Department Announces
Poster Contest Winners
The Vineland Health Department, in
conjunction with the Vineland Food Safety
Council, have announced the winners of
the 2014 Serving Safe Food poster contest.
The winning posters will be featured in the
Health Departments 2014 Food Safety
Calendar which will be distributed to over
400 retail food establishments throughout
the city. In addition to three copies of the
printed calendar, the 12 winners will also
each receive a $50 Visa Gift Card and a
Certificate of Congratulations from the
Mayors Office.
According to Principal Registered
Environmental Health Specialist Jeanne
Garbarino, We had over 230 entries this
year, and the quality of the work was very
high. The judges from the Vineland Food
Safety Council and Vineland Health
Department were looking for creativity
through the integration of words and art,
originality, and accuracy. Age groups were
assigned specific topics which included the
importance of hand washing when han-
dling food, minimum cooking tempera-
tures, food temperature requirements for
hot and cold holding, cooling potentially
hazardous foods, and specific foodborne ill-
nesses.
This contest is a wonderful way for the
children to have a positive effect on every-
ones health and the future, said Food
Safety Council Judge Nick Panzini, of
Lucas Pizza in the Cumberland Mall. As a
judge, I know we were all excited to see
what young minds can create, and how it
might inspire us. It was a very difficult
decision, but after all the votes were tallied
this years winners include:
Amari Mayas, 1st Grade/Dlppolito,
Handwashing
Scott Craig, 6th Grade/Wallace,
Cooking
Nayeli Merino, 7th Grade/Rossi, Cold
holding
Simi Adenugba, 7th Grade/Rossi,

We are so proud of the work the
Vineland Health Department does in part-
nership with our local schools to promote
food safety in the community," said Mayor
Ruben Bermudez. I know Director Jones
and his staff take food safety education and
training very seriously in order to ensure
the health and well-being of our residents.
Programs like this are fun and provide a
creative opportunity for students to learn
about basic food safety concepts. Thank
you to the members of the Food Safety
Council for taking time out of your busy
schedules to help judge the contest, and
congratulations to all of the students who
participated.
The students and their winning posters
will be recognized in an award ceremony
on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 at 6:00pm
in Vineland City Hall which is located at
640 E. Wood Street. The ceremony will be
held in City Council Chambers located on
the second floor, and will be the first item
of business for Council that evening.
The Health Department works to pro-
mote, protect, and improve the health of all
Vineland residents by raising public aware-
ness of local health issues; tracking health
trends so that resources can be focused on
the most important concerns of our resi-
dents; stopping the spread of disease
through education and early detection; and
providing services, activities, and programs
that help our residents stay well. The
Department recently received national
recognition from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration as the first health agency in
the United States to complete the FDAs
Voluntary National Retail Food Regulatory
Program Standards.

Ellison Students at Academic Overnight
At The Ellison School,
teachers take learning to new
heightsboth in and out of
the classroom. Recently,
Upper School students gained
new leadership and teamwork
skills, as well as self confi-
dence from more 20-feet in
the air as they navigated a full
ropes course at the Ellison's
Annual Upper School
Academic Excursion. It was
amazing seeing students who
didn't think they could even manage the initial
climb up make it through the entire course,"
says Caroline Chapman, Head of School. "It
was also wonderful watching and listening to
the other students cheer on their friends. The
camaraderie was overwhelming and the kids
exuded self confidence.
This year's Academic Excursion took place at
Tall Pines Day Camp in Williamstown. While
there, students also participated in a number of
exercises and games designed to build leader-
ship and teamwork skills. They also tackled
two climbing courses and spent time boating in
a nearby pond. Students stayed the night and
continued activities in the morning before
returning to school. When completing a reflec-
tion assignment after the trip, Eighth Grader,
Jonah Hammerstedt said, "We learned life lessons. On the ropes course, we
were taught how to help someone new and give advice and encouragement by
waiting for them at checkpoints. We can use that in everyday life, like in school
when helping in math, or at home by helping a family member do something
they have never done."
