However, many county residents, particularly elderly and disabled individuals, lack a means of transportation for non- emergency medical appointments., according to Laurie Foltman, manager of the Middlesex County branch of the vivei trie American Red Cross.

"We do the whole corridor down to Philadelphia," she said.

NBTHS swimmers off to good start

Brunswick Township High School swimming coach Gregg Anderson has a talent- ed squad returning for 1997-98. The girls especially have considerable depth. So far, the Raider boys and girls teams are 2-0 — both teams defeated Old Bridge, while the boys also beat Montgomery and the girls topped Somerville. "I lost some key swimmers, in particular Jen Williston, our state champion who is now competing for the University of Miami," Anderson said. "I'm not sure if we're as strong as we were last year, until we've faced some of the tough competition." North Brunswick faces some stiff opponents this week, with meets scheduled with Bridgcwater-Raritan today and Hamilton High School East in Trenton tomorrow. The Raider girls are led by senior captains Maura Dowgin, who swims the butterfly and the distance relays, and Njcole Hobor, a sprinter. Another key swimmer is junior Kaitie Colligah, a record holder in two relays and two individual events. "She's a real utility swimmer, extremely valuable," Anderson said.
