"It's great to be back here and see this theater restored to its original glory," said Freeholder Rick Proctor at a walkthrough for the media last week. Proctor is a life-long resident of Rahway who recalled spending Saturday afternoons watching cartoons at the venue as a boy. "This theater will be a regional hub for enter- tainment. We all take great pride in the arts that are going to be housed in this facility." Built in 1928, the theater's 1,300-seat auditorium still boasts Photo By Barbara Kokkalis an ornate interior in the classic old-Hollywood style.

THE PROGRESS WWW.LOCALSOURCE.COM THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 2008 — PAGE 5 MLK vandalism Main attraction met with peace By John O’Reilly Staff Writer RAHWAY — Vandals who destroyed a wreath laid at the Martin Luther King memorial have not broken the spirit of celebrants. A $150 wreath and frame left at the memorial off East Milton Avenue was ripped apart after it was placed at the site by marchers during the Martin Luther King Day celebration around 10 a.m. on Jan. 21. Since then, some community members have chosen to handle the act with the same grace and peace King preached about. NAACP president Shirley Palmer, who helped coordinate the event with the city, said she is not mad. “They are cowards. I feel sorry for them,” Palmer said. She said Black History Month celebrations were not disrupted by the crimi- nal act. “They didn’t stop anything,” said Palmer. The incident, which was not reported to the Rahway Police Department, was not a first for the city. Celebrants have been carrying on the wreath laying tradition for 20 years. A few years ago, another wreath was vandalized. Palmer said she reported that crime to police. This time, she thought a lack of attention on the vandals would put the focus where it belonged: the “goodness” of the day. “We realized the vandals were there, but they were ignored. The little they did was overridden by highlighting good people,” said Palmer. The ceremony is extremely popular in the city, drawing an estimated 200 marchers last year. Rahway’s Fourth Ward Councilman, David Brown, said he was unaware of the vandalism situation, but was disappointed to see something like that happen in the city, whether it was done by children or adults. Mrs. Bradley’s third-grade class at Madison School, Rahway, recently studied magnetism in a three-part lesson. Back “Its very disappointing...when something like that happens, especially when row from left: Matthew Pereira and Jessica Colon. Front row from left: Brandon Kennedy and Elise Davis. the emphasis is on...King and when people are working together,” he said. Brown discussed the possibility of working with authorities to get extra police patrols around the area next year. Rahway police Capt. John Grahill said acts of vandalism do occur in the city, but “not very often.” “It’s not better or worse than anywhere else,” he said. www.eNorthfield.com He noted that Brown’s plan is feasible. “Obviously we can’t be everywhere at once, but we can make the location priority for patrol to check,” said Grahill.
