TAVEL (Coutinued from page 1).

Within the science subjec~s. biol­ogy and sclC:m:c theory arc most enjoyable· to Tavel. Thuugh she \o"alucs hC:r education in the SCI­

ences and is pleased· with the op-. ,portunity this training gives her to

rourid out her education. Tavel is particularly interested in history.

~ Englisi',l. and psychology. A love foc literature was instilled in her by her lOth-grade English teacher;,· Mr. Manion. Manion. who at one time was a sponsor of ~ooscvelfs newspaper, makes English .. so fun and interesting," and shows. genuine concern for his students. to whom he often dispenses "pearls of wisdom." Tave1 will· probably pursue a col­lege degree in psychology and also_ hopes t_o remain involved in journalism by working on her college newspc;tper.

In addition to school commit· meRts •. Tavel is involved in her church youth group, where she participates in numerous commu-· nity service projects, and is active in a local 4-H group, in which she won the Maryland Clover A~ard for leadership_. She also holds a pan time job in a local bookstore.

Managing school, outside ac­tivities, and a job, Tavel also con­~iders it essential to spend ad­equate time with friends and fam­ily. Her younger sister,· June, is ••one of (herl best friends ... and is a fantastiC, creative writer." Tavel's mother, Diane Lee, also showed an interest in writing while· a high school student and Was· feisty eilough to write an article critical of her school in the local newspaper. raising the ire .of her school principal. Another family member with a literary in­fluence is Tavel's Aunt Laur-a, who writes novels. ·

Moving to Greeilhelt When Tavel moved to

Greenbelt as a high school fresh­man. it was "'like coming to a different planet - like_ the SO's or something," she said. ..You can ride your bike to the store. or to the movie theater," a simple

For Tavel, an appreciation for­Grecnhelt extends beyond its live­able design to include a thankful awareness of the philosophy of Greenbelt's visionaries, the Roosevelts. The May 29. 1997 issue of "The Raider Review·· featured an article on the 21st an­nual Elean<ir Roosevelt Day. 11le event attracted numerous distin~ guished· speakers, and also fea­tured the views of five ERHS stu­dents, who spoke on the Four Freedoms enumerated by Franklin D.

KONRAD HERLING (7-A ON THE BALLOT)

TO THE CITY COUNCIL

,._.,...,_ An appreciation of the past ...

A vision for the Future see a more unified Greenbelt. I see a city

which has developed a consensus on Greenbelt planning principles from' which to lobby the County as It prepares Its Area Master Plan for 2000. From these principles. I envision the following changes:

City buses will take people more efficiently around town. Parcels I and 2 wHI be preserved In perpetuity but then so will Greenbriar Park and the woodlands of Schrom t1ills Park.

I see a safer Greenbelt due to a greater pollee presence in Greenbelt East and Springhill Lake and greater use of connict resolution. Our city will have more ballfields. but most of them will be located in under-served Springhill Lake.

Roosevelt Center will be revitalized, Improved lighting and security,· more live programming and the New Deal Cafe l!Jc Bookstore will help bring the community together in "downtown Greenbelt.·· We will lobby successfully to ·increase library hours and will have enhanced, with major support from the private sector, the performing and visual arts programs.

,finally, our advisory boards and ornanizations will reflect. to a wcater degree. the changing divcrsi'ty of ou·r community. It i~ a city where together we can improve the quality of our

lives.

It's the Law: BucldeUp-Turn on Lights As of Ocrober I. Maryland

state and loca-l police may ticket drivers and passengers of vehicles for not wearing a seat belt, without any other viola­tion. as a .. primary enforce­ment"" violation. The new wiper/headlight law, a second­ary violation. also took effect October 1. Drivers must now turn on their headlights during inclement wearher whenever they turn on their wi_ndshield wipers

The fine for violati-ng . both the safety belt and wiper/head­light law is $25. lnfonnation about the new laws is available by caJling the Maryland Com­mittee for Safety Belt Use at (410) 787-5893 and the Motor Vehicle Administration at (410) 768-7386. •

Maryland's first safety bell law was enacted as a secondary enforcement statute in July 19R6. Safety advocates. along wtth Sen~toi· Ida Ruben and Delegate Joanne Benson, have long advocated for a primary enforcement law, which was passed .hy the Maryland Legis­lature thts spring. Go'r"ernor Parri~ Glendening signed the bill into law on May K. He signed the new wiper/headlight law May 29.

To help educate drivers about the new safety helt law, the Governor unveiled an out­reach campaign entitled "To­gether. we're ma~ing sure il clicks in ~aryland."

"As parents. grandparent:-. and caregivers each of us needs to lead by e"amplc and buckle up." ·said Governor Glendening. '"Mal")liland has one of the best child passenger safety laws in

the country. But, unless We set rhe example for our children to follow, we cannot expect them to _form this lifesavin~ habit."

Board of Education Bears ·ERRS· Deserves Better

by Mary Moiea A small, but dedicated, group

of·parents participated in a Prince George·s County Board of Educa­lion· hearing on September 24 al

·Eleanor Roosevelt. This hearing was one of three meetings in vari­ouS sections of the county called by Board of Education Superinlen­dent Dr. Jerom~ Clark lo seek early input 10 lhc school syslems' 1998-99 budget process. _Dr. Oark was not present at rhe ~.meeri ng which was chaired by Louise Waynani. deputy superintendent ctnd James W. Beall. chief divi~ sional administrator, Budget, Fi~ nance and Management. Both Dr. Gerald Boarman. chief educational admlnistndor of the ERHS cluster of ~chools, and Dean Michael Reidy. ERHS. were in the audi­ence-.

There were approximately a doien · speakers with .four of them representing ERHS parents and or­ganiza.tions. In addition, there were parents pre~nting tesrimony from schools in Laurel and Calveri.on, among other locales. No other Greenbelt area schools were represented. Roosev.elt Was

represented by lhe Parent, Teach­ers. and Sludent Association (PTSA). irs Polilical Action Com­mittee, as well as by individual parents.

Naocy Boardman. Chair, ERHS PTSA Poli,ical Action Committee, reminded the Board of Education that the committee had spoken la-;t year before ·the Board of Educa­tion. the· Schoo( Board, the county executive, and the county council. The . same four major needs ad­dressed la.,t year are still pertinent tssucs. lbe issues are:

1. Significant salary ir\cre~.es for teachers this year arc needed. lllere has been no cost of living increase since 1995 and budgeting $20 million fot raisCs this year is

a top priority. 2. ERHS reaching sraff contin­

ues to be overworked. Roosevelt teachers are respOnsible for six classes a day where te~hers at other schools are responsible for five classes. To remedy this. ERHS needs anolhcr 23 reaching positions, but Boanlman asked. for a minimum of five for the current school year.

3. 'The final increment of fund­iQg for lhe Comprehensive School Initiative needS to be fully funded. Two-lhirds of ·ERHS students are

. in lhe comprehensive program and all students take some comprehen­siVe courses~ so this funding af­fecrs all srudenrs.

4. There will be a new Sci­ence and Technology school in the Ji=ounty. and the ERHS pai-ents want to be assured that both Oxen Hill and ·ERHS have the ~arne state-of-the-art programs~ and equipment as the new school:

Boardman mentioned an •addi­tional area lhal. she has a personal interest in - character education. She recommended lhar ~ Board of Education investigate a program in character education in tl:le c9unty schools.

Luong Vinh 1bc, PTSA mem­ber and parent, also spoke reiterat­ing the four topics that Boardman had emphasized. Timothy· Tilghman, an ERHS parent. was the final speaker of the night. In addition to topics already dis· c4SSC<f, 'Tilghman recounted stories of studcntc,; with no lockers, classes in temporary buildings. and stu­dents eating lunch shonly aher · breakfast or late .in the afternoon bectruse the cafeteria cannot ac­commod:ite the student population.

Tilghman stressed that ERHS deserves to be treated better in the budget .because· it gives lhc county a good return on its investment. One quarter of scholarship dollars

II

_earned by the county'S class of 1997 were earned by Rooseveh studentS. ERHS SAT scores were the highest in the county, well above the county and national av­erages. Counlering a possible ol>­jection that too much money can­not be dedicated to a District 2 school, Tilghman indicated lhat 60 percent of students come from be­yond the District 2 boundaries. ••Ralher than take a buck away from Roosevelt. why nor make lhe rest of our schools look like Roosevelt;• he concluded

·cANDIDATES' RESPONSES GCC Annual Meeting Ta Be Held Oct. 25

(Continued from page 1)

• We exPand our Police B'i,-cycle Patrol program, !

• We get our own planning{ and zoning authorily.

• City services and facilities are equitably distributed,

• All of our citizens can · work toge~her to achieve these

goals. and many more. Thomas X. Wbite

It is easy to describe a vi­sion .. ·but difficult to make it happen_ Greenbelt, in many wa:ys, is a city of vision, con­sidering its origin as a planned community· arid a bold social experiment. Because we value Greenbelt's past, we think more of our futu(e, with a view. to preserve the legacy.

My vision for Greenbelt is pf a safe. economically healthy, tolorant, caring. aesthetically pleasing, environmentally friendly a.:1d suslainable city for the 21st century.

To realize that vision I want to assure thai City Council in­vests in a well considered stra­tegic plan for ach"ieving com­munity-wide goals. That plan ~hould incl.ude an emphasis on programs for Greenbelt's young peOple~ continue strong·. unified efforts to protect Greenbelt from Undesirable (dense) devel­opmCnt and: ill-conceived trans­portation projects;· preserve the

. remaining green belt; and have these and other worthy pro­grams st~pported by a sound budget .arid fiscal policy. Re­·elect Tom White!

Judith F. Davis My vision for Greenbelt's

future is the same .as when I first. ran for Council in 1993. I take pride in being part of a

community that works together to solve whatever pr'oblems come its way. Problems may become more daunting, but they will not be insurmountable if our citizens question, speak up, and actively panicipate. For 60 ye3rs, Greenbelters have met crises with energy and persever­ance. That is our modeL

To encourage this, I will continue my attempts to unify the various neighborhoods and ensure that each is tre3ted equi­tably. Linking them with trails and bike lanes. having work sessions in areas other thah Historic Greenbelt, funding rec­reation programs for all ages. and encouraging a greater di­versity of citizens to volunteer fOr City committees are some of my goals~ Greenbelt is our city, belonging to all of us. and will continue to be so if ·we all work together.

Edward V.J. Potens My goal for Greenbelt has

alWays been to provide our citi­zens with a safe and sound city gov(;~ :1ment. My vision renects much of the Greenbelt commu­nity consensus developed over the years. ·

• Continue to fosler· the ide­als and quality of life envi­sioned in the planned commu­nity c.oncept which est<l:~ishcd Greenbelt in 1937; , 1\. .

• Provide a .higber-tevel of service in an cit)' funct-ions than does the county;

• Become known as one of the safesl locations in the metro area:

• Encourage and welcome diversity as. an integra·ted, multi-cultural community;

• Protect the legacy of the "green belt." through acquiring and protecting open space;

• Protect sensitive environ­mental areas within and around our city; and

• Maintain tax rates at the lowest possiele levels consis­tent with community needs,

I ·am cOmmitted to provid­ing strong leaders~ip, within 1he Greenbelt community con­sensus. toward dynamic, pro­gressive policies which ad­vance Greenbelt's stalus as one of Ameri-ca's model cities.

KoDrad Herllec My vision is derived; from a

set of Core prio<:iples. prin- ~ ciples which I believe are con­sistent with our tQwn's orjginal planning princ.iples which we celebrate this year. Simply put, they are (l) safe and easy access via from and to our educatio!lal, recreat10nal, ~.:om­mercial. civic and residential areas; (2) a commitment to preserving our environment; (3) ·equitable distrihutron of services throughout town; (4) Safe neighborhoods; ( 5) a con­tinued commitment to enhance our recreational and cultural programming, as well as main­taining and enhandng library services; (6) a meaningful out­reach program 'o all of our citizens, and particularly our newcomers. which w'ould en­courage their involvement with our organizations and advisory boards; and (7) pursuing the skills and funds from our htlsi­ness community to assist the city in funding larger projects. ~.g., establishing an Jntra-city transportation system.

A Greenbelt Gardener by - Rllubarb

Tile mild wealher of September and early October makes !his one of the finest times of the year to be outside and in the garden. The sense that all .the dehght of the summer garden "NiU soon be swept away makes dus time of year aJI the more poognant. The first frost will come within weeks and kill all the annual plants. So enjoy the garden while it sull looks some~ whal like n did dUnng the sum­mer.

The cooler days may bring some plants m(o a last flush of produce. enough to harvest for awhale yet. Annual tlowers will continue blooming till frost kiJis them and some w1ll took good right up unril the end.

The amount of rainfall is still running below average despite the . recent ramy days. So keep an eye on ptant.<> thaf dry out quickly. such as potted plants or those planted in dry and hot spots. Wa­ter regularl)' those plants planled dtmng the last year !hal will be a ·permanent fi~ture to the yard. Many trecs and shrubs can stand a Ia of dryness. but all plants need extTa care whea they are young.

Overall this past groWing sea­son had some good points to it, especially overall low humidity and few hot spells. There seemed 10 be less tomato diseases affecting

son>e local gardens. for example. and some fk>wen bloomed longer than usual. In· my garden phlo:t and black-eyed-susans are still in bi<X>m this late in the season.

The real drawback of this year was the drought. This meant de­creased production of both veg­etables and flowers. Also more watering than usual had to be done. We11, every year is different and it is inlercstmg to see how plants rest><>nd. For el(ample. plants thar: dKI well in t:his years' drought condilions are good candi­dates for a low mamtenance gar­den any year. House plants that spent the ·summer outside should be brought inside during the ne:~tt

weeks. lbese warmth loving plants do not like the enol nights. Do a !ittle preventive maintenance by checking for iflSel:L'i before bring­ing them inside. Check leaves for bugs. wipe off dirt, and remo'\'e weeds and debns. To get rid of bugs in the soil I briefly S~>bmerge the pot in a bucket of dean w~ water (about ten mmules) to above

·the soi1 line. Tile hugs will crawl out to the surface of the ~ and lower leaves and stems. When the pot is lifted oul of the water quickly pick off the bugs_ before they have a chance to CTa'\'1 back in the pot. I ~cldom find more than the occaswnal ant, slug or mealy bug crawling 001 of the pot.
